General system description 2 — 3
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM.
The Scanreco RC 400 remote control system has been specially developed for hydraulically driven mobile cranes and machinery. The system is a digital remote control system based on an extremely advanced micro-processor technology. Years of exhaustive and demanding testing have shown that the remote control system can cope with the roughest of environments.
The remote control system is tested and approved for use in, amongst others, power stations, with a sky lift for personnel, close to work areas using blasting , on oil platforms, military establishments or other areas with explosive environments. The system is protected against electromagnetic and radio frequency radiation and can be installed onto all hydraulic valve types ( voltage, current, pulse width, or protocol steered ) found on the market.
In its basic form the remote control system is comprised of a portable control unit with manoeuvre levers for proportional control and switches for ON/OFF functions, an electronicbox with connection cable for driving proportional electro-hydraulic slide controllers.
Digitally coded control information (lever deflection and switch position) is sent from the control unit via electric cable, opto fibre cable or via radio to the electronicbox. The control unit and electronicbox translate the magnitude and direction of the manouevre lever deflections and switch positions to corresponding valve function speed and direction and thus crane movement.
2. PORTABLE CONTROL UNIT ( for cable, opto fibre cable, and radio operation ).
General description of the portable control unit.
The portable control unit is impact and weather resistant and is light weight and compact.
Controls are available for 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 manoeuvre functions. The manoeuvre levers are fully proportional and have spring return to the zero position, i.e. a «dead-man’s-handle». The control unit has an emergency stop function which will immediately stop all movement .
All manoeuvre levers are protected with a protective frame against unintentional activation and against mechanical damage. The control unit has multi-step micro-speed operation as standard enabling instantaneous temporary reduction of speed and it can also be equipped with a large number of switches for ON/OFF functions. A LED and sound signal are used to indicate such things as operating and battery status and for a simple and diagnostic fault finding. ( See picture of control unit ).
Doc.nr : Rc400-Manuale_v20_e.doc
General system description 2 — 4
Portable control unit with battery operation ( radio control or opto fibre cable ).
A battery is located in the control unit for radio control and is very simple to change.
·
The battery’s effective operation time is about 8 hours on one charge.
· When the battery is approaching time for charging, the control unit beeps three ( 3 ) times as a warning and at the same time the LED starts to blink on the control unit.
·
The battery must be used until the LED goes out, after which it can be changed.
If the battery capacity is too LOW the control unit cannot be activated.
· The battery capacity and operational performance is reduced in extremely cold conditions.
( The battery is automatically charged during operation by cable control ).
·
In order to reduce battery loading and for safety reasons, the control unit is turned off automatically, after the unit has been idle for more than approximately five ( 5 ) minutes.
Doc.nr : Rc400-Manuale_v20_e.doc
General system description 2 — 5
A brief description is given now of the component parts of the control unit.
The control unit is comprised of manouevre levers for proportional control, switches for
ON/OFF and function changing, micro-operation and emergency stop.
( See separate headings below ).
Manoeuvre levers.
The manoeuvre levers give fully variable proportional operation and are sprung loaded to return to zero position, i.e. «dead-man’s-handle». When the manoeuvre levers are moved from zero position the respective hydraulic function starts to operate slowly and increases in speed as the lever is moved further from zero position and vice versa as the lever is moved back towards zero position. If any levers are not included for a particular installation, a cover plate can be mounted for the unused lever locations.
( See also title » Micro-speed control » ).
For safety reasons all manoeuvre levers must be in their zero/neutral positions for a start-up to be made. If any lever is not in its zero / neutral position during start-up, the control unit will blink and beep the same number of times as the number of the lever to indicate which manoeuvre lever is faulty. The control unit can be used but the faulty lever will be locked and disengaged. ( For example if it beeps and blinks five (5) times, it is the 5th lever from the LEFT which is faulty or giving the problem signal ).
Doc.nr : Rc400-Manuale_v20_e.doc
General system description 2 — 6
Emergencystop panel.
There is a red emergency stop switch (
STOP
) with a manual twist reset, a push button
(
ON/SIGNAL/FREQ. SHIFT
) and a red LED on the control unit’s emergency stop panel.
·
The control unit is started with the sprung reset push button (
ON/SIGNAL/FREQ. SHIFT
)
·
·
A warning signal is produced on the crane (
SIGNAL
) by holding the push button down.
All movement of the crane is stopped if the emergency stop is activated on the control unit. The red LED indicates operating and battery status.
Micro — Speed control ( reduction of speed ).
This return sprung switch can be used to reduce the operating speed in five ( 5 ) steps from
100% to 60%, 50%, 40%, 30% and 20% speed by limiting the hydraulic steering. The regulation of the function’s speed is still made over the entire lever stroke and with retained resolution.
·
With impulses from the sprung loaded toggle switch to the left,
towards ON
, speed reduction can be produced from 100% to 60%, 50%, 40%, 30% and 20% steering.
·
Movement of the switch to the right,
towards OFF
, will produce 100% steering once again ( See also next item ).
·
For safety reasons, a return to 100% steering can only be made if all manoeuvre levers are in their zero positions.
·
When the green LED is blinking, the Micro-speed function is activated. The number of blinks indicate the operating speed as defined below. If the emergency stop is pressed on the controller unit, the controller unit will start from the last chosen speed.
Green LED :
Green LED not lit
1 blink every third second =
2 blink every third second =
3 blink every third second =
4 blink every third second =
5 blink every third second =
Indication :
0 to 100 % speed ( normal speed ).
0 to 60 % speed
0 to 50 % speed
0 to 40 % speed
0 to 30 % speed
0 to 20 % speed

