3.1 Conformity
Dynamic series radio remote controls working within the frequency band 915 -
928 MHz are allowed to be used in the North American market.
Each of these radio remote controls complies with the following requirements:
- FCC (Federal Communication Commission) Part 15
IC (Industry Canada) RSS-102
Unit FCC ID IC number
FJS OQA-FJSNF022 9061A-FJSNF022
FJL OQA-FJLNF022 9061A-FJLNF022

Autec Dynamic series industrial
radio remote controls are used to
control machines from a distance,
without physical connections (i.e.
wires or connecting cables) between the user and the machine.
Each of these industrial radio remote controls consists of a portable transmitting unit, from which
the user can remotely control the
machine, and a receiving unit installed on board the machine itself.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Applications
3.2 Applications
In compliance with the risk analysis (see chapter 4), this radio remote control can
be installed on hoisting and material handling machines and on machines for
moving, raising and transporting people (i.e. hydraulic cranes, aerial work platforms, telehandlers, concrete pumps).
This radio remote control cannot be installed:
- on machines installed in places where equipment with explosion-proof
characteristics is required
- on machines where the receiving unit power supply does not come from
a battery or from a power supply unit with safety isolating transformer
- to control loads that are not isolated from AC power supply (if that is the
case)
- on machines that may generate dangerous situations if they stop due to
the loss of radio link
- on machines for which a risk analysis (see chapter 4) is not possible or
gave negative results.
Autec cannot be held responsible if the radio remote control is installed on forbidden applications.
3.3 Radio link
7
The two units constantly communicate with one another through a radio link. This
is an essential requirement to ensure safety for the radio remote controlled machine.
Messages from the units are coded through an address stored in the S-KEY (see
paragraph 13.2) and in the receiving unit. This address is unique (Autec produces
it only once), univocal (specific for each radio remote control) and not reproducible. Each unit can only decode the messages coming from the unit with the same
address. This prevents messages from other radio equipment from activating any
system function.
The units send coded messages to one another:
- messages sent by the transmitting unit contain operational commands to be
carried out by the machine
- messages sent by the receiving unit contain information useful for the au-
tomatic management of the working frequency and information about
measurements collected from the machine (Data Feedback function).

Frequencies
3.4 Frequencies
The radio link between the units of Autec Dynamic series radio remote controls
is built at one of the frequencies permitted by the European standards in force
when the system is put on the market.
Dynamic series industrial radio remote controls communicate either in dynamic
or static mode. Mode is set by the machine manufacturer.
3.4.1 Dynamic mode
A radio remote control communicating in dynamic mode:
- uses a working frequency in the band 915 - 928 MHz
- checks that the frequency is free before using it
- continually changes the working frequency to maintain the radio link even
when interference occurs.
3.4.2 Static mode
A radio remote control communicating in static mode:
- uses a working frequency in the band 915 - 928 MHz
- checks that the frequency is free before using it
- always works at the same frequency until the stop function is activated (see
paragraph 3.6.1).
3.5 Classification of commands
Commands sent by the transmitting unit are classified according to their type.
3.5.1 Command type: analogue, digital or direction command
Commands sent by the transmitting unit can either be analogue or digital.
Analogue commands generate proportional outputs as a function of the position
of the corresponding actuator.
Digital commands switch the status of their corresponding output, according to
the position of the related actuator. This status can either be on or off.
Direction commands are digital commands paired with analogue commands, and
are used to specify the movement direction.
3.5.2 Name of commands
All commands sent by the transmitting unit are identified by abbreviations, which
are also written in the technical data sheet to highlight the match between commands sent and machine functions.
The names of outputs in the receiving unit are not the names of commands.
Check the technical data sheet to know which name they were given.

Safety functions
3.6 Safety functions
Autec radio remote controls are equipped with some functions that provide high
safety levels, in order to safeguard the safety of people and property.
3.6.1 Stop function
The stop function brings the machine to a safe state every time it is necessary to
stop it due to a potentially hazardous situation. This function is either voluntarily
enabled by the user (active stop), as appropriate, or it cuts in automatically and
autonomously (passive stop).
Active stop
Active stop is a function enabled by the STOP pushbutton (see paragraph 13.4).
The transmitting unit sends to the receiving unit a command that immediately
stops the machine. When the STOP pushbutton is pressed, the machine stops in
shorter time than when passive stop cuts in.
Passive stop
Passive stop is a function that cuts in when a fault occurs during operation. When
the radio link is incorrect or interrupted, the receiving unit autonomously stops the
radio remote control. The cut-in time of this function (passive stop cut-in time) is
set by the machine manufacturer (see technical data sheet).
3.6.2 Protection against unintended movements from the standstill position
(UMFS)
This safety function protects the system “machine+radio remote control” from unintended movements, namely machine movements not activated intentionally by
the user, but resulting from possible electrical and mechanical failure of the radio
remote control.
Such safety function constantly checks the neutral (rest) position of the actuators
that drive the machine's movements. Each time one of those actuators is operated, the transmitting unit sends both the movement command and the “SAFETY”
command. This activates the two outputs that drive the safety device provided on
the machine.

Identifying the radio remote control
3.8 Identifying the radio remote control
The serial number (S/N) is the only reference to be used to uniquely identify the
radio remote control, both if maintenance is needed and when providing statements to competent bodies.
The serial number (S/N) and other information regarding the radio remote control
are provided in some plates both on the transmitting and on the receiving unit.
These plates must not be:
- removed from their position (removal will invalidate the guarantee)
- altered or damaged (contact Autec for replacement).
