1. Introduction
The Flex JX radio remote control systems are designed for control of industrial equipment and
machinery such as overhead traveling cranes, jib cranes, gantry cranes, tower cranes and other
material handling equipment where wireless control is preferred.
Each Flex JX system consists of a transmitter belly box and receiver unit. Other standard-equipped
accessories include one rechargeable battery pack, one charging station, one each transmitter waist
and shoulder belt, one spare transmitter power key and user’s manual.
List of notable features include:
* 62 user-programmable channels – Advanced synthesized RF controls with 62 built-in
