CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ
SECTION 1: SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
The Remtron
Radio Remote Control
Systems are designed for control of industrial rated
machinery. This system complies with requirements for
operation under part 15 of the FCC rules and regulations.
This means neither the operator nor the company need
apply or register for a license to operate this equipment.
The basic system consists of a transmitter and a receiver.
The transmitter sends commands to the receiver by means
of radio waves in the 900 MHz band. Receivers operate
from 115 VAC 50/60 Hz power. Operation from 220
VAC is also available.
1.2 TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION
The
hand held transmitters are housed in
rugged cases molded from a modified polymer plastic
that stands up to extremely rugged use. A key feature of
the hand held transmitters is Remtron's patented switch
assembly for control inputs. This long life elastomeric
keypad is ergonomically designed to provide easy
operation over long periods of time with exceptional
reliability.
The
lever and joystick transmitters provide
rugged yet lightweight housings that allow daylong use
without a strain on the back.
All the transmitter functions are controlled by a
microprocessor with a special memory for configuration
information. This offers a great degree of capability and
versatility while at the same time providing simplicity of
operation and maintenance.
The antenna is internal to most transmitter cases, protecting
it from damage. An indicator LED provides a quick
visual check of the transmitters status.
The transmitter sends data at two rates. When a switch
is pressed or released, three rapid commands are
generated to insure a fast system response. The transmitter
then reverts to a 1/3 rate to conserve battery power.
The crane control transmitters are designed to be very
efficient. Only two AA batteries are needed to provide
power for the 21T10 or 21T14 transmitters for a month's
normal use. Other transmitters contain additional batteries
for even longer operating time between battery changes.
An additional feature automatically shuts the transmitter
off after a preset time interval of inactivity to further
extend the battery life.
Refer to Section 5 for details on the specific transmitter
supplied with your system.
1.3 RECEIVER DESCRIPTION
The
receivers consist of two
subassemblies, an RF/Decoder board and a Relay board,
mounted inside a NEMA 12 cabinet. They are equipped
with two safety relays in addition to the control relays.
RF/Decoder Board
The RF/Decoder Board contains the Radio Receiver
and the Microprocessor based control system. Signals
are received by an advanced synthesized RF module
that operates in conjunction with the microprocessor.
Commands are received on one of 87 possible
frequencies and are checked against a 16 bit address
code for proper identity and further tested against a 16
bit CRC check code. This insures only valid information
meant only for the particular unit is decoded.
The microprocessor contains a nonvolatile memory that
retains the frequency, address and particular operating
parameters for the system. The receiver is programmable
by means of PC compatible computers equipped with
an RS-232 serial port or by an independent programming
unit.
Relay board.
The Relay board contains the output relays and the power
supply. Two (2) relays form part of the safety system.
All outputs include spike snubbers to remove transient
voltages from the control lines.
For convenience, the interface terminal strips are un-
pluggable. The relay board can be easily removed without
the necessity of tracking wire numbers and positions.
The power is from 115 VAC, 50/60 Hertz. Optional
1.1
220 VAC, 50/60 Hertz, 250 VDC and other power
inputs are available. The input is protected by a fuse.
Safety Features
Controlling heavy industrial equipment requires that the
remote control system be reliable with built-in safety
features. Each transmission goes through several checks
to insure that the information being received is error free.
The safety interlocks for the crane's Main Line Contactor
(MLC) consist of the operate (OPR) and operate inhibit
(OPI) relays. These relays are controlled by the
microprocessor and by a hardware circuit. Further, one
relay has normally open contacts while the other has
normally closed contacts. This provides three levels of
safety in controlling the Main Contactor for the crane.
Over 5 million combinations of frequencies and address
codes means that no two systems will ever be produced
with the same frequency and address code, thereby
insuring that no transmitter will ever be able to
unintentionally control another crane.
Diagnostics
Even though the receivers are technically very complex,
it is exceptionally easy to maintain and troubleshoot.
Diagnostic LEDs plus an LED for each output relay are
all that are required to isolate a problem should one
occur. Both the transmitter and receiver assembly monitor
and indicate their status on a continuous basis.
1.4 OPTIONS
The following options are available on all receivers:
First Come-First Serve.
Pitch and Catch.

