5.6 Stopping the Radio Remote Control
In order to completely stop the transmission of data manually, the user must press the STOP button (#6).
Then the text STOP appears on the display (if present), the RED status LED blinks at a fast rate and the transmitter sends a
Stop telegram to the receiver. Upon receiving the Stop telegram, the receiver goes into Safe Mode and turns OFF all receiver
outputs.
If the user wishes to resume operation, this is possible by deactivating the STOP switch and pressing the Start switch
(#7) again.
Note: For the stopping procedure for the standard Nova-S transmitter refer to the respective section in the Nova S appendix.
WARNING: Holding the transmitter improperly while operating your machine could result in unexpected machine
response.
WARNING: Test the stop function as described in the machine manufacturer’s operator manual before beginning any
operation.
WARNING: To avoid accidental start-up, always press STOP when not in use.
Turn OFF your machine if there is a fault or problem with the safety check.
NEVER operate the machine if the STOP function does not work properly.
WARNING: Improper operation, maintenance or adjustment may cause serious injury or damage to equipment and
may void the warranty.
5.7 Battery ‘State of Charge’ Indication
Unless the transmitter is equipped with a TFT screen, in which case the Battery Level is also displayed on the status bar, the
transmitter uses two different warning signs to show the user that the battery needs replacement.
When the Low Battery level warning has been triggered, the RED status LED will blink at a slow rate. The GREEN status LED
will still blink at the same rate as the baud rate. The Low Battery detection threshold can be configured through the ‘Low Batt
Warning’ field in the ‘RF’ tab on Hetronic PC-Link (refer to Service and Programming Manual for instructions).
In addition to low battery warning, a fixed critical battery level is also monitored. When critical battery level is reached, the RED
Status LED will blink faster. The coder will automatically trigger the Stop telegram for about 5 seconds until it shuts off.
5.8 LED Behaviour and Meanings
All transmitting units are equipped with LED lights that signal operating status, battery level and fault messages.