General system description 2 — 7
ON/OFF and function changing functions.
ON/OFF switches can be used to manoeuvre electrical, hydraulic or pneumatic ON/OFF functions. Examples of functions :
·
·
·
Stopping and starting of the vehicle’s motor, throttle lever, beep / signal, change-over valves, function changing for ex. 9th and 10th function.
Enable parallel running of two or more valves at the same time from one manoeuvre lever.
Connection of so called hold function, i.e. «lock» a function at a specific speed, after which the speed is kept constant without the lever having to be held ( for example hydraulically driven drills ) etc. This can be compared to the speed control in a private car.
Make sure that you always know which functions are connected for ON/OFF manoeuvring.
Alternative: One switch can be used to designate that levers will give either proportional or ON/OFF functions
( function changing ).
3. CABLE FOR CABLE CONTROL ( electrical 3-core ).
The control unit is connected to the electronicbox via a thin and flexible 3-core cable. The cable has round contacts (Amphenol / Hirchmann) at each end.
The cable feeds the digital coded control information from the control unit to the electronic box. The cable is available in standard lengths of 10 , 15 , 25 , 50 and 100 metres.
With cable control, the standard cable length supplied is 15 metres .
A 10 metre control cable is supplied with opto or radio control, for emergency operation.
( 1 = Supply , 2 = Data , Ground = Ground/Minus , 3 = No connection ).
Doc.nr : Rc400-Manuale_v20_e.doc
General system description 2 — 8
4. CABLE FOR OPTO FIBRE OPERATION ( NOTE ! OPTION ).
For opto fibre control the remote control system is complemented with an opto fibre cable, battery pack and battery charger. This means that light is used to send the control information
( not electrical impulses ).
The control unit is connected to the electronicbox via a thin opto fibre cable. The cable has circular type contacts (Ampehenol / Hirchmann) at each end and the opto fibre electronics is built in and integrated into the contacts.
Opto fibre cable is used in those cases where the use of traditional control cable is not allowed. This can be during work under or near to electrical power lines or ground cables where contact or flash-over between control unit and crane could be fatal.
With opto fibre cable the control unit and electronicbox ( crane / vehicle ) are not electrically connected, i.e. are totally isolated and galvanically separated.
( Radio control gives the same personnel protection ).

General system description 2 — 9
5. ELECTRONICBOX.
The electronicbox is manufactured in aluminium and is provided with attachments and contacts for connection to the portable control unit, radio receiver box and ON/OFF functions. There are also connections and contacts for supply voltage, electro-hydraulic converter valves, slide controls and dump valve. Since the electronicbox can be exposed to very tough environments, the box is encapsulated to give protection from damp, heat, cold, dust, vibration and corrosive environments.
The electronicbox has short circuit proof inputs and outputs and has protection against polarity reversal, over-voltage and large incoming voltage transients and EMC / RF. Connection of the electronicbox can therefore be made without risk of damage. The electronicbox is delivered for supply voltages of +12 / +24 VDC ( +/- 20 % ) with negative ground. There are two standard car type fuses located inside the electronicbox.
Plus fuse: + 10 Amp. and minus fuse: — 30 Amp.
A transformer for standard mains voltages can also be used to provide the electronicbox with supply voltage.
Primary voltage: 110, 115, 220-240, 380, 440 VAC and secondary voltage + 12 / +24 VDC ( +/- 10%).
There are LEDs on the electronicbox to indicate operating status e.t.c : See also page : 5-2 !!!

