The ORIGA T150 / R160 is a portable, long range, programmable radio remote control system. Designed as a compact
and easy-to-use product, this member of the ORIGA family puts complete control of your crane where it’s needed most,
with the operator. It’s robust, easy to install and has complete self-diagnostics. This system can be a simple cable re-
placement or add intelligence to make it a total crane control package. It’s a radio, a PLC and a valve driver all in one.
The ORIGA T150 / R160 system uses Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology. FHSS devices con-
centrate their full power into a very narrow signal that randomly hops from frequency to frequency within a designated
band. This transmission pattern, along with CRC-16 error-checking techniques, enables signals to overcome interfer-
ence that commonly affects licensed radios.
The R160 receiver is designed to be powered from a 12VDC or 24VDC system. It features 19 solid state, high-side
driver input / output controls and a reliable E-Stop control.
The T150 transmitter comes with 4 to 7 switches and an optional proportional trigger control. It uses standard, long
lasting AA batteries. Each T150 transmitter uses a unique ID code to ensure that no two systems will conflict at a job
site.
Features
• FCC, ISC, CE approved
• License free
• 1200 foot range @ 900 MHz (900 ft. @ 2.4 GHz)
• Hand held / weatherproof / ergonomic
• Simple “wire-and-use” installation
• Resilient to impact and shock
• Available in both 900 MHz and 2.4 GHz
• Available with optional trigger for proportional control
• Available with E-Stop for ensured operator safety
• Available with an optional tether cable
• Factory configurable for all custom applications.

Mounting and Installation
The receiver can be mounted by fastening two ¼” bolts through the two mounting holes in the unit’s enclosure. When
mounting, ensure that the receiver is oriented so that the text is reading right and the connectors pointing “down”.
When selecting a mounting point for the receiver, it is recommended that the location require only a minimal length of wir-
ing to connect it to the control panel, that it will be in a visible area where it has good exposure to the operator and that it
is mounted on a surface that is protected from the weather and sustains minimal vibration. It is also recommended that
the receiver have the best possible line of sight with the transmitter
Power Connections and Wiring
Whenever a power connection is made to an electronic device, it is a good practice to make both the Power (+) and
Ground (-) connections directly to the Battery and avoid connecting the power from the charging side of existing wiring or
making use of existing "ACC" or other peripheral connection points.
Make sure that wire of sufficient gauge and insulator type is used when connecting the outputs of the receiver to the con-
trol panel. Observe any component manufacturer's instructions and recommendations for proper integration of their
product. This includes the power ratings and requirements of such components as relays, valves, solenoids, etc.
Be sure to test each of the outputs with a multi-meter prior to connecting the outputs to your end devices. This will ensure
that each output has been programmed to operate in the manner required by each end device.
Filtering and Noise Suppression
Whenever a solenoid or electromagnetic switch is controlled by the receiver, it is a good practice to install a Diode across
its terminals to ensure that surges and spikes do not continue back into the circuit. Appropriate 36V Bi-directional Diodes
kits can be ordered under the OMNEX part number “AKIT-2492-01”.
Special Functions
Installation Considerations
NOTE:
The FCC and ISC require that the antenna be restricted to that supplied by the manufacturer and approved for use with this product. An op-
tional 0dB coax wire antenna may be supplied. For other antenna options, please contact OMNEX Control Systems ULC

Note: Before you proceed with the Download ID procedure located on Page 7, great care
and caution must be adhered to. Also, refer to Chart #4 for Tips and Considerations.
If by accident, the transmitters have been switched with another unit, by downloading the
ID code to a new receiver, it is possible for the transmitter to operate 2 units at the same
time (if the original receiver unit is still on the job site). Therefore it must be
certain that the transmitter / receiver pair are the correct set.
Secondly, once the download procedure is completed, ensure all other units on the job site
are stopped. Test the operation of the newly configured set to ensure no other
machines on the site work with the same transmitter.
Once you are certain that the transmitter / receiver pair are a unique set, continue
normal operations.

Considerations when Downloading the ID
Potential downloading issues
If testing of the receiver and transmitter both show the system as working (Chart 1 & 2), then the transmitter and receiver
will both go into Download/Configuration mode.
Possible issues could arise during Step 4, the download phase of reprogramming. In this case there are 2 symptoms to
look for:
1. The Link light on the receiver will not turn GREEN when the power switch is toggled on the transmitter to download
2. The receiver will “time out” indicating that it didn’t receive a signal from the transmitter within the 30 seconds from
the time the receiver was put into Setup Mode.
If all indications appear normal during the download phase, test the link by turning on the transmitter (note: the transmit-
ter shuts off after transmitting the ID code in Step 4)
1. If the Link light on the receiver doesn’t turn GREEN, the receiver didn’t receive all of the information that was sent
from the transmitter.
Possible Solutions
1. Try the Downloading steps again
2. If this doesn’t correct the problem, send both the transmitter and receiver in for service.
Note: you could try to determine whether the fault lies with the transmitter or receiver by completing the downloading
procedure with a different transmitter. If this step works, then the fault lies with the original transmitter. If not, the
fault may lie with the receiver.
!!Caution!!
Note: Before attempting downloading with another transmitter, understand that repro-
gramming the receiver with another transmitter, could result in two receivers on the job
site responding to the one transmitter. If the original transmitter was sent in for repair,
Disconnect the receiver (disconnect connector A) to continue using the machine with-
out remote capability and without fear of inadvertently operating the machine with the
other transmitter.
Connector A
Reprogramming Tips:
1. Use a pointy instrument to depress the Setup button on the receiver (i.e. a pen) as the button is relatively small
2. Follow each step as laid out in the procedure
3. Never lay the receiver circuit board down on anything metallic (there are contact points on the back which could con-
tact the metal and damage the receiver)
