How It Compares With The Alternatives
| Radio remote control | Pendant has no batteries, no pairing, and no interference; radio adds range but requires power and channel management |
|---|---|
| F24 series radio remote | Pendant is simpler and cheaper; radio allows hands-free operation but needs a receiver and power source |
| XAC series pendant | AR1-Y has a more robust housing and higher IP rating; XAC may be lighter but less dust and water resistant |
Getting It Onto The Machine
- Confirm the control voltage and contactor rating before connecting to the machine
- Use the on/off button to power the control; do not leave it on when not in use
- Check the button labels and ensure the correct function is assigned to each button
- Inspect the housing and cable for damage before use, especially in harsh environments
- Replace the entire pendant if any button fails or the housing is cracked
