4.- INSTALLATION
4.1.- THE CB60 BATTERY CHARGER
The battery charger CB60 has two charging compartments that can simultaneously
charge battery types BT06, BT12, BT06K and BT08K.
Connect the charger to the mains
using the power source and cable
supplied. On installing the battery
charger, bear in mind that the
batteries must be charged at
temperatures over 32ºF (0ºC) and
that the power supply must be left on
all night. Also remember that the
charger must not be left in direct
sunlight, as the batteries will not
become fully charged at temperatures
exceeding 113ºF (45ºC).
Place the batteries in the charger.
The LED’s should light up, indicating that recharging is in process. Complete recharging
takes 12 hours, but the batteries may remain in the charger for an unlimited period of
time.
The capacity of the batteries decreases with use. Their life span is estimated to be 500
recharging cycles, but this depends largely on the conditions of use, for which the
following is recommended:
 Do not recharge the battery until it is completely flat. The transmitter indicates this.
 Always charge the batteries at temperatures between 32ºF and 113ºF (0º and
45ºC).
 Charge the batteries at least once every six months.
 Avoid short-circuits between the battery contacts. Do not carry charged batteries in
toolboxes or next to other metal objects (keys, coins, etc.).
 Always keep contacts clean.
 Never leave batteries in direct sunlight.
Only use Drivecon supplied batteries.
When the batteries are exhausted they can be disposed of or recycled
safely according to local standards.

4.2.- RECEIVER
Make sure that the crane is stopped for the entire duration of the
assembly process, keep the work area free and wear protective
clothing.
Park the crane and position stop-ends (if these are not available use
appropriate signs) at a suitable distance so that other cranes on the
same runway do not hit it.
Check the power-supply voltage and turn off the mains switch.
Remember that the receiver has several voltage-powered circuits. Even
when the power has been cut off, there is still a risk of electrical
shocks.
Find a suitable location for the receiver with easy access, in a place designated for
reception of the radio transmitter signal, and away from any intense radio electric
disturbance sources.
Install the receiver cabinet using 4 elastic absorbers.

Connect the power supply and the receiver outputs on the corresponding relay board
plug-in terminals. Do this following the outputs diagram, which is supplied with the set.
This diagram indicates the correspondence between the transmitter commands and the
receiver outputs.
The STOP relays KSTOP1 and KSTOP2 are in series and must be connected to the
main contactor coil circuit.
The K2/START and K12 relays are activated when the start-up command is held down.
Remember to connect the ground cable.
Only use fireproof cables for connections.
Select the appropriate voltage on the receiver, (230, 115 or 48 Vac)

4.3.- STARTING UP
Proceed with caution; the equipment may not be connected correctly
which may lead to unforeseeable movements on starting-up.
Once the receiver has been connected, disconnect the power supply to the motors, (for
example, by removing the fuses) and power on the receiver. With this, the receiver will
enter into a ‘SCANNING’ mode and the following LED’s will be lit in the receiver;
POWER: ON, indicates that the power supply is correct.
HARDOK: ON, indicates the absence of faults on the boards.
SIGNAL: OFF, in the case of the channels being signal free. Blinks ON when
there is a RF signal on the channels.
DATA: OFF, when there is not another TM70 system active in the area. Blinks
ON in the opposite case.
ID: OFF
Next, turn transmitter ON to OPERATION mode, as follows:

Place a charged battery in the transmitter.

Turn the contact key.

Push and pull out the STOP button, (LED flashes orange-green). If the transmitter
has LCD, it displays the identification of the machine, as well as the battery level.

Press the start button. The green LED should now light indicating that the
transmitter is transmitting.
1.- Label for crane identification.
2.- LED.
3.- Manoeuvre button.
4.- Contact key.
5.- Start button.
6.- STOP button.
7.-Option: Range Limitation.

On receiving a signal from the transmitter, the receiver enters in OPERATION mode; the
following LED’s will light up on the receiver:
POWER: ON, indicates that the power supply is correct.
HARDOK: ON, indicates that defects have not been detected on the board.
SIGNAL: ON, indicates that it is receiving a RF signal at the working frequency.
DATA: When ON indicates that the data received has a correct format.
ID: When ON indicates that the receiver has recognized the transmitter’s
identification code.
Now, the STOP relays KSTOP1 and KSTOP2 will be activated. The K2/START and
K12 relays are activated when the start button is pushed in.
Press on any of the transmitter’s manoeuvre buttons and its corresponding relay will be
activated.
Check to make sure all the other manoeuvres work in this way.
Turn off the transmitter using the STOP button, and make sure that on doing so the
relays are deactivated and the DATA, ID and SIGNAL LED’s go out. They behave
exactly as in ‘SCANNING’ mode.
Reconnect the power supply to the motors, move to the usual work position and check
to see if all the manoeuvres and the stop button are functioning correctly.