SECTION 1: SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The following options are only available on the
21R22 receiver:
Stepless (proportional) Outputs:
External Hard Wire Inputs.
Extra Relay Outputs.
Pilot Lights.
Intermediate Relay Panel.
DC Power Supply.
Transfer Switch.
Refer to Section 6 for more information on the options.
SECTION 2: INSTALLATION
2.1 INSTALLATION PLANNING
To ensure reliable and safe operation of the system, the
following points must be considered before installing the
receiver assembly.
If the receiver cabinet is to be installed outdoors,
connections to the cabinet must be water tight.
If the receiver is installed in a corrosive environment,
consult the factory for optional NEMA 4X cabinets, or
house the receiver cabinet in a secondary protective
enclosure.
If the receiver is to be installed in environments where
the ambient temperature drops below -20
O
F (-7
O
C)
or rises above +160
O
F (+70
O
C) measures must be taken
to maintain the interior of the enclosure to within these
temperature limits.
2.2 MOUNTING LOCATION
Refer to section 6, Receiver Description, for the
receiver cabinet dimensions and layout. When planning
the location for mounting the receiver, observe the
following rules:
1. Allow sufficient room to swing the cabinet door
open for ease of wiring and service.
2. If the antenna is mounted directly on the receiver
cabinet, allow a minimum or 8 inches below the
cabinet for clearance. Refer to 2.3 ANTENNA
MOUNTING for more information.
3. If possible, avoid mounting the receiver on a surface
where excessive vibration or shock is present. If
this is not possible, appropriate shock mounts must
be used.
4. Allow for positive earth ground to the receiver
cabinet.
2.1
2.3 ANTENNA MOUNTING
The antenna is one of the most important parts of a radio
receiving system. The receiver is designed with a specially
tuned antenna to provide excellent operating reliability
under most conditions. Care in placing the receiver
antenna will ensure reliable operation under the most
severe conditions.
A direct "line-of-sight" between the transmitter and
receiver antenna will provide the best performance. The
radio signal will often "bounce" off metallic objects and
reach the receiver even when the antenna is directly
shielded from the transmitter.
In most cases the antenna may be mounted directly on
the receiver cabinet. If the receiver cabinet location is
not suitable and the antenna must be mounted at a remote
location, the p/n 600038 antenna kit should be used.
The remote mounting kit includes a right angle bracket
with antenna mount and a coaxial extension cable.
It is recommended that the receiver not be connected to
power lines where large transients are present. These
transients are typically caused by motors, contactors and
other large inductive loads.
2.4 RECEIVER INSTALLATION
Inspect all items to insure they have been received in
good condition. The following items are included unless
otherwise noted on the packing list.
- Transmitter
- Transmitter leather holster
- Transmitter shoulder strap
- Receiver assembly
- Receiver antenna
Mounting
Mount the receiver cabinet securely to a solid surface.
Use appropriate locking type hardware to prevent
loosening. Refer to Figure 6.1.
Mechanical
1. Connect the conduit or raceway to the receiver
cabinet and route the wiring into the cabinet.
2. The receiver cabinet should be properly grounded.
Make sure all paint is removed from the bonding
surfaces.
Electrical Connections.
If you have any questions regarding the installation, call
Remtron applications engineering.
When wiring the receiver, it is recommended the wires
be dressed along the sides of the cabinet. This will allow
easy troubleshooting and maintenance should it be
required. Some receiver cabinets are provided with a
pre-punched hole for ease of conduit installation.
Refer to the diagram in Appendix A for typical wiring
installation of the receiver. The configuration sheet
provided with your equipment will have the specific relay
assignments for your system.
1. Power/Transfer Switch Wiring.
A three pole transfer switch is normally provided with
each receiver. Wiring of this switch will depend on the
electrical configuration of your crane. Appendix A shows
wiring of the switch for a single phase crane with a
common control circuit for all motions. Additional switch
poles can be used for systems with isolated control circuits
for the motions.
The switch should be wired so that the crane's main line
contactor (MLC) is controlled by the radio OPI and
OPR relays when in the radio position, and by the pendant
2.2
WARNING !
Verify that the main input power is off
before attempting to make any
connections.
WARNING !
The safety of this system depends on the
proper wiring of this switch. Call Remtron
Applications Engineers if you have any

