The information is generally applicable to all Crane Boss systems manufactured by Robinson Engineering Company. Data which are unique to the particular system for which this manual is furnished are given in Section 4. 1.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION 1.2.1 General - The system is equipped with controls and accessories required for reliable electrical operation of a crane or other machinery from a portable wireless control transmitter. Control functions are provided to meet the particular requirements of each application. Characteristic features are: 1. Each system consists of a portable control transmitter which operates in conjunction with receiving equipment installed on the crane structure and electrically connected to the crane magnetic controllers. 2. "Fail-safe" circuits are used throughout the system. 3. The command link is capable of handling all motions simultaneously. 4. The system uses digital pulse code frequency modulation. It was developed specifically for industrial control. 1-1 5. The system utilizes fully solid state electronic circuits, with heavy duty relay contact output circuits. 6. Maintenance requirements are greatly reduced by modular design and use of digital switching circuits. The entire system includes only one field adjustable control, receiver sensitivity, which is non-critical. No special test equipment is required. 7. Radio control of several cranes in the same plant without interference is entirely practical. Each transmitter transmits a unique address code, which prevents response by other than the intended unit. In addition, the operating frequencies of different units are staggered within the frequency band to prevent interference. Proper selection of address codes and operating frequencies with respect to physical separation provides control of multiple installations with no practical limitation on the number at one location. 1-2 1.2.2 Transmitter - The transmitter is a portable unit which is carried by the operator. A shoulder harness and belt clips are provided to enable the operator to conveniently carry the unit while leaving hands free to operate controls. Switches on the transmitter control all functions as labelled. The portable transmitter weight is approximately 5.2 pounds. The transmitter includes integral antenna and battery pack. Battery is charged from standard a.c. wall outlet by means of a battery charger. Battery will provide 30 hours of continuous operation between charges. Full charging requires 10 to 12 hours. A transmitter with one battery pack can be operated continuously 16 hours per day and recharged in 6 hours. Continuous "around the clock" operation can be accomplished by use of a spare battery pack, with one pack in use while the other is charging. 1.2.3 Receiving Equipment - The receiving equipment cabinet is mounted on the machinery and contains the radio receiving unit, decoding equipment and relays to convert the radio signal from the transmitter to signals suitable for operation of (magnetic) controls' contractors. 1-3 1.3 GUARANTEE Manufacturer warrants the delivered remote control system to be free of defective material and workmanship and agrees to remedy any such defect within two years of first party purchase at no charge to the purchaser upon return of defective parts to factory. Defects cause by improper installation, maintenance, misuse, tampering, neglect, accident, or use in violation of manufacturer's written instructions shall not be covered by this warranty. Manufacturer guarantees that remote control system will perform as outlined in this manual. Transferring of this warranty is acceptable and recommended. Please notify this factory of any and all transfers. 1-4 1.4 FCC Statement FCC ID: NQHCBNT900TRX This equipment complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules, any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: * Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. * Increase the separation between the equipment and receive…

SAR Exclusion Justification This device FCC ID: is excluded from SAR testing by the following justification The maximum power that the transmitter is capable of is 0.70 mW Using the following formula from section 4.3.1 of KDB 447498 at test separation distances ≤ 50 mm [(max. power of channel, including tune-up tolerance, mW) / (min. test separation distance, mm)] * [ √ f(GHz)] Duty Cycle 100.00% V alue 1-g (mW) 10-g (mW) 0.13 (113) 124 "Value" is  3 , the SAR test exclusion threshold 1-g power limit 10-g power limit 158 395 “source-based” time-averaging based on an inherent property or duty-cycle of a device is allowed. An example of this is the determination of exposure from a device that uses digital technology such as a time-division multiple-access (TDMA) scheme for transmission < 50mm power limits for above caclulation using specified frequency NQHCBNT900TRX Max Peak Power (dBm) Min Separation distance (mm) Frequency (Ghz) When the minimum test separation distance is < 5 mm, a distance of 5 mm according to 5) in section 4.1 is applied to determine SAR test exclusion. 0.90262 5 -1.55 SAREXJUST-B-0-43 REV A 01/21/2014

HOW THE EUT MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF 15.31 (e) FOR THE ROBINSON ENGINEERING COMPANY CRANEBOSS REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER MODEL: CRANEBOS 300 The fundamental was maximized on the Lab B test site using a normal test setup with the AC Adapter for each printer connected directly to the AC public mains (115 Vac). Next, the AC Adapter for each printer was then connected to the Staco Energy Products Variable Auto Transformer Model: 3PN1010. The Variable Auto Transformer allows the Vac input to be varied. The AC Adapter for each printer was then connected to the Staco Energy Products Variable Auto Transformer Model: 3PN1010. The AC input was then dropped to 85% (97.75 Vac) and raised to 115% (132.25 Vac). The actual AC input was measured using a calibrated Wavetek Multimeter Model: DM25XT, Serial Number: 40209875, Calibration Due Date: May 27, 2016. The fundamental was then verified again to see that the amplitude did not change. Test Result: The EUT does NOT change amplitude at the fundamental when the AC input voltage is varied between 85% and 115% of the input nominal rated supply voltage.
