MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL 1. INTRODUCTION The manual you have in your hands is a guide to the correct use of the ITOWA multi-frequency MINI TINY. This transmitter is specially designed for remote control, without cables, Itowa receivers that act directly on electromechanical drive machinery.
MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL 2. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CORRECT AND SAFE USE OF THE TRANSMITTER In those applications where the operation of the system requires an operator, you must follow the rules described in this manual. Whenever the operator of the transmitter has to carry out any movement of the machine, he must be located in a place where he can see at all times the manoeuvre he is performing.
MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL 3. TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION 3.1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The transmitter box incorporates the 48 / 115 / 230 Vac or 12 / 24 Vdc power supply inputs, the opto- coupled digital input terminal block and the radio transmitter. Inside the transmitter box you will find the electronics responsible for the radio transmission of the machine movements.
MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL 3.2. CTN MODEL This is a watertight assembly (IP65 protection) made of a highly resistant plastic material. It contains the control and connection electronics of the transmitter. This transmitter model, thanks to its robust design, allows its location in many situations, both indoors and outdoors.
MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL 3.3. CPH MODEL This is a non-watertight assembly (IP50 protection) designed mainly for a location in an electrical cabinet or similar, protected from external agents and from humidity and dirt. The mounting system of the transmitter, standard DIN-35 rail, does not require any adaptation process, simply place it on the rail and apply light pressure.

MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL 5. INSTALLATION AND START-UP 5.1. TRANSMITTER INSTALLATION The transmitter has to be located in an accessible area so that it can be easily handled. *It is recalled, in compliance with RD 171/2004 of Coordination of Business Activities, that you must guarantee the safety conditions for the maintenance of the machine in issue, especially in its accessibility and transit areas to the points where the operator must perform his work.
MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL ATTENTION! : ONCE INSTALLED, CHECK THAT THE TRANSMITTER IS FIRMLY ANCHORED AND DOES NOT SLIDE. Because of the magnetic force of the magnets, to uninstall the device make lever with a flat screwdriver between the metal structure of the machine and the magnetic fixation.
It is recommended to connect the transmitter with a standard multi-cable hose. This hose will be connected to the transmitter at one end through the Itowa terminal strip supplied for the CTN model or to the terminal block for the CPH model, while at the other end a multi-pin connector will be placed, identical to the one used by the machine to interconnect with its conventional button panel.

USING CORRESPONDING CONNECTOR. Itowa is not responsible for improper installation. 5.4. START-UP Once the transmitter has been installed, unlock the EMERGENCY STOP to start it up. The transmitter leds will light up, as a test and the receiver will start to work activating the stop and start relays (if any) and the general contractor of the machine will be interlocked.
In general, it is advisable to carry out a complete revision of the waterproofing devices that protect the transmitter from adverse weather conditions from time to time. It is advisable that this revision is carried out by a Technical Assistance Service accredited by ITOWA, as improper waterproofing can cause irreparable damage to the units.

MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL In order to check the functioning of the active safety, it will be enough to activate the EMERGENCY STOP on the transmitter while it is running. The general contactor must fall immediately. To check the function of the passive safety, disconnect the power supply or battery of the transmitter.

MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL 7. DISPLAY OF WORKING FREQUENCY (NOT VALID FOR GCFI VERSIONS) It is important to know the frequency channel in which you are working when making a change of frequency or detect possible interference from other devices on the communication between the transmitter and receiver.
Page 22
MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL To indicate the working frequency of the transmitter, we use the leds . First, you can see as many flashes on the LED as the number of tens contains the working frequency, and then you can see as many flashes on the LED as units contains the working frequency.
MINI TINY USER'S MANUAL 8. CHANGE OF WORKING FREQUENCY (NOT VALID FOR GCFI VERSIONS) ATTENTION!: THE CHANGE OF THE WORKING FREQUENCY MUST ONLY BE DONE BY AUTHORIZED PERSONNEL. The system works in the UHF band with frequencies between 433.050 MHz and 434.775 MHz (UN 30 and 32 of the C.N.A.F.), or between 868.000 MHz and 870.000 MHz (UN 39 of the C.N.A.F.),...
