1.0 Warrior HHMS-9XW08 Transmitter
The Warrior HHMS-9XW08 transmitter is a compact transmitter that interfaces with all Warrior
receivers. The HHMS-9XW08 has two standard green pushbuttons on the unit’s back side and
eight multi-step actuators on its front. These eight actuators are performance-rated at 2.3 lbf
(10.23 N) for more than two million operations and available in three different configurations:
2-Step: Dual redundant button, where the first and second steps are redundant.
3-Step: Features a redundant first step and distinctive second and third steps.
Any-Step: Offers a “rumble” of seven steps for analog output and applications greater than
three steps.
The transmitter’s vented enclosure is made of a high-impact polymer, designed to meet an
ingress protection rating of “IP50”according to International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
standard 60529. The unit has four diagnostic LEDs that indicate radio frequency (RF)
transmit/receive, Battery status, A selection, and B selection, as well as four numbered
configurable Auxiliary function LEDs. It also features an organic LED (OLED) display that
indicates battery life, RF signal strength and RF link status.
Frequency Channel Hopping Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (CH DSSS) wireless
technology (at 900MHz @ 100mW) allows HHMS-9XW08 transmitters to create a robust link
with MU-9X6E Warrior receivers in congested radio environments. These transmitters feature
seamless association to receivers without having to open a machine-mounted receiver.
Handheld remote applications include overhead crane control –such as two-motion/two-speed,
where it can include A/B transfer. The transmitter deactivates immediately following a high g-
force event. Auto-Shutdown is also available through an inactivity timer. Both features are
configurable.

Appendix A: Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Warrior transmitters and machine units contain radio transceivers. When active, a transmitter
sends out radio frequency (RF) energy through its internal antenna. Warrior transmitters and
receivers comply with limits set by the United States Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) for operating distance from human tissue.
Appendix B: RF Exposure Considerations
The radio module may be used in a variety of host applications falling into two general
categories:
1. Mobile applications: Any operating locations where the transmitting equipment is not on
a human body. In mobile applications, the host application is typically fixed to mobile
equipment, with either an internal or external antenna.
2. Portable applications: Any operating locations where the transmitting equipment is
located on the hand, arm, or other part of the human body. In portable applications, the
equipment is either held in the hands of an operator or affixed to either a belt or harness
on the torso.
Equipment containing the radio module was evaluated for RF exposure hazards by two
approaches:
1. Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) for mobile applications.
2. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) for portable applications.
Required separation distances are measured from the actual location of the radiating part of the
antenna. An antenna may be inside the host application, affixed to the host application
enclosure, or at the end of an optional extension coaxial cable.
Mobile Applications
Equipment must be located at least 20cm away from areas likely to be occupied by an unaware
person.
Transmitter Applications
All operators of transmitter equipment with any type of antenna require proper equipment
operation training, and such training must include RF exposure safety instructions. They are
then considered to be “aware”persons once training is completed.
If the portable operating position is on the hand or arm, a 5mm separation is required between
the radiating part of the antenna and nearby human tissue.
Required Training
All installers and operators of host applications that include an SRF310 FT module must be
trained to use proper RF safety precautions as presented in this Appendix.
