1.1 How the radio remote control works
Industrial radio remote controls are used to control machines from a distance, without physical
connection between the user and the machine (i.e. wires or connecting cables). They consist
of a portable transmitting unit, from which the user remotely controls the machine, and a
receiving unit installed on board the machine itself.

Radio remote control description
1.3 Applications
Dynamic series radio remote controls can be installed on hoisting and material handling
machines and on machines for moving, raising and transporting people (e.g. hydraulic cranes,
aerial work platforms, telehandlers, concrete pumps).
Dynamic series radio remote controls cannot be installed:
- on machines working in zones with risk of explosion
- on machines where the receiving unit power supply does not come from
a battery or from a power supply unit with safety isolating transformer
- on machines that 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 assessment (see chapter 2) is not possible
or gave negative results.
Autec cannot be held responsible if the radio remote control is installed on forbidden
applications.
1.4 Radio link
The transmitting unit constantly communicates with the receiving unit through a radio link.
This is an essential requirement to ensure safety for the radio remote controlled machine.
The two units use messages coded through an address that is unique (produced by Autec
only once), univocal (specic for each radio remote control) and cannot be reproduced. Each
unit can only decode messages coming from the unit with the same address.
This prevents messages from other radio equipment from activating any "machine+radio
remote control" 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 automatic
management of the working frequency and information about measurements collected
from the machine (Data Feedback function).

1.5 Classicationofcommands
Commands sent by the transmitting unit are classied according to their type.
1.5.1 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 o.
Direction commands are digital commands paired with analogue commands, and are used
to specify the movement direction.
1.5.2 Name of commands
All commands sent by the transmitting unit are identied by abbreviations, which are written in
the technical data sheet to highlight the match between commands sent and machine functions.
1.6 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.
1.6.1 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 6.5) .
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).

1.6.2 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 checks the neutral (rest) position of the actuators that control the
machine's movements. Each time one of those actuators is operated, the transmitting unit
sends both the movement command and the “SAFETY” command. Depending on the specic
application, and according to the receiving unit, outputs related to movement and SAFETY
command are wired in series; alternatively the SAFETY command's outputs drive the safety
device provided on the machine.
Radio remote control description
1.7 Identifying the radio remote control
As required by standard IEC 60204-32, each radio remote control is uniquely identied
through a serial number (S/N).
The serial number is provided in the identication plate on each radio remote control unit.
This is the only reference to be used both for maintenance operations and for declarations
to competent bodies.
Plates on the units must not be:
- removed from their position (removal voids the guarantee)
- altered or damaged (contact Autec for replacement)

Risk assessment 11
2 Risk assessment
When using and installing an industrial radio remote control it is therefore always necessary
to evaluate if the machine can be radio remote controlled.
In fact, as required by standards ISO 12100 and ISO 14121, all machines must undergo risk
assessment and related analysis.
The radio remote control can only be installed and used if this assessment gives positive results.
The machine manufacturer and/or the person who decides upon radio
remote control installation and use is responsible for this risk assessment.
Autec cannot be held responsible if this assessment has not been carried out correctly
or is incomplete.
If required by the risk assessment, implement protection measures to prevent, reduce and
report potential hazardous situations.
2.1 Risk assessment for radio remote controlled machines
When carrying out risk assessment for the machine or for the system where the radio remote
control is installed, the following must be considered:
- some machines cannot be radio remote controlled: check for forbidden applications (see
paragraph 1.3)
- the radio link between the two units may be interrupted due to persistent disturbance
or interference.
- all warnings related to installation, use and maintenance provided by Autec must be
taken into account
2.1.1 Aspects related to radio link
Whenever the radio link is interrupted (i.e. stop, low battery, automatic switch o, receiving
unit not powered):
- all outputs of the receiving unit are disabled
- it is not possible to enable or disable the machine commands through the transmitting
unit until the radio remote control is started up again.
2.1.2 Delay in command response time
Due to the characteristics of radio propagation (i.e.: EM interference, outof-working-range condition), a delay up to the "Passive stop time" may
occasionally occur from the moment a command in the transmitting unit
is released to the moment its corresponding output in the receiving unit
is deactivated.
Those who decide upon the installation of the radio remote control must make sure that this
delay never leads to a dangerous situation in the specic uses.
