2.6 Procedure for the radio remote controls operation
Herebelow we summarize the procedure to be explained to the final operator for the use of the radio remote
control:
- Turn ON the crane electric system.
- Run the truck engine, then turn on the hydraulic pump and provide for crane correct stabilisation. Make sure the
key switch (ref. P) is turned to the “radio” position.
- Make sure the emergency stop push-buttons were not pressed accidentally, especially the button located on the
transmitter (ref. A). Otherwise, the radio remote control will not operate.
- In case of radio remote controls supplied with switch for the 7th and 8th function (ref. J), make sure the switch is turned to
the position in which the supplementary functions are disabled. Otherwise, the radio remote control will not operate.
- Turn by 90° the black key (ref. F) and wait until you hear a continuous sound coming from the transmitter, then
the second faster sound. The green LED located on the transmitter will start flashing.
- Wait for at least three seconds before pushing the green push-button (ref. G) to conclude the starting
procedure.
The yellow LED (normal) will light up, while the green LED (signal), and the yellow LED (operation) will be flashing
on the receiver unit.
NOTE: This procedure is valid even if you use the emergency cable.
Turn off the radio remote control by turning the black key (ref. F) 90° anticlockwise.

1- Operation
u The radio control is made up of a transmitting unit, also called pushbutton panel, which is equipped with a
support to be attached to the belt. As a standard feature the pushbutton has 8 single control levers to carry out
8 crane functions.
u The receiving unit, positioned near the manual control bank, dialogues only with its respective transmitting
unit: the recognition code is inserted into ADMO, and ensures that the crane can move only after an intentional
action by the crane operator.
u Whenever you operate a control lever or one of the operation switches of ancillary functions (placed on the
pushbutton panel), this information is transmitted, through the radio signal, to the receiving unit.
The receiving unit decodes the radio signal and changes it into an electrical control that operates the crane control
bank or one of the ancillary functions - if connected
u During the work, the operator can carry out more movements at the same time and the crane handling occurs
in a proportional way: if small shifts on the control levers of the pushbutton panel are made, with respect to the
neutral position, crane movements at low speed will consistently be run, and the more the control lever is shifted,
the higher is the crane operating speed.

N.B: It is recommended to perform any technical operation on radio control only after having completely
read the following chapters. Therefore, you will have the sufficient technical knowledge to carry out all
the necessary settings for optimal operation and to carry out some operations in case of any operating
failures.

N.B: We remind you that power supply to radio control must be cut off, by removing electrical cables from
truck batteries, in case welding operations on crane or truck are required.

NOTE: On CAN Dynamic version, (available only with DMU PLUS) pins 30 , 62 and 60 are not used. The wire is
not even connected to pin 30, and in place of it, pin 4 is connected; it signals when the radio is turned to REMOTE
mode. (This signal will be present on pin 3 of X13 and used by DMU to control CAN communication.)

NOTE: In the configuration of crane not equipped with DMU, connectors X10, X13, X14 are not connected and
the Blinker cable is used and connected to pins 57 (GND) and 16 (operation).

The connector B is provided with 4 poles: the same connector is used for
connecting the cable for programming through computer, and the electri-
cal cable provided with the crane is required for the radio control use in
case of an emergency.
This emergency may result from a failure in the rice-transmitting system of
the radio, or from the inability to use the system due to radio transmission
conflicts with other electronic devices in the area where you work with
the crane.

The receiving unit cover is provided with the key selector C with which you
select the select mode to handle the crane:
- RADIO, the crane is handled using the radio control
- HAND, the crane is handled by operating the manual levers placed
on the hydraulic control bank.

B C
The antenna is fitted to the receiving unit upper part.
NOTE: to ensure maximum reception of radio signals emitted by the
transmitting unit, the antenna must be left free in a high position of the
crane: any guard fitted to the receiving unit, for aesthetical purposes,
may jeopardise the radio control operation.

3 - Instructions for use
u
Read the instructions carefully and completely before you carry out any repair to the crane.
u The BMS-2 system is used with various types of transmitting units, therefore, it is possible that the pictures
and the drawings in these instructions for use do not represent exactly the transmitting unit. If you check
the Technical Documentation of the specific transmitting unit delivered with the documentation of the
specific crane, you will find the wiring/functional diagram of the radio control panel fitted to the crane.

3.1 Numbers of production and system


u Any technical explanation you may require, or the request of spare parts, must always be accompanied by
the numbers of production and system of the transmitting and receiving units.
The numbers are on the label on the unit outer part.

1. Special homologations, such as BTZ, FCC, CE, etc. and HF part.


2. Type of transmitting or receiving unit.
3. Frequency channel
4. Production number – The 1st position shows the place of produc-
tion (1=H-Germany, 2=H-Malta, 3=H-USA, 4=H-Italy).
The 4 following positions show the month and the year of produc-
tion.
The last 6 positions are the system address.
5. System number -Hetronic identification number
of transmitting or receiving unit.

