1 hubbell industrial Controls, June 1999 NewReplaces Catalog Sheet 31110 of Mar 95 Catalog Sheet 31115 of Sep 97 Catalog Sheet 31120 of Jun 96 RadioControlTransmittersHubbell Radio Remote Control SystemsHUBBELLAll hubbell Radio Control Transmitters use thelatest microcontroller technology and ultrareliable Manchester II (biphase) digital, FM datatransmission. These Transmitters are for use withHubbell Radio Control receivers on cranes,locomotives, etc. The Transmitters operate on alicensed frequency in the 72 to 76 MHz or the450 to 470 MHz bands.

2 (Only the equipment is license-free.)A typical transmitter has three or four stepped orstepless lever function switches for the maincrane motions. Toggle switches and push buttonsare used for the auxiliary functions. The keyoperated On/Off switch controls power to thetransmitter, and the Run/E-stop toggle switchcontrols the main line contactor on the toggle switches are used for the Control ofany lifting magnets: one for Lift and both for Drop . An LED indicates transmitter is operatingnormally when it flashes at the transmit rate andcomes on steady when the Ni-Cad batteryneeds recharging.

3 Internal antennas are usedwith all Transmitters , except the hand-held, whichuses an external antenna. The fixed transmitteruses coax cable to its remote Mid-Size Compact Full-Size Fixed TransmitterHubbell industrial Control Size TransmitterThis portable transmitter is housed in a light,rugged, weather proof plastic case suitable forsevere industrial environments. The switches forcontrol of Bridge, Trolley and Hoist are reliablereturn-to-center devices with positive detents in allpositions.

4 Up to five-speed, or stepless reversingcontrol of all motors can be functions such as: horn, bridge brake andmagnet lift/drop are controlled by high qualitytoggle switches with sturdy operating handles. Allswitches are located for ease of operation andidentified on an engraved legend RF transmitter is crystal controlled and all logicis handled by a microcontroller. The antenna iscompletely enclosed within the transmitter unit is powered by a rechargeable 12 voltnickel cadmium battery capable of 500 or morerecharge cycles.

5 The quick disconnect batterymodule provides up to 5 shifts continuous service(40 hrs.) more in normal intermittent day to dayoperation. A low battery LED indicator is bench top charger will recharge a batterywithin 8 shoulder-type carrying harness is provided whichis adjustable over a wide range of sizes toaccommodate operator comfort and TransmitterThe hubbell Mid-Size Transmitter is for use withHubbell biphase or microcontroller receivers. It isused for the remote Control of overhead cranes,locomotives and other moving equipment.

6 Thetransmitter is fully self contained with battery,controller board, rf board, antenna, switches andindicators in a small, lightweight, rugged plasticcase. The transmitter is equipped with either a 72 76 MHz or 450 470 MHz rf board and antenna,per customer similar to a crane cab master controller areprovided for the Control of bridge, trolley, mainhoist, and auxiliary hoist motions. Each controlswitch has a positive detent arrangement toprovide operator feedback of individual speedpoints. Additional toggle or spring return switches,key switches or pushbuttons can be provided forthe Control of other functions such as horn, brakes,magnets, tongs, etc.

7 A Master Key Switch isprovided for turning battery power on and off tothe transmitter Control circuit. A Run/EmergencyStop toggle switch is provided for quick stop incase of emergency. This switch must be in the Runposition for the transmitter to battery is a 12 volt Ni-Cad module having thecapacity to power the transmitter for two workshifts (20 hours) when fully charged. It is easilyremoved for quick recharging in the transmitter comes with a battery pack, twokeys for the Master Switch and a fully adjustableshoulder Micro-controller RadioCrane CompactStyle AC CompactStyle DC Micro-controller RadioLocomotive CompactStyle ReceiverHubbell industrial Control hubbell Hand-Held Transmitter is amicrocontroller for use with Hubbellbiphase or microcontroller receivers.

8 It issuitable for the remote Control ofoverhead cranes, locomotives, etc. Thetransmitter is fully self contained withbattery, controller board, rf board,antenna, switches and indicators in asmall, lightweight, rugged plastic transmitter is equipped with a 72 76 MHz rf board and external rocker switches Control thebridge, trolley, and hoist motors. Up to amaximum of 3 speed points are availablefor each motion. The momentary Run pushbutton is used to initiate the turn-onsequence which is a series of keystrokesthat must be completed within 10 secondsof pressing Run , or the transmitter willnot power-up and close the maincontactor.

9 The E-Stop momentarypushbutton is used to remove power fromthe crane and turn off the transmitter. Inaddition, there are three momentarypushbuttons near the bottom of thetransmitter. One is used to sound thecrane siren, the remaining two areavailable for any other transmitter operates for about70 hours on a standard 9 volt alkalinebattery. The battery is easily transmitter includes a leather casewith belt TransmitterThe hubbell Fixed Transmitter is amicrocontroller based, biphasemodulated transmitter for use with Hubbellmicrocontroller receivers.

10 The fixedtransmitter communicates to the remotereceiver via Radio transmission,eliminating the need for festooning,cabling, Fixed Transmitter is housed in aNEMA 12 surface-mounting consoleintegrating several hubbell operatorinterface products. The transmitterelectronics are essentially the same asused in the mid-size transmitter. Internalpower supplies are provided foroperation from 120V ac or 250V antenna mounts remotely and isconected to the transmitter by coax operator controlis via a Type 4211 Mini-Master Switchfor each function controlled by thetransmitter.
