4. Setup
4.1 Wiring the Receiver
The receiver unit must be correctly wired to your crane or hoist system. Refer to the provided wiring diagram and the detailed video for proper connection. The receiver comes with a high-quality copper cable and U-shaped terminals for easy installation.
Image Description: A clear wiring diagram illustrates the color-coded wires (Black, Brown, Orange, Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Grey, White, Pink) and their corresponding functions (Power 1, Power 2, COM, MAIN, UP, DOWN, EAST, WEST, SOUTH, NORTH, RO/START).
Wiring Overview:
- Black Wire: Power 1 (Positive)
- Brown Wire: Power 2 (Ground)
- Orange Wire: COM (Main) - Public line, often used as a trigger for the circuit board.
- Red Wire: MAIN (COM) - All stop.
- Yellow Wire: UP function
- Green Wire: DOWN function
- Blue Wire: EAST function
- Purple Wire: WEST function
- Grey Wire: SOUTH function
- White Wire: NORTH function
- Pink Wire: RO/START (Spare 0) - Can be used for activating/deactivating motors or starters.
It is recommended to wire the orange trigger wire to a positive 12V source that is always active when the system is in use, or to a switched source depending on your application's safety requirements. For example, the pink wire can be used as a momentary start button, providing power only when pressed, which is useful for functions like vacuum relief.
Video Description: This video provides a detailed explanation of the wiring process for the NEWTRY crane remote control, including identifying the power, ground, trigger, and directional wires. It also discusses options for wiring the start/stop functions for different operational needs.
