1. INTRODUCTION

This manual is a guide to the correct use of the range of ITOWA multi-frequency remote control sets.

These sets have been specially designed for the wireless remote control of all types of electro-
mechanical machinery.

FM frequency and FFSK codification are used for the radio transmission of control signals. The most
advanced technology and the latest generation microprocessors have been incorporated in the
electronic design. This means total safety when using the radio control.

To avoid unwanted manoeuvres, the system is provided with several safety mechanisms that are
described further on. Manoeuvres are immediately blocked if any anomalies are automatically
detected,

The system operates in the UHF frequency band, between the 433.050 and 434.775 MHz frequencies
(UN 32 of the C.N.A.F.), or between the 868.000 and 870.000 MHz (UN 39 of the C.N.A.F.) as
stipulated in the telecommunications legislation of the I-ETS 300 220, and is certified at the time this
manual was published, in the following countries.

2. GENERAL RULES FOR THE CORRECT AND SAFE USE OF THE


RADIO CONTROL
For maximum safety when handling the radio control, the user must follow the rules described in this
manual.

Whenever the crane has to be manoeuvred, the radio control operator must be in a place where he
can view the whole manoeuvre being performed. If this is not possible, he should place himself where
he can see as much of the manoeuvre as he can, and coordinate with another person when he cannot
see. Never perform a manoeuvre which may be partially uncontrolled.

Do not leave the radio control transmitter on the ground or on metal blocks. If you must do so,
activate the emergency stop (STOP BUTTON) of the radio control and turn the key or selector switch
to the OFF position.

At the end of the working day, or if the radio control operator has to leave the radio control, he should
activate the emergency stop (STOP BUTTON) of the radio control, turn the key or selector switch to
the OFF position, place the battery in the charger for recharging and turn off the crane.

3. DESCRIPTION OF THE SET


The remote controls of the SYNTHESIZED range are made up of the following elements:

• TRANSMITTER

• RECEIVER

• BATTERIES

• CHARGER

3.1. TRANSMITTER

It is a sealed push button box (IP 65 protection) in highly resistant plastic material. The manoeuvre
pushbuttons and display leds are in the front part. A housing for interchangeable batteries is provided
at the back.

As indicated the block diagram (Fig. 3.1), the transmitter consists of three parts: push buttons, control
circuit and UHF transmitter.

SWITCHES MODULATOR TRANSMITTER
CONTROLS

Fig. 3.1 Block diagram of the transmitter.

Orders from the push buttons are picked up by the microprocessor, which draws up the FFSK signal
adding direction and control codes, and injects it to the UHF transmitter. The transmitter incorporates
the signal of this order to the carrier frequency, which after filtering, will be transmitted by the antenna.

3.2. RECEIVER
The receiver unit consists of a cabinet in which the various electronic systems are located to receive
orders and activate / deactivate the corresponding relays for each manoeuvre of the crane.

The receiver unit can be divided into three blocks (Fig. 3.17), UHF receiver, control circuit and relay
circuit.

UHF CONTROL RELAYS TO MANOEUVRE


RECEIVER CIRCUIT CONTACTORS

Fig. 3.17 Block Diagram of the receiver

The signal received by the antenna is injected to the receiver, which supplies a low frequency signal in
FFSK code to the micro-processor. The control module checks that the information received is free of
errors, and then draws up the corresponding orders to activate the relay.

In the event of anomalies in the working order of hardware or software, there are specific circuits in
the control circuit, that deactivate the radio control work manoeuvres.

For greater safety, all surveillance circuits are doubled.

3.3. BATTERY CHARGER

The ITOWA battery charger can quickly and safely charge Ni-MH and Ni-Cd batteries. The batteries
supplied are in Ni-MH, from which the charger extracts their maximum power. The charger is capable
of detecting faulty batteries, short circuits or overheating, and can recuperate batteries that have been
flat for a long time.

The battery charger has two display leds, one for power supply indicating that the unit is connected to
the mains, and the other indicating that the batteries are being charged. When the battery is inserted,
the charger starts charging without checking the battery for 20 minutes. After this time, the battery
charger checks the battery status and charges accordingly for each battery. The end of the process is
indicated when the charge display led turns off. Complete charging lasts less than 8 hours. For safety,
the maximum charging time is limited to 12 hours.

The charging process should be done at a temperature between –10ºC and 50ºC. If , after the initial
20 minutes, the charge display led continues flashing, it means that charging is not being done
correctly, either because the temperature is wrong, or because the battery is too flat. In this case, the
charger will perform a slow safety pre-charging process in to order to recondition the battery if
possible, during with time the charging led will flash. Once this is over , it will continue with the normal
charging process.

