Green light
NB:
Activation is indicated by a steady green light in the “POWER” indicator and
a short sound. All subsequent use of buttons is shown on the associated
indicator above the button, accompanied by a short sound.
Orange light
Low voltage at the electronic unit is indicated by an orange light in the “POWER”
indicator.
Red light
The indicator will quickly blink red in case of system faults and slowly blink red
together with short sounds if the remote is unable to communicate with the
electronic unit.
If the thruster is overloaded and requires time to cool down, this will also be
indicated by quick red flashing.
These error messages are shown when buttons are pushed.
2.4 Upgrade to wireless remote control
XForce Thrusters can be delivered with 3 different versions electronic control units (MCU).
1. Relay box (power contactor).
2. Relay box (power contactor) with integrated radio receiver.
3. Transistor-controlled power electronics with integrated radio receiver that replace the conventional
power contactor. (Available from summer 2008.)
The new electronic unit contains no open contacts and is very flexible as regards voltage. The control
electronics are software based and feature an integrated radio receiver that communicates with the wireless
remote control and built in system to protect the thruster motor and electronic components.
IMPORTANT!
Turn off the thruster main switch when not in use. The radio
receiver current consumption will be approx 3.5 W as long as it is turned on.
2.4.1
Antenna installation
If wireless remote control option is to be implemented after choosing
version 2 or 3:
•
If not already installed, the MCU must be fitted with an antenna.
•
The remote control and electronic unit must also be coded/taught
electronically to communicate with each other.
•
Remove the left rubber cover. Then push the antenna through the
cover (on one side).
•
While holding down the antenna connector handle, push the antenna
all the way down into the bottom of the clamp. Release the handle
and the antenna is fixed in place.