Installation instructions for Scanreco RC 400 remote control system .
When the Scanreco RC 400 is installed an electrically controlled dump valve must, for reasons of safety, always be connected between the manoeuvre valve and the tank . This means that during an emergency stop manoeuvre the dump valve will be without power and will transfer the pump flow directly to the tank thus making the crane entirely without hydraulic pressure.
Welding.
It is sometimes necessary to weld a truck/machine. During welding the system’s electrical connections must always be disconnected from other equipment, i.e. power supply cables ( + and — ), all valve contacts, the EX cable and radio receiver box contact must be disconnected.
1.
Before installation is started, it is recommended that a test run is made of the existing crane
system (movement and functions) in order to discover existing faults or operational
disturbances in the crane, hydraulic valves or other functions. Note these and notify
the customer if any faults are found.

Installation and mounting instructions.
Electronicbox :
Important:
The electronicbox must be mounted in accordance with the recommendations given below! To ensure the longest possible life for the electronicbox and its cables, the electronicbox must always be mounted so that the valve contacts are located facing downwards. The electronicbox must not be mounted so that the cables face upwards. The reason for this is to hinder water from running via the cables, towards the electronicbox.
( The cables on the electronicbox are thus not subjected to long periods of accumulated water, damp, salt etc. ).
The electronicbox should be mounted in a vibration free location and not close to strong heat sources ( for example exhaust pipes etc. ).

Mounting of the radio receiver box.
·
The connection cable (
marked
RA
) for the radio receiver box is approximately 2 metres long which is the maximum mounting distance from the electronicbox.
·
For optimum radio communications the radio receiver box should be located as high and free as possible. An antenna screened and surrounded by fixed objects will considerably impair radio reception.
·
The antenna pin must not touch any metal object. The radio receiver box should be mounted horizontally with the antenna pin sticking vertically up. (
See instructions ! ).
·
The radio receiver box should be mounted in a vibration free location and not be
subjected to strong sources of heat ( for example exhaust pipes etc. ).
Control units and electronicboxes with the same serial number have been programmed with a unique «identity code» when delivered, i.e. they do not need to have their identity codes programmed. See section «Identity code programming» if this is not the case.
NOTE! Marine cranes :
The casing of the radio receiver box is grounded and connected to supply voltage earth. In those special cases where a galvanically isolated earth is required ( for ex. marine use ), the radio receiver’s box must be mounted on rubber stand-offs/bushes to obtain a galvanically isolated earth.
Doc.nr : Rc400-Manuale_v20_e.doc

2.
Select a suitable location for the electronicbox on the vehicle / crane.
·
The contact for the cable control cable, switches for
MANUAL/ 0 / REMOTE
and LEDs for operational status must be located where they are easy to see and reach. Check that the electronicbox cable contacts (
cable control,
ON/OFF
, and radio receiver box connection contacts
) are located so as to be protected from external damage.
·
If the electronicbox is to be mounted in any other manner, the connections and contacts must not face upwards ! This is to hinder long-term accumulations of water, damp and corrosive salt in the cables, connections and contacts.
NOTE! Marine cranes :
The casing of the electronicbox is grounded and connected to supply voltage earth. In those special cases where a galvanically isolated earth is required ( for ex. marine use ), the radio receiver’s box must be mounted on rubber stand-offs/bushes to obtain a galvanically isolated earth.
3.
Connect the electronicbox valve contacts, as per the schematic in which each valve group and function can be seen. A valve gasket is mounted under each valve contact and to prevent future operational disturbances, a weatherproof grease / silicon should be applied between the valve contact and the manoeuvre valve.
·
The valve contacts for the electro-hydraulic slide controller are marked and numbered
1
,
2
,
3
up to

