AUTEC LIUDJM005_eng-00 24 8.7 Battery The Dynamic+ series' Transmitting Units can only be powered by Autec rechargeable batteries. For any warnings and instructions regarding the battery, see "Part E" in the Instruction Manual. 8.7.1 Battery insertion To insert the battery, proceed as follows:
1. Push the battery towards the contacts of the Transmitting Unit. 2. Insert the battery in its housing. The battery slides easily into place and ensures that the positive (+) and negative
(-) poles are correctly connected only if it is inserted with the plate facing its housing, so that the battery's contacts match the Transmitting Unit's contacts. LIUDJM005_eng-00 AUTEC 25 8.7.2 Battery removal To remove the battery, proceed as follows:
1. Push the battery towards the contacts of the Transmitting Unit. 2. Remove the battery from its housing. When the Transmitting Unit is not in use, remove the battery if possible. 8.8 ID internal tx memory The ID internal tx memory is a key containing the address that is used to code messages exchanged between the Transmitting Unit and the Receiving Unit. This key, if present, is inside the Transmitting Unit. The ID internal tx memory is present in the Transmitting Unit when this has a mechanical key, and not the Key ID 0-1, as a power keyswitch (see paragraph 8.1). 8.9 Starting up the Radio Remote Control Starting up the Radio Remote Control means enabling it to send commands and operate the Machine. The Radio Remote Control start up is protected by a power keyswitch to prevent unauthorised use of the Machine. To activate the Radio Remote Control it is necessary to insert the power keyswitch as described in the following procedure. Perform the following procedure to start the Radio Remote Control:
1. Power on the Receiving Unit respecting the voltage limits provided in the technical data (see
"Part D" of the Manual). The POWER LED illuminates. 2. Insert a fully charged battery in the Transmitting Unit (see paragraph 8.7.1). 3. Insert the power keyswitch in the Transmitting Unit (see paragraph 8.1). 4. In a Take & Release Radio Remote Control, activate the TAKE command and hold it active until the Receiving Unit's seven-segment displays show the following signal: "---1" or "---2". 5. Press the START pushbutton and hold it down until the green LED repeats one of the following sequences: one or two blinks and a pause. If the red LED illuminates, refer to chapter 11. When the green LED repeats one of the following sequences: one or two blinks and a pause, the Radio Remote Control is active and it can send commands and activate the Machine. AUTEC LIUDJM005_eng-00 26 8.9.1 Monitored commands When the START pushbutton is pressed during the Radio Remote Control start up, the Transmitting Unit monitors the status of commands D2-D20, A1-A8, H1-H8 and L1-L8. If any command is active, the Unit shows which command is active through the LEDs and the display. In this case, to keep this signal active, hold the START pushbutton pressed until the Transmitting Unit automatically switches off (otherwise the signal will be interrupted). If none of the monitored commands is active, the Radio Remote Control starts. Commands monitored by the Transmitting Unit during start up are chosen by the Machine Manufacturer according to the risk assessment. If this assessment was positive, the Manufacturer can ask Autec to modify the behaviour of commands D2-D20, A1-A8, H1-H8 and L1-L8 during start up. Look up for monitored and non-monitored commands in the Technical Data Sheet. Commands D21-D48 and A9-A12 can not be monitored during start up. When the START pushbutton is pressed to start the Radio Remote Control, the commands that are not monitored during start up, if active, immediately activate the Machine functions that are associated with them. 8.10 How to take control of the Receiving Unit in a Take & Release Radio Remote Control To take control of the Receiving Unit, activate the TAKE command and hold it active until in the Receiving Unit's seven-segment display appears "---1" or "---2". 8.11 How to release the Receiving Unit in a Take & Release Radio Remote Control To release the Receiving Unit, activate the RELEASE command. Depending on the Transmitting Unit's configuration, this command may be associated with one or two actuators. If the RELEASE command is associated to one actuator, to release the Receiving Unit you need to activate the actuator and hold it active until in the Receiving Unit's seven-segment display appears "---F". If the RELEASE command is associated to two actuators, to release the Receiving Unit you need to activate the two actuators simultaneously and hold them active until in the Receiving Unit's seven-segment display appears "---F". LIUDJM005_eng-00 AUTEC 27 Autec can set the RELEASE command to be activated in a different way than the above mentioned ones, only upon request by either the Machine Manufacturer or the Installer: the User must be properly trained in the matter. By releasing the Receiving Unit of a Take & Release Radio Remote Control, the User gives an explicit consent to the other Users, thus enabling them to take control of the Receiving Unit just released. 8.12 Command activation When the Radio Remote Control is started, it is possible to activate movements, functions and commands on the Machine by acting on the related joysticks, switches or pushbuttons, whose functions and symbols are decided by the Manufacturer and/or the Installer. To identify the relation between the actuators and the corresponding Machine movements, the Machine Manufacturer and/or the Installer shall provide relevant instructions and the User shall be properly trained. 8.13 Interruption of the radio link When the radio link is incorrect or interrupted for a certain period of time ("Passive Stop" indicated in the Technical Data Sheet), the automatic stop function activates (see paragraph "Control devices" in "Part A" of the Manual). The green LED on the Transmitting Unit blinks fast. The POWER LED on the Receiving Unit illuminates steadily. To start the Radio Remote Control, press the START pushbutton and hold it down until the green LED repeats one or two blinks and a pause. If the red LED illuminates, refer to chapter 11. When the green LED repeats one of the following sequences: one or two blinks and a pause, the Radio Remote Control is active and it can send commands and activate the Machine. 8.14 Transmitting Unit automatic switch off Automatic switch off of the Transmitting Unit occurs in the following cases.
- When the battery is flat (see paragraph 8.14.1).
- When the Radio Remote Control is not used for a certain time (see paragraph 8.14.2).
- When the transmitting unit is powered and never switched off for twenty-four hours non-stop
(see paragraph 8.14.3). The green LED on the Transmitting Unit switches off. The POWER LED on the Receiving Unit illuminates steadily. To start the Radio Remote Control, press the START pushbutton and hold it down until the green LED repeats one or two blinks and a pause. If the red LED illuminates, refer to chapter 11. AUTEC LIUDJM005_eng-00 28 When the green LED repeats one of the following sequences: one or two blinks and a pause, the Radio Remote Control is active and it can send commands and activate the Machine. 8.14.1 Low battery The Transmitting Unit indicates if the battery is not sufficiently charged (the red LED blinks and an acoustic signal sounds). The Transmitting Unit automatically switches off after 3.5 minutes after the onset of the signal. It is necessary to bring the Machine to a safe state and replace the battery with a charged one
(see paragraph 8.7). The battery run time signalled by the Transmitting Unit is reduced by the following factors:
- Battery ageing
- Increasing number of battery charge-discharge cycles
- Battery usage outside the range provided in paragraph "Operational usage" in
"Part A" of the Manual.
- Battery storage in disregard of the indications given in paragraph "Storage" in the instruction manual for the use and maintenance of the battery and battery charger. 8.14.2 When the Transmitting Unit is not used If the Transmitting Unit remains started for a certain time while none of these commands are enabled: SAFETY, D2-D10, H1-H8 or L1-L8, then it automatically switches off. This time frame is specified in the Technical Data Sheet (Automatic Switch Off). Setting or removal of the automatic switch off time (Automatic Switch Off) is done by Autec and decided by the Machine Manufacturer, according to his risk assessment and to the operation and functions he needs on the Machine. 8.14.3 Non-stop use The Transmitting Unit indicates if it has been on for twenty-four hours non-stop (the red LED blinks and an acoustic signal sounds). The Transmitting Unit automatically switches off after 3.5 minutes after the onset of the signal. Bring the Machine to a safe state before the Transmitting Unit automatically switches off. LIUDJM005_eng-00 AUTEC 29 8.15 Switching off the Transmitting Unit Switch off the Transmitting Unit when not actively using the Radio Remote Control to operate the Machine, or when work is otherwise interrupted, even for short periods. Do not leave the load hanging or the Machine in dangerous conditions (even when charging the Unit or changing the battery). FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DEATH AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. Voluntary switch off of the Transmitting Unit occurs in the following cases.
- when the power keyswitch is turned anti-clockwise or removed.
