1.3 Safety protection device
A safety protection device is designed to prevent accidents of intelligence aided lifting
equipment, consisting of limit switches that limit movement, steel cable locking device, overload
prevention device and forced cooling devices.
1.3.1 Limit switch
The intelligence aided lifting equipment is provided with limit switches (Fig. 1. 1) to ensure
reliable operation. A stroke limit switch comprises of an upper and a lower limit switches. When
the equipment operates upward to some 10 cm before the upper limit, it starts to decelerate to
prevent the weight from breaking away from the lifting hook. If the equipment reaches the upper
limit position, the limit switch will be triggered and the equipment can only move downward. The
lower limit switch is designed to ensure at least two turns of steel cable stay on the reel. The
equipment can move upward only if the lower limit switch is triggered.
Fig. 1. 1 Stroke limit switch
1.3.2 Steel cable locking device
The intelligence aided lifting equipment is provided with a micro switch to detect steel cable
looseness (Fig. 1. 2). When a steel cable is loose in operating equipment, the micro switch will
detect such looseness and trigger relevant actions, and then the display on the handle will indicate
“steel cable looseness alert” and the equipment can only move upward.

1.3.3 Overload prevention device
The intelligence aided lifting equipment is provided with a weighing sensor (Fig. 1. 3). When
the weight to be lifted exceeds the set value or rated bearing capacity, lifting will stop and
“Overload Alarm” be displayed on the screen, in which the equipment can move downward only
(overload weight < 150% of bearing capacity).
Fig. 1. 3 Weighing sensor
1.3.4 Forced cooler
The intelligence aided lifting equipment is provided with a temperature sensor (Fig. 1. 4). It
is configured to detect the real-time temperature of braking resistor. In case that the detected
temperature is above 50 °C, the DC fan will produce forced air to cool the braking resistor. While
in the event that such temperature is above 100 °C, system operation will be suspended until the
temperature drops back to 80 °C. This device is applied only for 200 KG, 300 KG and 600 KG
types.

Chapter IV Basic function
4.1 Mode of manual hold
4.1.1 Operation mode
When the operator holds the sliding handle, the operation mode of the handle display
switches from the “locking mode” to the “mode of manual hold”. The operator can control the
system up and down movement through sliding handle. The sliding handle has an intermediate
zero position. The farther the operator moves the slide handle from the neutral zero, the faster the
equipment can run up and down.
4.1.2 Infrared sensor
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment is provided with infrared sensor (Fig. 4 1). When the
sensor does not detect the operator, the system is in the “lock mode” and the operator cannot move
the system up or down through the sliding handle control system. When the sensor detects the
operator, the system is in the “mode of manual hold” and the operator can move the system up or
down through the sliding handle control system. The system has a manual timeout value setting,
when the sensor detects the operator, but the operator does not operate the sliding handle for a
time longer than the set value, the operator cannot control the system to go up and down at this
time, and the operator needs to leave and re-hold the sliding handle.
Fig. 4 1 Infrared sensor sensing area
4.1.3 Adjust the maximum operating speed in mode of manual hold
In the mode of manual hold, the maximum operating speed is divided into 10 levels, and the
25
Page 26
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
maximum speed in each stage is the number of stages × 10% of the maximum speed. The user
may set the maximum operating speed in the mode of manual hold through the speed setting in the
menu according to the demand. Specific methods of operation are as follows:
1. When the main interface displays “lock mode”, click the “ENT” button to enter the main
menu interface.
2. Use “UP” and “DOWN” to select “Speed Up/Down Adjustment” and click the “ENT”
button to enter its menu.
3. Select “Speed Settings” → “Manual Speed Settings”, select the desired level with “UP”
and “DOWN” and confirm with the “ENT” key.
4. Press the “ENT” button to exit to the main interface. The maximum operating speed
setting in the mode of manual hold is completed.
4.1.4 No-load deceleration function
In practical applications, the operator always expects the load to run stably at a slower speed
from the worktable (pallet, floor) and then return to a higher operating speed. The no-load
deceleration function provides a period of deceleration when the equipment is lifting the load.
When the equipment is lifting the load, the no-load deceleration function will determine
whether it is necessary to perform deceleration operation according to the comparison of the
current load weight value and the preset no-load weight threshold. Where the current load weight
value is less than the preset no-load weight threshold, the equipment will run at the speed stage in
the no-load speed adjustment for the duration in the no-load speed time limit setting, and then
resume to the normal operating speed. If it is within the no-load speed time limit, when the current
load weight value changes are no less than the preset no-load weight threshold, the speed will
return to normal operating speed. When the current load weight value is larger than or equal to the
preset no-load weight threshold, the equipment performs no deceleration function.
Note:
The no-load operating speed can be set as larger than that in a normal operation.
4.1.4.1 Usage mode
1. When the main interface displays “locking mode”, click the "ENT" button to enter the
main menu interface.

4.2 Suspension mode
In this mode, the operator may raise or lower the load by applying an upward or downward
external force to the load. The greater the force applied, the greater the speed at which the load
moves.
4.2.1 Operation mode
1. Lift the load to the proper height in mode of manual hold.
2. Make sure “suspension setting” → “suspension function switch” in the menu is
“open”.
