k. Pitch & Catch Function
This function allows two operators to control one crane from opposite ends of a cross or
long travel (refer to page 23 on how to set to this function). When set to “Pitch & Catch,”
make sure the 2
nd
transmitter is set to the next upper channel (channel X*+1). For
example, if the system is preset at “Ch.01” then the channel of the 2
nd
transmitter should
be set to “Ch.02”. Furthermore, the dip-switch position #7 and #8 on the receiving module
should be set to “01”, as this will allow the receiver to scan only Ch.01 and Ch.02 (please
refer to the illustration below). On the other hand, since there are only 62 available
channels on the Flex system, the system preset at channel 62 is ineffective because the
2
nd
transmitter can not be set to Ch.63. If your system is preset at Ch.62 make sure to
change it to another channel.
3. Receiver Auto-Scanning Settings
Receiver Channel Dip-switch
↓
(1) → Scanning all 62 channels (manufacture preset)
For standard operation
(2) → Single fixed channel (channel X*)
Auto scanning function disabled
(3) → Scanning 2 channels only (channel X*, channel X*+1)
For Pitch & Catch, Tandem, and Random Access operation
with 2 receivers
(4) → Scanning 3 channels only (channel X*, channel X*+1,
channel X*+2)
For Random Access operation with 3 receivers
* Channel X → Channel set on the receiving module
Example: If the first 6 dip-switch positions on the receiving module is set to Ch.01
(“000000” or “000001”), when set to 2-channel scanning (type-3 above),
then the receiver will only scan Ch.01 and Ch.02.