- When the battery is removed (see paragraph 8.7.2). 8.16 Data Feedback Function The User receives information and/or signals concerning some specific situations and the movements of the controlled Machine by means of the Data Feedback function. The Data Feedback function acts through the LED array and/or the display. Any information shown and signalled on the display and/or through the LEDs for Data Feedback function can never be considered or used as a safety signal or for legal metrology. When operating the Machine, remember that the Radio Remote Control does not cut in autonomously when potential hazardous situations are shown and signalled. During normal Radio Remote Control operation, pay particular attention to the indications displayed and signalled by the display and/or through the LEDs: they can be helpful to evaluate the Machine working status. AUTEC LIUDJM005_eng-00 30 8.16.1 Operation with display If the Transmitting Unit has a display, it is possible to show warning icons, the measurements collected from the Machine and their description. The Machine Manufacturer chooses which information are displayed and the way they are displayed (icons and/or measurements and/or descriptions). In addition, the battery level and the quality of the radio link are always indicated. 8.16.2 Operation with LED If the Transmitting Unit has an LED array for the Data Feedback function, specific Machine conditions are signalled if they are illuminated (by way of example: load limits, limit switch). The signalled conditions depend on the settings chosen by the Machine Manufacturer. 8.17 Cable control The cable control is used:
- in particular working conditions, established by the Machine Manufacturer
- when it is not possible to establish a radio link between the Radio Remote Control Units,
- when working in environments where using radio frequencies is not allowed or is dangerous,
- when a fully charged battery is not available. ATTENTION: The use of the cable control entails risk of electric shock when working near overhead or underground power line's cables. 8.17.1 Description The cable control connects the Transmitting Unit to the Receiving Unit through a cable that replaces the radio link. The cable shall be plugged in the suitable connectors, one on the Transmitting Unit and the other on the Receiving Unit (or placed where established by the Machine Manufacturer). When using the cable control, the working features of the Radio Remote Control and of the Take & Release Radio Remote Control (e.g. the meaning of actuators and the Data Feedback function) do not change. LIUDJM005_eng-00 AUTEC 8.17.2 Operation 31 Before starting to work, make sure that the cable and the corresponding connectors are intact. Work organisation, Machines' position, passages, etc. shall be planned so as to avoid that the cable control 's cable may be damaged by moving trolleys or by the ongoing operations. Do not use the cable control's cable to lift the Transmitting Unit. Lay the cable control's cable in such a way as to avoid that it is squashed or strained by People or objects. Avoid contact with sharp or cutting objects that can cut the cable's protective sheath. The cable control cannot be used if the Radio Remote Control is installed on a Machine that controls loads that are not isolated from an AC power supply or from a DC power supply higher than 30V . Using the cable control at the same time as the waist belt or the shoulder harness means that there is a physical connection between the User and the Machine: therefore, the User must constantly check that the Machine's movements, especially in case of loss of control (by way of example: risk of overturning, of cable dragging by other Machinery), do not cause hazards. In such situations, the User must pull out the belt or open it by unfastening its buckle(s). The cable control must only be connected and disconnected when the Transmitting Unit is off. When you finish working with the cable control, disconnect the cable from the Transmitting Unit and from the Machine, and protect the connectors with their caps. AUTEC LIUDJM005_eng-00 32 Follow this procedure to control the Machine with the cable control:
1. Power on the Receiving Unit respecting the voltage limits provided in the technical data (see
"Part D" of the Manual). The POWER LED illuminates. 2. Make sure that the battery is inside the Transmitting Unit and leave it there even though the power supply comes from the Receiving Unit via the cable control. The battery is not, in any case, recharged through the cable control: it can only be recharged through its appropriate battery charger provided together with the system. 3. Connect the cable control to its connector in the Receiving Unit (or where arranged by the Machine Manufacturer). 4. Connect the cable control to its connector on the Transmitting Unit. 5. Insert the power keyswitch in the Transmitting Unit (see paragraph 8.1). 6. In a Take & Release Radio Remote Control, activate the TAKE command and hold it active until the Receiving Unit's seven-segment displays show the following signal: "---1" or "---2". 7. Press the START pushbutton and hold it down until the green LED repeats the sequence:
three blinks and a pause. If the red LED illuminates, refer to chapter 11. When the green LED repeats the sequence: three blinks and a pause, the Radio Remote Control is active and it can send commands and activate the Machine. When working with the cable control, the radio link is cut off:
LIUDJM005_eng-00 AUTEC 8.18 BACK-UP UNIT If the Transmitting Unit cannot be used, it can be replaced with a Transmitting Unit called BACK-
UP UNIT; you need to ask for it from Autec. It is identical to the Unit that cannot be used any more; the only difference is the presence of the plate BACK-UP UNIT on the battery housing. Insert the Key ID 0-1 or the ID internal tx memory of the Transmitting Unit to be replaced into the BACK-UP UNIT, then perform the address storage procedure (see paragraph 8.18.1). As required by standard IEC 60204-32, each Radio Remote Control is uniquely identified through a serial number (S/N). Therefore, upon replacement of the Unit, the serial number of the Transmitting Unit to be replaced must be written on the BACK-UP UNIT, so that all the Units belonging to the Radio Remote Control show the same serial number. The identification plate carrying the Radio Remote Control serial number is moved from the Transmitting Unit to be replaced to the BACK-UP UNIT by moving the Key ID 0-1. On the contrary, if the ID internal tx memory is present, you need to stick the identification plate (ask Autec for it) over the "BACK-UP UNIT" label. Autec cannot be held responsible if the serial number of the Transmitting Unit to be replaced has not been marked on BACK-UP UNIT. 8.18.1 Address storage Perform the following procedure with fully charged battery and power keyswitch inserted in the BACK-UP UNIT:
1. Press the GSS or EMS pushbutton. 2. Press the START pushbutton and hold it pressed until the green LED turns off. 3. Unlock the GSS or the EMS pushbutton. It is now possible to start the Radio Remote Control and to control the Machine with the BACK-
UP UNIT Transmitting Unit. 34 9 Instructions for the User The chapter "Instructions for the User" in "Part A" of the Instruction Manual contains the warnings for the use that add to those provided in this chapter.

AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 20 4 Radio Remote Control features Dynamic+ series' Radio Remote Controls are used to control Machines from a distance, without physical connection (by way of example: wires or connecting cables) between the Transmitting Unit handled by the User and the Receiving Unit installed on the Machine, hence between the User and the Machine. They usually consist of a portable Transmitting Unit, from which the User can remotely control a Machine, and a Receiving Unit installed on board the Machine itself. Images of the single Units belonging to the Radio Remote Control can be found in the specific manual that refers to each Unit. The relation between the commands sent by the Transmitting Unit and those available in the Receiving Unit is decided by the Installer of the Radio Remote Control on the Machine. 4.1 Description of radio link The Transmitting Unit communicates with the Receiving Unit through a radio link. Such link must be continuous to promote safety in the use of the Machine. Every time this link is incorrect or interrupted, the Receiving Unit stops the commands and orders the Machine to stop. The Machine stops only if the wiring between the Receiving Unit and the Machine itself is correct. The Units in a Radio Remote Control code their messages through an address that is unique
(produced by Autec only once and non repeatable for other Radio Remote Controls) and univocal
(specific for each Radio Remote Control and associated to it). Each Unit can only decode messages coming from the Unit with the same address. This prevents messages from other radio equipment from activating any "Machine+Radio Remote Control" system function. The radio link is interrupted in the following cases:
- Stop (see paragraph 4.3)
- Low battery
- Automatic switch off
- No power supply in the Receiving Unit
- Working range exceeded (see paragraph 4.5)
- Presence of metal obstructions. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 21 WARNING: The operating working range may be significantly and unpredictably reduced compared to the value indicated in the technical data (see paragraph 4.5) when special conditions occur in the working environment (by way of example: temporary presence of electromagnetic interference and/or metal obstructions). WARNING: The operating working range may be extended up to ten times compared to the value indicated in the technical data (see paragraph 4.5) when there are no interference elements in the working environment (by way of example: no electromagnetic interference and/or metal obstacles). When a radio link is interrupted:
- All outputs of the Receiving Unit are disabled
- It is not possible to enable or disable the Machine commands through the Transmitting Unit until the Radio Remote Control is started up again. When the START pushbutton is pressed to re-start the Radio Remote Control, the commands that are not monitored during start up (see Technical Data Sheet), if active, immediately activate the Machine functions that are associated with them. The Machine's Manufacturer or those who integrate the Radio Remote Control in the Machine must take this Radio Remote Control behaviour into account when carrying out the risk assessment. The Machine Manufacturer or those who integrate the Radio Remote Control on the Machine must inform the User if they believe that the reactivation of such Machine functions may entail hazardous situations that cannot be reduced by reasonable technical measures implemented on the Machine itself. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 22 4.2 Control devices 4.2.1 Start up and switch off Start up and switch off functions are described in chapter "General instructions for operation"
included in "Part C" of the Instruction Manual. Therefore, please refer to that part of the Manual. 4.3 Radio Remote Control stop functions The Radio Remote Control has two stop functions that bring the Machine to a safe state every time it is necessary to stop it due to a potentially hazardous situation:
- Automatic stop function (ATS): this function is activated automatically (see chapter 4.3.3).
