Radio Remote Control of the Range E1
ELCA
20
The radio link is sensitive to particular conditions in the
environment, like for example the presence of metal obstacles
or electromagnetic interference.
If the connection between the Transmitting Unit and the Receiving Unit
is interrupted or is incorrect, the system provides that the Receiving
Unit commands the Machine to stop.
There are various reasons for an interruption of the connection:
- programmed automatic shut-off;
- Transmitting Unit low battery;
- no power supply to the Transmitting Unit;
- STOP button pressed;
- Automatic connection interruption;
- operating range exceeded;
- presence of metal obstacles.
For the Machine to stop, however, the wiring between the units must
have been made correctly.
When the radio link is interrupted all the outputs of the Receiving
Unit are disabled. To be able to activate/deactivate the controls of the
Machine using the Transmitting Unit the Radio Remote Control must
be switched on again.
8.2.4 Stop
The shut-down is a safety function that puts the Machine in a safe state
each time it is necessary to stop it because of a potentially dangerous
situation.
The stop function can activate:
- by the operator pressing the red STOP button on the Transmitting
Unit (manual mode).
- automatically by the Receiving Unit if the radio link between the
Units is incorrect or interrupted (automatic mode).
THE USER MUST ALWAYS PAY THE UTMOST ATTENTION TO
THE SAFE AND CORRECT WORKING OF THE MACHINE IN
ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS
PROVIDED IN THIS MANUAL, THE INSTRUCTIONS
AND WARNINGS IN THE MANUAL OF THE MACHINE
AND IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS,
REGULATIONS AND STANDARDS, ALSO LOCAL.
THE ACTIVATION OF THE STOP BUTTON OR THE RETURN
OF THE ACTUATORS TO THE REST POSITION MIGHT NOT
CAUSE THE MACHINE TO STOP IMMEDIATELY.
THE STOP BUTTON MIGHT NOT ACTIVATE A BRAKE.
MOREOVER, DIFFERENT MACHINES HAVE DIFFERENT
RESPONSE TIMES AND STOPPING DISTANCES. EVEN
IF THE STOP FUNCTION IS USEFUL, THE USER SHOULD
BE FULLY AWARE OF THE MOVEMENTS AND WORKING
AREAS OF THE MACHINE AND SHOULD PROVIDE FOR
THE SAFE OPERATION OF THE MACHINE, TAKING
INTO CONSIDERATION THESE RESPONSE TIMES AND
STOPPING DISTANCES.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS, EVEN
TEMPORARILY, CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES OR DEATH
OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.
