Transmitter System USER’S MANUAL Light Series
Follow the indications and warnings given by the machine producer regarding the machine controlled by the radio remote control. The information contained in this manual considers a representative configuration of the radio remote control: please find radio remote control real configuration in the technical data sheet (attached to the manual). If this manual is lost or damaged, ask for a copy from AUTEC. Please specify the serial number of the relative radio remote control.

LILKNPA0 2 INTRODUCTION TO LIGHT SERIES Industrial radio remote controls of the LIGHT series are used to command machines from a distance. Each industrial radio remote control is made up of a portable transmitting unit, from which the user can remotely control the machine, and a receiving unit installed on board the machine itself. The transmitting unit uses radio frequencies to transmit a coded message which contains a value called address.
LILKNPA0 Alll machines must undergo a risk analysis; therefore it is necessary to evaluate, within the limits of this analysis, if the machine can be radio remote controlled. The machine producer and/or the person who decides upon radio remote control use and installation is responsible for this analysis. Autec cannot be held responsible if the risk analysis is not carried out correctly.
LILKNPA0 INSTRUCTIONS FOR DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT The following minimum documentation is supplied with each radio remote control: - transmitting unit manual - receiving unit manual - battery charger manual - a guarantee certificate - the radio remote control technical data sheet. Make sure that the following documents have been supplied: if they are not, request them from Autec. Please specify the radio remote control serial number.
LILKNPA0 3 LK TRANSMITTING UNIT A LK transmitting unit can be used with one of the following receiving units: - Type R102 - Type R202 - Type R302.
LILKNPA0 The LK transmitter has different configuration according to the number of available pushbutton actuators. The LIGHT series is equipped with a safety function called SAFETY that protects the “radio remote control + machine” system, when it is in neutral (rest position), from involuntary movements caused by possible radio remote control faults.
LILKNPA0 4 WARNINGS FOR USE ! THE OPERATOR MUST ALWAYS VISUALLY FOLLOW all movements of the machine and its load remaining inside radio remote control typical working range. BE POSITIONED in a way that permits him to see the “machine + radio remote control” system, and above all the load, in the best possible way. Before using the radio remote control ALWAYS MAKE SURE that the STOP push-button can be pressed and released: if it does not work, do not use the radio remote control.
LILKNPA0 5 WARNINGS FOR MAINTENANCE ! ENSURE THAT THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE TRANSMITTING UNIT BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE WORK. Any faults should be repaired by authorised Autec personnel using original Autec spare parts only.
LILKNPA0 6 LK TRANSMITTING UNIT OPERATION POWER ON AND STARTING 1 Switch on the transmitter unit by inserting the key in the appropriate slot. 2 To start the radio remote control functions, press the “START” button for 1÷2 seconds. After starting, the green signalling LED always lights up. COMMAND ACTIVATION Operate the pushbutton and/or the selector actuators relevant to whatever movement or selection command is to be carried out.
LILKNPA0 ! STOPPING The STOP button should be used when it is necessary to stop the machine immediately in order to check any danger condition. To stop the machine immediately, press the STOP button. To start working again, after having made sure that the working conditions are safe, turn the STOP button in the direction indicated to deactivate it and repeat the starting procedure. BATTERY To recharge a flat battery, proceed as follows: 1.
LILKNPA0 7 FREQUENCIES The radio frequency of AUTEC radio remote controls is included in the group of frequencies permitted by regulations that are current at the moment of radio remote control entry onto the market. Each radio remote control is programmed by the producer in the AUTOMATIC scan mode (producer's standard programming) or MANUAL selection mode.
LILKNPA0 8 PROGRAMMING ! The dip switches must be programmed with the battery removed from the transmitting unit and can be done only by authorised personnel. DIP SWITCHES ON E16STXUS1 RADIO TRANSMITTING MODULE Group of 4 dip switches The group of eight dip switches found in the module are necessary for programming some operations and setting the operating frequency. The programming set in the other group of four dip switches must never be modified.
LILKNPA0 9 LK TRANSMITTING UNIT DIAGNOSTIC If the “machine+radio remote control” system does not start, check if the problem is caused by the radio remote control or the machine. Before carrying out any verifications, check the functioning of the machine with the cable control panel: - if it does not switch on, the problem lies with the machine itself - if it does switch on, the problem lies with the radio remote control.