- Manual stop function: this stop function may be a General Safe Stop (GSS, see paragraph 4.3.1) or an EMergency Stop (EMS, see paragraph 4.3.2). The automatic stop function (ATS) and the manual stop function are both safety functions (see chapter 4.5). The GSS function and the EMS function are never present simultaneously in a Radio Remote Control. The Machine Manufacturer and/or the Installer have the responsibility to decide which one is the correct/suitable one for the radio remote controlled Machine in accordance with the requirements for such function. THE USER MUST AT ALL TIMES PAY FULL ATTENTION TO THE SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE MACHINE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS PROVIDED IN THIS MANUAL AND WITH THE MANUAL, INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS FOR THE MACHINE AND WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS, REGULATIONS AND STANDARDS, EVEN LOCAL. ACTIVATING THE PUSHBUTTON RELATED TO THE STOP FUNCTION (GSS or EMS) MAY NOT RESULT IN AN IMMEDIATE STOP OF THE MACHINE. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 23 THE ACTIVATION OF THE PUSHBUTTON RELATED TO THE STOP FUNCTION
(GSS OR EMS) CONTROLS THE MACHINE'S STOP FUNCTION, BUT THE TIME AND DISTANCE WITHIN WHICH THE LATTER WILL BE BROUGHT TO A SAFE STATE MAY VARY FROM MACHINE TO MACHINE, FOR EXAMPLE DUE TO THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF A BRAKE. THE USER MUST BE FULLY AWARE OF THE MACHINE'S MOVEMENTS AND OPERATING ZONES AND MUST ALLOW FOR SUFFICIENT SAFE FUNCTIONING OF THE MACHINE, INCLUDING SUCH RESPONSE TIMES AND STOPPING DISTANCES. FAILURE TO DO SO CONTINUOUSLY AND CORRECTLY MAY RESULT IN SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. Depending on the Machine's risk assessment, it may be necessary to arrange, on the Machine or nearby, an additional restore device to be used after the GSS or the EMS function has been activated by the Transmitting Unit. This device must be placed in a fixed position in such a way as to enable the User to perfectly see the whole Machine's working area. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 24 4.3.1 General Safe Stop function (GSS) The User activates the GSS function by using the pushbutton identified with GSS or General Safe Stop in the Transmitting Unit. This manual stop first generates an active stop and then it switches off the Transmitting Unit. This working logic implicates that the Receiving Unit brings the Machine to a safe state when it receives the command generated by the active stop. If this does not happen due to interference causing incorrect or broken radio link, the passive stop will activate the automatic stop function in the Receiving Unit. Activation of GSS pushbutton Active stop Switching off the Transmitting Unit Passive stop Deactivating the Receiving Unit's STOP outputs The GSS function is available if and only if the Radio Remote Control is started (see paragraph "Radio Remote Control start up" in "Part C" of the Manual). In "Take & Release" Radio Remote Controls, the GSS function is available only on the Transmitting Unit that controls the machine when the Radio Remote Control is started (see "Radio Remote Control start up" in "Part C" of the Manual). LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 25 Never leave the Transmitting Unit unguarded to avoid uncertainty about the availability or unavailability of the GSS function. The mission time of the GSS function, as defined in international standards and requirements, is 20 years. In any case, the Radio Remote Control must be replaced within this period. The "mission time" must not be considered as a warranty period. After the activation of the GSS or General Safe Stop pushbutton on the Transmitting Unit, the Machine is not controlled by the Radio Remote Control any more. Any possible risks that may arise from the activation of the stop function must be taken into account by the Installer of the Radio Remote Control, and by the Manufacturer and the Owner of the Machine where the Radio Remote Control is installed. The Radio Remote Control User must be properly trained about this. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 26 4.3.2 EMergency Stop (EMS) function The EMS function is never available in "Take&Release" Radio Remote Controls. The User activates EMS function by using the red pushbutton on a yellow background identified with EMS in the Transmitting Unit. This manual stop first generates an active stop and then it switches off the Transmitting Unit. This working logic implicates that the Receiving Unit brings the Machine to a safe state when it receives the command generated by the active stop. If this does not happen due to interference causing incorrect or broken radio link, the passive stop will activate the automatic stop function in the Receiving Unit. The red pushbutton in use complies with the IEC 60204-1 and with the IEC 60947-5-5. The EMS function complies with the ISO 13850. Activation of EMS pushbutton Active stop Switching off the Transmitting Unit Passive stop Deactivating the Receiving Unit's STOP outputs The EMS function is available if and only if the Radio Remote Control is started (see paragraph "Radio Remote Control start up" in "Part C" of the Manual). LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 27 The Radio Remote Control's stop function can be considered EMS only if:
It belongs to a Machine's emergency stop function compliant with the requirements of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and of the ISO 13850 standard It belongs to a Machine's emergency stop function that is always available and operational, independently from the Machine's working mode
- The Transmitting Unit is the only control station of the Machine. If, on the other hand, there is another non-remote control station, the EMS function present in the Radio Remote Control must always be made available and operational. The red pushbutton on the Transmitting Unit must not be the only means to initiate the emergency stop function in the radio remote controlled Machine. Never leave the Transmitting Unit unguarded to avoid uncertainty about the availability or unavailability of the EMS function. The mission time of the EMS function, as defined in international standards and requirements, is 20 years. In any case, the Radio Remote Control must be replaced within this period. The "mission time" must not be considered as a warranty period. After the activation of the red pushbutton on the Transmitting Unit, the Machine is not controlled by the Radio Remote Control any more. Any possible risks that may arise from the activation of the stop function must be taken into account by the Installer of the Radio Remote Control, and by the Manufacturer and the Owner of the Machine where the Radio Remote Control is installed. The Radio Remote Control User must be properly trained about this. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 28 4.3.3 Automatic stop function (ATS) The automatic stop function (ATS) prevents hazardous operation of the radio remote controlled Machine and brings it to a safe state. This function is activated automatically:
- By the Receiving Unit due to passive stop, when the Receiving Unit does not receive correct messages in a given time span (see paragraph 4.1).