3. Press the “ENT” button to return to the main interface and move the hand away from the
sliding handle to put the system into “lock mode”.
4. Press “ESC” button for seconds (Fig. 4 2), the “lock mode” on the display screen
changes to “suspension mode” at this moment.
5. Grasp the load after the suspension mode is on.
6. Applying an upward force to the load raises the load, and applying a downward force to
the load lowers the load.
7. Repeat several times until you are familiar with the suspension mode.
Fig. 4 2 Suspension button
4.2.2 Notes to suspension mode
1. In suspension mode, triggering the infrared sensor will cause the suspension mode to
exit (i.e., exit when manual hold mode is triggered).
2. Do not apply additional force to the load during start of the suspension mode. The extra
27
Page 28
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
force will cause the system to record a larger or smaller reference weight. After
removing the extra force, the load may move in the opposite direction.
3. In the suspension mode, the system will exit the suspension mode when the operator
does not apply external force to operate the load for longer than the set suspension timeout
value.
4. Every time, the weight of the load changes, the suspension mode shall be restarted.
4.3 Levitation unloading mode
The suspension unloading mode is based on the suspension mode with the unloading function
mode added and such function can easily achieve smooth assembly on the slope in the suspended
state.
4.3.1 Operation steps
You may start the suspended unloading mode up by directly pressing the “UP” bottom on the
handle for seconds (about 2 seconds). If you are not familiar with the mode, you may exercise the
operation first.
1. Enter the suspension unloading mode (operation procedure refers to the operation
procedures of suspension mode).
2. After starting, hold the load and move it down so that the bottom part of the weight
contacts with the ramp (up to over-power for more than 1s). At this time, the green indicator
blinks quickly and the unloading mode is displayed.
3. Continue to apply a downward force to the load and let it fall slowly until the entire
bottom of the weight contacts the ramp.
4. Repeat the above exercise until you are familiar with the suspension unloading mode.
4.3.2 Suspension unloading mode description
1. When using the suspended unloading mode, the anti-rebound mode shall be over-power.
2. The smaller the upward over-power value is set, the easier it is to enter the unloading
mode from the suspension unloading mode.
4.4 Automatic suspension function
This feature allows the lifting equipment to automatically enter the suspension mode without
pressing the “ESC” button when the load meets the following conditions.
Detection weight: Used to determine the weight conditions for entering the automatic
suspension. | Load weight - Detection weight | <= Operating force - 0.5. If the set detection weight
is 50KG and the operating force threshold is set to 2KG, the weight condition for entering the
automatic suspension mode is 48.5-51.5KG.
Detection time: Used to determine the time conditions for entering the automatic suspension.
28
Page 29
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
If the detection time is set to 2 seconds, the system will automatically enter the suspension mode
when the load weight meets the automatic suspension condition for 2 seconds.
4.4.1 Operation steps
1. Enter the suspension setting menu and set the suspension function switch to ON;
2. In the “suspension setting”→“automatic suspension”, choose “open”;
3. In the “suspension setting” →“automatic suspension” →“detection weight”→“detection weight 1”, press “ENT” to save the current load weight value;
4. According to the actual situation, repeat the previous step to complete the setting of
multiple different detection weights (up to 10 groups of weight intervals can be set);
5. In the “suspension setting” →“automatic suspension” →“detection time”, set the
desired time and press “ENT” to save the setting;
6. After the setting is completed, when the load satisfies any set value of the detected
weight, and the set detection time is reached, the system automatically enters the
suspension mode.
Note:
In the menu where the detection weight value has been set, select “Invalid” by pressing “UP”
button, and then press “ESC” to exit. The saved detection weight will be reset to invalid.
If there are multiple objects in the application, where (maximum weight-minimum weight)
<= (2 × operating force threshold - 1), the automatic suspension function can be achieved with
only one detection weight number. The detection weight is set to the average of its maximum
weight and minimum weight.
4.5 Unloading function
This function allows the user to operate the lifting equipment to directly perform the
unloading mode. In this mode, the equipment is in a suspended state. The user can only
intermittently press the load downwardly, so that the load intermittently moves downwards
vertically and automatically when the load contacts the bottom surface to complete the unloading.
4.5.1 Operation Method
When the equipment is normal, press the “Down” button for about 2 seconds. The system
will directly perform the unloading mode when the green light will flash. (For the coaxial handle,
do not trigger the infrared sensor; for the stepless handle, do not press Up and Down buttons).
Press the load a little harder, the load will automatically move down a certain distance, then
press again, the load will move down a distance again ... until the load completes the plane
assembly.
Unloading speed setting: Set the speed level parameter in “Upgrade Speed Adjustment” →
29
Page 30
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
“Speed Setting” → “Unloading Speed”.
4.6 Soft limit
The intelligence aided lifting equipment is equipped with a soft limit function, which can
easily achieve 5 functions, fixed-point upper limit, lower limit, downward deceleration, upward
deceleration, and upward speed recovery. The soft limit has two sets - soft limit 1 and soft limit 2.