Connection of motor start / start lock :
·
To protect the starter motor against unintentional re-start attempts after the vehicle motor has already started, it is recommended that an electric «start lock» is connected in after the motor start signal from the electronicbox, EX cable pin
2
( See connection example
below ).
·
To be able to find out if the vehicle motor is already started, a signal can be taken, for example, from the generator. In this way the crane driver cannot activate the starter motor by mistake.
·
Before connection, consult the truck manufacturer, customer and inspector !
Start lock / Protection relay. Help relay.
Description of start lock: ( Example : Standard car relay, type Bosch ).
·
When an impulse is received from the portable control unit, +24 VDC is generated (EX no. 2) via the start lock relay, to the starter motor. When the motor has started, the start lock relay receives a voltage on pin 86 from the generator and the relay is pulled.
·
If a new activation is made and an impulse is generated from the portable control unit the voltage will not reach the starter motor, since the start lock relay is activated, i.e. a start non-repeat lock.
·
Generator connection : D+. This is only an example. Before connecting, contact the truck manufacturer !
Flying Jib / Extending jib :
During the manoeuvring of for example a jib / tool or reversing valve from the control unit the manual switch / breaker must always be activated. This is so that manual manoeuvring can be made if any fault should occur in the remote control system.

6. Now you can operate the crane. Move the 3rd manoeuvre lever ( which is operating in the
opposite direction to that desired ) away from zero position until the crane just starts to
move and hold it there then give switch MICRO an impulse to the LEFT
in the ON
direction.
The crane will now change direction and continue with the same selected speed,
in the opposite direction. Do the same with the 5th manoeuvre lever.
Move the 5th manoeuvre lever (which is operating in the opposite direction to that which is desired) away from zero position until the crane just starts to move and hold it there and give toggle switch MICRO an impulse to the LEFT
in the ON direction.
The crane will now immediately change direction and continue with the same selected speed in the opposite direction.

PORTABLE CONTROL UNIT TEST-MODE .
Functional description.
To simplify service and faultfinding, the portable control unit can be put into internal
TEST-
MODE.
This means that the service man can easily control the control unit’s switches and manoeuvre levers, without the need to open the control unit.
When each switch or manoeuvre lever is activated / manoeuvred the control unit gives a
«beep — signal» to confirm that the function is working.
When
«TEST — MODE»
is selected no transfer of proportional, ON/OFF, or dump valve functions is made to the electronicbox.
Do as follows :
1.
Press emergency stop on the control unit.
2.
Twist up the emergency stop on the control unit and press
ON / SIGNAL / FREQ.-SHIFT.
3.
Then press
ON / SIGNAL / FREQ.-SHIFT
ten ( 10 ) times is quick succession.
( This can be done either by cable or radio control).
4.
The control unit’s red LED should blink quickly.
( If the LED is lit continuously, restart from item 1 ).
5.
The control unit
TEST- MODE
is now selected — see item 6.
6.
Each time a switch is activated / manoeuvred the control unit should beep.
( If a particular switch does not beep, there must be a fault in the switch or in the control
unit’s electronic card ).
7.
Each time a manoeuvre lever is activated / manoeuvred a beep signal should be heard from
the control unit which increases in «sound intensity» with lever displacement. The control
unit beeps with a continuous tone when the manoeuvre lever is manoeuvred to maximum.
This gives a confirmation that the control unit’s levers have been manoeuvred fully / max.
( If a certain manoeuvre lever does not beep there is a fault in the manoeuvre lever, pin /
socket contact or in the control unit’s electronic card ).
8.
When testing of the control unit is completed, press down the emergency stop on the
control unit. The control unit will now function normally.

E.
Screw back the contact from the «old» radio receiver box.
F.
The radio receiver box works but the radio transmitter is probably defective, see item 2 !
Note.
If the
GREEN
LED does not light on both radio receiver boxes, there is probably a fault
in the electronicbox radio contact or inside the electronicbox. Contact Scanreco,
Sweden in this case.
2. Changing the radio transmitter ( i.e. inside the portable control unit ).
A.
Unscrew the 2 (two) screws on each short side on the under-side, i.e. a total of 4 ( four )
screws.
Pull the over and under sections carefully apart.
B.
Unscrew the radio transmitter ( total of 4 screws ) and replace it with an exchange unit.
To avoid intermittent contact/functional disturbances from the radio transmitter, the
mounting screws for the «new» radio transmitter must be well tightened !!
C.
Replace the upper and lower halves, replace the screws and then test run.
If the radio units still does not work contact Scanreco AB, Sweden.

