Flex 8EX / 12EX EU System Instruction ManualMarch 2018Page 44 of 664.2.2.10 Pitch & Catch FunctionThis function allows two operators to control one crane from opposite ends of across or long travel (see Section 4.2.4 on page 45 on how to set to this function).When set to “Pitch & Catch” make sure the 2nd transmitter is set to the next-highestchannel (channel X*+1). For example, if the system is preset at Ch. 01 then thechannel of the 2nd transmitter should be set to Ch. 02. Furthermore, dipswitchpositions #7 and #8 on the receiving module should be set to “10”. This will allow thereceiver to scan only Ch. 01 and Ch. 02. On the other hand, since there are only 62available channels on the Flex system, the system preset at channel 62 is ineffectivebecause the 2nd transmitter cannot be set to Ch. 63. If your system is preset at Ch.62, be sure to change it to another channel.4.2.3 Receiver Auto-Scanning SettingsReceiver Channel DipswitchExample: If the first 6 dipswitch positions on the receiving module are set to Ch. 01(“000000” or “000001”), when set to 2-channel scanning (type 3 above), then thereceiver will only scan Ch. 01 and Ch. 02.41 32 65 8741 32 65 8742 31 7 85 641 2 3 65 7 8↓(1) → Scans all 62 channels (manufacture preset)For standard operation(2) → Single fixed channelAuto-scanning function disabled(3) → Scanning 2 channels only (channel X*, channel X*+1)For Pitch & Catch and Random Access operationwith 2 receivers(4) → Scanning 3 channels only (channel X*, channel X*+1,channel X*+2)For Random Access operation with 3 receivers* Channel X → Channel set on the receiving module
