4.2.2.10 Auxiliary STOP Push Button Function

The auxiliary STOP function acts as a 2
emergency stop button and transmitter power key switch, the receiver MAIN is also
deactivated when this auxiliary stop push button is pressed (refer to page 35 on how to
set to this function).
4.2.2.11 Pitch & Catch Function
This function allows two operators to control one crane from opposite ends of a cross or
long travel (refer to page 35 on how to set to this function). When set to "Pitch & Catch"
make sure the 2
if the system is preset at "Ch.01" then the channel of the 2
"Ch.02". Furthermore, the dip-switch position #7 and #8 on the receiving module should be
set to "10", this will allow the receiver to scan only Ch.01 and Ch.02 (please refer to the
illustration below). On the other hand, since there are only 62 available channels on the
Flex system, the system preset at channel 62 is ineffective because the 2
cannot be set to Ch.63. If your system is preset at Ch.62 make sure to change it to another
channel.