8. PROGRAMMING PARAMETERS AND
SETTINGS.
General description.
The Scanreco RC 400 offers considerable possibilities for system constructors of hydraulically driven mobile cranes and machines. The program in the control system is very comprehensive, flexible and has many adaptation possibilities for specific applications. The control system offers simple programming of a number of functions which can easily be turned on or off or altered during operation.
To obtain the best manoeuvre characteristics in the simplest way, all programming / calibration of manoeuvre characteristics is made during operation ( so called on-line ). All programming / calibration is made from the portable control unit. Programming is simple and does not require tools / instruments or any special knowledge.
( Programming can of course be also made from a PC / terminal ).
The control system is furnished with and prepared for 2-way (duplex) communications and for signal handling of functions such as ramp, parallel, lock, «dead-man’s», hold, double and overload / lift reduction etc.
THE SYSTEM HAS 4 LEVELS OF AUTHORISATION:
·
Authorisation level 1. ( Installer ).
·
·
Authorisation level 2. ( Well trained installer, well trained service personnel ).
Authorisation level 3. ( Well trained crane and valve manufacturer, well trained system
· constructor ).
Authorisation level 4. ( Scanreco AB, Sweden ).
·
Authorisation level 1: ( Installer ).
— 1.A To change the direction of the crane.
If the crane moves in the opposite direction to that which is desired.
·
Authorisation level 2: ( Well trained installer, well trained service personnel ).
— 2.A Individual changes to the manoeuvre valve start speed for A or B ports.
If the manoeuvre valve’s starting value ” dead-band ” is to be increased or decreased for A or B port.
— 2.B Individual speed reduction for A or B ports.
Individual maximum manoeuvre speed reduction for a particular critical function ( e.g.
swing function ). Fully variable speed reduction can be made for manoeuvre valves on the A
or B ports. This enables the crane driver to pre-set the maximum oil flow for each individual
function ( A or B port ) as required.
— 2.C Individual changes to micro — speed control for A or B ports.
Due to non-symmetry in certain valves hydraulic system or in the crane / machine the micro
speed can be less well defined. If this is the case the micro-speed final speed can be changed
and adjusted (i.e. for max. lever position) for A or B port for all movements.
Note.:
After the completed adjustment of the micro-speed :
The remaining micro-speed’s «reduction steps» will be proportional to the setting.
Programming parameters and settings 8 —
2
— 2.D Individual delayed start and stop movements ( ramp functions acceleration and
retardation ).
Ramp functions give soft start and stop movements which protects the crane / machine against overloading during careless manoeuvring.
Start delay, i.e. this is the time required for the manoeuvre valve slide to reach its final position from the time the manoeuvre lever has left its neutral position. The time can be set individually to between 0 and 5 seconds for A and B ports. ( See tables below ! )
Stop delay, i.e. this is the time required for the manoeuvre valve slide to come to its neutral position after the manoeuvre lever has been placed in the neutral position. The time can be set individually to between 0 and 5 seconds for A and B ports. ( See tables below ! )
·
Authorisation level 3.
( Only a few of the functions are described here ) :
·
Individually programmable manoeuvre curves.
The basic characteristics of the manoeuvre curves can be varied extensively. The manoeuvre curve in relation to the manoeuvre lever can be linear, linear with different curve slopes or with a break point in the manoeuvre curve. The appearance and characteristic of the manoeuvre curve can be individually installed for each valve section ( A or B port ) for example for a particular critical function.
·
Programming for the 9th and 10th valve movements or for serial tandem operation.
·
Double function
( different control characteristics depending upon speed, ramps etc. ).
·
Hold function:
( i.e. «lock» a function at a particular speed, after which the speed will be
kept constant without the lever needing to be held ).
·
Dead-man’s function
( can be designed to cater for different safety requirements ).
·
Individual or common reduction functions.
A reduction or stop can be ordered by external
input signals in critical situations if the crane / machine becomes overloaded or / and
overturns. External input signals can also cause reduction of speed of all functions to be
made in the case of insufficient pump capacity. With external input signals, when the crane
driver is working from a sky lift, an automatic reduction/decrease of speed can be made.
With external input signals the control system can always drive the support legs down but
upwards only if the pressure in cylinder is so low that the vehicle is standing firmly. etc.
·
Automatic dumping:
( an optional time can be set for automatic dumping/unloading, which
means unnecessary heat generation is avoided and a further increase in safety ).
E.t.c.
The Installer/system designer is responsible for seeing that the RC 400 is used correctly for all applications and is responsible for any re-programming of the system functions and the characteristics changes caused by this.
See section 2.D. Ramp times for various classes are given in the tables below ( Classes 0 to 15 ) :