- When a Radio Remote Control malfunction is detected. INCORRECT messages for a given time span Radio Remote Control malfunction detected by the Transmitting Unit Radio Remote Control malfunction detected by the Receiving Unit Switching off the Transmitting Unit Passive stop Deactivating the Receiving Unit's STOP outputs LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 4.4 Protection against unintended movements from the standstill position UMFS 29 Unintended movements of the Machine, that is Machine movements that are not activated by movements of the actuators, may occur due to electrical or mechanical failure or malfunction that may affect the Radio Remote Control. The rest position of the actuators on the Transmitting Unit is the neutral position. When all the actuators related to commands protected by the UMFS function (such commands are indicated in the Technical Data Sheet as COMMAND+SAFETY) are in the neutral position, the Radio Remote Control keeps the Receiving Unit's SAFETY outputs deactivate, regardless of the status of all the outputs related to the commands. When all the actuators of commands protected by the UMFS function are in their neutral position, the UMFS function reduces the risk of accidentally activating Machine's movements in case of electrical failure in the Radio Remote Control. During the Radio Remote Control start up, if all actuators related to commands protected by the UMFS function are in their neutral position, possible movement commands due to electrical failure do not activate the SAFETY outputs. If all actuators related to the commands protected by UMFS function are released, SAFETY outputs are deactivated after about 1 second (for the ADD Receiving Unit only, such delay cannot occur: see SAFETY delay time in the Installation Manual). The UMFS function prevents the Radio Remote Control from starting if an electrical failure of movement commands is detected. THE UMFS FUNCTION WORKS CORRECTLY IF AND ONLY IF "SAFETY"
OUTPUTS ARE CONNECTED CORRECTLY (SEE INSTALLATION MANUAL). AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 30 MOVEMENT OF THE MACHINE MAY OCCUR WHENEVER AN ACTUATOR RELATED TO MOVEMENT COMMANDS IN THE TRANSMITTING UNIT IS MOVED FROM ITS NEUTRAL POSITION. EVEN INADVERTENT ACTIVATION OF COMMANDS MAY CAUSE MACHINE MOVEMENTS (SEE PARAGRAPH 7.3). EVEN THOUGH THIS RADIO REMOTE CONTROL IS EQUIPPED WITH ALL THE REASONABLE MEASURES TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL ACTIVATION, IT CANNOT DETECT IF THE ACTUATOR HAS BEEN MOVED INTENTIONALLY OR ACCIDENTALLY. THE UMFS FUNCTION MUST NOT BE INTENDED AS A PROTECTION AGAINST ACCIDENTAL ACTIVATION OF ACTUATORS, BUT IT HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO PREVENT UNINTENDED ACTIVATION OF MOVEMENTS IN CASE OF ELECTRICAL FAILURE OF COMMANDS PROTECTED BY THE UMFS FUNCTION. THE UMFS FUNCTION IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE WHATSOEVER FOR THE PROPER USE AND PROTECTION OF THE TRANSMITTING UNIT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS CONTAINED IN THIS MANUAL (INCLUDING ALL OF ITS PARTS); THE USER MUST AT ALL TIMES PAY FULL ATTENTION TO THE SAFE AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE MACHINE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS PROVIDED IN THIS MANUAL AND IN THE MANUAL FOR THE MACHINE AND WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS AND STANDARDS, EVEN LOCAL.

The serial number is provided in the identification plate on each Radio Remote Control Unit. This is the only reference to be used for maintenance operations and for any other situation when you need to precisely identify the Radio Remote Control. The serial number must be mentioned in any communication with Autec, its dealers, Installers, Maintenance Technicians of the Radio Remote Control and with the people who, in any capacity, need information, spare parts or technical data concerning the Radio Remote Control. Plates must not be removed from their position: removal immediately voids the warranty. Plates must not be altered or damaged, contact Autec for replacement. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 32 The Machine Manufacturer, the Installer, the Maintenance Technician and the People in charge for the usage of the Machine and of the working place are responsible for making sure that the Radio Remote Control's identification plate is a sufficient means to explain the correspondence between the Transmitting Unit and the Receiving Unit. If that were the case, it is necessary to provide additional, more visible identification. 4.7 Additional features of the "Take & Release" Radio Remote Control It consists of two Transmitting Units, from which two Users can remotely control a single Machine, and of a Receiving Unit installed on board the Machine itself. The Receiving Unit can be controlled by a single Transmitting Unit independently (of other Transmitting Unit) and exclusively (the Receiving Unit cannot be controlled by both Transmitting Units at the same time), so as to avoid command overlap. The Transmitting Units belonging to a "Take & Release" Radio Remote Control are named TU No.1 and TU No.2. The names of Transmitting Units' belonging to a "Take & Release" Radio Remote Control are provided in the Technical Data Sheet, on the panel of each Transmitting Unit and on the label attached to the "Key ID 0-1" (if any) with a metal ring. 4.7.1 Description of radio link The Receiving Unit can decode only the messages coming from the Transmitting Units of the
"Take & Release" Radio Remote Control to which it belongs. Each Transmitting Unit can decode only the messages coming from the Receiving Unit of the
"Take & Release" Radio Remote Control to which it belongs. 4.7.2 Receiving Unit statuses The Receiving Unit of a "Take & Release" Radio Remote Control can have two different statuses:
- Free: the Receiving Unit is not controlled by any Transmitting Unit.
- Engaged: the Receiving Unit is controlled by one of the Transmitting Units and cannot be controlled by the other Unit until it is released. The Receiving Unit switches from the engaged to the free status in the following cases:
- if it is disconnected from its power source for at least one second,
- if it is released by the Transmitting Unit that was controlling it. Only when the Receiving Unit is free, it can be engaged by the first Transmitting Unit that performs such operation by acting on the TAKE command, or by performing the start up procedure
(see "Part C" in the Instruction Manual). When a Transmitting Unit is switched off without releasing the Receiving Unit beforehand (see "Part C" in the Instruction Manual), the latter remains in "engaged"
status. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 33 5 Radio Remote Control storage before installation or after removal Radio Remote Controls must always be transported and stored inside their packing until they are installed on the Machine. The Radio Remote Control system and all components are to be shipped and maintained according to the following environmental parameters and conditions:
Temperature Relative Humidity Air pressure Transportation Storage from -40 to +70C
(from -40 to +158F) from -40 to +85C
(from -40 to +185F) 95%
from 70 to 106kPa from 5 to 95%
from 70 to 106kPa
- Temperature, relative humidity and air pressure during transportation refer to Class 2K4 of
- Temperature and air pressure during storage refer to Class 1K5 of standard EN 50178.
- Relative humidity during storage refers to Class 1K3 of standard EN 50178. In the previous table:
standard EN 50178. 6 Installation The chapter "Installing the Receiving Unit" in "Part D" of the Instruction Manual contains the warnings for the installation that add to those provided in this chapter. Therefore, please refer to that part of the Manual. 6.1 Applications An Autec Dynamic+ series Radio Remote Control can be used for several applications: the Manufacturer must establish if the Radio Remote Control is suitable for each different application, especially with regards to safety. The Dynamic+ series is used most frequently for the following types of Machines:
- Machines for lifting and moving materials, objects, general loads (by way of example: hydraulic
- Machines for raising and moving people (by way of example: elevated work platforms, cranes, concrete pumps) telehandlers)
- Drilling Machines. Make sure that the application's requirements are compatible with the value "(Typical) Working range" (see paragraph 4.5). Be aware that such value may vary (see paragraph 4.1). AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 34 The Autec Radio Remote Control may not be installed on Machines where it is used for applications or functions not permitted under this Manual and applicable Laws, Regulations and Standards, even local. INSTALLATION OF AN AUTEC RADIO REMOTE CONTROL ON OTHER MACHINE OR FOR OTHER FUNCTIONS MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. Autec is not and cannot be held responsible if the Radio Remote Control is used in unsafe or poor safety conditions. Assessment shall be made by the Machine Manufacturer to establish possible additional protection measures for the actuators (by way of example: commands requiring two-hand operation, dead-man function) if particular environments, equipment and working modes could cause accidental bumps to the actuators.
"Take & Release" Radio Remote Controls are not suitable to be used in Machines requiring simultaneous consent from different Transmitting Units to start the Machine itself or to perform operations. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 35 In addition to the above, Dynamic+ series' Radio Remote Controls cannot be installed:
- On Machines that are intended for the use in environments requiring explosion-proof features or in any Radio Remote Control usage situation that may pose the risk of explosion
- On machines where the receiving unit power supply does not come from a battery or from a power supply unit with safety isolating transformer
- On Machines that control loads that are not isolated from alternating current
(AC) power supply (if applicable)
- On Machines that create or can create dangerous situations if they stop due to the loss of radio link
- On Machines that do not allow a risk-free installation of a Radio Remote Control, due to their functions or features and/or to the risks related to their use
- On any kind of lifting accessory (by way of example: magnets, grippers, suction cups) whenever the loss of radio link or the deactivation of commands may cause the release of the load, resulting in the risk of damage to People and/or property. The Machine Manufacturer may allow the installation and use of the Radio Remote Control for such applications under their own responsibility If the applicable safety-related laws in the country where the Machine is used, regulations and standards (even local ones), even concerning safety in the workplace, do not allow the use of Radio Remote Controls to control the Machines.
INSTALLATION OF AN AUTEC RADIO REMOTE CONTROL ON MACHINES AND IN THE ABOVE-MENTIONED SITUATIONS MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 36 6.2 Staff training: installation and maintenance All installation and maintenance operations relating to the Autec Radio Remote Control system must be carried out ONLY by qualified technicians. Without limitation on the foregoing, such technicians must be trained and qualified with respect to:
- The activity to perform
- Warnings resulting from the risk assessment, concerning the Radio Remote Control installation and/or maintenance
- All applicable Laws, Regulations and Standards, even local, including also safety rules
- Operations and requirements of the Machine on which the Radio Remote Control is to be installed
- Instructions and warnings provided in the Manual and any other documents related to the Radio Remote Control and to the radio remote controlled Machine
- Directions by the Machine Manufacturer and by the Person in charge for safety in the workplace where the system "Machine + Radio Remote Control" is used. General instructions for installation and maintenance are provided in chapter 6 and in chapter 9 respectively. Instructions for the different Units are described in the specific Manual's parts related to the Units. Therefore, please refer to that parts of the Instruction Manual. 6.3 Classification of commands This paragraph describes the classification of commands in the Radio Remote Control: such information is useful during installation and maintenance. 6.3.1 Command type: analogue, digital or direction command Commands sent by the Transmitting Unit can either be analogue, digital or direction commands. Analogue commands generate proportional outputs as a function of the position of the corresponding actuator. Digital commands switch the status of their corresponding output, according to the position of the related actuator. This status can either be on or off. Direction commands are digital commands paired with analogue commands, and are used to enable the movement in a specific direction. 6.3.2 Name of commands All commands activated by the Transmitting Unit are identified with abbreviations such D1, D2, H1, L1, etc. Those abbreviations are provided in the Technical Data Sheet that must be used when installing the system, and in particular:
- In the drawing of the Transmitting Unit, where commands and their layout are indicated
- In the wiring diagram of the Receiving Unit. This is helpful to highlight the relation between the commands sent by the Transmitting Unit and those available on the Receiving Unit. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 37 6.4 Warnings for installation The Installer of the Radio Remote Control must always read, understand and follow all the instructions and warnings contained in this Manual. These instructions and warnings are not exhaustive. In addition, for a correct installation, the Installer must abide and comply with all Laws, Regulations and Standards, even local, including all the technical specifications and standards applicable to the Autec Radio Remote Control to which this Manual applies (by way of example: IEC 60204-1, IEC 60204-32). The Installer of the Radio Remote Control must also observe all the instructions, provisions and technical directions provided by the Machine Manufacturer. Instructions and warnings provided in this chapter 6 are general. Specific instructions for the installation of the Radio Remote Control are provided in the Installation Manual: please refer to it for this information. The Installer must use and comply with that Installation Manual to complete the tasks for which he is appointed. 6.4.1 General warnings for installation Always follow the instructions provided in the Technical Data Sheet and respect values given in the technical data to carry out correct installation. The electrical connection of the Receiving Unit must meet the requirements set by clause 9.1 of standard IEC 60204-1 and/or standard IEC 60204-32. ONLY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL MAY INSTALL THE RADIO REMOTE CONTROL. SUCH PERSONNEL MUST HAVE MASTERED THE TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED TO CARRY OUT THESE PROCEDURES CORRECTLY AND SAFELY AND BE QUALIFIED ACCORDING TO THE APPLICABLE LAWS AND REGULATIONS AND HAVE ALL NECESSARY CERTIFICATIONS. FAILURE TO INSTALL THE AUTEC RADIO REMOTE CONTROL CORRECTLY MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 38 6.4.2 Mounting and fastening the Receiving Unit in the best position Place the Receiving Unit so as to avoid damage due to incidental contact. Place the Receiving Unit so that it can be easily reached in case of need. Place the Receiving Unit so that it can be easily reached, and far from heat sources (e.g. exhaust pipes, heat exchangers, radiators). Place the Receiving Unit vertically, with the cable gland or the plug facing down. NO NO YES Fix the Receiving Unit in four points, using the specific holes in the housing. Do not perforate the Receiving Unit in any case. When installing on Machines that are subject to intense mechanical stress
(by way of example: vibrations, rough paths, sudden movements), it is recommended to fix the Receiving Unit to the Machine with the appropriate vibration dampers. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 39 6.4.3 Positioning the antenna The Receiving Unit may be configured with internal antenna or external antenna
(see Technical Data Sheet). If the antenna is external, it cannot be mounted directly on the Receiving Unit's casing, but it must be installed with the antenna cable-extension kit. If the antenna is inside the Receiving Unit, install the Receiving Unit in a free and easily accessible area of the Machine: protections, panels, parts, surfaces or anything else should not be present, so that shields, structures or materials do not obstruct the radio link. In particular, the Receiving Unit must be placed at least 50 cm far from metal objects in its surroundings and must never be placed inside closed metal containers. NO YES AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 40 If the antenna is external to the Receiving Unit, install the antenna vertically as far as possible from the Receiving Unit and from other electrical and electronic devices. The antenna must not be placed inside closed metal containers. Install the antenna at least 50 cm far from metal objects in the surroundings, in a free area of the Machine; protections, panels, parts, surfaces or anything else should not be present, so that shields, structures or materials do not obstruct the radio link. NO YES LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 41 6.4.4 Wiring Wiring is understood as the electrical cable connections that can be found:
- Inside the Receiving Unit
- Between the Receiving Unit and the Machine. ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE PERFORMED AND MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE AND ALL APPLICABLE LAWS, REGULATIONS AND STANDARDS, EVEN LOCAL. IF INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED BY AUTEC ARE INCONSISTENT WITH SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS, REGULATIONS OR STANDARDS, DO NOT INSTALL THE AUTEC RADIO REMOTE CONTROL WITHOUT CONSULTATION WITH AUTEC. AUTEC IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR AND SHALL NOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY MALFUNCTIONS OR ACCIDENTS THAT MAY OCCUR DUE TO ANY IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR INCONSISTENCY BETWEEN ITS INSTRUCTIONS AND SUCH LAWS, REGULATIONS OR STANDARDS. FAILURE TO INSTALL THE AUTEC RADIO REMOTE CONTROL CORRECTLY MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. The power supply of the Receiving Unit must have a switch that allows power supply disconnection during installation, wiring and/or maintenance operations. Connect the Receiving Unit immediately downstream of the Machine main switch or of the electrical panel main switch (see the Installation Manual). The Receiving Unit's power supply must be protected against short circuit by means of an external device (by way of example: fuse, thermal magnetic circuit breaker). Such device must be able to interrupt the maximum fault current
(including the short circuit current) allowed in the circuit. Make sure that the Receiving Unit's power supply is protected against short circuits and is supplied either by a battery or by a power supply unit with safety isolating transformer. Limits provided in the technical data must be observed (see chapter "Technical Data" in "Part D" of the Instruction Manual). Never connect power supply positive or negative pole to the outputs. Such connections damage the outputs and make ineffective the UMFS and STOP safety functions. In this case the Machine may be in a dangerous condition, out of the User's control. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 42 The Installer must avoid that a power supply positive or negative pole is connected to the outputs. If a Receiving Unit's output is connected to a direct current inductive load (by way of example: solenoid valves, relays), it is advisable to connect a freewheeling diode in anti-parallel with the driven load, to reduce the effects of demagnetizing currents. A 12 or 24 V voltage must always be applied to the power supply input of solid state outputs. Common wire related to diodes of solid state outputs must be connected with the common of all the Machine's freewheeling diodes. If that is not possible, connect it to the Receiving Unit's power supply negative. Pay special attention to the currents flowing in the STOP and SAFETY outputs:
they shall not exceed the maximum permitted values (see rated current of STOP and SAFETY outputs in chapter "Technical Data" in "Part D" of the Instruction Manual) . Wiring of STOP outputs is crucial to define the safety level for the STOP function (see the Installation Manual). Wiring of SAFETY outputs is crucial to define the safety level for the UMFS protection function (see the Installation Manual). Single-insulation wiring cables shall be placed inside the Receiving Unit, in such a way that they do not jeopardize the insulation amongst the circuits. The Installer is in any case responsible for carrying out wiring in such a way as to ensure the safety level required according to the risk analysis; in particular, the connection of power supply's positive or negative pole to the STOP outputs must be avoided. In compliance with article 9.2.7.4 of IEC Standard 60204-1 and of article 9.2.7.5 of IEC 60204-32, as far as "Take & Release" Radio Remote Controls are concerned, one or more signals (lamps or horns) must be installed; dedicated outputs on the Receiving Unit must be used for that purpose. Such signalling devices indicate which Transmitting Unit is controlling the Receiving Unit. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 43 Since the "Take & Release" Radio Remote Control consists of two Transmitting Units an one Receiving Unit, the Installer must carefully assess the risks generated by the presence of multiple Units, and adopt the necessary risk reduction measures. 6.4.5 At the end of installation Make sure that during installation the protection measures on the Radio Remote Control and/or in the Machine have not been made ineffective by improper installation works. Look up in the Technical Data Sheet and check that the frequency band set in the Radio Remote Control is permitted in the country of use. Correctly close the Receiving Unit in order to maintain the protection from dust, contaminants and water:
- Make sure that the gasket is intact and correctly seated.
