Superwh I28CT User Manual
CERTUS WIRELESS REMOTE SYSTEM – INDUSTRIAL VERSION
Please read the manual thoroughly before installing or using the radio remote control. e customer must fully understand this manual. If
there are questions or concerns, please contact the company delivering the unit or the manufacturer. e radio remote unit is only allowed
for use in products whose use oers no danger for person or property if there is an interruption in transmission or receiving of the signal.
Additionally, there should be a manual emergency stop which is able to shut down the entire unit of machinery apart from the radio remote
stop. It is not allowed to use a radio remote control with machinery which could be subject to heightened accident risk. e manufacturer
cannot judge whether the proper procedure has been followed with the installation of the remote unit. Improper installation or improper
use of the remote unit by the user could result in injury or destruction of property. For that reason, the manufacturer cannot be responsible
for personal injury, property damage or loss of any time resulting from either improper installation, improper use or wrong use of the
product. Likewise, the manufacturer assumes no liability for damages resulting from improper maintenance. e manual should be kept
within easy reach and should be given to the next owner in case of a sale.
General Information
e system operates on a frequency of FM 869.85 MHZ (EU) or FM 914.5 (US) and utilizes frequency modulation
generally known as FM technology. While an FM signal is much less susceptible to electrical interference than an
AM signal, there can never be total protection against outside interference. Interference can result from the turning
on and o of electronic equipment and stronger interference can come from proximity to relay stations, industrial
equipment and types of computer equipment. Another interference factor could be the close proximity of strong
electric motors. e above factors should be considered when installing the wireless system. Also, the greatest range
will be achieved if the receiver is not enclosed in metal.

1.1 Safety of this radio remote control
is wireless system is equipped with electronic safety devices
THE FOLLOWING IS IMPORTANT FOR YOUR SAFETY
Misuse or abuse of this equipment could result in injury to the user or others and/or
damage to property.
Everyone who uses this equipment must:
– Be qualied to use the machinery and have been introduced to the
wireless system
– Follow exactly the safety rules
– Have read the manual with care
Safety Factors
1) e product may only be installed, maintained and used by trained professionals.
Repairs must be done by Superwinch.
2) Never leave the transmitter unattended.
3) e transmitter is only to be used within the conners of the working space and
this space is to be clearly dened.
4) Using more than one transmitter for one receiver box is not allowed. If you own
or purchase a backup transmitter it is important to note: improperly stowing a
second transmitter is a security risk. When the system is rst put into use, the
backup unit should be tested then have it’s battery removed and the unit should
be stored in a secure place. If these safety regulations are not followed closely, the
machine could be set in motion by a non-professional by accident and this could
result in serious injury or death.
5) Both the transmitter housing and buttons should be checked on a daily basis and,
if damage is present, the transmitter should be taken out of use.
6) Also, the battery level must be checked daily. If the battery level is too low and
LED light 2 on the transmitter is ashing, then the battery should be changed.
7) e stop button should be checked before each shi to see if the signal is reaching
the receiver.
8) In an emergency situation, pressing the red emergency stop button should
immediately activate the stop relay in the receiver and the electrical current to the
machine should be cut.
1.6 Safety Features
e machine will be brought to a stop if:
– the red stop button is activated
– the operating range is exceeded
– system encounters the same frequency from an outside source
– ve minutes go by since the last transmission
ese safety features are engineered into the system to protect personnel and
equipment and should never be changed, taken out or bypassed.
1.7 Emergency Procedure
If an emergency situation arises immediately press the emergency stop button (red)
on the transmitter. en follow the procedures as outlined in the manual for the
machinery being used.

2.1.3 Encoding the system
Before using the wireless system for the rst time or aer installation, the transmitter
must be matched to the receiver. To do this open the back of the transmitter by way of
the 4 small screws under the rubber protective cover. (see Illustration 4 Opening the
transmitter). Aer removing the back cover, you can see an 8 position code bank directly
above the battery. (see Illustration 3 A & B). Set your personal code, which must be the
same for the transmitter and for the receiver.
Illustration 3A Illustration 3B
Encoding must occur prior to connecting the receiver to the source of electricity.
2.1.4 Optical signals on the transmitter
e transmitter has 2 LED lights. (Illustration 1) LED 1 lights up when one of the buttons
is depressed. is signal shows the transmitter is sending a signal to the receiver. LED 2
shows the status of the battery. As long as this light does not go on when the transmitter is
being used, the battery has enough energy to work correctly. As soon as this light goes on
during operation, however, the battery must be changed immediately as further operation
of the unit cannot be guaranteed and injury to person or property might result.
