LA70 and LA70M Range Limiters TM70 Radio Remote Controls
Introduction
System Description
TM70 radio remote control systems can be equipped with a range limitation option for applications
where the operator has to be in a particular place for safety. One example can be on overhead cranes.
When away from the working area, it deactivates the movement controls while maintaining the radio
communication.
The system consists of one or more Infrared transmitters LA70, installed either in fixed positions or on the
controlled machine, oriented in such a way that it covers the targeted working zone. In this case the
remote control transmitter is equipped with a sensor which receives the information coming from the
LA70 transmitter. This information is analyzed by the transmitter and determines if the operator has left
the working area. Consequently, outputs are deactivated.

Introduction
Infrared Sensor
The infrared sensor is located in the remote control transmitter and its function is to receive the infrared
information coming from the LA70 transmitter.
Sensor location on the top
The transmitter receives the information from the Infra red transmitter (LA70), and checks its identity. As
soon as the sensor stops receiving the signal coming from the crane, the transmitter LED, which was
green, begins to flash in red, (in case of console box transmitters, the buzzer also beeps), in order to let
the operator know that he has moved away from the working zone. If this situation lasts longer than 5
seconds, all the active commands are cancelled, although communication is maintained with the receiver
(this parameter can be changed on the EEPROM. In this way the main contactor and the selection orders
are maintained.
In order to return to the operating mode, the operator has to move back into the working zone.
Movement orders must be disabled in order to restart movement. Once the transmitter enters the
working area, movement orders will not be ready to be used unless they have gone to neutral position.
This is to make movements start in first speed. If the remote control is provided with a Display, whenever
the transmitter is out of range, the message “Out of Range” will be displayed.
The remote control does have 4 modes of operation defined in the EEPROM:
1. Range Limiter only at start up (Electronic Key): In order to make the transmitter work, it is necessary
that the transmitter is inside the starting zone, defined by the position of the infrared transmitter.
2. Range Limiter only in operation: The transmitter can be started anywhere inside or outside of the
working area, but the movement orders will not work until the transmitter is inside the working zone.
3. Range Limiter at startup and operation: The transmitter in order to work must be inside the working
zone always.
4. Range Limiter only as an output Relay: This functionality makes the transmitter not to show “In range”
or “Out of range” situation in the transmitter itself. It will not mask any order. The information will be
sent to the receiver in order to process the information as an output relay or a condition to the relay
table.

LA70 Infrared Transmitter
This is the element installed on the machine, which generates the infrared modulated radiation with an
identity code, which permits the sensor its identification.
Emission angle in long travel direction is wider than those of cross travel direction. In this way, the
working area covered by a transmitter is similar in shape to an ellipse, whose dimensions depend on the
position of the infra red transmitter over the ground.
Approximately, the diagonals of the ellipse according to the height are the following:
In cases in which it is believed that the area covered by one transmitter is not enough, slave transmitters
can be installed.
LA70 Installation
Caution
Make sure that the machine is switched off during the assembly operation. Clear the work area and use
security clothing.
Check the power supply and disconnect the power supply to the machine.
Do not forget to connect the earth cable.
Use flame resistant cables for the connections.
Find a suitable place for the installation of the infrared transmitter, away from elements, which could
•
generate intense electrical disturbances and obstacles to the transmission of light.
Choose the correct power supply and connect it.
•
Fit the jumper selector in master position.
•
Select the code programmed in the EEPROM memory of the transmitter. The selected code on the
•
LA70 transmitter has to be the same as the one programmed on the Remote control EEPROM.

LA70 Infrared Transmitter
In cases in which the area covered by a transmitter is not enough, more LA70 transmitters can be
connected in series, programmed as slave with the jumper. In this case the code is transmitted
synchronously by the slave transmitter.
Caution
The communication connection between transmitters must be done with shielded wires.
