b. Set the controller’s Power ON/OFF Switch(es) to the ‘ON’ position. When transmitting with a good
battery, two short ‘beeps’ will be heard immediately after the Power ON/OFF Switch is set to ‘ON’
and a green TRANSMIT LED will ‘flash’ rhythmically. When the battery starts to go low, the green
LED changes to a red or yellow (depending on the type of controller) LOW BATTERY LED which
‘flashes’ continuously. This means you should change or recharge the battery pack as soon as
possible.
c. When installed, depress the ALARM/RESET pushbutton switch located in the center of the
controller’s Push-To-Operate (PTO) Bar (this is normally an optional function that sounds the
equipment alarm or horn and resets the main power contactor).
d. Check each function independently to be sure that equipment is responding correctly.
e. Where a limit switch is provided, you should check the limit switch at the beginning of each shift as
defined by your plant operating procedures.
f. Check Range Limiting if used – refer to Appendix I – R2HN Receiver of this manual.
g. Check STOP operation.
h. Check brake operation.
2. Report all defective or missing safety equipment, mechanical or electrical defects to your supervisor
without delay. Do not continue operation until fully repaired.
3. If anyone is in the path of equipment travel, stop and sound the alarm before proceeding. Do not
proceed until the path is clear.
4. Persons operating this equipment shall not use a limit stop as a utility stopping device.
5 When leaving the equipment area for any reason, set the controller’s Power ON/OFF Switch(es) to the
‘OFF’ position. If a Key Switch is installed, remove the key from the controller and keep it on your person.
6. Do not allow any unauthorized person to operate the controller.
7. Do not operate the controller at a distance where the equipment and all surrounding objects are not
visible.
8. Do not attempt to override any of the safety features built into the remote control system.
9. If, for any reason, you or anyone has to board the remote controlled equipment, set the
controller’s Power ON/OFF Switch(es) to the ‘OFF’ position. If a Key Switch is installed, remove
the key from the controller and keep it on your person.
