1 Scope
This manual is an appendix to the installation manual art.no: 959125-000 and cover the settings for Multi-
crane and Multi-operator Operation. The installation manual shall be read and understood.
Warning regarding installation and maintenance work see installation manual.
2 Use of warnings and notes in this manual
Read all safety instructions throughout this manual and on safety signs attached to this equipment.
The following safety alert symbols and signal words are used in this manual to inform the user of hazards.
!Indicates a condition which, if not avoided, could result in damage
to or poor functionality of the product.
3 Multi-crane and Multi-operator Operation
!Only for Era 100 (model 150, Era 100 Congurable/Customized if applicable) and Era 8B
set to 9 Buttons mode.
Multi-crane Operation
Multi-crane operation means that two cranes can be operated from the same transmitter, which
makes it easier, for example to lift two objects simultaneously or a big object using two cranes.
A data link is needed between the two cranes. This link shall full at least EN ISO 13849-1:2008
Performance Level c and category 2.
Multi-operator Operation
Multi-operator operation means that two transmitters can operate the same object. This can be
benecial, for example, when the view is blocked. The control of the object can be passed
between two transmitters. Active crane selection and deselection guarantees that only one trans-
mitter is in control of the object at a time.
4 Pairing of transmitter and receiver, multi-crane/multi-operator
Before pairing:
!Multi-crane only for Era 8B set to 9 Buttons and Era 100 (model 150 or similar).
!Set the region (“EU” or “Other”) and frequency channel before pairing!
!If multiple systems are used on the same site, carefull frequency planning is recommended.

4.2 Pairing Era 8B-9, Era 100
1. Open the lid on the receiver.
2. Power ON the receiver.
3. Set the dipswitch SW3:1 in position, see section 4.3.
4. Press the pairing button in the receiver.
5. Set the transmitter in pairing mode.
Era8B-9: Hold down bottom buttons when starting the transmitter.
Continue to press the buttons for ≈5 seconds.
Era100: Hold out one of the transmitter joysticks and start the transmitter.
Keep holding the joystick out and press ≈10s
6. See pairing indications. When paired reciever LED 5 shows steady green.
If this hasn’t been indicated within 15 seconds restart pairing.
7. Restart the system.
8. Repeat above steps for the next transmitter/receiver.
9. Set the dipswitch SW3 in the position it should stand in during operation,
see section 4.3.
10. Remount the receiver lid (2Nm).
The receiver has now learned the transmitter ID numbers and will only accept
commands from those transmitters. Enter pair mode
Enter pair mode Era 100

4.3 Multi-crane and Multi-operator Operation, settings
4.3.1 Multi-operator operation
2 transmitters and 1 receiver
In order to run multi-operator operation the receiver must be paired with two ID’s. First paired transmitter = transmitter 1.
1. Pair transmitter 1 to the receiver. Disconnect and reconnect the power source to the receiver.
2. Pair transmitter 2 to the receiver. Disconnect the power source to the receiver, set the SW3 in “during op-
eration” and reconnect the power source to the receiver.
