1. INTRODUCTION
This manual is a guide to the correct use of the range of ITOWA multi-frequency remote control sets.
These sets have been specially designed for the wireless remote control of all types of
electromechanical machinery.
FM frequency and FFSK codification are used for the radio transmission of control signals. The most
advanced technology and the latest generation microprocessors have been incorporated in the
electronic design. This means total safety when using the radio control.
To avoid unwanted manoeuvres, the system is provided with several safety mechanisms that are
described further on. Manoeuvres are immediately blocked if any anomalies are automatically
detected.
The system operates in the UHF band, in the frequencies between 433.050 and 434.775 MHz or
between 868.000 and 870.000 MHz as stipulated in the telecommunications legislation of the I-ETS
300 220.
Please ask ITOWA for other certifications.
GCFI VERSION
The GCFI (Intelligent Changing Frequency Management) has been designed to enable an intelligent
change of non-occupied frequency, always automatically and at random. This allows avoiding
interferences that can cause continuous problems during the equipments performance.
NOTA: ALL INFORMATION INCLUDED IN THIS MANUAL WITHREGARDS EITHER TO CHANGE
OF FREQUENCY OR TO WORKING CHANNEL IS NOT VALID FOR GCFI VERSIONS.
FULLY CHARGE THE BATTERIES BEFORE
USING THE EQUIPMENT FOR THE FIRST TIME

2. GENERAL RULES FOR THE CORRECT AND SAFE USE OF THE RADIO
CONTROL
For maximum safety when handling the radio control, the user must follow the rules described in this
manual.
Whenever the crane has to be manoeuvred, the radio control operator must be in a place where he
can view the whole manoeuvre being performed. If this is not possible, he should place himself where
he can see as much of the manoeuvre as possible, and coordinate with another person when he
cannot see properly. Never perform a manoeuvre which may be partially uncontrolled.
Do not leave the radio control transmitter on the ground or on metal blocks. If you must do so,
activate the emergency stop (STOP BUTTON) of the radio control and turn the key/switch to the OFF
position or lock the keyboard if it is activated (see the section Procedure to lock the keyboard).
At the end of the working day, or if the radio control operator has to leave the radio control, he should
activate the emergency stop (STOP BUTTON) of the radio control, turn the key or selector switch to
the OFF position, place the battery in the charger for recharging and turn off the crane.
Procedure to lock the keyboard
The equipment can have the option of the keyboard lock on the transmitter, by means of a system of
sequential lock/unlock of buttons. This system is similar to the one used to lock telephones.
To lock the keyboard press the start button 5 times in less than 3 seconds, with the STOP BUTTON
pressed. Both leds and will light up for 3 seconds.
To unlock the keyboard, repeat the same operation, that is, press the start button 5 times in less than
3 seconds, with the STOP BUTTON pressed. The operation will also be indicated in the same way,
that is, both leds and will light up for 3 seconds.
In case the start button is pressed while the keyboard is locked, both leds will blink alternatively.

3. DESCRIPTION OF THE SET
The remote controls of the SYNTHESIZED range are made up of the following elements:
●TRANSMITTER
●RECEIVER
●BATTERIES
●CHARGER
3.1. TRANSMITTER
This is a sealed push-button box (IP 65 protection) in highly resistant plastic material. The manoeuvre
push-buttons and display leds are in the front part. The housing for interchangeable batteries is
provided at the back.
As indicated the block diagram (Fig. 3.1), the transmitter consists of three parts: push-buttons,
control circuit and UHF transmitter.
The following diagram shows the GCFI transmitter.

CONTROL PARTS
CONTROL TRANSCEIVER
Fig. 3.1 Block diagram of the transmitter
Orders from the push buttons are picked up by the microprocessor, which draws up the FFSK signal
adding direction and control codes, and injects it to the UHF transmitter This transmitter incorporates
the signal of this order to the carrier frequency, which after filtering, will be transmitted by the
antenna.
In GCFI equipments, the transmitter becomes a transceiver. This enables a bidirectional
communication with the receiver.

3.1.2. WINNER TRANSMITTER
With regards to the other Itowa transmitters, this transmitter has more leds to indicate the different
status of functioning. Apart from the other differences described all through the manual, the main
differences of the Winner transmitter with regards to the rest of Itowa equipments are the following
ones:
- When placing the battery, the transmitter tests its leds. They light sequentially one by one.
- Led :
▪When it lights, it indicates that the transmitter is switched on.
▪In GCFI models, when the led does not light it means that it is receiving data. Since there is a
bidirectional communication with the receiver, when the led blinks several times quickly, it
shows that communication works properly.
▪In the same version GFCI the led keeps lighted if the user tries to activate one manoeuvre and
there is no established communication with the receiver.
- Led S1
▪In case this led blinks constantly after the test of leds, this indicates that there is an error in
the configuration memory of the E2prom.
▪For special applications this led may have associated functions.
- Led S2 is only used for special applications.
- Led S3.
▪In case of pressing the start button while pressing another manoeuvre button, this led will
blink.
The diagrams listed below show different configurations according to the applications.

3.2. RECEIVER
The receiver unit consists of a cabinet in which the various electronic systems are located to receive
orders and activate / deactivate the corresponding relays for each manoeuvre of the crane.
The receiver unit can be divided into three blocks (Fig. 3.13, UHF receiver, control circuit and relay
circuit.
In GCFI versions, the block diagram is as follows,
Fig.3.13 Block Diagram of the receiver
The signal received by the antenna is injected to the receiver, which supplies a low frequency signal
in FFSK code to the micro-processor. The control module checks that the information received is free
of errors, and then draws up the corresponding orders to activate the corresponding relay.
In GFCI equipments, the transmitter becomes a transceiver. This enables a bi-directional
communication with the receiver.
In the event of anomalies in the working order of hardware or software, there are specific circuits in
the control circuit, which deactivate the radio control work manoeuvres.
For greater safety, all surveillance circuits are doubled.
