ADDRESS SETTINGS
The address settings are pre-set at the factory in the
ADMO module. However, if the transmitter coder
board, the BMS-1 Base Board, or if the entire
transmitter or receiver are replaced, the ADMO
address must match the system.
IMPORTANT: If the ADMO settings of the transmitter
and receiver do not match, the system will not function.
HOLDING THE TRANSMITTER
Hold the transmitter with the control panel facing you.
Be sure that you are able to easily read any text and
understand operation symbols. If your transmitter
contains a Tilt Sensor Switch, be sure it is not activated
or the transmitter will not start.
If a belt or strap is provided with your transmitter, use it
at all times. The belt or strap is designed to reduce
stress and increase safety.
The safety checks described in the following
paragraphs must be completed before the radio remote
control system is activated. These checks must be
performed at least once a day, before the start of any
operation and at all shift changes.
IMPORTANT: A transmitter drawing is included with
each system. Transmitter layout and inscriptions may
vary according to customer requests.
VISUAL CHECK
Always check the transmitter for any physical damage
before any operation.
• Always keep safety features, guards and controls
in good repair, in place and securely fastened.
• Check equipment for wear or damage.
• Check rubber cuffs and pushbutton caps for wear
or damage.
IMPORTANT: Never operate a transmitter with worn or
damaged parts. Replace immediately with only
Hetronic parts. Contact Hetronic or your Dealer.
