SECURE & DEPENDABLE COMMUNICATIONS

• Frequency agility feature automatically switches channels when interference is detected on a channel
• Advanced synthesised RF controls with 124 channels (62 channels user-programmable) add flexibility to frequency management
• Each Flex Wave system has over one million unique identification codes (20 Bit)
• Replacement transmitters can be paired wirelessly from transmitter to transmitter or receiver to transmitter. Built-in infrared allows for easy transmitter configuration with the IR Programmer
• Advanced microprocessor controls with 32 bit CRC and Hamming Code provide ultra-fast, safe, precise, and error-free encoding and decoding

SPECIALTY MODELS

AB SELECTOR SWITCH (AB)

A three-position selector switch allows one operator to switch operation between two trolley/hoists (A, B, or Both) that are located on a single bridge. The operator can easily identify which trolley hoist is active on the crane by the position of the selector switch (Available on 8- and 12-button models).

RECEIVERS

Flex Wave systems are packaged with two transmitters and a receiver for easy replacement and increased uptime. Certain features of the Flex Wave are enabled when 4- or 6-button transmitters are paired with the space-saving MRX receiver. Full features are enabled when 4, 6, 8, or 12-button transmitters are paired with the Wave receiver.

FEATURES

• Designed to simplify installation and provide flexibility for easy adjustments or configurations
• Onboard diagnostic and output LEDs provide system status information for installation and troubleshooting
• Standard voltages available are 9-36VDC, 24VAC, 42VAC, 48VAC, 110VAC, 240VAC, and 400VAC-480VAC
