Radio remote control description 7 LIDYNE00-07 1 radio remote control description 1.1 How the radio remote control works Industrial radio remote controls are used to control machines from a distance, without physical connection between the user and the machine (i.e. wires or connecting cables). They consist of a portable transmitting unit, from which the user remotely controls the machine, and a receiving unit installed on board the machine itself. 1.2 Technical Data Command response time .................................................................................... 80-130ms Active stop time .............................. ...

AUTEC - Dynamic Series 1.3 applications Dynamic series radio remote controls can be installed on hoisting and material handling machines and on machines for moving, raising and transporting people (e.g. hydraulic cranes, aerial work platforms, telehandlers, concrete pumps). Dynamic series radio remote controls cannot be installed: - on machines working in zones with 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 ac power supply (if ...

Radio remote control description 9 LIDYNE00-07 1.5� Classification�of�commands Commands sent by the transmitting unit are classified according to their type. 1.5.1 command type: analogue, digital or direction command Commands sent by the transmitting unit can either be analogue or digital. 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 ar ...

AUTEC - Dynamic Series 1.6.2 Protection against unintended movements from the standstill position (UmFS) This safety function protects the system “machine+radio remote control” from unintended movements, namely machine movements not activated intentionally by the user, but resulting from possible electrical and mechanical failure of the radio remote control. Such safety function checks the neutral (rest) position of the actuators that control the machine's movements. Each time one of those actuators is operated, the transmitting unit sends both the movement command and the “SAFETY” command. Depend ...

Risk assessment 11 LIDYNE00-07 2 risk assessment When using and installing an industrial radio remote control it is therefore always necessary to evaluate if the machine can be radio remote controlled. In fact, as required by standards ISO 12100 and ISO 14121, all machines must undergo risk assessment and related analysis. The radio remote control can only be installed and used if this assessment gives positive results. The machine manufacturer and/or the person who decides upon radio remote control installation and use is responsible for this risk assessment. autec cannot be held responsible if this assessment has not been carri ...

2.1.3 Protection from unintended activation The transmitting unit housing is manufactured so that it protects the actuators from unintentional activation, while meeting at the same time the operating needs, the comfort requirements and law limits. Assessment shall be made to establish possible additional protection measures for the actuators (i.e. commands requiring two-hand operation, “dead-man” function) if particular environments, equipment and working modes could cause accidental bumps to the actuators. 2.1.4 command activation and loss of command Please consider that it is possible to unint ...

Warnings for use 13 LIDYNE00-07 3 Warnings for use In addition to all instructions provided by the machine manufacturer, by the installer of the radio remote control and by the person responsible for the safety of the work area, users shall always respect the following warnings. 3.1 Before starting to work Stand in a position that allows the direct supervision of the remote controlled machine and its load, and stay in a place ensuring the user's safety conditions in respect of other operations and/or activities and/or processes that are carried out in the working environment. always check that the mechanical operation of the STOP ...

AUTEC - Dynamic Series 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, disable the system “machine+radio remote control” until the problem has been completely solved. Use the transmitting unit in a simple and comfortable way, avoiding accidental falls. The waist belt and the shoulder harness pr ...

Radio remote control life cycle 15 LIDYNE00-07 4 radio remote control life cycle To ensure safe and long-lasting operation of industrial radio remote controls, carefully follow the instructions provided for each stage of the product life cycle. 4.1 Transportation and storage Radio remote controls must always be transported and stored inside their packing until they are installed on the machine.

Radio remote control life cycle 17 LIDYNE00-07 Before any maintenance operation, remove the battery from the transmitting unit and disconnect power supply from the receiving unit. after each maintenance operation, always make sure that all commands sent by the transmitting unit only activate the corresponding expected operations. In case of malfunction or damaged parts, disable the system “machine+radio remote control” until the problem has been completely solved. after each maintenance operation, if a unit has been opened, close it correctly, in order not to endanger its protection degree from dust and water: check that the ...

AUTEC - Dynamic Series During normal operation: - avoid causing structural damage to the transmitting unit - make sure that materials that could endanger the transmitting unit usage and safety (such as concrete, sand, lime, dust) do not deposit on it. After using the radio remote control: - clean the transmitting unit: never use solvents or flammable/corrosive materials and do not use high-pressure water cleaners or steam cleaners - store the transmitting unit in clean and dry areas. 4.4.3 Three-month routine maintenance Every three months: - remove dust or deposit of material from the receiving unit: ...