( The beeper in the control unit will give one long and one short beep once every 5 seconds to confirm that the items above have been done correctly. Any other beep signals mean you must restart from item 1).
Now you can easily change the start delays for A and B ports, see item 6.
6.
Now operate the crane. Move the 3rd manoeuvre lever just enough to start the crane moving in for example the A direction. Give switch MICRO five (5) impulses to the LEFT
in the ON direction. (a start delay of 0.5 secs will now be programmed, No. 5 = 0.5 secs)
.
Move the 5th manoeuvre lever to just enough to start the crane moving for example in the
B direction. Give switch MICRO two (2) impulses to the LEFT
in the ON direction.
(a start delay of 0.2 secs will now be programmed, No. 2 = 0.2 secs)
.
When you run the crane you may find that you still want to change/adjust a time (see table).
Do as follows:
Give the MICRO switch impulses to the RIGHT, towards ON, to decrease times or to the
LEFT, towards ON, to increase times for the levers. ( One impulse equals one step in the table ).
Run the crane and check that the start delays are as desired.

See table:
( 0 = no stop delay i.e.
normal delivery state, 15 = maximum stop delay ).
Example:
After installation and test running it is found that the 3rd and 5th lever/movement stop speeds need to be delayed for A or B ports. Below is shown how a stop delay is programmed for the 3rd lever manoeuvres of 0.3 secs for the A port and 0.6 secs for the B port. See table: No. 3 = 0.3 secs (A port) and No. 6 = 0.6 secs (B port).

( The control unit’s built-in beeper will give one long and two short beeps once every 5 seconds to confirm that the items above have been done correctly. If any other beep signals are heard you must restart from item
1 again ).
Now you can easily change the stop delays for A and B ports, see item 6.
6.
Now operate the crane. Move the 3rd manoeuvre lever just enough to start the crane moving in for example the A direction. Give switch MICRO three (3) impulses to the
LEFT
in the ON direction.
(a start delay of 0.3 secs will now be programmed, No. 3 = 0.3 secs)
.
Move the 5th manoeuvre lever to just enough to start the crane moving for example in the
B direction. Give switch MICRO six (6) impulses to the LEFT
in the ON direction.
(a start delay of 0.6 secs will now be programmed, No.62 = 0.6 secs)
.
When you run the crane you may find that you still want to change/adjust a time (see table).
Do as follows:

SCANRECO RC 400
is a complete remote control system for the proportional control of truck/ loader cranes. Thousands of loader cranes with Scanreco’s remote control system are in use each day almost all over the world. They have many uses among which are to help bury heating pipes in Sweden to lifting oil pipelines in Russia and concrete elements in Saudi Arabia. Customers are some of the leading crane and machine manufacturers. Most of the products are exported.
The Scanreco RC 400 offers the driver a remote control system which is extremely easy to use with speed, precision and control under maximum safety. The remote control can be operated with a thin and flexible 3-core cable, an opto fibre cable or via radio control.
SCANRECO’s
RC 400 remote control system is based on extremely advanced micro-processor technology and has a radio which enables a channel changing during operation. Years of hard and exacting tests have shown that the RC 400 remote control system can cope with the most demanding and roughest environments. The remote control system is tested so that it can be used with workmans basket for lifting personnel, in power stations, mines, on oil platforms e.t.c. The remote control system is protected against electro-magnetic and radio frequency radiation ( this applies both to cable and radio operation ).
Approvals.
Scanreco’s remote control system fulfils EC ´ s Machine and EMC directive, is fully approved and complies with the European special demands and standards for «Remote controlled lifting devices» and for Occupational Safety and Health direction in accordance with : EN954, prEN280, 89/392/EEC, 89/336/EEC, EN50081-2, EN50082-2, I- ETS 300 683 and
I-ETS 300 220.
Safety.
Each radio system operates under all operations with its own unique identity code ( ID-code ).
This means that only the correct portable control unit can activate and control its matching receiver
( crane ). For maximum safety the receiver has double processors to enable comparison and checking of the data signals from the control unit. The receiver on the crane operates with a so called automatic emergency stop, which means that the dump valve and all crane movements are only activated as long as verified data signals are received from the control unit. The receiver also operates with so called automatic dumping of the oil flow, i.e. the oil is dumped directly to the tank and makes the whole crane without hydraulic pressure if no lever activations have been made. The pump flow is returned as soon as a lever is activated.
Radio channel changing.
Concurrently with the increased number of radio control systems it has become more common that frequency collisions occur or radio interference ( interuptions in crane operation ). In order the minimise these frequency collisions the control unit has, as standard, a button, with which the driver can directly change the radio channel. Radio communications take place within the 405 — 490 Mhz band which enables a problem free and interference free operation .
Radio channel change can be made at any time during operation.