controls when the switch is in the pendant position. It
should also be wired to transfer control between the
pendant and the radio circuits.
2. Output Relay Connections.
The relay contacts are rated for 16 Amp, 240 VAC to
provide maximum reliability and life. It is recommended
that the load applied to the output circuits be limited to 5
Amps to acheive best system life. Connection to
equipment or contactors with higher voltage or current
ratings requires an auxiliary relay.
The receiver has been pre-wired for a single phase control
system. If you have multiple phase control lines you must
wire the relay commons accordingly.
Refer to the configuration sheet supplied with your system
for the specific relay assignments.
3. Power Connections.
The receiver is normally provided for 115 VAC, 50/60
Hz power. Make sure the receiver is ordered for the
correct operating voltage of your power system. Connect
line and return connections directly to the terminal strip
X1 and X2. Observing the polarity of the connections as
shown in Appendix A will prevent conflicts with any
other wiring on the crane system.
3. Installation Testing.
Before putting the system into service, the following tests
must be performed.
Apply power to the receiver and verify the power and
OPI indicators light.
Turn on the transmitter and verify the OPI indicator goes
off. Verify the OPR indicator lights and the Signal indicator
flashes.
Verify voltage is present at the receiver output to the
Main Line Contactor. Verify no voltage is present at any
of the relay outputs.
AVERTISSEMENT !
La présence de tension à l’une ou l’autre
des sorties indique un raccordement
inadéquat du récepteur à la masse.
S’assurer que le boîtier est raccordé à la
masse avant de faire fonctionner la grue.
SECTION 3: TROUBLESHOOTING
3.1 GENERAL
The following procedures are for diagnosing problems
within the system and isolating them down to the module
level. No special test equipment is required.
Both the transmitter and receiver have built in test and
diagnostic devices to aid in troubleshooting. In the event
of a system malfunction, the following guide presents a
logical approach to pinpointing the cause and quickly
restoring the equipment to operation.
Due to the rough treatment it may be subjected to, most
problems are likely to occur in the transmitter. The
transmitter should be thoroughly diagnosed before
proceeding to the receiver.
3.2 TRANSMITTER TESTING
WARNING !
When testing the transmitter, the receiver
may become active resulting in system
operation. Always assume the system is
working and will respond when testing a
transmitter.
AVERTISSEMENT !
Lors des essais du transmetteur, le récepteur
peut s’activer et entraîner la mise en marche
du système. Prendre en considération que

If the LED remains on continuously there is either a
switch activated at the time the transmitter is turned on,
or a general failure that requires factory service. If the
LED remains lit continuously on power-up, insure that
no other switches are pressed while attempting to turn
the transmitter on.
If the test LED does not light at all, replace the batteries.
If this does not fix the problem, the transmitter is
inoperable and must be repaired.

Receiver LEDs. Refer to Section 6 for the locations of
the decoder diagnostic LEDs inside the receiver cabinet.
On 21R10 and 21R14 receivers, the Power, Address
and Signal LEDs are on the RF/Processor board which
is mounted below the Relay board.
On 21R22 receivers the Power and Signal LEDs are
on the RF/Processor board which is mounted on top of
the Relay board.

a proper address was received.
K1 through Kxx - indicates the corresponding relays
are energized.
A1 through A4 (R14) or SCAN 1 through SCAN 3
(R22) - These LEDs cycle while the receiver is
scanning. When on steady, it indicates which
frequency the receiver is locked on to.
OPI and OPR - When the receiver is either in standby
or has detected a problem which requires the system
to be shut down, OPR will be off and OPI will be
on. This releases the main contactor on the crane
and prevents any operation of the crane.
During normal operation, with the transmitter turned
on, OPR will be on and OPI will be off. The main
contactor on the crane will be energized and the
decoder will be enabled to control the crane
functions.
Receiver Troubleshooting.
1. Check the POWER on indicator. If it's not lit, make
sure the power switch on the right hand side of the
receiver cabinet is in the on position.
Check the fuse on the relay board next to TB3
(TB4 on the 21R22) and replace if necessary.
Check for A.C. input power between terminals X1
and X2 of the terminal strip. If AC power is present
and the POWER on LED is not on replace the
relay board.
2. Make sure the transmitter is off. Turn the receiver
power switch off then on. Check that the OPI is
on. If no indicators come on after 1 second, the
microprocessor circuits are possibly defective.
Replace the RF/Decoder board.
3. Turn the transmitter on. If the SIGNAL LED remains
off, test the transmitter.
Verify the identity code is the same for the transmitter
and receiver.
Replace the RF/Decoder board.
4. Turn the transmitter on. If the SIGNAL LED lights
but the ADDRESS LED does not, there is a
difference between the transmitter and receiver
address code. Change the identity code on the
transmitter or receiver so that they are the same.
Refer to section 5.2 for setting the identity code.
5. If only some of the functions are operating, check
to see if the relay LED's come on for the inoperative
functions.
Check the output voltage of the respective relays
and the crane circuits.
Check the condition of the transmitter switches.
If the unit is new, check the configuration sheet to
verify the function has been programmed.
6. If you experience intermittent operation, check all
connections and make sure that the terminal strips