3.2 Not authorised spare parts


u
Use only original spare parts. The use of not original spare parts may significantly affect the functionality,
the duration and the safety of this system and terminates the warranty. EFFER denies liability for any claim,
damage or injury even fatal to people, resulting from the use of not original spare parts.

3.3 Emergency stop function


u
The most important feature of remote radio control is the emergency
stop. Whenever you operate a transmitting unit joystick, to handle
the crane, a functionality control of the emergency stop button is
automatically carried out.
When the emergency stop button is pressed, the relay module trig-
gers a lock of all the movements of the machine. The receiving unit is
turned to safety mode.

The BMS-2 receving unit dispaly shows now “0 0 2” which indicates


the state “emergency stop on (pressed)” which is turned on.

36
THE POWER OF PERFORMANCE
Radio controls - HETRONIC BMS2 C4.2
To restart the system, just release the emergency stop button: it reacts faster
than any other function, then push START. When the emergency stop is
turned on, the system ignores all the other signals.

When the emergency stop is activated, the system disregards all other
signals.

During the operation steps of radio control, the display sho “0 0 1” to indicate that the system is waiting for the
start, i.e. the green button next to the transmitting unit must be pressed, to enable radio communication.
Once the radio control operation step is completed, if the display shows “0 0 4” this shows that radio com-
munication between the transmitting unit and the receiving unit has not been operated; if this numbering
remains after other attempts, a failure is present.

- Setting minimum speed.


Move slowly the joystick until you hear a beep emitted by
DMU. Hold the joystick in this position. Now you can set
the speed of this function with the help of the buttons
specially dedicated to programming, on the transmitter.
- Press in direction “+” to increase the speed and in direc-
tion “-” to reduce it.
We recommend that you set the speed of the function
on a level which is as low as possible. In this way it will be
possible to obtain a proportional excursion on the joystick
much broader and uniform.

- Setting maximum speed.


Move the joystick until its maximum position. Press “+” to increase speed and “-” to reduce it.
The receiving unit can program one single function at a time. Make sure that (with the cross-type joystick) only
a command at a time is controlled. When setting of the function in one direction is finished, proceed with the
other directions and functions as described above.
NOTE: the function “snail” is independent from the function “hare”. So, if you need to change the speed of the
function “snail”, select it before.
When the required setting is completed, wait at least 10 sec. before disconnecting the transmitting unit. The
new values are stored automatically in the system.

38
THE POWER OF PERFORMANCE
Radio controls - HETRONIC BMS2 C4.2
NOTE: All the remote radio controls are controlled by EFFER with settings pre-adjusted in ADMO key.

However, it is possible to replace electronic boards, encoders or decoders, but ADMO key must always be reinstalled
on the new board as this is the true identity card of the system.
If you request a spare radio control, remember to provide the crane identification codes to be able to receive it
with the correct settings.

3.6 Starting
u 1. Turn on the transmitting unit. You will hear a short acoustic signal.
u 2. Wait for the 2nd acoustic signal (about 3 sec.)
u 3. Press Start/acoustic signal button G again.
G
The system correct operation is reported on the receiving unit display ( “0
0 0” must appear).
If the control elements, the joystick or the switch lever are not turned
to the “off” (neutral) position, the transmitting unit will not be oper-
ated by pressing the Start/acoustic signal button.

3.7 Low battery level


u If, in the transmitting unit, the battery voltage drops below 3.4 volt, the
system signals a state of undervoltage. The red and green warning lights on
the trasmitter are lighted up and flash alternately. From that moment, you have
10 minutes at disposal to position the crane/machine in a safe place and to
turn off the transmitting unit. After 9 minutes the beeper will also come into
operation and after approx. 1 minute the radio control turns OFF.
You therefore have a minute of time before the system automatically switches
to safety mode. Further to this time disconnection, the transmitting unit sends
an emergency stop signal and all the movements of the crane or machine
are stopped.

To reboot the system, it is necessary to insert a charged battery in the trans-


mitting unit.

39
THE POWER OF PERFORMANCE
Radio controls - HETRONIC BMS2 C4.2
3.8 Optional control by cable
u This option allows you to operate the crane while the transmitting unit and
the receiving unit are connected with a cable. This is useful in situations where
there is radio noise or when the absence of a charged battery makes remote
transmission impossible. The cable supplies the transmitting unit with power, so
battery is not required. The system works even when battery is not in the battery
compartment.

3.9 Error localization


u If the system does not work after a normal starting, look at the enclosed table to identify error localization,
to check the cause and determine a remedial action.