- Check that the housing parts correctly fit so that they overlap.
- Tighten the screws. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 44 6.4.6 Testing The Installer must check and fill in the Technical Data Sheet in all its parts, adding the date in which the radio remote controlled Machine has been put into service, their stamp and signature. After installing and wiring the Receiving Unit, test the Machine controlled by the Radio Remote Control and verify that the operations carried out correspond exactly to the commands sent, including in particular but not limited to the functionality of the STOP command. Make sure that the SAFETY outputs (of UMFS function) only activate after the Radio Remote Control has started, and when at least one movement command is sent to the Machine. Also make sure that the SAFETY outputs disable when all the movement commands are released. In case of malfunction, disable the system Machine+Radio Remote Control until the problem has been completely solved and the installation and functionality is confirmed to be correct.. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 7 Safety 45 7.1 Risk assessment for radio remote controlled Machines The Manufacturer of the Machine on which the Radio Remote Control is to be installed shall make a full and proper risk assessment to determine whether the use and installation of the Autec Radio Remote Control is appropriate for the safe and effective operation of the Machine by a Radio Remote Control in the facility and for the purposes intended, also taking into account the reasonably foreseeable misuse, so that the installation, maintenance and operation of the Autec Radio Remote Control and all of its components are done solely and completely in accordance with this Manual, and with all local applicable laws, safety rules and standards (all of the foregoing referred to herein as Laws, Regulations and Standards). When carrying out the risk assessment to determine whether the Radio Remote Control may be installed on a Machine, the Manufacturer and/or Installer of the Radio Remote Control must comply with all Laws, Regulations and Standards, even local, regarding safety of the Machine and/or the installation, as well as the following warnings:
- Some Machines cannot be operated with a Radio Remote Control, such as set forth in paragraph 6.1).
- The radio link between the Units might be interrupted (see paragraph 4.1).
- All warnings regarding the installation, use and maintenance provided by Autec (see chapters 6, 8 and 9 ) must be considered.
- The "Take & Release" Radio Remote Control consists of two Transmitting Units.
- There is a delay between the release of a command in the Transmitting Unit and the deactivation of the corresponding output in the Receiving Unit (see paragraph 7.2).
- There is a delay between the activation of a command in the Transmitting Unit and the activation of the corresponding output in the Receiving Unit (see paragraph 7.2).
- Additional protection measures for the actuators may be necessary (see paragraph 7.3).
- It is possible that a command be enabled or disabled due to electrical and/or mechanical failure
(see paragraph 7.4).
- The Machine may be subject to stresses that might generate dangerous situations (by way of example: inertia, swinging load) if, when a movement is performed, a joystick is released very fast, or the stop function is enabled. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 46 7.2 Delay in command response time Under normal conditions, the delay between the activation/deactivation of a command in the Transmitting Unit and the activation/deactivation of the corresponding output in the Receiving Unit requires the "Command response time" indicated in the Technical Data (see paragraph 4.5). With poor radio link
(by way of example: EM interference, exceeded working range) this delay may protract up to the "Cut in time of the automatic stop function (ATS)" indicated in the Technical Data (see paragraph 4.5). As for the SAFETY outputs only, the "UMFS cut-in time" (see technical data in "Part D" of the Instruction Manual) adds up to this time. The Manufacturer, the Installer, the Owner, the User and/or the Maintenance Technician, must make sure that these delays never lead to a dangerous situation in the specific uses. 7.3 Inadvertent activation of commands The User shall operate with the Transmitting Unit in a correct manner, in accordance with the instructions for use and maintenance. If the Unit is used correctly, accidental contact with the User's body parts or with external bodies does not cause inadvertent activation of the actuators. Any action carried out on the Transmitting Unit, or on part of it, aiming at activating the actuators in a different way from the one indicated in the instructions for use constitutes an improper use of the Radio Remote Control. The User must use the Radio Remote Control in conformity with the instruction for use and maintenance and with all the Laws, the Regulations and the Standards, even local, in force in the country where the Radio Remote Control and the Machine are used; moreover, the User must always have the control of the Radio Remote Control and remain in the usage position, as described in the relevant specific part concerning the Transmitting Unit. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 47 The Machine Manufacturer and/or the Installer must assess and adopt possible additional protection measures for the actuators (by way of example:
commands requiring two-hand operation, dead-man function) if particular environments, equipment and working modes could generate risk situations, and if Laws, Regulations and Standards in force in the country where the Radio Remote Control and the Machine are used should require it. 7.4 Activation and/or deactivation of commands due to failure It is possible that a command be activated or deactivated due to electrical and/or mechanical failure, that may affect the Radio Remote Control and/or the Machine. The Machine Manufacturer and/or the Installer of the Radio Remote Control must carefully evaluate the possible consequences of such malfunction. If required by the risk assessment, implement protection measures to prevent, reduce and report potential hazardous situations. For further information see paragraph 4.4. If a command is activated and/or deactivated due to failure, carry out the following procedure:
1. Press the GSS or EMS pushbutton to bring the Machine to a safe state. 2. Disable the Radio Remote Control and stop using the system "Machine+Radio Remote Control" until the problem has been solved by implementing the necessary technical operations. 7.5 Latching functions Latching functions possibly available on the Radio Remote Control cannot be used for Machine's hazardous functions because they are never safety functions. These latching functions are available on the Radio Remote Control only upon request by the Machine Manufacturer and/or Installer, who has/have the responsibility to check if they are appropriate for a safe use of the Machine. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 48 8 Instructions for the User The chapter "Instructions for the User" in "Parts C" of the Instruction Manual contains the warnings and instructions for the use that add to those provided in this chapter. Therefore, please refer to that part of the Manual. FAILURE TO READ, UNDERSTAND AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS CONTAINED IN ALL PARTS OF THIS MANUAL FOR THE AUTEC RADIO REMOTE CONTROL MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. 8.1 Staff training: use and working conditions To ensure the correct use of a Radio Remote Control, the following must always be observed:
- Instructions and warnings provided in the Manual and any other documents related to the Radio Remote Control and to the radio remote controlled Machine
- All current provisions on safety at work and on work accident prevention
- All applicable Laws, Regulations and Standards, even local. When the Radio Remote Control is installed on Machines on board vehicles, switch off the Receiving Unit while the vehicle is travelling. Some drawings illustrating an incorrect use of a Radio Remote Control are provided here, by way of example and by no way of limitation. Those images do not cover all possible dangerous situations or incorrect use of a Radio Remote Control that must be considered and avoided by the Machine Manufacturer and the User. NO NO NO LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 49 YES YES YES 8.2 Warnings for the User The User must:
- Observe and comply with all instructions and warnings provided by the Machine Manufacturer.
- Observe and comply with all instructions and warnings provided by the Installer.
- Observe and comply with all instructions and warnings provided by the Person responsible for the Machine commissioning or making the Machine available for work.
