Presentation
The Harmony eXLhoist range of wireless remote control systems provides complete
innovative crane operator control solutions to help improve machine and crane operator
efficiency, protect people and equipment, and reduce installation and maintenance
downtime.
The XARS remote control system is a combination of remote control device (or
transmitter: XART) and base station (or receiver: XARB), which transmits commands
and information from the operator to the machine and vice versa by wireless
transmission.
The XARS system offers movement in 3 directions (for example: hoist, bridge, and
trolley) at 2 speeds (low and high) for each movement.
The 2 modes available in the system are:
•
Single mode: The remote control device controls one base station.
•
MBC mode[1]: The remote control device controls 2 base stations simultaneously.
Radio Communication
Each base station has a unique identification code
[2] managed by Schneider Electric.
The radio communication frequency is 2.4 GHz and automatic frequency hopping allows
up to 50 systems to run at the same time in a 100 x 100 m/328 x 328 ft area.
eXLhoist Configuration Software
Free software with a graphic user interface can be downloaded by the customer to
configure the remote control station. This software has a standard Windows
