USER MANUAL | NOVA OCUs
5
NEVER remove or alter any of the safety features on the OCU.
ALWAYS confirm that the machine and radio remote control Emergency and General Safe Stop functions work as
intended BEFORE controlling the machinery or equipment remotely.
1.6 Security Features
The OCU is equipped with electro-mechanical safety features. Control signals from other OCUs cannot be processed, as
transmission coding is unique to each OCU.
1.7 STOP in case of EMERGENCY
Push the Emergency Stop button installed on the controlled machinery or the General Safe Stop button installed on the OCU.
1.8 Caring for your NOVA Product
The enclosure materials used in the NOVA product have been carefully selected to minimize maintenance requirements.
Always use genuine Hetronic chargers and accessories. Cheaper alternatives that are not compatible or
specifically designed for use with your NOVA can potentially damage the unit or shorten its lifespan.
Do not store your NOVA OCU in a closed container for extended periods unless it is powered off and the
battery is removed. Charging the battery in a closed container poses a potential fire hazard and may shorten
its lifespan. Batteries generate heat when charging and discharging. Aim to maintain your battery state of
charge between 30-80% for longer battery life depending on the battery chemistry. Refer to the respective
sections of this manual covering battery care and maintenance for further details.
Clean your OCU regularly. Use damp cloth or alcohol wipes to clean the unit’s exterior surfaces. Do not use
aggressive cleaning agents that may inadvertently damage it.