5. INSTALLATION AND START-UP

5.1. INSTALLATION OF THE RECEIVER

The control receiver should be installed in a vertical position, fastened to the structure of the machine,
with the antenna directed to the floor, and in a protected place so that when working, it does not get
knocked.

ATTENTION IT IS IMPORTANT TO PROPERLY CLOSE THE COVER OF THE RECEIVER TO


ENSURE SEALING, AS WATER LEAKING INSIDE MAY DAMAGE THE RECEIVER.
THE GUARANTEE DOES NOT COVER ANY BREAKDOWNS CAUSED BY
INCORRECTLY CLOSING THE COVER.

It is recommended to connect the set with a standard multi-cable flexible hose used to connect push
button boxes by cable. This hose will be connected to the set at one end, and the other will be
connected to a multi-pole connector identical to the one used by the machine to interconnect with a
push button box by cable. This enables the remote control or the cable control to be interchanged
simply by connecting or disconnecting the flexible hose.

ATTENTION: THE HORN RELAY SHOULD NOT BE CONNECTED TO CONTROL ANY OTHER
MANOEUVRE UNLESS OTHERWISE INDICATED.

The common manoeuvre lead should have a suitable diameter, not over 2.5 mm. nor less than 1.5
mm., nor should two 0.75 cables be placed. The common manoeuvre lead should not, under any
circumstances, be less than the diameter of the manoeuvre leads.

5.2. POWER SUPPLY OF THE RECEIVER

ATTENTION: CONNECTIONS SHOULD BE MADE SO THAT WHEN THE GENERAL SWITCH IS


TURNED OFF, THE REMOTE CONTROL RECEIVER IS ALSO TURNED OFF.

The receiver can be connected to three different alternating voltages (230 Vac, 115 Vac, or 48 Vac) ,
except the BETON receiver that connects to a set voltage of 24 Vdc, through a three-position selector
located inside the set. It is essential to ensure that the selector is in the correct position in accordance
with the voltage to be supplied to the receiver, before connecting the set. All receivers leave the
factory with the voltage pre-set at 230 Vac and 1A, but as a precautionary measure, it is advisable to
check that the voltage is correctly selected.

.A three-wire 0.75 mm2 section cable should be used to connect to the mains, connecting two cables
to voltage and the third to earth (green-yellow).

5.3. START-UP

Once the receiver is installed and when the general switch of the machine is turned on, the LCD
display of the receiver will light up indicating the current operating channel xx, which could be from 01
to 70 or from 1 to 81 (depending on the frequency band). The receiver is now ready to operate and
receive manoeuvres from the transmitter.

Insert a charged battery and switch off the emergency stop button (STOP BUTTON). When the
START push button is pressed, the remote control will start to operate by turning on the stop and start
relays, and the general contactor will be interlocked. The TX ON led will turn on indicating that the
remote control is working correctly. From now on, if any push button is pressed, the corresponding
manoeuvre will be activated. The manoeuvre selected will continue to be activated while the push
button remains pressed. The receiver display indicates the activated relays with a I and the
deactivated relays with a 0 .

In order to keep the radio channel free and stop the operator from leaving the machine turned on
when it is not being used, the remote control is supplied with an automatic stop system. This system
starts operating after 180 seconds from when the last manoeuvre was performed, indicating the
following message in the display:

ATTENTION: REMEMBER THAT ACTIVATING THE STOP BUTTON IS THE SAME AS STOPPING
THE REMOTE CONTROL. THIS MEANS THAT ANY RELAY OF THE RECEIVER
THAT WAS ACTIVATED IS IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF.

The remote control is supplied with an indicator led of the state of the battery. When it detects that the
battery is at a certain discharging level (in reserve), the BAT OK led starts to flash and the horn relay
turns on intermittently. After approximately half an hour, the transmitter turns off and the battery led
stays on permanently.

When the battery is in reserve, it is recommended to replace it with the second battery and insert the
first one to charge. Under normal conditions, the batteries can work for 11 hours plus 30 minutes
reserve time.

ATTENTION: IF THE BATTERY IS IN RESERVE, THE FREQUENCY CANNOT BE CHANGED.

PLEASE FULLY CHARGE THE BATTERIES

6. MAINTENANCE OF RADIO CONTROL SETS


The equipment you have purchased is manufactured using top quality materials ensuring perfect
working order and operation of the remote control. Similarly to all machinery or equipment, the remote
control requires minimum basic maintenance tasks that should be performed. In order to increase the
life span of the apparatus, we advise you to carefully follow these preservation and maintenance
recommendations.

