Data Feedback Function

Thanks to the Data Feedback function, the following is available to the User:

• Images filmed by cameras, related to the working area or to specific Machine movements.
• Information and/or signals concerning some specific situations and the movements of the controlled Machine.

The Data Feedback function operates through the display and the LED array on the Transmitting Unit.

During normal operation, pay particular attention to the images shown  andto the indications given on the display and/or on the LEDs on the Transmitting Unit: they can be helpful to evaluate the Machine working status, but they do not replace nor exhaust the necessary visual inspections the User needs to carry out so that the Machine operation and movements are performed in safety conditions.
Any image shown and any indication signaled on the display and/or through the LEDs can never be considered or used as a safety signal or for legal metrology.
When operating the Machine, remember that the Radio Remote Control does not cut in autonomously when potential hazardous situations are shown and signaled.
The display does not signal the presence of people, animals or belongings, even if they appear in the cameras’ frame, and does not signal the risk of hitting people, animals or belongings.

Operation with display
The display on the Transmitting Unit shows the images filmed by the camera/s. Signal icons, measurements collected from the Machine and their description may be shown too.
The Machine Manufacturer chooses which information is displayed and the way they are displayed (images and/or icons and/or measurements and/or descriptions).
In addition, the battery level and the quality of the radio link may also appear. Images filmed by the cameras are transmitted to the PAU (Power & Acquisition Unit), that in turn sends them to the Transmitting Unit through the access point.
The instructions and warnings for the cameras, the PAU and the access point are to be found in the corresponding manuals that come with the single devices.

A Cameras
B PAU
C Access point
D Antenna
E Wi-Fi connection
F Transmitting Unit
G Radio link
H Receiving Unit

Images of the cameras and of the access point provided above are for illustrative purposes only.

The Transmitting Unit communicates with the Receiving Unit through a radio link described in “Part A” of the Instruction Manual. The Transmitting Unit communicates with the access point through Wi-Fi connection.

The Wi-Fi connection between the access point and the Transmitting Unit, and the radio link between the Transmitting Unit and the Receiving Unit are two independent

The visualization of images filmed by cameras on the display may interrupt in any moment without prior notice due to the interruption of the Wi- Fi connection between the access point and the Transmitting Unit.

The Machine Manufacturer, the Installer, the Owner, the User and/or the Maintenance Technician, must make sure that the interruption of the Wi-Fi connection between the access point and the Transmitting Unit can never lead to a hazardous situation in the specific working application.

A delay occurs between the camera filming and the visualization of the filmed images on the display on the Transmitting Unit. This delay cannot be removed or reduced.

Depending on the display configuration set by the Machine Manufacturer or by the Installer, if the Wi-Fi connection between the access point and the Transmitting Unit is interrupted, the last filmed image before the interruption may remain displayed.

The Machine Manufacturer, the Installer, the Owner, the User and/or the Maintenance Technician, must make sure that the delay between the camera image filming and the display of the image on the Transmitting Unit display cannot generate or contribute to generate a hazardous situation in the specific working application.

Operation with LED
If the Transmitting Unit has an LED array for the Data Feedback function, specific Machine conditions are signalled if they are illuminated (by way of example: load limits, limit switch). The signalled conditions depend on the settings chosen by the Machine Manufacturer.

Technical Data Sheet

The Radio Remote Control ‘s Technical Data Sheet:

• Describes the Transmitting Unit’s configuration
• Indicates the relation between commands sent by the Transmitting Unit and those available on the Receiving Unit.

The Technical Data Sheet must be filled in, checked and signed by the Installer, who is responsible for correct wiring.

A Technical Data Sheet must always be kept together with this Manual: if you need to use the Technical Data Sheet for administrative purposes (tests, check, etc.), make a copy of it.

The wiring of the Receiving Unit’s outputs must always reflect the wiring indicated in the Technical Data Sheet.

The Transmitting Unit always has a green LED [B] and a red LED [A] that provide information regarding the Radio Remote Control

The meaning of signals provided by the LEDs identified with “C” are explained in the Data Feedback function part (see paragraph 3.2). The meaning of LEDs related to the Data Feedback function are decided and established by the Machine Manufacturer depending on the Machine’s functions for which he wants to receive information.

Signals provided by the red LED [A] indicate a Radio Remote Control malfunction. The meaning of such signals and possible actions to perform are described in chapter 11.

The meaning of signals provided by the green LED [B], when the red LED [A] is off, are described in the following table.

The green LED blinks fast.

The red LED is off.

| The Transmitting and Receiving Unit do not

communicate.

The green LED repeats the sequence: a blink and a pause. The red LED is off.| The Radio Remote Control is started and the Units communicate via radio link in the 863-870MHz

frequency band.

The green LED repeats the sequence: two blinks and a pause. The red LED is off.| The Radio Remote Control is started and the Units communicate via radio link in the 915-928MHz

frequency band.

The green LED repeats the sequence: three blinks and a pause.

The red LED is off.

| The Radio Remote Control is started and the Units communicate via cable control.

The meaning of the green [B] and red [A] LED signals cannot be modified.

Acoustic signals

The Transmitting Unit has an acoustic signal device that activates when:
