3. Why use Remote Control Cattron Portable Remote Control (PRC) systems deliver the safety and dependability required for efficient industrial control applications such as overhead cranes, conveyors, machines, etc. A remote control system enables an operator to be in the safest, most comfortable and most efficient position for each operation, minimizing risks of illness, injury or material damage and simultaneously boosting efficiency and productivity. -

RF channels will be available within that band. A clear unused (unless timesharing with another Cattron system) channel will be required for reliable operation. The OCU and MCU must operate on the same RF channel to communicate. -

MCUs. This portfolio and the possible combinations will be continuously expanded. These OCUs are not backward compatible with older Remtron™, Cattron™ or CattronControl™ MCUs because they have a high security, Enhanced Black Channel RF telegram format, that has become necessary to prevent a remote control system being subjected to a 'Store and Replay Attack' the possibility of which has been made more likely by the proliferation of lower cost RF scanning equipment. -
Page 10: Ocu Overview
The system is available as a range of standard packages that fit most applications but can also be tailored to any custom application. This provides great flexibility to make the solution exactly fit your needs. Standard Systems configurations and other media are available on the www.Cattron.com website under the specific product resources tab. -
Page 11: Ocu Types Overview
6.2 OCU Types Overview The Remtron PatriotPro is a lightweight, palm-sized, extremely rugged controller in standard and customized configurations. A label insert sheet is provided to identify button functionality that suits most applications. While the front graphic is standard, customized graphics and switch configurations are possible. - Page 12 At startup the pushbuttons are checked for the correct off state. These OCUs use off-the-shelf AA Alkaline batteries that will typically provide around 95 hours of continuous operation; the batteries are accessed via a sealed cover retained by two screws, as shown below. Figure 2: OCU, rear view 1.

Page 13: Data Logging
6.3 Data Logging These OCUs feature a fault and data logging capability, which allows users to diagnose intermittent operational issues and record the total switch activations for planned maintenance. The Associated MCUs feature enhanced logging capabilities with totalizers and run-time per motion, enabling planned maintenance and data analytics. The OCU logs specific data, as shown in the table below. -

7. Operating Instructions 7.1 OCU First Use Insert a new set of AA-size Alkaline batteries; these need to be installed. 7.2 OCU Battery – Removal and Replacement Referring to the figure below, the battery access is under the cover on the rear of the OCU. To replace the batteries, insert new batteries taking note of the correct polarity as shown on the graphic •... -
Page 15: Operating The Ocu
WARNING Multiple remote control systems may be used at, around, or near your operating facility. Therefore, before selecting an address for a system or spare, you must ensure it is the correct address for the equipment to operate. If the wrong address is programmed into an OCU or MCU, other remote-controlled equipment at, around, or nearby your facility may unintentionally become operational. -

8.2 Maintenance Personnel Unless customer technicians have received formal maintenance training from Cattron, the safe and approved maintenance philosophy is that faulty OCUs or MCUs should be returned to an authorized facility for repair. This ensures that safety and reliability are maintained at the required level. -

Due to this flexible and easily upgradeable configuration concept, it is not uncommon for one OCU to be kept as a spare for multiple cranes or machines, even if its functionality is widely varying. All OCU and MCU access is carried out wirelessly over a Bluetooth link from a laptop or PC running the Cattron software utility called CattronLink™. -
