Safety Instructions
Read through these operating instructions carefully before working with the radio system. This applies in particular to the installation, commissioning and maintenance of the radio system.
The operating instructions are a constituent part of the radio control system and must always be kept close at hand for the responsible personnel.
The term ‘machine’ is used in the operating instructions for the different possible uses of the radio system.
Intended Use
The radio system serves to control machines and for data transfer. Observe the job safety and accident prevention regulations applicable to each application.
The intended use also includes reading the operating instructions and adhering to all safety information contained therein.
The radio system must not be used in areas where there is a risk of explosion, nor for the control of machines used to convey persons, unless it is explicitly approved by the manufacturer for these uses.
Modifications to the radio system may only be carried out by specialist personnel who have been trained and authorized by HBC-radiomatic. All modifications must be documented at the factory in the radio control master file.
The radio control system safety devices must not be modified, removed or bypassed. In particular, modifications to any part of the radio system's complete emergency-stop system are impermissible.
Safety Instructions for Installation and Operation
The electrical connection per the accompanying output wiring diagram must be established by a qualified electrician exclusively.
The receiver may only be opened by trained personnel. Components inside the receiver can be energized at life-threatening voltages. The supply voltage for the machine must be deactivated before the receiver is opened.
Please also note with radio systems, that the presence of persons in the danger zone - in particular beneath the load (cranes!) - is prohibited in every instance.
Select a safe location for radio control, from which you have a good and complete view of the working movements of the machine, the load movements and the surrounding working conditions.
It is not permissible to put a radio transmitter unattended to one side whilst activated. Always switch the radio transmitter off when it is not required. This applies in particular if you change location, when working without radio control, during breaks and at the end of work. Always safeguard the radio transmitter against use by unauthorized persons, for example by locking it away.
In the event of an emergency and with all faults, switch the radio transmitter off immediately by pressing the STOP switch.
Only operate the radio system when it is in perfect working order. Faults and defects that could influence safety must be rectified before the system is put back into operation, by specialists who have been trained and authorized by HBC-radiomatic.
Note that the operational directions of the operating elements may appear inverted depending on location and viewing angle to the machine. This applies in particular to rotary cranes, if your location changes from inside to outside the radius of the crane. The operator must make himself familiar with the directional markings on the machine before the start of work.
Repairs may only be carried out by specialist personnel who have been trained and authorized by HBC-radiomatic. Use original replacement parts and accessories (e.g. rechargeable batteries) exclusively; otherwise it is possible that the equipment safety can no longer be guaranteed and our extended warranty will be voided.
Remain vigilant when working with the radio system and familiarize yourself with its functions. This applies in particular if you are working with it for the first time or if you work with it only occasionally.
Check each time before starting work the function of the STOP switch.
When you press the STOP switch with the transmitter on, the status LED and the display of the transmitter have to go out. If the status LED and the display don’t go out then you have to disable
the radio control system immediately.
Remove the battery and the radiomatic® iLOG from the transmitter and inform a service technician.

Licence exempt
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1.this device may not cause interference, and
2.this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes:
1.l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
2.l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
Operation
The transmitter is equipped with an electronic radiomatic® iLOG key. radiomatic® iLOG contains all the data required for operating the transmitter. Operation is not possible without radiomatic® iLOG!
Depending on the version the radiomatic® iLOG can also be used for operation of replacement transmitters of identical construction.
When activating the transmitter and if the radio connection is interrupted (e. g. if the connection is lost or the transmission range is exceeded), the transmitter reacts with the so-called enforced zero-position.
Release all operating elements so they can return to the zero-position and actuate the Start-button. The machine will not react if the operating elements are not in zero-position. This prevents uncontrolled machine movements after the radio connection has been interrupted.