- Observe and comply with all instructions and warnings provided in the Radio Remote Control Manual.
- Observe and comply with all applicable Laws, Regulations and Standards, even local.
- Operate the Autec Radio Remote Control only in accordance with this Manual and all of its Parts, and with all Autec warnings and instructions, and with applicable Laws, Regulations and Standards,even local.
- Operate the Machine operated by or through the Autec Radio Remote Control only in accordance with the Machine Manufacturers instructions and warnings, and with applicable Laws, Regulations and Standards, even local.
- Operate the Machine operated by or through the Autec Radio Remote Control only when he is in a safe condition and can perfectly see the whole Machine's working area.
- Immediately inform his supervisors and/or the people in charge for the working place and/or for the Machine about any possible failure, damage, loosening, anomalous wear, detachment and/or any other anomaly that may cause malfunction to the Radio Remote Control and/or to the Machine, or that may cause damage to people and/or property.
- Keep the Transmitting Unit secure and out of reach of unauthorized and unqualified Personnel. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 50 The User must not:
- Use the radio remote control without receiving prior complete training by qualified personnel, and if he does not completely master the instructions and warnings regarding the radio remote control usage
- Use the Radio Remote Control if he suspects malfunction on the Radio Remote Control, the Machine, or one of their components
- Use the Radio Remote Control if the warnings and labels on the Machine or the symbols on the Radio Remote Control cannot be read, are worn or dirty
- Allow the use of the Radio Remote Control to unauthorised and/or untrained Personnel. ADDITIONAL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE CONTAINED IN THE OTHER PARTS OF THIS MANUAL MUST BE FOLLOWED. If the Radio Remote Control User wears electronic devices (by way of example:
pacemaker, implantable cardiac defibrillator, hearing aids), the Transmitting Unit must be kept at least 15 cm away from those devices when in use. 8.2.1 Before starting to work Before starting the Radio Remote Control to work, the User must be positioned in a place that allows him:
- The direct control of the radio remote controlled Machine and of the load movements, and, at the same time
- A safe position with regard to the operation of the radio remote controlled Machine and/or the load movement, and with regard to other operations and/or activities and/or processes taking place in the working place. In addition to the above, when the cable control is used, the User must position themselves in a place that prevents them from stumbling on the cable control's cable and from being trapped/blocked by it. Always check that the mechanical operation of the GSS or EMS pushbutton is correct. If it is impossible or difficult to press this pushbutton, do not use the Radio Remote Control. Never start up or use the Transmitting Unit if the working conditions pose the risk of losing balance or of tripping. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 51 Start up the Transmitting Unit only to use it according to its intended use or for operational needs (by way of example: maintenance, checks): improper use may cause dangerous situations. Never start up or use the Transmitting Unit in closed spaces, with no or poor visibility, or outside the Radio Remote Control working range: in such cases it is still possible to establish a radio link between the Transmitting Unit and the Receiving Unit, thus causing the risk that unwanted commands be carried out by the radio remote controlled Machine. Get familiar with the relation between the actuators and the Machine's movements (this is indicated in the attached Technical Data Sheet) and learn symbols on the Transmitting Unit's panel (the used symbols are defined by the Machine Manufacturer and/or by the Installer depending on the effectiveness and the functions the Machine requires). 8.2.2 During normal operation Pay attention to the entire work area. Immediately press the GSS or EMS pushbutton when a hazardous situation occurs. Visually and directly follow all movements of the Machine and its load and remain inside the Radio Remote Control working range. Pay particular attention to warnings and visual and acoustic signals, and take all measurements and steps to avoid that movements of the remote controlled Machine may lead to hazardous situations for people and/or property. In case of malfunction, switch off the Transmitting Unit and disconnect power supply from the Receiving Unit: this way, the system "Machine+Radio Remote Control" is disabled; it must not be used until the problem has been solved by implementing the necessary technical operations. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 52 Pay attention to low battery signals: all dangerous operations (by way of example: hanging load) must be concluded before the battery is completely flat. Use the Transmitting Unit with the complements provided with the Radio Remote Control (by way of example: pouch, waist belt, shoulder harness) to avoid that it accidentally falls, or that actuators come into contact with external bodies, or that the Unit is used improperly. When "Take & Release" Radio Remote Controls are used, by releasing a Machine the User gives an explicit consent to the other Users, thus enabling them to take control of the Machine itself. Therefore, when a User releases a Machine or part of it, they must pay highest attention to possible Machine's movements, as it is no more under their control. 8.2.3 After using the Radio Remote Control Switch off the Transmitting Unit when not using the remote control to control the Machine, or when work is otherwise interrupted, even for short periods. Do not leave a load hanging or the Machine in dangerous conditions (even when charging the Unit or changing the battery). Never leave the Transmitting Unit unguarded in order to prevent unauthorised or non supervised use. If the Transmitting Unit has a "Key ID 0-1", always store it in a safe place each time it is removed. If this key is lost, the Radio Remote Control cannot work, since the Transmitting Unit needs the address stored in the key to work with its Receiving Unit. FAILURE TO DO SO CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DEATH AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 8.3 Operational use 53 The use of Radio Remote Controls is strictly limited to properly trained Personnel. All instructions for correct use are given in "Part C" of the Manual (related to the Transmitting Unit). When the Radio Remote Control is installed on Machines on board vehicles, switch off the Receiving Unit while the vehicle is travelling. Environmental working conditions are given in the following table. Temperature Relative Humidity Air pressure Transmitting Unit usage from 5 to 95%
from 70 to 106kPa Receiving Unit usage from 5 to 95%

- Keep the Transmitting Unit secure and out of reach of unauthorized and unqualified Personnel. ADDITIONAL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE CONTAINED IN THE OTHER PARTS OF THIS MANUAL MUST BE FOLLOWED. All fine-tuning, checking and maintenance actions carried out on the Radio Remote Control shall be verified and recorded by the Person in charge of carrying out maintenance on the Machine. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 55 Before any maintenance operation, disconnect the Receiving Unit from the power supply, using the devices and instructions provided by the Machine Manufacturer and by the Installer. After each maintenance operation, always make sure that all commands sent by the Transmitting Unit activate only the corresponding expected operations. In case of malfunction, switch off the Transmitting Unit and disconnect power supply from the Receiving Unit: this way, the system "Machine+Radio Remote Control" is disabled; it must not be used until the problem has been solved by implementing the necessary technical operations. After each maintenance operation, if a Unit has been opened, close it correctly, in order to maintain the protection degree from dust, contaminants and water:
- Make sure that the gasket is intact and correctly seated.
- Check that the housing parts correctly fit so that they overlap.
- Tighten the screws. 9.2 Routine maintenance Routine maintenance consists of operations needed to preserve the Radio Remote Control normal usage conditions, thus implementing fine-tuning, checks, planned replacement actions that necessarily arise from the normal use of the product. All given instructions must be followed correctly at each commissioning, that is:
- Whenever the Radio Remote Control and/or the Machine is installed or assembled
- Whenever the Machine location/position changes
- After special maintenance. Routine maintenance carried out as described in this Manual is fundamental for using the Radio Remote Control safely. Special applications may require more specific routine maintenance actions to be carried out at different periods (by way of example: if the working environment is particularly dirty, or temperature is very high or very low (see limits provided in paragraph 8.3), or in case of heavy application, or if it is used very frequently, some maintenance actions may be required more frequently depending on the instructions provided by the Machine Manufacturer and/or by the Installer). AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 56 When carrying out maintenance on the Machine, always disconnect power supply from the Receiving Unit. In the event of necessary maintenance on the Machine (by way of example: welding), disconnect all the electrical connections of the Receiving Unit. 9.2.1 Daily routine maintenance Before starting to work:
- Make sure that the symbols on panel on the Transmitting Unit and on the Receiving Unit are clearly visible and replace the panel if necessary.
- Make sure that the plates on the Transmitting Unit and on the Receiving Unit are readable and intact (refer to the specific part in the Manual concerning the Transmitting Unit and the Receiving Unit).
- Check that the mechanical operation of the GSS or EMS pushbutton is correct.
- Make sure that the Transmitting Unit and the Receiving Unit are undamaged in all their parts.