When the limit switching mode is signal switching, the parameters in soft limit 1 and soft limit 2
which are set in the mode of manual hold, the suspension mode, the suspension unloading mode,
and the unloading mode are all valid, and the related functions in the soft limit 2 are required to be
achieved by the double limit switching in the extended function. When the limit switching mode is
mode switching, the setting parameters in soft limit 1 are valid only in the mode of manual hold,
and the setting parameters in soft limit 2 are valid only in the suspension mode, suspension
unloading mode and unloading mode and the double limit function in the extended function will
not work in such mode. By default, the limit switching mode is signal switching.
4.6.1 Operation steps
Take the upper soft limit setting in soft limit 1 as an example:
1. The operation load moves to the soft limit position to be set.
2. When the main interface displays “lock mode”, click the “ENT” button to enter the main
menu interface.
3. Use “UP” and “DOWN” to select “soft limit” and click the “ENT” button to enter its
menu.
4. Select “soft limit 1” → “soft limit”, click the “ENT” button to keep the current position, and the display shows “setting successful”;
5. When the operation load is again moved from the bottom to the set position, the system
stops operating.
4.6.2 Precautions
When using soft limit, the following points need to be understood by the user.
1. When the equipment reaches the upper soft limit position and the lower soft limit
position, the system stops its operation and can only move in the opposite direction.
2. When the system does not set the slowdown point, the system decelerates automatically
when the system default distance is about 13cm from the upper (lower) limit point at full
speed; the deceleration distance of the system becomes shorter as the speed decreases.
3. When the upper soft limit and lower soft limit set points coincide, the equipment will
not move.
4. The upward slowdown point shall be set below the upward speed recovery point. If it is
30
Page 31
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
set at the top, it will lose its effect.
5. If the slowdown point is set to reduce the impact of load docking in the air, you must
ensure that the load is set at the slowdown point before the docking point and the slowdown
point must be at least 10 cm away from the docking point.
6. The soft limit configuration has a separate reset function. In the corresponding function
interface, click the “UP” button to select “invalid” and then press the exit button “ESC” and
the separate reset is done.
7. Soft limit is configured with “Reset soft limit” menu, select reset, all soft limit resets are “invalid”.
8. The deceleration speed in soft limit is 1.8 m/min.
4.7 Inching button operation
Only the qualified personnel can use the inching button when changing steel wire ropes.
Effective use of inching button must require the equipment to be normally energized. The inching
button may be used as follows:
1. Press the button A (self-locking), buttons B, C (Fig. 4 3) and then the operation works.
2. Pressing the upward inching button B (self-recovery) will start the motor and cause the
system to roll the wire rope onto the drum.
3. Pressing the downward inching button C (self-recovery) will start the motor and cause
the system to roll the wire rope down from the drum.
Note:
When the wire rope is replaced, the wire rope must always be perpendicular to the wire rope
jacket mouth whether it is rolled in or rolled out.
When the wire rope is replaced, the wire rope must be under tension (greater than 50N).
For detailed steps, please see the “Instructions on Wire Rope Replacement” and the
video named “Replacement Of Steel Wire Ropes” for reference.

4.8 Function switch
The equipment lifting control module is switched among the three modes of “locking mode”,
“mode of manual hold”, and “suspension (suspension unloading, and unloading) mode” (Fig. 4 4),
each state responds to external signals and makes different controls.
Under the following several conditions the “mode of manual hold” may be switched to
“locking mode”.
1. Holding the infrared sensor without signal.
2. The IR sensor has a signal when held manually, but the handle position sensor is zero
and the time exceeds the manual timeout setting.
Under the following several conditions the “locking mode” may be switched to “mode of
manual hold”.
1. When there is no alarm, the infrared sensor is held from no signal to having a signal.
From “suspension (suspension unloading, unloading) mode” to “locking mode”
1. No operation suspension mode shall exceed the set value.
2. The manual moving load speed exceeds the maximum suspension speed by 90%
(over-speed).
Under the following several conditions the “locking mode” may be switched to
automatic homing function, anti-drop function, stacking function
The extended function needs to configure the IO port that the expansion port needs, and input
(output) the required signal through the configured IO port in order to use normally. The extended
port provided by Henghui Intelligent Lifting Equipment includes the following types: Main
machine extended port, handle extended port and external extended module. The user may select
the suitable extended port according to actual conditions.
The extended port IO required for the extended function can be configured by the user. All
extended ports IO ports of Henghui Intelligent Lifting Equipment have the respective and sole
number, easy to be set by user. (No. 0 is invalid for setting IO)
5.1 Inching function
By controlling the IO signal of the extension interface, the equipment can run at four constant
speeds: slow gear upwards, slow gear downwards, fast gear upwards and fast gear downwards. In
the “lifting speed adjustment” → “setting of inching speed”, the speed of the fast/slow gear can
be set by “inching fast gear” and “inching slow gear”.
5.1.1 Usage mode
The control signals of the fast/slow gears can be input through interfaces on the host
extension board, handle extension board, or expansion board. In the "Expansion Function Setting"
→"Expansion Interface Setting", the corresponding IO numbers for "Slow Gear Upwards", "Slow
Gear Downwards", "Fast Gear Upwards" and "Fast Gear Downwards" can be set.
For example: Set the 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th pins on the extension interface of the coaxial
handle as the inputs of "Slow Gear Upwards", "Slow Gear Downwards", "Fast Gear Upwards" and
"Fast Gear Downwards". Connect the 9th pin and the 6th pin on the handle extension interface to
the normally open contacts of Switch K1 (self-recovery), and then set the IO number to 12 in the
"Slow Gear Upwards" menu. Connect the 10th pin and the 6th pin to the normally open contacts of
Switch K2 (self-recovery), and then set the IO number to 13 in the "Slow Gear Downwards" menu.
Connect the 11th pin and the 6th pin to the normally open contacts of Switch K3 (self-recovery),
then set the IO number to 14 in the "Fast Gear Upwards" menu. Connect the 12th pin and the 6th
pin to the normally open contacts of Switch K4 (self-recovery), and then set the IO number to 15
in the "Fast Gear Downwards" menu. When the contacts of Switch K1 are connected, the
33
Page 34
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
equipment will run at a "Slow Gear Upwards" speed, and when the contacts of Switch K1 are
disconnected, the equipment will stop. When the contacts of Switch K2 are connected, the
equipment will run at a "Slow Gear Downwards" speed, and when contacts of Switch K2 are
disconnected, the equipment will stop. When the contacts of Switch K3 are connected, the
equipment will run at a "Fast Gear Upwards" speed, and when contacts of Switch K4 are
disconnected, the equipment will stop. When the contacts of Switch K2 are connected, the
equipment will run at a "Fast Gear Downwards" speed, and when contacts of Switch K2 are
disconnected, the equipment will stop.
5.1.2 Fast gear and slow gear speed adjustment
The fast/slow gear speeds can be divided into 10 levels: the speed of each level is the level
number multiplied with 10% maximum speed. The user can set the fast/slow gear speeds through
the inching speed setting in the menu, by the following operations:
1. When the main interface displays “locking mode” (or “emergency stop mode”), click
“ENT” button to enter the main menu;
2. Select “lifting speed setting” with UP/DOWN, and click “ENT” button to enter its
menu;
3. Select “inching speed setting” →“fast gear setting” or “slow gear setting”, and select
the desired speed level with UP/DOWN, and click “ENT” button for confirmation; and
4. Press the “ESC” button to exit the main interface, and complete the setting of fast/slow
gear speed.
5.2 Switching of modes
When in a “locking mode”, the equipment can switch from the “locking mode” to the
“suspension mode”, or to “suspension unloading mode”, or to “unloading mode”. When the mode
is switched, select “open” in “suspension setting” → “suspension function switch”.
5.2.1 Usage mode
The control signal for the mode switching can be input by the host extension, handle
extension, or expansion board input port. Set the corresponding IO numbers in “Extended
Function Setting” → “Extended Port Setting” → “Switch Double Limit”.
For example: take the 9th, 10th and 11th pins on the extension interfaces of the coaxial handle
as the inputs for the switching from the “locking mode” to the “suspension mode”, the switching
from the “locking mode” to the “suspension unloading mode”, and the switching from the
“locking mode” to the “unloading mode” respectively. Connect the 9th pin and the 6th pin on the
34
Page 35
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
extension interfaces of the handle to the normally-open contacts of Switch K1 (self-recovery), and
set the IO number to 12 in the “switch to suspension mode” menu. Connect the 10th pin and the 6th
pin on the extension interfaces of the handle to the normally-open contacts of Switch K2
(self-recovery), and set the IO number to 13 in the “switch to suspension unloading mode” menu.
Connect the 11th pin and the 6th pin on the extension interfaces of the handle to the normally-open
contacts of Switch K3 (self-recovery), and set the IO number to 15 in the “switch to unloading
mode” menu. When the contacts of the inching switch K1 is connected in a “locking mode”, the
equipment switches from the “locking mode” to the “suspension mode”. When the contacts of the
inching switch K2 is connected in a “locking mode”, the equipment switches from the “locking
mode” to the “suspension unloading mode”. When the contacts of the inching switch K3 is
connected in a “locking mode”, the equipment switches from the “locking mode” to the
“unloading mode”.
5.3 Double limit function
The equipment only uses the setting parameters in the soft limit 1 by default. By configuring
the IO signal of the extended port, the system can use the setting parameters in the soft limit 1 or
soft limit 2. By controlling the input of the extended port IO signal, the user can easily implement
the switching between the soft limit 1 or 2 of the lifting equipment, which is suitable for the user’s
changing requirements for soft limit in the application.
5.3.1 Usage Method
The switching double limit signal can be input by the host extension, handle extension, or
expansion board input port. Set the corresponding IO number in “Extended Function Settings” →
“Extended Port Settings” → “Switch Double Limits”.
For example: Take the 11th pin of the handle extension interface as the double limit signal
input. Connect the 11th and 6th pins of the handle extension interface to the normally open contacts
of the (self-recovery) switch, and then set the IO number to 14 in “Switching Double Limits”.
When the switch contact is turned on, the soft limit used by the system is switched from soft limit
1 to soft limit 2. When the button is triggered again, the soft limit used by the system is switched
from soft limit 2 to soft limit 1. With the trigger of the button, the limit used by the system is
cyclically switched between soft limit 1 and soft limit.
