Move your RCU safely, even without a remote control, thanks to the FAE App

The FAE App now boasts a function of particular importance to owners of RCU55, RCU75 or RCU120 remote-controlled tracked carriers. If the remote control cannot be used, it is now possible to move the vehicle using only the FAE App. This function allows tracked carriers to be moved safely and quickly, as external equipment is no longer required to transport the vehicle in the event of a block.

Specifically, the new function makes it possible to:

• Switch the diesel engine on and off, and manage its rotation speed.
• Drive and steer the vehicle, including in reverse.
• Raise or lower the attachment.
• Make the undercarriage, and therefore the track width, wider or smaller.
   

All movements are made at limited speed, in order to maximize operator safety.

This new function will come standard on all new RCU55, RCU75 and RCU120 vehicles. It is also backward compatible upon request, subject to an update to the vehicle’s software.
This new app control option comes in addition to the already robust functionality available for the RCU on the FAE App.
 

Real-time information: The app’s interface makes it possible to monitor machine operation data, like the diesel engine’s load percentage, instant fuel economy and working pressure, as well as to receive malfunction alerts.

Diagnostics: The FAE app displays failures, with a description of the malfunction and the parts involved. It also allows users to export problem reports to facilitate repairs.

Scheduled maintenance: Users receive required maintenance alerts, including the number of hours remaining until the next scheduled maintenance and a list of required maintenance work.