are firmly snapped in place and that the RF/Decoder
board is firmly attached to the back of the Relay
board.
Check antenna connections.
7. If Operating Range is short, Check all antenna
connections and the transmitter operation.
On new installations, verify the receiver antenna is
placed properly. If necessary, use an antenna
mounting kit to relocate the antenna to a more
favorable location.
Replace the RF/Decoder board.
8. If any of the Contact Sense (Relay Sense) indicators
are lit (21R22 only), a difference between the
intended output command and the relay (or contactor
state occurred. This is usually caused by a failed
relay contact.
The indicator will remain illuminated even after the
transmitter is turned off. The next time the transmitter
is turned on, or if the receiver power is cycles, the
indicator will turn off unless the problem remains.
If external inputs are used for contact sensing,
examine and repair if appropriate the wiring between
the back conacts of the directional contactor and
the receiver input. Also examine the contactor for a
problem.
SECTION 3: TROUBLESHOOTING

SECTION 4: MAINTENANCE
4.1 PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Once a year inspect the transmitter for damage to the
keypad and case.
Once a month all electrical and antenna connections
should be inspected. Make sure all antenna and electrical
connections are clean and tight and that all terminal strips
are firmly in place.
4.2 TRANSMITTER & RECEIVER REPAIRS
Refer to section 5: TRANSMITTER or Section 6:
RECEIVER for details on transmitter and receiver repairs.
4.3 PROGRAMMING

as well as programming of application information. This
is recommended for larger installations that must maintain
systems with a variety of configurations.
A stand alone programmer, RAC16, is available for most
applications. It provides a convenient method for changing
the identity code and making basic application changes
to the transmitters and receivers.
Programming Levels
Most programming changes involve only the assignment
of the identity code. The identity code in a six digit
alphanumeric number that contains the operating
frequency and address of the unit. This level of
programming is described in this manual.
Higher levels of programming, those that allow changing
of time constants, relay assignments and decoding logic
are covered in a separate manual.
Identity Code
The unit identity code consists of a six digit alphanumeric
number such as 2E005B. The range of numbers is 0
through 9 and A through F.
The first two numbers designate one of the 87 frequencies
that are used for these systems. In a plant with many
units located in a close area, each system can be assigned
a different frequency. For reference, table 4.1 lists the
frequency for each code.
The last four numbers designate one of the 65,536 possible
address codes. Again, the range of numbers is 0 through
9 and A through F.
Each system in a plant must have a separate identity
code. Two systems with the same identity code will be
able to "talk" to each other. All systems are shipped
from the factory with a unique identity code. It is highly
recommended that the receiver identity code not be
changed, rather a transmitter identity code be made to
match that of a receiver.
Programming
The transmitter and receiver are programmed using the
same method.
Transmitters have a four position connector with one pin
removed for keying. Receivers may have a four position
or a six position connector with one pin removed for
keying. The programmer has a six position connector
with one position blanked.
Locate the programming connector on the transmitter
board or the RF/Decoder board in the receiver and
connect the plug from the programmer. Note that the
plug is polarized and must be connected with the plug
aligned with the position of the blank pin.
6 pos connector 4 pos connector
If programming a transmitter, make sure the batteries are
installed. If programming a receiver, make sure power is
applied to the RF/Decoder board (power LED is ON).
