!
Operation!
!
To!switch!on!the!Remote!press!and!hold!down!both!buttons!for!2!seconds.!The!
green!led!will!light!up!indicating!that!the!remote!is!now!‘awake’.!
!
Release!both!buttons!and!the!green!led!will!go!out!and!the!Remote!is!ready!for!
use.!
!
The!Remote!switches!itself!off!after!10!minutes!of!inactivity.!
!
The!2!second!‘switch!on’!routine!is!a!deliberate!safety!measure!to!prevent!
unintentional!operation!of!the!windlass!
!
In!normal!operation!the!green!led!is!on!continuously!while!a!button!is!pressed.!
If!the!green!led!flickers!this!indicates!poor!communication!with!the!Receiver.!
!
SAFETY!
!
Great!care!should!be!taken!with!the!windlass!operation!to!ensure!that!
anyone!on!the!foredeck!is!well!clear!of!the!anchor!chain!and!windlass!
mechanism!when!the!windlass!is!operated.!
!
Anyone!using!the!Remote!away!from!the!foredeck!must!ensure!that!all!
foredeck!crew!are!safe.!
!
Special!Functions!
!
For!normal!operation!no!additional!commands!are!required!to!operate!the!
system,!however!spare!Remotes!can!be!added!to!the!system!and!these!are!
programmed!with!the!same!Receiver!ID!code.!See!‘Special!Functions’!towards!
the!end!of!this!manual.!
Batteries!
The!Remote!uses!3!x!AAA!1.5v!Lithium!Iron!batteries!(Energizer!Ultimate!
Lithium).!These!are!non-!rechargeable.!We!strongly!recommend!that!only!this!
battery!type!be!used,!as!they!do!not!leak.!!They!have!a!shelf!life!in!excess!of!20!
years!and!operate!from!-40°C!to!60°C.!
The!supplied!batteries!have!sufficient!capacity!to!allow!for!5!minutes!of!
windlass!operation!every!day!for!2!years.!As!such,!most!recreational!users!are!
unlikely!to!ever!need!to!replace!the!batteries.!
!
Low!Battery!Indication!
If!the!batteries!are!getting!low!the!red!led!in!the!Battery!Indicator!window!will!
come!on.!The!Remote!will!continue!to!function!for!a!considerable!period!but!
the!batteries!should!be!replaced!as!soon!as!is!convenient.!
!
Battery!Replacement!
To!replace!the!batteries,!remove!the!back!panel!(2!screws)!and!carefully!lever!
them!out.!The!battery!connections!are!very!firm!and!we!recommend!inserting!
the!negative!(non-dimple)!end!first!and!then!pushing!the!battery!towards!the!
negative!end!and!then!down.!Do!NOT!bend!back!the!battery!connection!arms!
or!they!may!be!permanently!damaged.!

Receiver!
Operation!
Each!Receiver!has!a!unique!ID!code!that!is!factory!programmed.!Additional!
Remotes!can!be!supplied,!however!only!one!Remote!should!be!used!at!a!time.!
The!Receiver!can!be!connected!to!work!in!parallel!with!foot!switches,!cockpit!
controls!or!cabled!remotes.!
The!Receiver!detects!if!the!windlass!is!already!under!external!control!to!avoid!
conflict!situations.!
!
Power!Connections!
The!Receiver!is!powered!from!the!boat’s!battery,!and!versions!are!available!for!
12v!and!24v!operation.!
The!positive!connection!should!be!taken!to!the!fused!side!of!the!windlass!
supply!(see!wiring!diagrams).!
Black! ! -!connect!to!the!boat’s!0v!supply!
Red! ! -!connect!to!the!boat’s!+12v!or!+24v!supply!
Yellow!! -!outputs!+12v!or!+24v!when!the!‘Up’!button!is!pressed!!
Blue! ! -!outputs!+12v!or!+24v!when!the!‘Down’!button!is!pressed!
!
Internal!Fuse!
The!receiver!is!fused!internally!with!a!10amp!20mm!anti-surge!fuse.!
!
**Note!
Although!highly!rated,!the!relay!switches!inside!the!Receiver!have!a!10amp!
maximum!capacity!and!should!not!be!directly!connected!to!the!windlass!itself.!
!
!
Location!and!Mounting!
The!Receiver!can!be!mounted!anywhere!on!the!boat.!Normally!it!is!convenient!
to!mount!it!in!the!chain!locker!where!it!is!close!to!the!windlass!and!windlass!
control!box!(solenoid).!
The!Receiver!should!be!mounted!with!the!cable!gland!pointing!downwards.!
Ideally!mount!the!receiver!above!the!waterline!and!as!high!as!possible.!
!
!
!
!
The!mounting!holes!for!the!Receiver!enclosure!can!be!accessed!by!opening!
the!lid.!!
To!open!the!Receiver!lid!insert!a!small!(3.5mm)!flat!bladed!screwdriver!in!
the!slot!as!shown!and!pivot!the!screwdriver!to!the!right.!