Note:
The function and parameter setting method of soft limit 2 is the same as soft limit 1.
When double limits are used, the soft limit mode switch must be selected as the signal
switch!
35
Page 36
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
5.4 Double suspension function
The double suspension function allows the equipment to remain in the suspension mode at all
times, and realizes the suspension load switching between the fixture weight and fixture + work
piece weight, and is particularly suitable for the positional installation of the work piece in the
suspended state. The switching operation between the double suspension functions shall set the IO
signal of the extended function, and shall access the switch or sensor according to different
working modes.
The implementation of the double suspension function requires that the system presets the
load weights in two kinds of suspended states, and then set different extended IO signals
according to the selected double suspension mode.
Note:
Regardless of the mode in which double suspension works, the equipment load must
meet the following conditions: If |Load weight - (any) pre-set the weight value| <= (operating
force - 0.5), it can normally start and enter into the double suspended state!
Double suspension is divided into fixture suspension and fixture work piece suspension.
5.4.1 Double suspension weight setting
① Perform submenus for “Extended Function Setting” → “Double Suspension Setting”;
② From the double suspension setup menu, enter the “fixture weight” submenu. When the
equipment hangs the fixture and remains stable, click “ENT” button to record the weight
of the fixture (the maximum fixture weight can be set to 60KG);
③Same as the previous step, in the “fixture work piece weight”, the jig work piece is
suspended and remains stable, and the “fixture work piece weight” is recorded; click
“ESC” button to return to the previous menu.
5.4.2 Double suspension mode setting
The double suspension function enters the double suspended state mode according to the
entering equipment, and is divided into two types: automatic and manual.
Enter “extended function setting” → “double suspension setting” → “double suspension
mode” submenu in the handle to complete the selection of double suspension mode.
In the automatic mode, the detection time must be set first. When the load weight of the
equipment (fixture or fixture work piece) is in the weight range required to enter the double
suspension mode, and when the accumulated time reaches the set detection time, then the
equipment automatically enters the double suspension mode.
In the manual mode, the equipment must be manually operated to enter the double suspension
mode. According to the set signal selection, the user shall hold the button signal for about 2
36
Page 37
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
seconds to enter the double suspended state.
5.4.3 Signal selection
The two suspended states in the double suspension function are controlled by the configured
signal. Henghui Intelligent Lifting Equipment provides the following three switching signals:
Single signal, dual signal and fixture signal.
Single signal and dual signal are generally triggered manually by the operator to switch
between two suspended states. The fixture signal then switches the suspended state by the
clamping and releasing feedback sensor (switch) mounted on the fixture. Automatic switching of
double suspended state can be achieved if the fixture signal is used.
5.4.3.1 Single (Dual) signal setting
① In the “Extended Function Setting” → “Double Suspension Setting” → “Signal
Selection”, set the switching signal type, and select “Single Signal” or “Dual Signal” for
manual switching as required.
②According to the selected switching signal type and the actual wiring in the host
expansion, handle extension or expansion board input port. If using “single signal”
switching, you need to set the corresponding IO number in “Extended Function
Settings”, “Extended Port Settings”, and “Switching Double Suspension 1”; if using
“Dual Signal” switching, you need to set “Switching Double Suspension 1” and
“Switching Double Suspension 2” IO number, simultaneously.
For example: Take the Pin 11 and Pin 12 of the coaxial handle extended port as the
double suspension startup signal input end. Connect the Pin 11 and Pin 6 of the handle
extended port to the normally open contacts of the switch K1 (self-recovery), and then
set the IO number 12 in “switching double suspension 1”. Connect the Pin 12 and Pin 6
of the handle extended port to the normally open contacts of the switch K2
(self-recovery), and then set the IO number 13 in “switching double suspension 2”.
③When the set signal selects “single signal”, it is necessary to press and hold (about 2s)
the switch K1 when entering double suspended state. When switching the double
suspended state, only the switch K1 needs to be triggered; if the set signal selects “dual signal”, press the switch K1 when entering the double suspension mode, and then press
and hold (about 2s) the switch K2. When switching the double suspended state, you
need to press the switch K1 first, and then trigger the switch K2 to switch normally.
“Dual signal” can increase the security of the operation.
5.4.3.2 Fixture signal setting
When the double suspension is switched using the fixture signal, if in the manual mode, the
system must set three (3) IO input signals, which are: switching double suspension 1, clamping
37
Page 38
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
signal feedback and release signal feedback. In the automatic mode, the system must set two (2)
IO input signals, which are: clamping signal feedback and release signal feedback.
Signal setting method:
①The dual suspension signal can be input through host expansion, handle expansion or
expansion board input interfaces. Corresponding IO number can be set through
“expansion function setup”, “extension interface setup” → “ switching dual
suspension 1”.
For example: The Pin 9 of coaxial handle extension interfaces should be used as the
activating signal input end of dual suspension. Connect Pin 9 and 6 of the handle
extension interface to the normally open contacts of the (self-healing) switch, and then
set the IO number to 12 in "Switch dual suspension 1".
