5- Installation and recommendations
Experience shows that the functional efficiency of the system basically depends on the quality of the
installation:
- Interference suppression,
- Choice of operating frequency,
- Movement control arrows,
- Position of receiver and antenna,
- Quality of wiring of receiver and associated systems,
- Electrical power supply protection,
- Minimum and maximum current of relay outputs.
5.1- Interference suppression
In the event of inductive loads on the relay outputs (contactor coils, solenoid valves or electro-brakes),
interference suppression devices such as capacitors, RC circuits, diodes, etc. must be placed directly
at the terminals of the controlled components using the shortest possible connections.
5.2- Choice of operating frequency
The 64 radio channels of the UR provide a broad range of choices among the available frequencies. To
ensure good operating quality, it is important that the radio channel used, the previous and following be
free throughout the area in which the machine will be controlled.
If several radio remote controls are operating on the same site, frequencies spaced by at least two
channels (for example: 5, 7, 9 ...) should be used and, if necessary, a frequency plan should be drawn
up, specifying the various machines controlled and their working frequency.
5.3- Movement control arrows
If there are several equipment fitted with similar radio remote control systems working in the same
neighbourhood (e.g. in a plant), each transmitter shall carry a clear indication which tells the equipment
driver which equipment is controlled by the transmitter in question.
In this respect, signalling arrows are available as an accessory.
Place the different arrows on the equipment to be controlled so that each arrow colour corresponds to
that on the associated transmitter control button.
The direction of movement of control buttons shall whenever possible be consistent with equipment
motion. Symbols shall be fixed in such positions that there is a clear and unambiguous relationship
between the action on buttons in the control station and the corresponding direction of motion.
The arrows are available in the following versions :
