Maintenance Procedures. 

Preventive Maintenance

 is a periodic check of the system to keep it functioning at peak 

performance. Preventive maintenance can also help prevent breakdowns and equipment outages 
by identifying potential problems before they become real problems.  

Corrective Maintenance

 refers to fixing a problem once it has occurred. The goal of corrective 

maintenance is to get the system back on line as quickly as possible with a minimum impact on 
operations. 

Preventive maintenance – PS Controllers. 

Preventive maintenance for PS controllers is minimal because they are extremely durable and reliable 
units.  Preventive maintenance procedures are detailed in the following sub paragraphs: 

Daily Visual Inspection. 

Before use, visually inspect the controller for cleanliness, physical damage, and security of 
external parts (screws, switches, rubber grips, etc.). CATTRON-THEIMEG

 emphasizes 

that regular visual inspections not only mean quickly locating a source of potential problems, 
but also may prevent serious problems from developing later. 

Annual Netting Check. 

Netting means that the receiver and transmitter of the radio control system are aligned on the 
same frequency. It is very important that the receiver is exactly tuned to the frequency 
required. This check should be done 

once a year by a qualified radio technician utilizing 

calibrated test equipment.

 

Troubleshooting – PS Controllers. 

A basic Troubleshooting Guide is provided on page 4 of this section.  When troubleshooting the 
controller, the other major components of the remote control system (power supply and 
receiver/decoder) should be fully operational.  The operator should also be located within 500 feet (160+ 
meters) of the target receiver/decoder.  

Corrective maintenance – PS Controllers. 

Corrective maintenance for PS Controllers is restricted to replacing the Battery Pack, Rubber Side Grips, 
Top End Cap sub-assembly, Bottom End Cap sub-assembly and Upper Main Body Housing.  Refer to 
the 

Disassembly/Assembly

 procedures below when removing and replacing items.  On completion of 

any assembly procedure and before placing the PS Controller into operational service, carry out a 
Functional Check as follows:
