INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Note 1: As the end use and positioning of the receiver unit can not necessarily be foreseen and the receiver may be
exposed to pressurised moisture in the form of waterblasting, road spray or similar the receiver should be mounted
inside a IP65 rated PDL style electrical enclosure or similar. Failure to mount the receiver unit in this manner may void
warranty of the system.
Note 2 : The power supply to the Apollo receiver unit must be fitted with an isolating switch for safety
APOLLO system installation should be a relatively straight forward procedure requiring a minimum of the following tools.
Long nose pliers, Side cutters, Philips head screwdriver, Multimeter and electric drill.
Steps:
(a) Ensure your existing machinery wiring is correct and fully operational prior to proceeding with a wireless system install.
(b) Ensure the receiver enclosure is mounted away from motors, relays, cables and high voltage wiring.
Preferably ensure the receiver mounting location is free of metal shielding / boxes or metal shielding protruding between your receiver
and the intended work area.
(c) Do not install an APOLLO system with the same channel transmitter within 50 meters of an existing system.

WIRING (NOT OUTPUT R LAYS AR RAT D TO A MAXIMUM OF 3 AMPS P R FUNCTION)
•All APOLLO receivers include a wiring diagram on the side of the receiver enclosure –your system may have spare wires
in the loom that are not used
•Wires in the receiver wiring loom will either be colour coded or numbered (larger systems) for ease of recognition.
•Output voltage will match the power source supplied to the receiver EG: if you power the receiver with a 12vdc power source the
output from the function wires will be 12vdc positive.
•unction outputs shown on the wiring diagram are labeled with letters which correspond to the letters / functions shown on the
transmitter schematic in this manual.
•All APOLLO receivers will have a master output labeled on the wiring diagram as “ ID1” you can read further about his output
under APOLLO programming on page four of this manual
Input Voltage
All APOLLO receivers are “multivolt” and will accept a DC supply voltage of between 9 – 30 VDC
CAUTION
nsure none of the APOLLO outputs are connected to a switch, solenoid or similar that exceeds a draw of 3 amps per function
OP RATING INSTRUCTIONS
How to turn on your APOLLO
To power up the system the following procedure applies.
1. Insert the transmitter power-on key under the green button and rotate the transmitter “ EMS stop button” in a clockwise direction
until it pops up. . The LED will flash red briefly and then start flashing green.
2. Rotate the “ EMS stop button” located on the receiver face in a clockwise direction until it pops up. The PWR LED should light up
4. Press and release any transmitter function button to start-up the APOLLO system
The “OP” LED should come on and remain on, indicating the system is in operation mode
How to turn off your APOLLO
1. Press the transmitter EMS-stop button” inwards (This will shut down the main contact in the receiver unit ).
2. Remove the transmitter power-on key from under the green button
3. Shut down the receiver by depressing the “ EMS stop button” located on the receiver face.
Push any function button once to
start up the APOLLO system once
the EMS buttons on the transmitter
and receiver are in the on position
and the power on key is inserted

APOLLO PROGRAMMING
The APOLLO systems in standard format come with all functions as momentary
EG: When a function button is depressed on the transmitter the corresponding function will output on the receiver only for as long as the
transmitter button remains depressed.
Latching functions and key interlocks can be programmed upon request, please contact your distributor for further information.
Master Output Functionality
The APOLLO systems also feature a master output, this output can be configured to provide an output when one or more of the transmitter
function buttons are active to your requirements. actory set to provide master output cross all functions when active. Master Output wire is
identified as “ID1” on the side of your receiver. To change factory setting please contact your distributor.
Auto Shut down
In standard format the APOLLO receiver and transmitter are not set to shutdown automatically.
TRANSMITT R AND R C IV R L D STATUS INDICATORS
Transmitter L D indicator
1. The APOLLO transmitter features a dual colour LED indicator. When first powered up the LED will flash
once /second, it’ll do this 7 times and then stop. When transmitting the LED will blink rapidly, stop transmission
and the LED will flash 7 times and then stop. The transmitter has no “Auto Off” function and will remain on until
the red mushroom switch is depressed.
2. When the LED is green the transmitter battery power is sufficient, if the LED turns to red this indicates low
power and batteries must be replaced. Please replace the batteries with 4pcs of AA/UM-3 ( 1.5V ) alkaline
batteries, or nickel rechargeable batteries immediately, or the transmitter will automatically shut down after 10
sec.
Receiver L D indicators (Status)
PWR = LED indicator is green when the receiver is connected to a power supply and has been turned on via
clockwise rotation of the receiver “ EMS “ button into an outward position
OP* = LED indicator is green when the Transmitter has been turned on and a transmitter function button
pressed to start the system – confirmation that the receiver is in operation mode and ready to receive
transmission
DATA = LED indicator generally glows solid when an authorized transmission is being received.
RF = LED blinks rapidly and randomly, showing that radio signals of any frequency are present
* OP LED, this is the most important indicator, it confirms the both the transmitter and receiver are on, communicating and ready for
operation

Receiver OUTPUT indicators
The APOLLO receiver also contains on the face panel, running horizontally across the top, four dual colour LEDs. These LEDs illuminate in
parallel with an individual function. They provide a clear indication of which functions are active and that a positive voltage output is present
on the corresponding wire.
(Note unctions 1 to 8 only (A to H) have LED indicators)
A/B indicator = Red if A function activated Green if B function activated
C/D indicator = Red if C function activated Green if D function activated
/F indicator = Red if E function activated Green if function activated
G/H indicator = Red if G function activated Green if H function activated
Precautions
Please read thoroughly the operation manual before using your APOLLO system.
Before operating the transmitter please check that the LED status indicator on the transmitter is indicating sufficient battery power is
available. If you are intending to not use the APOLLO transmitter for any length of time is recommended that the batteries be
removed.
TROUBL SHOOTING
If a malfunction occurs, please check your APOLLO system step by step as below, if the malfunction persists contact your distributor for
further assistance.
Transmitter
I : There is no confirmation flash from the transmitter LED status indicator when a function button is depressed
Check if the power-key has been inserted.
I : The power-key has been inserted, but still has no confirmation flash from the Transmitter LED status indicator when a function button is
depressed
Check if the EMS-stop push button has been depressed, if so, turn clockwise to upright /on position
I : The EMS-stop push button has been turned clockwise to the on position, the power-key is inserted, but there is still no confirmation
flash from the Transmitter LED status indicator
Check if the batteries have been inserted correctly
Receiver
I : The EMS-stop push button has been turned clockwise to the upright/on position but the “PWR “ led indicator on the receiver will not light
indicating the system is operational
Check your power supply to the receiver
I : The power supply to your receiver is live and the “PWR” indicators still does not light
Check if the internal receiver fuse has failed and renew with a fuse of the same rating the internal fuse is located inside the receiver
enclosure, you will need to loosen the wiring gland on the enclosure and then loosen the four enclosure screws to remove the front cover)
The fuse is an automotive blade type fuse and is located in plain view on the corner of the main printed circuit board
I : You have replaced the internal fuse, but the receiver continues to blow fuses.
There may be a problem with the receiver’s internal circuitry - Please contact your distributor.
