MOUNTING THE RECEIVER
The receiver should be mounted in an easily
accessible position.
IMPORTANT:
Refer to the document case (located on
the inside of the receiver cover) in the receiver for
receiver layout instructions.
NOTE:
The maximum allowed current for the relay
contacts is 8 amps with AC. If a higher current is
necessary, the appropriate relays must be installed in
the electrical system of the machine.
1. Determine the receiver position.
2. If the receiver is to be mounted inside a control
panel or other enclosure, an external antenna is
required.
3. Be sure there is clearance for connectors and
components that need to be wired.
4. Drill holes into the mounting surface according to
the dimensions shown.
5. Insert the mounting screws through the holes in
the receiver housing and tighten into the
mounting surface.
6. Please refer to the appropriate illustration for
mounting dimensions. Contact Hetronic for more
information or if you have questions.
7. Lay out the wire runs. Use #16 AWG (size 1.5
mm
2
metric) minimum for power wiring.
8. If the receiver includes an attached antenna,
mount the receiver so that the antenna points
straight up. The area around the antenna should
be free of obstructions, especially metal.
The receiver wiring is critical for proper system
operation. Make all connections with good quality
contacts or solder joints to ensure proper electrical
contact.
Supply voltage and ground wiring are crucial and must
be connected to reliable connecting circuitry. Do not
use a chassis ground for this equipment. The ground
wire must be connected directly to the crane/machine’s
ground.
The output control signals to controls should be routed
separately from any wiring that could produce transient
voltage interference. Interference or "induced voltage
spikes" could cause erratic performance of the
controls.