②Set the corresponding IO number in "Extended Function Settings" → "Expansion
Interface Settings" → "Clamp Signal Feedback" and "Release Signal Feedback".
For example: Set the Pin 10 of the handle extension interface as the clamp signal
feedback input and Pin 11 as the release signal feedback input end. Connect the Pin 10
of the handle extension interface to the output interface of the clamp sensor (NPN) (or
connect the Pin 10 and Pin 6 to the normally open contact of the clamp switch) and
connect the Pin 11 to the output port of the release sensor (NPN) (or link Pin 10 and Pin
6 to the normally open contact of the release switch). Then set the IO No. to 13 in
“Clamp signal feedback” and 14 in “Release signal feedback”. When the clamping
action is completed, the clamp sensor outputs correspondingly (clamp switch closed);
when the clamp release action is completed, the release sensor output correspondingly
(the release switch closed).
Note:
When using the sensor, the sensor power supply must adopt the DC 24v power
supplied by the extension interface.
Signal instructions:
1. When setting single signal switching, you must set “Switch to Dual Suspension 1”;
when setting the dual signal, you need to set “Switch to Dual Suspension 1” and “Switch
to Dual Suspension 2” at the same time.
2. If manual mode is used for dual-suspension, the signal setting button needs to be pressed
for the first time (self-recovering) [single/double] for about 2 seconds to enter
dual-suspension mode, and the system will automatically enter the fixture work piece
suspension state or fixture suspension state according to the received clamp/release
feedback signal.
38
Page 39
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
3. If manual mode is used for dual-suspension, the system will automatically enter the
fixture work piece suspension state or fixture suspension state according to the received
clamp/release feedback signal.
4. When the system receives the clamping feedback signal, it automatically switches into
the fixture work piece suspension state.
5. When the system receives the releasing feedback signal, it automatically switches into
the fixture suspension state.
5.4.4 Protection settings for dual suspension
The dual suspension function can provide the position protection function, as the user can set
the function within the specific position range, and then the dual suspension switching can be
effective. After the setting is completed, the system is only allowed to be switched to "fixture work
piece” suspension when it is set between the “low seizing position” and the “high seizing position”,
and can be switched to “fixture” suspension when it is set between “low unload position” and
“high unload position”.
Setting method:
1. Enter the “Extended Function Settings” → “Dual Suspension Setting” → “Dual
Suspension Protection” → “Protection Switch” submenu, select “Open” and then click
“ENT” to return to the previous menu.
2. In the clamping station, set values for “low seizing position” and the “high seizing
position” in the “dual suspension protection” menu according to the actual situation.
3. Same as above, set values for the “high unloading position" and "low unloading
position" in the unloading position.
5.4.4.1 Functional instructions
1. The protection function is only valid for single (dual) signals, and the position protection
function is invalid when using the "fixture signal";
2. When dual-suspension protection is set, then the user is only allowed to switch to the
“fixture weight” suspension state when the load position is between “high unloading
position” and “low unloading position”; while the user is only allowed switch to the
“fixture work piece weight” suspension when the load position is between “high seizing
position” and “low seizing position”. For other positions, the user is not allowed to
perform the switching operation to suspension state.
5.5 Anti-drop function
The anti-drop function can prevent the user from accidentally pressing the clamp release
button during the movement of heavy objects, resulting in heavy objects falling and causing

damage to the equipment or personnel.
The anti-drop function controls the output signal by detecting the relationship between the
weight of the load and the set anti-drop threshold value (weight value) to achieve protection. If the
load weight value < anti-fall threshold value, then the output signal is 0V, and the coil is energized;
If the load weight value ≥ anti-fall threshold value, then the output signal is 24V, and the coil is
de-energized.
5.5.1 Anti-drop threshold setting
1. Enter the “Extended Function Setting” → “Anti-drop Setting” → “Anti-drop
Threshold Value” menu.
2. Set the anti-drop threshold weight by the “ENT” button; (generally, the set threshold
value is slightly larger than the weight of fixtures).
5.5.2 Signal setting
The control of anti-drop function system relies on setting IO signals: the release signal is
controlled by the handle extension interface or the extension interface on expansion board (the
host does not support the output signal temporarily); set the corresponding IO number in
“Extended Function Setting” > “Expansion Interface Setting”> “Release Signal Output”.
For example: The Pin 4 of the handle extension interface is used as the release signal output.
Link Pin 4 and Pin 1 to the outer coil KM1 (such as relay). In the “Release Signal Output”, set IO
number to 24. If the load weight value < anti-drop threshold value, then the coil KM1 has 24V
power supply; If the load weight value ≥ anti- drop threshold value, then the coil KM1 loses
power.
5.5.3 Clamping protection function
The anti-drop function may be added with the clamping feedback signal and release signal
input to ensure that the device is completely clamping before lifting. If the system has received the
clamping signal feedback, the device can run upwards as well as downwards. If the system fails to
receive the clamping signal feedback and the release input signal, the device cannot run upwards
but may downwards. When the system fails to receive the clamping signal feedback, but has
received the release input signal, if the current load weight value < anti-drop threshold value, then
the device can run upwards but cannot downwards; if the current load weight value ≥ anti- drop
threshold value, then the device cannot run upwards but may downwards.

