Introduction

The Foundation HD and Foundation Desk rigging controllers provides you with ability to control your

rigging system. The Foundation HD is mounted on the wall and is meant as a stationary control center,

whereas the Foundation Desk provides a portable station that you can use to move around your facility.

You can connect the Foundation Desk to any of the Foundation Power Supply stations that you have

installed, giving you flexibility to control all the motors in your system from multiple connection points.

This document will provide you with a physical specification of your controller along with basic instructions

on how to power up the controller and access the Help system on the controller.

Responsible Use of Rigging Equipment

The operation of ETC Rigging™ equipment requires responsible use and specific training. Only authorized,

trained personnel should operate rigging hoists and their associated control stations. Unauthorized use,

alteration, or use for situations other than those for which it was designed may cause damage to the

equipment, other property damage, or injury to persons, potentially of a severe nature. All safety

precautions must be observed and adhered to at all times.

Read and obey the following warning statements to ensure safe and consistent use of your ETC Rigging

system.

WARNING:

Only properly trained and authorized persons should operate ETC Rigging

systems. Operation by untrained persons may result in damage to the system,

other property damage, serious injury, or death.

WARNING:

When operating an ETC Prodigy Hoist, the user must have an unobstructed view

of the entire line set and its attached load. If the user’s view is obstructed, a

second person (spotter) MUST be used to assist the operator at all times. The

spotter must have an unobstructed view of all moving components and be able

to maintain clear communication with the operator at all times.

If a problem arises while a hoist is moving (such as a mechanical issue or

interference from other objects) stop movement immediately by releasing the

move button or using the Emergency Stop button. If a spotter sees a problem

while a hoist is moving, the spotter must signal the user to stop movement

immediately.

WARNING:

ETC Prodigy hoists must only be used to move a maximum load equal to or less

than the capacity of your specific hoist. Overloading the hoist may result in

damage to the system, other property damage, serious injury, or death.

WARNING:

ETC Prodigy hoists and Foundation control equipment should not be operated by

a user until installation and configuration have been completed by an ETC

trained and approved technician. Only ETC trained and approved technicians are

authorized to operate equipment during the installation and configuration

process.

WARNING:

ETC Prodigy hoists and Foundation control equipment are designed for the

raising and lowering of theatrical equipment within the approved hoist capacity

only. This equipment is not designed to lift or automate personnel and such use

is strictly prohibited.

WARNING:

Disconnect power before servicing this equipment.

Working Load Limit (WLL)

The Working Load Limit (WLL) of any hoist is the maximum capacity that a user may apply to a hoist or hoist

system.

All Prodigy hoists have a Working Load Limit. This is identified on the product label on the back of the hoist

and on the batten label. This limit is not the same for all hoists, so be sure to check the WLL for all hoists

in your system. Prodigy WLLs include a design-safety factor.

Additional Considerations for Use

• Do not exceed point load, Uniform Distributed Load (UDL), or Working Load Limit (WLL) for any line

set. See label on batten for POINT, UDL, and WLL.

• Point, distributed, and working load limits may be different for each hoist.

• Do not suspend persons from a hoist or any of its components.

• Do not ride on a batten.

• Do not operate equipment if unusual noises are heard coming from it.

• Do not operate equipment if unusual smells are coming from it.

• In the event of an Emergency Stop (E-stop) do not restart the equipment until the cause of the E-stop

is identified and resolved.

• Never lock or jam the operating buttons in the depressed (“on”) position. These hold down buttons

must be manned by a competent person at all times.

• Use the remote control pendant when the view of the load is obscured from this operator position

or have someone observe the load while it is moving.

• The operator must never leave the controller when a hoist is in motion.

• Log out of Foundation when a competent or qualified person is not present.

• Disconnect or lock out power to a Prodigy Powerhead or Foundation controller before servicing the

interior of the systems.

• Keep moisture away from Prodigy Powerhead and Foundation controllers.

• Always inspect and test Prodigy hoisting system and Foundation controls before each use.

• Perform regular inspection and maintenance per the instruction manual.

• The system must be inspected annually by a qualified ETC Rigging inspector.

WARNING:

NEVER exceed the Working Load Limit for any hoist.

1: Plug one end of the umbilical cable into the power cable connection port in the back of your

Foundation Desk controller and the other end into the connection port on the bottom of the

Foundation Power Supply station. For more information, refer to the

Foundation Umbilical Cable
