Press button 1 to go to About page. 3. Press button 4 to return to previous page. 16 USERS MANUAL | ERGO-S 6. Theory of Operation Your ERGO-S transmitter works with a receiving device to transfer machine control commands via radio frequency to your machine. The transmitter electronically generates a carrier frequency that allows it to communicate with the receiver without the use of cables or wires. The receiver then converts the carrier frequency information into discrete machine control outputs that interface with your machines controls. Each transmitter and receiver that comprises a system is programmed with a unique address code. This code ensures that machine operations are safe, and that other remote control equipment cannot unintentionally control your machine. The receiver only accepts commands from the transmitter with the same address code. The receiver and transmitter have the address code set at the factory. 6.1 Stop Function The most important feature of the radio remote control system is the STOP function. When the transmitter is turned on, it performs a self-test to confirm that communications are within designated parameters. If an error is detected, the transmitter will not transmit any signals. The transmitter sends the STOP pushbutton status along with the specified machine functions. This method confirms that ongoing operations are safe. If the STOP pushbutton is pressed, the data telegram changes so that only the stop command is transmitted. No other motion command data is sent. This special data telegram places the receiver in Safe Mode, and the stop relays in the receiver open. All other machine functions are completely disabled in the receiver. The STOP button on the transmitter is only a remote stop and will operate only when the transmitter is powered up. Pressing the STOP pushbutton does not ensure the machine will come to a complete stop. STOP button functionality is subject to the wiring of receiver STOP relays to machine emergency stop circuit and controlled machine logic where applicable. ALWAYS test the STOP function at the beginning of every operation session or when there is change of operator. 17 USERS MANUAL | ERGO-S 7. Changing the battery You may power your transmitter with a Hetronic rechargeable battery inserted into the bottom of the transmitter. Follow the instructions below to ensure best performance of your ERGO-S transmitter and prolonged battery lifetime. 1. Confirm that your batteries are fully-charged. See Recharging Your Batteries section below. 2. Slide the recharged battery into the battery compartment at the bottom of the transmitter as shown, and snap it into place. Figure 11. Inserting Battery 7.1 Recharging your Batteries The two methods which can be used to charge the batteries using the ERGO-S charging unit are:
The user can choose to remove the battery from the transmitter and place it directly in the charging unit. Else, the user can opt to charge the battery by placing the whole transmitter unit in the charger docking station. Figure 12. Charging ERGO-S Battery 18 USERS MANUAL | ERGO-S When the transmitter (or the battery) is placed in the docking station, the LED labelled CHARGE flashes for two seconds, and then stays lit during the charging process. When the battery is fully charged, the READY LED lights up and the CHARGE LED go off. NOTE: Charging time could take up to 3.5 hours, depending on the condition of the battery. Leave the battery in the charger until it is needed. The charger supplies a trickle charge but it will not over-charge the battery. The charger docking station base can be dismantled from the bench-top state to obtain a wall-
mount charger instead. Figure 13. Bench-top or wall-mount variations EXPLOSIVE GASES AND FLYING DEBRIS can cause death or serious injury. Use only Hetronic replacement rechargeable batteries. Use of unauthorized replacement batteries could cause a battery explosion resulting in injury or death of the operator or other people in the work area. 7.2 Battery Disposal AVOID ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION. Recycle your rechargeable batteries according to local recycling rules and regulations. If you have questions or problems operating your battery charger, please contact your nearest Hetronic dealer or service center. Standard Hetronic rechargeable batteries are the Lithium Ion type. These batteries have no memory effect when charging a battery that is not fully discharged. 7.3 Prolonged Battery Life Avoid battery misuse, over charging, overheating or regular dropping. This can cause permanent damage to the cells. Refer to Section 9 (Table 4) for battery specifications. Never keep a fully charged battery at elevated temperatures. Battery pack does not die suddenly but the runtime gradually shortens as the capacity fades. Keeping the charge in the 40% to 80% range will prolong battery life. Unfortunately there is no avoiding fact that battery has a finite life, after which they will certainly degrade. Following these basic tips can help delay the inevitable. 19 USERS MANUAL | ERGO-S 8.
