Page 51: Specific Tandem Mode Settings
Specific Tandem Mode Settings 9.1. Receiver Swapping A ↔ B (AUX1 + F5) This feature swaps the selection indicator of the AUX1 button. This feature is used when paired in a tandem because each transmitter automatically puts the primary paired receiver as A and the secondary paired receiver as B. Use this to switch naming on any transmitters that do not match site naming for crane A and B. Swapping configuration is indicated by LEDs A and B: • The selection indicators of receivers A and B are not swapped if LED A is on and LED B is off • The selection indicators of receivers A and B are swapped if LED A is off and LED B is on. Products must be ready for configuration (perform steps in Chapter 7.1).

Page 53: Release Function (Ungroup) (Aux1 + F3)
9.2. Release Function (Ungroup) (AUX1 + F3) This setting allows you to configure the release of one or more receivers that work with the transmitter. If automatic release mode is enabled, when the transmitter stops operating, the paired receiver(s) will be released and another transmitter can connect later. In the voluntary release mode, the operator must voluntarily release or not the receivers. Products are configured by default in automatic release mode. Release mode is indicated by the pair of A and B LEDs: • For automatic release, LED A is on and LED B is off • For voluntary manual release, LED A is off and LED B is on. Products must be ready for configuration (perform steps in Chapter 7.1). Note: When you change this parameter, it is recommended to do the same change on both receivers. So this procedure needs to be done with the primary Tx of each Rx. - Page 54 AUX1 AUX2 AUX1 AUX2 AUX1 AUX2 AUX1 AUX2 Confirm the value by turning End of transmission: the ON / OFF switch to START. • Receiver light turns off During transmission: • Transmitter shuts down • Battery and radio LEDs flash and restarts. alternately • Receiver light turns on. - 54 - Xpair - 355040A...

Page 55: Sign Of Life Between Receivers (F1 + F5)
9.3. Sign of Life Between Receivers (F1 + F5) In Tandem mode a sign of life is exchanged between the two receivers. This function is only valid when the transmitter controls both receivers (A + B). The sign of life determines if one of the receivers has released its safety relays or if radio communication between the two is broken. Products are configured at the factory in active life sign mode. Configuration of the sign of life mode is indicated by the pair of A and B LEDs: • Sign of life is enabled if LED A is on and LED B is off • Sign of life is disabled if LED A is off and LED B is on. If the sign of life disappears and one of the receivers has gone to safety, the second receiver will go to safety (this condition is only true, if the communication between receivers is available). If the sign of life disappears but the two receivers are still in operation (safety relay active), only the function output relay commands are disabled. The passive stop delay between 2 receivers (no communication between the receivers) is 900 ms. Products must be ready for configuration (if the transmitter and receiver are not powered on and unlocked, perform the steps in Chapter 7.1).

10. Installation Instructions 10.1. Transmitter Different button functions are identified by self-adhesive labels to be stuck on the transmitter box in the space provided for this purpose each button. Labels are delivered in sheets to be used according to the application. 10.2. Radio Receiver Position The receiver should be mounted in a protected place from shock and weather. The antenna should be as far away as possible from the power cables (power supply, motor, drive, etc.) but remain in an area favorable to radio reception. It must be located within sight of the operator handling the equipment. There should be no metallic masses near it. The antenna will be located high above the operator handling the transmitter. There should be no metal between „ the operator and the antenna. The antenna is directed towards the working areas of the transmitter (downwards in the case of a hoist). „ The correct orientation of the antenna is shown in the figure below: „ Xpair - 355040A - 57 -... -
Page 58: Mounting The Receiver
If the installation of the receiver does not allow the operator to see the antenna, it is advisable to offset the receiver antennas under the beams, and point them vertically towards the radio control area, as shown below: If several devices are equipped with radio controls, working in the same vicinity (e.g., in a factory), each transmitter must carry clear information that tells the operator which equipment it controls. Similarly, the operator must be able to identify the controls corresponding to the directions of movement of the equipment being steered. 10.3.

Page 60: Connecting The Safety Relays
10.6. Connecting the safety relays The safety relays K14 and K16 are used to cut the main power supply source via 2 external contactors. The 2 safety relays RS1 and RS2 are activated when the radio link is established between the transmitter and receiver, and are automatically maintained until an active or passive stop (safety button pressed, radio link lost, battery discharged, "standby" function activated, etc.). The function safety relay K15 is used to cut the equipment controls shared line. It is active only if one of the function relays is active. Below is an example of the output wiring: Contactors C1 and C2 are guided contacts, to be integrated in the system safety chain * using overvoltage limiter circuits extends the service life of the relay contacts (e.g.: RC circuits in AC, diode + zener in DC, etc.) Using an external contactor requires evaluating the performance that the system as a whole can achieve. The function relays K1, K2, K3, K4, K5, K6, K7, K8, K9, K10, K11, K12, K13 are not part of the safety function. Only the safety relays K14, K15 and K16 are monitored. - 60 - Xpair - 355040A... -
