5. In case of an emergency, pressing down the red emergency stop button will immediately
disconnect the receiver MAIN as well as the transmitter power. To resume operation,
rotate the red button clockwise or counterclockwise until it pops up. Then, rotate the power
key switch to the START position for up to 2 seconds to resume operation (depending on
JP3 setting;
see Section 4.2.5 on page 48
). Please note that every time you turn the
transmitter power off and back on again, or after resetting the emergency stop button, all
pushbutton functions will be locked to avoid any unintentional controls. For safety,
initiating the START command after turning on the transmitter power or after resetting the
emergency stop button is strictly required.
6. After 1 minute of inactivity, the receiver MAIN will be disconnected temporarily. To resume
operation, rotate the power key to the START position (depending on JP3 setting;
see
Section 4.2.5 on page 48
). Refer to the Continuous Transmitting Time Adjustment setting
in
Section 4.1.2 on page 25
if this 1-minute inactivity time is not sufficient for your
application. Also, the receiver MAIN will be disconnected temporarily when the receiver
encounters strong radio interference or when the operator is controlling the crane or
equipment beyond the transmitting range.
7. Turn off the transmitter power by rotating the power key counterclockwise to the OFF
position. It will disconnect the transmitter power and the receiver MAIN altogether.
Continue to turn it counterclockwise to release the key.
