QUICK-SET SYSTEM
The Quick-Set System provides easier installation,
adjustment and service of the radio remote control
system. Quick-Set allows adjustment of all proportional
function speeds (valve travel) from the transmitter. A
red Program Key is provided to control the
programming mode. When adjustments are complete,
remove the Program Key and store it in a secure
location. Function speeds can be readjusted at any
time.
The system includes a base board, or mother board,
which includes all of the common function circuitry
found in most Hetronic receivers. These functions
include power regulation, decoding the received signal,
12 digital output functions, and the Quick-Set function.
The base board also contains diagnostic LEDs that are
visible on the outside of the transmitter housing to help
quickly diagnose problems.
FUNCTION SPEED ADJUSTMENT
This procedure requires that the receiver is connected
to the machine, all necessary wiring is complete and a
fully charged battery is in the transmitter.
IMPORTANT: The crane must be located in an open
area so that sudden or unexpected crane movements
will not damage buildings or property. All power lines
must be out of reach of the boom. Set the outriggers in
the "out and down" position as recommended by the
crane manufacturer and be sure the crane is stable.
For specific instructions, refer to the crane
manufacturer’s operator manual. Allow the truck
engine to run at "Idle".
1. Use the crane’s manual controls to raise the
boom from its rest. Extend the boom to a safe
starting point.
2. The transmitter must be attached to the operator
with the belt adjusted to a firm fit.
3. Turn the receiver power "ON".
4. Remove the black key from the transmitter
keyswitch.
5. Insert the red programming key into the
keyswitch.
6. Turn the transmitter "ON".
7. Wait approximately 3 seconds until the second
buzzing sound has finished.
8. Twist the key one quarter turn further to the
program position. (This is only possible with the
red programming key.) Press the "Start/horn"
button for at least one second.
9. To set minimum speed - Deflect the requested
joystick slowly until you hear the vehicle’s horn. If
the horn is connected to the receiver, it will sound
for a brief moment when the joystick reaches the
minimum movement position. Keep the joystick in
this position.
10. Adjust the speed of this function by using the
program "T-O-T" toggle switch (momentary - zero
- momentary). Push the toggle switch toward "+"
to increase speed, toward "-" to decrease speed.
Adjust the function speed to move as slowly as
possible. This helps to achieve a smooth start
when this function is activated.
11. To set maximum speed - Deflect the joystick to its
maximum position. Push the program toggle
switch toward "+" to increase speed, toward "-" to
decrease speed.
The receiver can program only one function at a time.
Make sure that only one axis is deflected at a time.
When function adjustment is complete in one direction,
repeat the procedure above for the other directions and
functions. Remember to set values for both high and
low ranges.
After all adjustments are complete, wait at least 10
seconds before turning the transmitter off. The new
values will be automatically stored into the system’s
memory.
If problems occur during the adjustment procedure,
you can revert to the default values of the system.
Remove the receiver lid and press the reset button on
the board. Reinstall the receiver lid.
ADJUSTMENTS
CAUTION: AVOID INJURY AND PROPERTY
DAMAGE - The crane may respond differently
with radio remote controls than with manual
controls. During the adjustment procedure,
use extreme caution with joystick/lever
movements. Avoid sudden movements and
observe crane motions carefully. The operator
must be standing on dry, level, stable ground
that is free of oil and debris.
WARNING: AVOID INJURY - The crane is
moving during the adjustment of the
functions. Be sure the work area is clear of
obstacles and bystanders.