- Check the Receiving Unit status and remove any material from it (dust, remnants, object, etc.):
never use solvents or flammable/corrosive materials for cleaning, and do not use high-
pressure water cleaners or steam cleaners.
- Check that the wiring of the Receiving Unit is intact and connected. During normal operation:
etc.).
- Do not damage the Transmitting Unit (avoid falls, bumps, contact with water, fluids or liquids,
- Pay attention not to let materials (by way of example: concrete, sand, grease, dirt, lime, dust, etc.) deposit on the Transmitting Unit because they can compromise its use and safety. After using the Radio Remote Control:
- Clean the Transmitting Unit: never use solvents or flammable/corrosive materials and do not use water jet cleaners, or air pressure or steam pressure cleaners.
- Store the Transmitting Unit in clean and dry places. 9.2.2 Three-month routine maintenance At least every three months:
that are carried out by the Machine.
- Check the correct correspondence between the commands that are sent and the manoeuvres
- Make sure that the SAFETY outputs (of UMFS function) only activate after the Radio Remote Control has started, and when at least one movement command is sent to the Machine. Also make sure that the SAFETY outputs disable when all the movement commands are released. This is safety critical maintenance: it is necessary to keep a record (date, signature, comments) showing that this check has been regularly carried out. Keep the record together with other installation documents.
- Make sure that all the outputs in the Receiving Unit operate correctly, and check that each output activates when the corresponding operation is enabled and deactivates when the operation is disabled. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 57
- Start up the Radio Remote Control and check in the Receiving Unit that the STOP outputs activate. Then press the GSS or the EMS pushbutton and make sure that the STOP outputs in the Receiving Unit deactivate. Before testing the STOP outputs, make sure that no dangerous situations may arise due to the activation of the STOP outputs in the Receiving Unit. 9.3 Special maintenance Special maintenance consists of repairs needed due to Radio Remote Control failure, damage or malfunction, and their aim is to restore the original usage and working conditions. Special maintenance may be performed only by qualified Maintenance Technicians, that is to say, by skilled technical Personnel with specific competence and knowledge of Autec Radio Remote Control, belonging to the Autec's service network, or explicitly authorised by Autec. When performing special maintenance operations, the Instruction Manual for the use and maintenance of the Autec Radio Remote Control must be available and undamaged in all its parts. Only original Autec spare parts and materials provided by Autec shall be used for the replacement of parts and/or for special maintenance operations. When seeking assistance or replacement parts from Autec or its authorized distributors or service centres, the following must be provided:
- Radio Remote Control serial number
- Purchase date
- Description of the problem found
- Address and telephone number of the place where the Radio Remote Control is being used
(with the name of the Person to contact)
- Local Radio Remote Control supplier. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 58 9.4 Additional maintenance operations in environments with corrosive agents If the Radio Remote Control is used in environments where corrosive agents are present (by way of example: sea water, salt fog, salt...), apply grease to the electrical connections to protect them. Only use electrically non-conductive, polyalphaolefin and silicate-based grease for electrical contacts. Do not use polyether-, polyoilester- and polyphenyl ether-based grease. One possible grease to be used is Electric Grease CN 4070 (Macon Research). Check and replace grease as frequently as shown in the following table:
Type of connection Grease check frequency Re-greasing frequency Connector for external antenna every 4-6 months If dirt and impurities are found Receiving Unit's plug every 4-6 months If dirt and impurities are found Connectors for cable control of Transmitting Unit and of Receiving Unit 1 month Contacts of Transmitting Unit, battery charger and battery weekly Key ID 0-1 weekly If dirt and impurities are found, and once a year anyway If dirt and impurities are found, and once every three months anyway If dirt and impurities are found, and once every three months anyway It is recommended to disconnect the cable control cable and to store it in a protected place when it is not in use. When carrying out this kind of maintenance operations, follow these recommendations:
- Make sure that the surface of electrical connections is covered with a layer of grease and add it if necessary.
- Contact the support service of the Machine Manufacturer if evident oxidation is detected. LIUDTH005_eng-00 AUTEC 9.5 Preventive replacement of the Radio Remote Control's electromechanical components 59 9.5.1 Actuators (joysticks, pushbuttons and switches) As provided by the Manufacturer of each actuator in the corresponding technical specification, each actuator of the Transmitting Unit can be used for a defined maximum number of operations, as shown in the table below. The maximum number of operations must not be considered as a warranty period. The Maintenance Technician must replace joysticks, pushbuttons and selectors on the Transmitting Unit before they reach the maximum number of operations, even though they are still working. This replacement prevents possible failure and dangerous situations (by way of example: inadvertent activation and/or deactivation of the command activated by the actuator).

1. Move all other Transmitting Units in the working area away from the Autec Transmitting Unit in use to avoid possible radio interference. 2. Bring the Autec Transmitting Unit closer to the matching Autec Receiving Unit to avoid possible radio interference, always positioning yourself in a safe place and with full view of the Machine, its operational area and the load, if any. In a "Take & Release" Radio Remote Control, if you cannot take control of the Receiving Unit, even from a short distance, make sure that it is not already controlled by the other Transmitting Unit. 3. Determine if the problem lies with the Radio Remote Control or with the Machine: to that purpose, you need to try to control the Machine with another control station (if any),different from the Radio Remote Control. If the problem persists after this attempt, you need to fix the Machine: follow the instructions provided by the Machine Manufacturer. Otherwise, the problem lies with the Autec Radio Remote Control, so you need to carry out further checks (see paragraph 10.3). 10.1 Radio Remote Controls with "Data Feedback" function It is still possible that the Transmitting Unit sends commands to control the Machine even if the Data Feedback function does not work properly (refer to "Data Feedback function" in "Part C"
of the Manual), or if there is no information and/or signals coming from it. When the display or the LED array does not work, please contact the support service of the Machine Manufacturer, even if none of the problems indicated in paragraph 10.3 has been detected. 10.2 Radio Remote Controls with cable control Possibly use the wire control to check if radio interference occurs. On the contrary, if you want to check that the wire control works properly:
1. Connect the cable to the Transmitting Unit and to the Receiving Unit. 2. Check that the movement carried out by the Machine correspond to the commands sent by the Transmitting Unit. 10.3 Solutions in case of malfunction Look up in Part C and/or in Part D of the Manual to identify the Radio Remote Control malfunction signalled by light signals on the Units. If the problem persists after attempting the suggested solution, contact the support service of the Machine Manufacturer. AUTEC LIUDTH005_eng-00 62 11 Decommissioning and disposal 11.1 Decommissioning If you want to remove the Receiving Unit from the Machine:
- Make sure that the Receiving Unit and the Machine are not powered.
- Remove all electrical connections between the Receiving Unit and the Machine. If the Radio Remote Control needs to be stored after it has been decommissioned, follow the directions provided in chapter 5. If the Radio Remote Control needs to be dismantled after it has been decommissioned, follow the directions provided in paragraph 11.2. 11.2 Disposal When disposing of a Radio Remote Control, its components must be managed as separate waste. When disposing of a Radio Remote Control, please comply with the provisions and/or the regulations in force in the country where it is used. 11.2.1 Waste disposal in the European Union: Directive 2012/19/EU In the European Union, all electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) such as radio remote controls must be correctly managed to reduce their environmental impact and protect human health. Therefore, different collection and recycling systems are set out for such equipment. The symbol consisting of a crossed-out wheeled bin indicates that such EEE must be disposed of in conformity with Directive 2012/19/EU. The symbol with a crossed-out bin provided on the radio remote control indicates that this product must be separately collected from other waste at the end of its life cycle. Separate collection of end-of-life radio remote controls is set up and managed by the manufacturer. Users who want to dispose of radio remote controls need to contact their manufacturer to receive directions about the separate collection system chosen for end-of-life products. As an alternative, it is possible to bring any equipment with no dimension more than 25 cm to retail shops with sales areas relating to EEE of at least 400 m2, free of charge and with no obligation to buy any new equivalent equipment. Proper separate collection of end-of-life Radio remote controls and their subsequent recycling, treatment and environmentally sound disposal contributes to preventing possible negative impacts on the environment and on human health, and fosters the reuse and/or recycling of materials radio remote controls are made of.
