8.16 Cable control
The cable control is used:
- in particular working conditions, eablished by the Machine Manufacturer
- when it is not possible to eablish a radio link between the Radio Remote Control Units,
- when working in environments where using radio frequencies is not allowed or is dangerous,
- when a fully charged battery is not available.
ATTENTION: The use of the cable control entails risk of electric shock when
working near overhead or underground power line's cables.
8.16.1 Description
The cable control connects the Transmitting Unit to the Receiving Unit through a cable that
replaces the radio link. The cable shall be plugged in the suitable connectors, one on the
Transmitting Unit and the other on the Receiving Unit (or placed where eablished by the
Machine Manufacturer).
When you use the cable control, the working features (i.e. the meaning of actuators, the Data
Feedback function) of the Radio Remote Control or of the Take & Release Radio Remote Control
do not change.
8.16.2 Operation
Before arting to work, make sure that the cable and the corresponding
connectors are intact.
Work organisation, Machines' position, passages, etc. shall be planned so
as to avoid that the cable control 's cable may be damaged by moving trolleys
or by the ongoing operations.
Do not use the cable control's cable to lift the Transmitting Unit.
Lay the cable control's cable in such a way as to avoid that it is squashed or
rained by People or objects. Avoid contact with sharp or cutting objects
that can cut the cable's protective sheath.
The cable control cannot be used if the Radio Remote Control is inalled on
a Machine that controls loads that are not isolated from an AC power supply
or from a DC power supply higher than 30V
.
Using the cable control at the same time as the wai belt or the shoulder
harness means that there is a physical connection between the User and the
Machine: therefore, the User mu conantly check that the Machine's
movements, especially in case of loss of control (by way of example: risk of
overturning, of cable dragging by other Machinery), do not cause hazards. In
such situations, the User mu pull out the belt or open it by unfaening its
buckle(s).