Note:
The release signal input connects to the normally closed pins of release buttons.
When the above operations fail, a warm like “Abnormal Clamping Signal” would be
displayed on the screen.
The anti-dropping function may not employ the clamping signal feedback and release signal
input, in such cases, the IO number of the corresponding menu in the extension interface setting
shall be set to 0.
5.5.3.1 Signal setting:
①The control of anti-drop function system (added with clamping protection function)
relies on setting IO signals: Clamping signal feedback and release signal input can be
conducted through the extension interface of the host, handle or expansion board; set the
corresponding IO No. in the “Extended Function Setting” → “Expansion Interface Setting”→“Clamping Signal Feedback” → “Release Signal Input”; the output signal
is controlled by the handle extension interface or the extension interface on expansion
board (the host does not support the output signal temporarily); set the corresponding IO
number in “Extended Function Settings” → "Expansion Interface Setting" → "Release
Signal Output".
For example: The Pin 9 of the handle extension interface is used as the clamping signal
feedback, while the Pin 10 is used as the release signal input, and Pin 4 as the release
signal output. Connect Pin 9 and Pin 6 of the handle extension interface to the normally
41
Page 42
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
open contact of the clamp feedback switch, and link Pin 10 and Pin 6 to the normally
closed contact of the release button, and link Pin 4 and Pin 1 to the outer coil KM1 (such
as relay). In the “Extended Interface Settings”, set IO number of the clamp signal
feedback to 12, release signal input to 13, and release signal output to 24.
Note:
The coil power output from the handle extension interface shall be no higher than 12W.
The output of the expansion board is output of the relay contact.
5.6 Auto homing function
This function allows the equipment to automatically return to the pre-set homing position at
the set homing speed by triggering the auto homing signal. To enable the automatic homing
function, the automatic homing load weight and homing speed must be set first. The device will
not automatically return to home poison or stop the homing motion if the device meets with
resistance (causing the load weight more than the pre-set 15KG) when the homing function is
activated or during its homing action.
Note:
Set the homing speed to 5 in “Lifting Speed Adjustment” → “Speed Setting” → “Homing
Speed Setting”.
5.6.1 Homing Weight Setting
1. Enter the “Extended Function Setting” →“Homing Setting” menu.
2. Enter the submenu of “Fixture Weight” from the menu of “Homing Setting”, and then press “ENT” button to record the homing weight (the maximum homing weight can be
set to 60KG) when the equipment is hung with the homing load and remains stable.
5.6.2 Usage method
Automatic homing signals can be input by the can be input through interfaces on the host
extension board, handle extension board, or expansion board. Set the corresponding IO number in
“Extended Function Setting” → “Expansion Interface Setting” → “Auto Homing”.
For example: Take Pin 11 of the handle extension interface as the auto homing signal input
terminal. Connect Pin 11 and Pin 6 of the handle extension interface to the normally open contacts
of the switch (self-recovery), and then set the IO number to 14 in “Switch to Double Limit”. When
the switch contact is open, the equipment returns to the homing position at the homing speed
5.7 Palletizing function
This function can realize the level-to-level precise stop of lifting equipment through the input
of palletizing signal. Before using this function, users need to set the layer height in advance, and
then the loads automatically stops running when the operating handle is moved up or down to the
42
Page 43
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
set position layer. If you need to continue to operate the equipment to the upper level or the lower
level, you need to operate the handle to the zero position2 first, and then conduct the up or down
movement to lift the equipment to the next layer, and which would automatically cease movement.
Operate the equipment in turn, so as to achieve precise stop of the equipment at each layer.
Note:
Spacing between adjacent stops must be greater than 20 mm.
5.7.1 Signal setting
The palletizing signal can be input through interfaces on the host extension board, handle
extension board, or expansion board. Set the corresponding IO number in “Extended Function
For example: Take Pin 11 of the coaxial handle extension interface as the palletizing signal
input terminal. Connect Pin 12 and Pin 6 of the handle extension interface to the normally open
contacts of the switch (self-locking/self-recovery), and then set the IO number to 12 in "Palletizing
Signal Input”; when the switch contact is on, the palletizing signal input has a signal, and the
palletizing function is valid; when the switch contact is open, the palletizing signal input has no
signal, and the palletizing function is invalid.
5.7.2 Operation steps
1. Turn on the input switch contact of the external palletizing signal; (The layer setting can
be completed first, then the signal settings to facilitate the layer height setting).
2. Enter the palletizing function setting → turn “On” the palletizing function switch;
3. The operating equipment is raised to the position of the required setting layer;
4. Click on the “ENT” button in the “Palletizing Function Setting” → “Layer 1” to save the
settings, with a maximum of 20 layers.
