Every country has legislated certain frequency bands for the use of the different
applications.
In Spain, there are two bands for the use of remote controls via radio. The IKUSI units
work on the bands of 433 Mhz and 800 Mhz.
Band of 433 Mhz (433,050 to 434,775Mhz)
Band of 800 Mhz (869,70625 to 869,98125Mhz)
2.7.- FREQUENCY
This is the channel of frequency, within the legal bands on which the unit operates. There
are different work channels; each work channel is the equivalent of a frequency. For a receiver to
detect its transmitter, the two must work on the same channel.
When in an installation, there are two units with the same frequency, these may interfere
with each other, causing losses of connection to one another and with them, stopping of the
movements of the crane. When there are two units with the same frequency they can interfere with
each other, but they will never act on the other crane.
It is recommended that the units that work on tower cranes, construction, have selected the
scanning option in starting up. It causes the receiver to make a frequency sweep of the
frequencies in the zone that are free and work on one of them. The construction units are
manufactured with this option activated.
The industry units, as always, are installed in the plant itself; they do not change
frequencies on starting up. To avoid interferences, each user must at all times have a list of the
units owned with their work frequencies and check that they do not have units that are working at
the same frequency.
The change of frequency must be made only when we are sure that there are two units in
an installation with the same frequency. It must be pointed out that if a unit breaks down it is not
repaired by changing the frequency. All frequency changes must be communicated to the user so
as to register them in his unit list.
2.8.- THE ID
This is a unit code which every unit possesses. There cannot exist two units of the same
model with the same ID in different applications.
The ID code is a safety measure. For a transmitter to control a receiver, in addition to
working on the same frequency channel of the receiver, it must send it, with the burst of data, the
same ID code that the receiver possesses.
When on an installation, there are two units with the same frequency, these can interfere
with one another, causing losses of connection and with this, stopping of the movements of the
crane. As in order for a receiver to begin operation, in addition to receiving a signal with its
frequency channel, it must receive, in the signal, its identification code, it is ensured that when
