4.1.4 Pushbutton Operation
The F22 Series transmitters can control a large number of motions and include factory programming
customized to your application. As a result, the specific function of each button will vary depending
on the application. See Chapter 10 of this manual for descriptions of the standard and custom button
functions that are available.
Operate the transmitter by pressing the appropriate motion and auxiliary buttons for your
application. Depending on which model you select, some or all of the following types of
pushbuttons are available:

Description
Normal
(Non-Interlocked)
Non-interlocked pushbuttons are standard ON/OFF pushbuttons.
The relay is ON when the pushbutton is pressed and held, and
OFF when the pushbutton is released. A typical application for a
non-interlocked button would be a horn.

Normal
(Interlocked)
Interlocked pushbuttons are pairs of buttons programmed to
prevent simultaneous operation of certain relays. A typical
example of interlocked pushbuttons would be to prevent
simultaneous operation of relays that actuate EAST and WEST
motions of a trolley. If two interlocked pushbuttons are pressed
at the same time, then both relays are switched OFF.

at the same time, then both relays are switched OFF.
Toggle
The relay is switched ON when the button is pressed once and
released. The relay is switched OFF when the same button is
pressed again and released. A typical application for a toggle
button would be lights.

other latches the relay OFF. A typical application for on-off
buttons would be a magnet.
2-Step
A 2-step button has two ON positions: Half- and fully-depressed.
A typical application for a 2-step button is to control a 2-speed
motion; the half-depressed position could correspond to a slow
speed and the fully-depressed position could correspond to a
faster speed. They can also control variable speed drives as well,
such as “infinitely variable” type applications.
