INTRODUCTION The Alpha 500 series are highly reliable industrial remote control systems. The versatile features of the Alpha 500 series permit its use in many different remote control applications. They can be used to control cranes, hoists, trolleys, mining equipment, building construction equipment, automatic control systems, and many others. The Alpha 500 series radio control system incorporates numerous redundant safety circuits that guaranty maximum security and ensure the system is resistant to outside interference. The major features of the Alpha 500 series are as follow: * The system uses advanced microprocessors which utilizes highly evolved software that have redundant error checking and correcting capabilities to ensure 100 % error-free transmission, decoding, and control of the output relays. These highly evolved software include CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check codes) and Hamming Codes. * To insure maximum operating safety, the Alpha 500 series incorporate many safety features. Some of these safety features include receiver self-diagnosing, transmitter pushbutton self-diagnosing, transmitter low voltage detection/warning, transmitter/receiver auto shutdown after 1 minute of transmitter low voltage warning, and receiver MAIN deactivation during transmitter non-usage (programmable from 0~30 minutes). * The encoder/decoder system utilizes advanced microprocessor. The availability of 32,768 sets of unique ID codes will ensure that only commands from the matching control transmitter can be carried out without any interference from other radio systems. A special programmable integrated circuit is used to insure the unit can not simultaneously command conflicting movements. * Full SMT design for system stability. The Alpha 500 series radio control system consists of a transmitter handheld, a receiver unit, and a six-foot (2-meter) output cable. The transmitter casing is molded using an industrial strength composite material which is impervious to dust, water, oil, acids, alkaline, heat, sunlight, and as well as being resistant to deformation due to long term use in harsh environments. The pushbuttons are also constructed from industrial strength composite material with a minimum of up to one million cycles. For power saving, the transmitter unit uses special high efficiency power saving circuits that requires only two “AA” alkaline batteries (UM-3). 3 2. SAFETY INSTRUCTION The Alpha 500 systems are relatively simple to use. However, it is very important to observe the proper safety procedures during operation. When use properly the Alpha 500 systems will enhance productivity and efficiency in the workplace. The following instructions should be strictly followed: 1. Make a daily check of the transmitter casing and pushbuttons. Should it appear that anything could inhibit the proper operation of the transmitter unit, it should be immediately removed from service. 2. The transmitter voltage should be checked on a daily basis. If the voltage is low, the two "AA" alkaline batteries should be replaced. 3. The emergency stop pushbutton (EMS) should be checked at the beginning of each shift to ensure they are in the proper working order. 4. In the event of an emergency, activate the emergency…

Retlif Testing Laboratories R Test Report No. R-8870-1 FCC ID: LZ6ALPHA506SERIES REPORT OF MEASUREMENTS (continued) DETERMINATION OF FIELD STRENGTH LIMITS The field strength limits shown below are found in Section 15.231. Frequency Limit F1=2603750=L1 Fo=301.4Lo F2=47012500=L2 The formula below was utilized to determine the limits: Limit = L1 + [(Fo-F1)(L2-L1)/(F2-F1)] Solving yields: Fundamental Limit= 5,460 μV/M (AVERAGE) @ 3 Meters Harmonic Limit= 546 μV/M (AVERAGE) @ 3 Meters DETERMINATION OF DUTY CYCLE The unit’s RF output was directly coupled to the input of the spectrum analyzer. The analyzer was set for a frequency span of 0Hz. The sweep time was then adjusted in order to display one full pulse train. The transmitter on time was then summed and compared to the time for one full cycle in order to obtain the duty cycle. Transmitter On Time=>100.0 milliseconds (maximum- worst case in 100 ms) Transmitter Cycle Time =>100 milliseconds Transmitter Duty Cycle=100 % SPECTRUM ANALYZER DESENSITIZATION CONSIDERATIONS NOT APPLICABLE - The device transmits a Continuous Wave (CW) signal. Retlif Testing Laboratories R Test Report No. R-8870-1 FCC ID: LZ6ALPHA506SERIES GENERAL NOTES 1.All readings were taken utilizing a peak detector function at a test distance of 3 meters. 2.The duty cycle was applied to the peak readings in order to determine the average value of the emissions. 3.All measurements were made with (3) new 1.5 VDC “AA” batteries installed in the unit. 4.The frequency range was scanned from 30 MHz to 3.1 GHz.
