3. Ensure the selected location has adequate space to
accommodate the receiver (refer to Fig. 19 on page 28). If an
external antenna is used, always locate the receiver where the
antenna is free from any obstacles from all directions to avoid
the
possibility of antenna damage (refer to diagram at right).
4. When installing an external antenna you must connect the SMA
jack
located inside the receiver and make sure to set the jumper to
“EXT” position (refer to diagram below).
5. For better reception, make sure the receiver is in an upright position.
6. Drill two holes (10mm in diameter) on the control panel or location where the receiver is to be
installed (refer to Fig. 19 on page 28).
7. Make sure the two bolts are tightened after installation.
8. For system wiring please refer to page 27.
D. System Testing
1.
Turn on the power source to the receiver and test the MAIN relay output by pressing the red
emergency stop button and observe that it properly opens and closes the mainline disconnect
contactor.
2.
Test the operation of each function to ensure it corresponds to the transmitter direction labels
or the pendant it is replacing.
3. Test the limit switches (if any) to see if they are working properly.
4. If your new remote control is replacing an existing pendant, make sure it is completely
disconnected and placed in a safe location to prevent unwanted control commands.
