Description:
The Daktronics S Series Controller is the most economical form of control available and should be
selected only if precise positioning and speed control is not required. The Remote Control Station
will contain a RAISE and LOWER button for the Vortek hoist in the system, a main POWER ON
key switch, FAULT RESET button, an Emergency Stop button located on the bottom of the unit, and
indicator lights for POWER ON, FAULT RESET. A lockable main power disconnect handle will also be
accessible on the front of the Hoist Remote Power Panel for the removal of all power from the system.
The optional handheld pendant controller will contain RAISE, LOWER, FAULT RESET, and a locking
Emergency Stop along with indicator lights for FAULT RESET and the E-stop. The handheld pendants
should be used where proper line-of-site is not feasible from the location of the Remote Control
Station.
Operation:
To power up the system:
Turn on the main disconnect switch located on the front of the Hoist Remote Power Panel and then
turn on the key switch, located on the Remote Control Station. The green power light should now be
illuminated. If the green power light does not illuminate, check to make sure that the E-Stop button are
not pressed.
If the red light stays illuminated, then one of the over travel limits has been engaged. Contact
Daktronics for instructions on resolving this issue.