As a general rule, it is advisable to periodically service the sealing devices that protect both the
receiver and transmitter from weathering. Servicing should be carried out by an ITOWA authorised
Technical Assistance Service, as incorrect sealing may cause irreparable damage to the equipment.

6.1. MAINTENANCE OF THE TRANSMITTER

ATTENTION: BEFORE HANDLING THE TRANSMITTER, TURN OFF THE GENERAL SWITCH OF
THE MACHINE

The remote control requires minimum maintenance. The good condition of the transmitter should be
checked paying special attention to joints and rubber protections of the push buttons. The silicone
caps of the push buttons should be replaced if they have been cut or damaged as a result of incorrect
use of the apparatus.

ATTENTION: DAMAGED RUBBER OF PUSH BUTTONS SHOULD BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY,


OTHERWISE WATER MAY DAMAGE THE TRANSMITTER.

6.2. RECEIVER MAINTENANCE

Maintenance of the receiver is identical to the transmitter. The following parts must be checked:

• The antenna connection (check that it is clean and free of rust).

• The connection between the receiver and electrical equipment of the machine.

• Contacts of the manoeuvre relays.

• The correct working order of the active and passive safety circuits.

• The correct working order of the LCD display messages.

• The receiver cover should be properly sealed.

To check the working order of the active safety circuit, simply press the STOP BUTTON. The general
contactor should drop immediately.

To check the working order of the passive safety circuit, remove the battery from the transmitter and
the general contactor should drop after 1.9 seconds.

6.3. MAINTENANCE OF THE CHARGER

Maintenance of the charger is carried out at a similar frequency to the set. The following parts should
be checked:

• Contacts and battery holders (which should be clean and free of rust).

• Springs (ensure that they are sufficiently taut to guarantee contact).

ATTENTION: IF YOU DETECT ANY ANOMALY IN THE WORKING ORDER OF THE EQUIPMENT,
IT SHOULD BE IMMEDIATELY SWITCHED OFF. REPAIRS SHOULD BE CARRIED
OUT BY A TECHNICAL SERVICE AUTHORISED BY ITOWA.

ORIGINAL ITOWA SPARE PARTS SHOULD ALWAYS BE USED. IT IS NOT


PERMITTED TO ALTER THE SPECIFICATIONS OF THE RADIO FREQUENCY
SYSTEM OR THE CIRCUITS INVOLVED IN THE SAFETY SYSTEMS.

If you have any doubt or enquiry, contact our Technical Assistance Service or any of our authorised
technicians.

6.4. CHARGING THE BATTERIES

The batteries supplied with ITOWA equipment do not have a memory effect, meaning that they can be
charged without having to the totally flat. In order to lengthen their life span, it is recommended to use
one battery in the morning and another in the afternoon. One battery can then be charged while the
other is being used.

USER MANUAL

8. TROUBLESHOOTING
If an anomaly occurs in the equipment, check the following:

1) Location of the breakdown:

Determine whether the breakdown is in the remote control equipment or in the electrical circuit of
the machine. To check this, simply connect the original pushbuttons to the machine (or from the
cabin), and check that the crane is operating properly. If the machine is working correctly, it means
that the breakdown is in the remote control, otherwise the breakdown is in the machine.

2) Checking for interferences (not valid for GCFI versions):

If the transmitter loses range or if the equipment constantly needs to be reset, there may be an
interference in the selected channel.

Check that the selected channel is free of interferences by following the procedures described in
section 7.4 (page 7-5).

3) Checking the transmitter:

Turn on the remote control by releasing the STOP BUTTON and pressing the START button. The
“TX OK” led should activate. If this indicator lights up, the problem is in the receive. If this is not
the case, check that the battery is charged. If the “BAT OK” led is flashing, it means that the
battery is on stand-by and the equipment can still transmit signals but will stop transmitting shortly.
If the “BAT OK” is on, it means that the battery is flat and must be replaced by a fully charged
battery.

If the battery is charged correctly, check that the pushbuttons operate properly. If they do, the
transmitter will have to be repaired by the Technical Assistance Service authorised by ITOWA.

4) Checking the receiver:

Check the power supply. The receiver display should be on; if it is not, check the power supply
circuit connection.

If the power supply is correct, press the START button of the transmitter and check whether the
stop and start relays are activated. If they are, check the manoeuvre fuse. If the stop and start
relays are not activated, check that there is voltage. If there is, the receiver must be repaired by
the Technical Assistance Service authorised by ITOWA.

Check that the antenna and connection to the receiver are in good condition.

ATTENTION: ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS SHOULD BE USED IN ALL REPAIRS. ALL SAFETY
FEATURES INCLUDING THOSE OF THE TRANSMITTER AND UHF RECEIVER
SHOULD NOT BE MODIFIED.