Control unit.
The portable control unit, which is design registered, can be provided with up to eight ( 8 ) manoeuvre levers and is impact resistant and weather resistant with low weight and ergonomic design. The manoeuvre levers can give fully variable operation and are sprung loaded to return to the neutral position, i.e. «dead-man’s-handle». The speed of the crane is directly in proportion to the manoeuvre lever displacement. For maximum safety there is a neutral position control on the manoeuvre levers, and they have also been given a separate neutral position circuit which disconnects the manoeuvre lever within an area of approx.
±
3
°
from the manoeuvre lever’s neutral position. All manoeuvre levers are protected by a protective frame against unintentional manoeuvring and against mechanical damage. The control unit has an emergency stop which immediately stops all crane movement. The control unit has micro operation as standard, i.e. the speed can be reduced temporarily in five steps to 60%,
50%, 40%, 30% and 20% of normal crane speed. Full movement of the levers is still used for the reduced speed control. The battery is located in the control unit and can be very easily changed. The radio transmitter and its antenna are built in. A LED and sound signal indicate operational and battery status and are used for easy diagnostic fault finding. The control unit can be equipped with a large number of toggle switches for ON/OFF functions such as : starting and stopping of the vehicle motor, throttle control ( RPM+/-, fast, automatic* )
*
automatic throttle control, i.e. throttle opening takes place at the same time that a manoeuvre is started with
any of the levers. Closing of the throttle is delayed, i.e. it remains open for approx. 6 seconds after the last
lever movement
),
a switch which enables the number of functions in the control unit to be doubled etc. The control unit is supplied with a strap to enable it to be hung around the neck
( a waist belt is available as an option ).
Option : Indication on the portable control unit.
The control unit can easily be provided with a display and LEDs for indication and reading of values from the crane : the actual weight being lifted, indications of 60% to 90% loading
( warns the driver in good time when the limit for the crane’s lift limit is close
), 100% loading
( indicates that the limit for the crane has been exceeded
), indication of instability in the vehicle (
warns the driver when the crane is getting close to the drivers cab where stability often is not sufficient
), indication of so called increased lifting power.
( e.g. Palfinger ´ s HPLS / Fassi ´ s XP / HMF ´ s HDL etc. ).
Electronicbox and control system.
The remote control system can be mounted onto all hydraulic valve types available on the market. Remote control makes it possible to pre-set speeds individually for each function. All desired programming-/ calibration of the manoeuvre characteristics can be made during operation ( on-line ). Programming is easy and requires neither tools/instruments nor any special knowledge. The powerful PLC in the control system is supplied with and prepared for
2-way direction communications, signal handling of for example ramp, blocking, hold, overload functions and the field bus CAN-BUS e.t.c.
The system is developed and manufactured entirely by us.

Описание
Пульт радиоуправления SCANRECO RC400 G2B PR6MUD34SHF1 — это разновидность дистанционного управления, при котором пульт управления и приемник соединены с помощью радиоканала. Данные пульты, в зависимости от назначения системы, могут быть оборудованы кнопками, линейными рукоятками или джойстиками, а также дополнительными тумблерами и переключателями.
Пульт дистанционного управления оснащен 4 рукоятками управления (может быть до 6) для управления определенными операциями. В середине находится красная кнопка остановки со съемным ключом. Кнопка остановки используется, когда операция должна быть прервана, а также в случае аварийной остановки.
Слева и справа от кнопки остановки возможна установка до 10 диодов или переключателей тумблеров, которые используются для расширения функций джойстиков управления.
Кнопка «ON» используется для запуска системы.
Блок дистанционного управления питается от батареи, расположенной в нижней части коробки. В настоящее время диоды, а также встроенный зуммер, информируют оператора о функциональном состоянии системы. Также возможны дополнительные функции, связанные с управлением двигателем транспортного средства
Применение системы радиоуправления SCANRECO RC400 G2B PR6MUD34SHF1 позволяет не только обезопасить оператора, избавив его от необходимости находится в опасной близости от управляемого механизма, но, и в некоторых случаях, создать более комфортные условия работы.
