Normally the controller operates wirelessly via
radio but it can also be operated via cable
Via radio:
The controller contains a radio for two-way
communication. This means that information can
be sent both from and to the controller. In the
decoder/radio there is a corresponding unit which
handles the traffic at the other end. The radio is
of the “Bluetooth” type and therefore operates in
the 2.4 GHz band. This is a free band which has
been approved practically world wide. No licence
is needed and the radio can in principle be used
everywhere, including across national boundaries.
The controller is equipped with a menu selec-
tion system as standard. The display continu-
ously provides the operator with information.
The centre display
provides information about
which menu has been chosen, as well as indicat-
ing the radio reception conditions, battery status,
fault information, micro, ADC, manual extension,
and so on.
The side displays
show the symbol for the
function which each lever activates in the chosen
menu. When the operator changes menu, the
symbols change to the functions that become
active.
Via cable:
A four-metre cable is supplied as standard with
the radio kit of the controller. The cable is
intended to be used for short-term operation and
when pairing in conjunction with the replacement
of controllers or decoders. The cable connects to
the vehicle at the left-hand CAN bus connector
on the decoder.
If the controller is to be wired permanently or for
a long period, an adapter cable is connected from
the user panel and installed at a suitable location
on the vehicle. To give the operator greater
freedom of movement, a 15-metre cable is used
between the adapter and the controller.
