Radio System
3.2 Special Operating Modes (Optional)
This chapter describes special operating modes that are not available with all crane
systems.
If your radio control system is not equipped with the features described, you may ignore
the following and continue with the next chapter.
3.2.1 Pitch – Catch
The "Pitch – Catch" operating mode
allows two or more crane operators
equipped with one transmitter each to
independently use the same crane.
The crane is equipped with a radio
receiver that can receive and monitor
transmitter frequencies.
After activating the receiver all
transmitters have equal access to the
control system.
Releasing the crane ("Pitch")
To release the crane :
1. Turn rotary switch (pos. Á) on
transmitter 1 or transmitter 2 to the
"Pitch" position.
2. For safety reasons we recommend switching OFF
transmitter 1 or transmitter 2 (pos. À). This will avoid
operator errors.
The respective transmitter 1 or transmitter 2 now has no
access to the crane control system.
Taking over control of the crane ("Catch")
To take over the control of the crane turn the rotary
switch (pos. Á) on transmitter 1 or transmitter 2 to the
"Catch" position.
The transmitter with control over the crane retains the
access to the receiver (transmitter 1 or transmitter 2) until
the operator has issued the "Pitch" statement.
Example :
Transmitter 2 has control over the crane control system.
Transmitter 1 is to be given control. The operators must
continue as follows :
1. Turn rotary switch (pos. Á) on transmitter 2 to the "Pitch" position.
2. For safety reasons deactivate transmitter 2, i.e. turn the key switch (pos. À) to the
"0 = OFF" position.
3. Activate transmitter 1, i.e. turn the key switch (pos. À) to the "1 = ON" position.
4. Turn the rotary switch (pos. Á) on transmitter 1 to the "Catch" position.
Transmitter 1 now has sole access to all crane functions.
