key switch”, then need turn the key to “OFF” position and remove it.
◎Transmitter should be placed in a safe area when not in use to avoid accidental
pressing of buttons.
◎The crane should be equipped with main power relay, limit switch and other safety
devices.
◎The GND (ground) of the receiver must be in contact with the metal part of the crane
or electrical shock may occur.
◎Don’t use equipment during lightening or high electrical interference conditions.
◎Make sure that the batteries are in good condition and power for receiver is correct.
◎Installation and maintenance should only be done while the crane’s main power is off
to prevent electrical shock.

2-2 Precautions
☆ Operating in an industrial facility is highly dangerous, therefore, operator must have
adequate training in using TELECRANE with this in mind.
☆ Those who operate the machine should be healthy and have good judgment in
regards to safety.
☆ Although the F21 transmitter is very durable and weather resistant care should be
taken not to expose it to severe impact or pressure.
☆ During operation, if the power supplied from transmitter’s batteries is insufficient,
the transmitter will send out EMS signal first to de-energize all of motion relays
inside the receiver to stop crane’s moving (Notice: the motions which are set
as ”Bypass EMS” will continuously move.), and then the LED indicator on
transmitter will light continuously. At this time, need to be replaced with AA size
alkaline batteries. All batteries should be replaced at the same time. Don’t use
manganese-zinc batteries because of their corrosive properties.
☆ If the severe interference occurred you should stop using the equipment at once.
☆ Please take the battery out when the equipment will not be used for a long time.
☆ Be sure to know the “Procedures of emergency” in case of emergency.

2-3 Procedures of emergency
The F21 system has various protections to guard against different emergencies
including strict security code checking and automatic monitoring of parts failure. The
F21 system has isolation circuitry to protect from outside voltage surges and
interference. In the event of sensing an emergency situation the F21 will perform an
emergency stop of the equipment. It is important to properly install the F21 system so it
can perform the emergency shutdown properly.
In case of an Emergency, please follow the steps below and ask the distributor for
service immediately.
1. Press EMS button.
2. Turn the “rotary key switch” to “OFF” position and remove it.
3. Switch off the main power of crane.
4. Advise the distributor to find out the reason.

/mushroom, (2) rotate key counter-clock-wise to the “OFF” position (3) remove
key and keep it in a safe place, (4) Switch off the main power switch of the
equipment (e.g. Crane)
4 – 4 Special Functions Operation
4-4-1 Swapping COM & MAIN wires
According to the standard wiring diagram, all relays including the Main relay will
be turned off when the EMS is pressed. However, when a pushbutton is
programmed as a TOGGLE or an ON/OFF function with bypass EMS control, it
won’t work correctly with the standard wire setting diagram. In order to program a
pushbutton as TOGGLE or ON/OFF with bypass EMS control, the MAIN wire and
COM wire must be swapped.
4-4-2 Changing the frequency
It is very simple to change the frequency of the new F21 crystal series. The systems
frequency can be changed simply by replacing the correspondent crystal frequency
in both the TX and RX.
Instructions:
(1). Pry up the crystal unit with a flat screwdriver
(2). Remove the crystal unit from the system.
(3). Use a needle nose pliers to straighten both pins of the new crystal unit.
(4). Insert the new crystal unit vertically into the PC board.
(5). Press the new crystal down into the socket.
4-4-3 Independent COM Line:
The new F21 crystal series provides the option of independent (separated) COM
lines.
F21-E1: 4 independent COM lines (Up/Down, East/West, South/North and R0)
10

If the independent COM Line is required, cut the wire labeled with a white “X.”. The
longer part of the wire will become the new COM Line. Then you may connect this
new COM wire with an output wire.
4-4-4 Replacing the Fuse
Depress the fuse cover and turn counter-clockwise with flat screwdriver to open up
the fuse cover. Then remove the old fuse. Insert the new correct fuse into the cover
first. Place this fuse along with cover into the fuse holder base, and depress the fuse
cover and turn clockwise with flat screwdriver.
4-4-5 Changing R0/START NO (Normally Open) relay into NC (Normally
Close).
The new F21 crystal series provides 2 different outputs: NO and NC. The NO is the
default setting. If a NC output is necessary, remove the No. 11 wire (R0/Start, pink
color) from the connector and insert it in No. 12.
4-4-6 Remote Setting
Remote setting allows you to pair the new TX and RX if one of them is damaged. In
order to work the TX & RX must have the same ID codes and frequency. Using remote
setting will make both the TX and RX to have the same ID codes.
Prior to remote setting, please follow the instruction below,
(a)Make sure both TX and RX are of the same model and frequency.
(b)In order to avoid any interference, place the remote setting TX as close as
possible to the RX.
(c)Turn off the RX power completely (MAIN SWITCH) for 20 seconds and turn it
on again.
(d)Complete the remote setting within 4 minutes after turning on the RX. The RX
will NOT accept the remote setting signal after 4 minutes.
Remote Setting Instructions:
(1)Depress the TX Emergency Stop (For those systems without a Mushroom style
stop button that stays depressed, please hold down the “STOP” pushbutton)
(2)Press UP pushbutton and hold it.
(3)Press DOWN pushbutton 4 times and release “STOP & UP” pushbuttons when
the red light is flashing.
(4)Start the system as usual.