(Layer reset: Enter the layer number to be reset, and then press the "DOWN/UP" button
to switch the display to "Invalid" interface and press the "ESC" button to exit, which
means that the reset of the layer has been finished. You may also reset the entire layers
by setting menu of "Layer Height Reset")
5. When the operating handle moves up or down to the adjacent layer, it stops
automatically;
6. The operating handle is returned to the zero position and then moved up or down to the
next layer;
2
Zero position: When the coaxial slide handle (remote mounting slide handle) in the slide handle is not under force;
when the stepless shift handle is not pressing on the UP / DOWN keys;

5.9.3 External Expansion Board Interface
Intelligence aided lifting equipment provides extra external expansion board functions,
offering users more input/output interfaces. Each lifting equipment can at most match two
expansion boards. Each expansion board can provides extra 4-way input and 4-way output. The
extra 4-way output each expansion board provides is relay-type and can at most tolerate 1A of
electric current. The handle input end of expansion board 1 connects with the handle extension
interface and expansion board 2 directly connects with expansion board 1 through the extension
interface.
Some simple functions of PLC can also be achieved by expansion boards. See sections about
PLC expansion boards for details.
Prompt: The dial switch of expansion board 1 should be set as 1ON 2ON 3ON 4OFF
and the dial switch of expansion board 2 should be set as 1ON 2ON 3OFF 4ON, or these
expansion boards cannot work.
The expansion board has 1 handle input interface, 1 handle output interface, 1 extension
interface, 4 input interfaces and 4 output interfaces.
The handle input interface of each expansion board can be used as a connector between
expansion board and (coaxial/stepless) handle extension interface and can communicate through
50
Page 51
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
CAN bus. The handle output of expansion board is a IO port directly leading to the handle so the
IO number of the handle output end of expansion board 1 should be consistent with that of handle
extension interface.
Expansion board 2 can communicate with expansion board 1 only through the extension
interface and CAN bus. The handle input and output interfaces of expansion board 2 are all
invalid.

Setting of
suspension
Anti-rebound mode
Switch the anti-rebound testing mode between
over-speed and over-load.
Anti-rebound function: When the load weight of
equipment in the suspension mode reduces, it will be
avoided that the hook moves upwards and collides with
an object or push the equipment resulting in dropping
down of the load.
Detection of overspeed: When the operating speed of the
load reaches 90% of the maximum speed in the
suspension mode, the operation will stop, and LCD will
display “overspeed alarm”.
Detection of overload: If the operating force exerted on
the load by users exceeds the “Max. Over-power” (either
upper limit or lower limit), the operation will terminate,
and the LCD will show “overload alarm”. Other than the
over-speed testing, the equipment may operate at the
maximum speed in the suspension mode.
Default max. Over-power is 10KG.
Where the total lifting weight (such as tools and parts) is
less than the maximum limit, the over-speed testing
should be made.
Over-power test is default.
Max. over-power
Set the maximum anti-rebound over-power (2-20 kg),
classified into upward over-power and downward
over-power.
Automatic
suspension
Enter into the automatic suspension mode.
Maximum speed
operating force
The force required to reach the maximum speed in the
suspension mode = maximum speed operating force +
operating over-power threshold value The setting range
is [3-10KG]. When the suspension function is in normal
state, the lower the value is set, the less force is required
to reach the maximum speed in the suspension mode.

Detection time
Time condition under which the entering into the
automatic suspension mode is made possible. When the
load meets the weighting condition, the system will
automatically enter into the suspension mode if the
continuous duration reaches the time period set before.
Detection weight
Weighting condition under which the entering into the
automatic suspension mode is made possible. When the
current weight value meets (set value of detection weight
- operating over-power threshold value + 0.5KG <
current weight value < set value of detection weight +
operating over-power threshold value), the system will
begin timekeeping with regards to the “detection time”.
(Give no more than 10 sets of detection weight range)
Setting of
overload
Overload threshold
value
Set an overload threshold value. When the weight value
of the load exceeds the set overload threshold value, the
system will raise an “overload alarm”, during which
period of time, the equipment is unable to lift the load
upwards, but can lower it. The setting range is
[10KG-110% of rated loading capacity]
The load weight which causes the system to enter into
“overload alarm” >= overload threshold value +
operating over-power threshold value.
When the system enters into the “overload alarm”
condition:
If the load weight value < (overload threshold value +
operating over-power threshold value) * 150%, then the
equipment can run downward but cannot run upward.
If the load weight value ≥ (overload threshold value +
operating over-power threshold value) * 150%, then the
58
Page 59
Intelligence Aided Lifting Equipment
equipment cannot run.
Operating
over-power
threshold value
For system, pushing or pulling force of operator is an
extra load. This menu sets a limit value of operating
overload for users to reduce the possibility of
error-reporting detection of overload. The limit value
shall not be too big, and otherwise it will reduce the
overload detection capability. The operating over-power
threshold value is between 2 and 11KG.
Overload
sensitivity
Attention! The test on the varied weight may go wrong
due to the overload as thought. (Example: In the system,
lifting imbalanced or slender tools will easily cause
swing, or excessive vibration will be induced if not using
rigid support structure. When the load in operation does
not reach the limit value of overload, adjust the
sensitivity parameters to reduce protective error
detection. However, in actual application, if not
necessary, there is no need to reduce the sensitivity. Low
sensitivity extends the time taken to test normal
overloads, which can easily cause the damage to
equipment or report errors.
The detection sensitivity is between 1 (low) and 5 (high).
