There are some differences between Putzmeister boom pump remotes and Telebelt remotes.  Let’s look at them.

The early Telebelt radio functions were programmed via Tele-Teach battery, as explained by Trevelteck.  The newer “Ergonic” (single joystick) Telebelt remote controls are set up a little differently.

The Ergonic radio transmitters have no Tele-Teach buttons.  They are programmed with a Tele-Teach battery.  They are also different in that you Tele-Teach rabbit ONLY.  Do not Tele-teach snail, with the battery.  The minimums you set, in “rabbit,” will be the minimums used by “snail.”

NOTE:  Any Tele-Teach battery will work.  The older (yellow) Tele-Teach batteries have a lower amp/hour rating than the new (red) ones, and don’t last as long.  If you are using a yellow battery, make sure it is fully charged.  Use your standard battery for set-up, and then switch to the Tele-Teach battery for programming.

I know Alan has already outlined the procedure, but it bears repeating:

• Properly set the Telebelt on outriggers.  Raise the feeder and transfer and set the feeder on the ground.  Raise the boom out of the transport rest, high enough to clear mufflers and inlets.  Allow room for boom movement in all directions.
• Turn the radio off and insert the Tele-Teach battery.
• Hold the “+” AND “-” buttons in while turning the radio on.  The green transmit light will be blinking twice as fast.

Each function, e.g. slew right, has to be set for minimum and maximum.  Only one function can be set at a time.  It is necessary to be able to see the Modular Boom Control (MBC) valve while programming.  So, let’s set “slew right” on the rabbit side.

• Reset the e-stop with the horn-reset/outrigger switch.
• Set throttle up to max
• Set boom speed switch to “rabbit.”
• While watching the WBV (selector) valve, move the joystick to the right
• When the WBV moves to the boom position, stop moving the joystick farther and hold that position.
• After a slight delay, the boom should start creeping to the right.  If it moves too quickly, use slight taps on the minus (“-“) button to slow it down.  If there is no movement, use slight taps on the plus (+) button. 
• Release the stick, then move it back to the start position to check the setting.  Very often the slight taps will take you too far.
• When you are satisfied with the start point, slowly move the stick to full right, while watching the slewing valve.  The slewing valve must contact its mechanical stop AT THE SAME TIME you reach full right on the stick. 
• If it hits too soon, you have a narrow adjustment window in the stick, and the boom will be jerky. 
• If it doesn’t hit at all, you will not get full speed
• While holding the stick full right, adjust valve handle travel with the plus and minus buttons.  PAY ATTENTION TO BOOM POSITION.  If you are getting close to something, like the feeder, slew left and start again.
• After setting the maximum, recheck the minimum setting.
• Repeat for the remaining 5 functions.
• Turn the radio off.  The settings will be retained by the transmitter memory.
• Remove the Tele-Teach battery and replace it with the regular battery.

NOTE:  Telebelts manufactured after early 2011 have “teachable” feeders.  Set the horn-reset/outrigger switch to outrigger and use the battery to Tele-Teach feeder slewing and elevate in “rabbit” mode, ONLY.  User-defined mode and “snail” mode have no effect on those speeds.

Now, before you stow the outriggers, let’s set slew right in the “snail” position:

• Turn the radio on and reset the e-stop.
• Switch the boom speed control to “snail.”
• Move the stick to the right until the WBV valve engages.  The “creep” speed will be the same as it was in “rabbit.”  DO NOT attempt to Tele-Teach this minimum.  That will change the rabbit setting as well.  Center the stick.
• To set the maximum speed for snail slew right
  • Move the boom speed switch up to the user-defined position and hold it there.  It’s spring-loaded.
  • Move the joystick right until the desired maximum speed is reached and hold the stick at that position.
  • Release the boom speed switch
  • Center the joystick.  Now, even if you move the joystick all the way right, the boom will only slew to the maximum you set with user-defined.
  • If you want to change the maximum, just repeat the procedure.
  • Repeat for the other functions.
