900MHz and 2.4MHz Manual Cervis, Inc. Safety Precautions Read and follow all instructions. Failure to abide by Safety Precautions may cause equipment failure, loss of authority to operate the equipment, and personal injury. Use and maintain proper wiring. Follow equipment manufacturer instructions.
SmaRT BU-xH8D Base Unit Family Definitions/Notes Associate/Association SmaRT configuration method using a series of specific remote unit button presses to establish a communication link between a SmaRT handheld remote and a SmaRT base unit. DSSS Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum; an advanced wireless communication technology. Dissociate/Disassociate/Dissociation Dissolution of all established communication links between handhelds and a base unit.
1.0 SmaRT BU-xH8D Base Unit The BU-xH8D base units are the output/input modules of a SmaRT Remote Control System. A basic SmaRT control system consists of at least one Smart wireless remote transmitter, a BU- xH8D base unit, and the wiring harness that connects the base unit to the controlled apparatus. A single base unit can communicate with up to eight individual SmaRT handheld remote units, depending on remote control type.
SmaRT BU-xH8D Base Unit Family 2.0 BU-xH8D Base Unit The SmaRT BU-xH8D base unit features eight FET, 2.5A (8A max total) high-side switching outputs/inputs capable of digital or pulse-width-modulation (PWM) control @ 30–200Hz. It accepts an input power operating voltage range from +7 to +28VDC. The base unit provides a robust link with a handheld remote in congested radio environments using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) wireless technology broadcasting 900MHz @ 10mW and 2.4GHz @ 100mW.
Disable the machine on which the base unit is to be attached before installation. Use the configuration diagrams supplied by Cervis, Inc. to guide you in mounting the base unit and connecting your wiring harness. Base unit mounting is left much to your discretion with the following guidelines: ...
SmaRT BU-xH8D Base Unit Family 2.2 Base Unit Power Power is supplied to the base unit though the harness cable. The cable attaches to the base unit P1 connector. Power can be removed from the base unit by disconnecting the 12-pin cable connector from the base unit P1 socket.

SmaRT PTO, DO, OO, pistol-grip, CB, and MCB remotes; or, with another SmaRT base unit. Each wireless remote used must Associate to establish communications with the base unit. Systems are associated at Cervis, Inc. before shipping. But, when necessary, the Associate procedure (see Appendix C) can be used to establish communications.

SmaRT BU-xH8D Base Unit Family Appendix C: Typical Handheld to Base Unit Communication Handheld remote and base unit communications are established at Cervis, Inc. before shipping when systems are ordered. However, it may be necessary to establish or re-establish communication between a remote and a base unit at some point. The Associate procedure is used to do this.

SmaRT BU-xH8D Base Unit Family To Dissociate In some circumstances, it may become necessary to break the communication link—or dissociate—a base unit and a PTO handheld remote. Caution Using the following steps breaks all previously established handheld remote links. It will be necessary to perform the Association Procedure (Appendix C1, above) using each handheld to re-establish communication links with a base unit.
4. Observe the LEDs. All LEDs momentarily light solid. When the TX LED begins to blink, power up the base unit while continuing to hold SW13 and SW12. When TX, RX, ERR, and BAT light solid again, release SW13 and SW12. 2019 Cervis, Inc.
