C) - Installation

1) Open the cover and check that the electronic unit is in good order. In case of doubt do not install the unit and ask for the intervention of qualified personnel. The container's accessories (screws, round seal, cable glands) must not be left within the reach of children since they are a potential danger.
2) Check that the electronic unit is properly fixed to its box. If not, tighten all screws or provide the missing screws.
3) Place the unit near the gate so that the system connection wires' length is reduced to the minimum.

Caution: For the unit's correct operation the wires connected to it must not be longer than 10 metres.

4) For increased weather protection we recommend to place the unit under a roof or, even better, in an enclosure having two side walls.
Wherever possible, it is advisable to install the unit at a minimum 1,5 mt level above the ground to keep it out of the reach of children.
5) Before proceeding to assembly place the container so that the side fitted with the cable glands is directed towards the ground.

Caution: Do not assemble the container on wood surfaces.

6) Lift the mobile portion of the connector and proceed to connect the unit wires as described in the following chapters.

D) - General characteristics

Power regulator

The electronic unit is pre-set for the optional connection of an accessory card called "power regulator". By means of this card the power supplied to the motor can be reduced.

Caution: In case failure or anomaly of the power regulator card the motor may operate at their maximum power value. This is why n° 7 note in the previous chapter "limits to use" must absolutely be put into practice.

Start up to maximum power

When the motor starts the unit supplies the maximum power value for approx. 1 sec. Subsequently the unit's power regulator card, if present, operates. This particular feature allows to overcome the high negative torque at the motor start.

Radio-receiver

The electronic unit contains a radio-receiver allowing remote control of the gate by means of the radio transmitter. The radio receiver operates with a self-learning logic and can store up to 12 different codes from the radio-commands. The memory contents is preserved in absence of power supply. The memory contents may be erased (total cancellation).

Blinker

The electronic card supplies an on/off control (flashing light) to the lamp. The logic of the blinking allows displaying the gate's operating.

Quick flashing light : it signals the opening phase

Slow flashing light : it signals the closing phase

Immediate closing

This procedure can be enabled or excluded. It is usually employed when the gate must close as soon as the vehicle has passed the optical barrier (photo-cell) placed along the way.

Caution: This procedure must be excluded when the gate opening is controlled by a clock.

ENGLISH

Work time

The motor work time is controlled by an digital timer. For the automation system to work properly the operating time value to be set must be slightly (min. 2 sec.) above the gate's actual work time. If any command interrupts the gate's travel before its end, the Timer stops and the elapsed time is stored in memory. Therefore the unit can determine, with a fair approximation, the partial working time necessary to the gate to end its travel. Thanks to this feature it is possible to avoid that the motor works for a long time after the end of the gate's travel, thus reducing overheating to the minimum.

Warning : In case of absence of power supply the stored position will be lost.

E) Operation modes

The unit can operate in three modes :

• Step by step
• Automatic
• Condominium

The Condominium mode is the priority operation mode. If more than one modes are selected the priority mode will be enabled.

Notice: The operation logic setting (dip switch), the work time programming and the pause time programming must be carried out only if the cycle is concluded or before it starts (with closed gate).

"Step-by-step" mode - Jumper JP1 not inserted

After the power is supplied to the electronic card the first start command determines an opening cycle. At the end of the motor work time, the gate stops. The operating cycle is completed (blinker off) and the system waits for a new start command to determine the closing cycle. If a start command is supplied when the end of travel has not been reached yet the gate stops. A new start command will cause the reversal of the motion.

"Automatic" mode - JP1 inserted, program the pause time through P3-P2 (see chapter "Setting the pause time")

After the power is supplied to the electronic card the first start command determines an opening cycle. At the end of the motor work time, the gate stops. The pause period starts (blinker OFF). At the end of the pause period the gate closes automatically. The operating cycle is complete only when the closing motion has ended. If a start command is supplied before the end of travel is reached the gate stops. A new start command will cause the gate to reverse its motion. If a start command is supplied during the pause period the operating cycle is interrupted (blinker off) and the gate does not close automatically. A further start command will determine a closing cycle.

"Condominium" mode - JP1 inserted, program the pause time through P3-P3 (see chapter "Setting the pause time")

After the power is supplied to the electronic card the first start command determines an opening cycle. At the end of the motor work time, the gate closes. The pause period starts (blinker OFF). At the end of the pause period the gate closes automatically. The operating cycle is complete only when the closing motion has ended. If a start command is supplied while the gate opens, the command will have no effect. If a start command is supplied while the gate closes, the gate will stop and reverse its motion after approx. 1.5 sec. If a start command is supplied during the pause period, the period will be reset and the automatic closure will start later.

Important : If the gate opening is controlled by a clock the “condominium” mode must be enabled.

ENGLISH

In any operation mode, the safety devices causes the following effects :

Photo-cell - Jumper JP2 not inserted : This device has effect only during the closure phase or in the pause period. If an obstacle covers the photo-cell during the closure phase, the gate stops and reverses its motion after approx. 1,5 sec. If an obstacle covers the photo-cell during the pause period this last one is reset and the automatic closure is therefore delayed.

Photostop - Jumper JP2 inserted : If an obstacle covers the photo-cell during the gate's motion (opening or closure), or during the period preceding the operating cycle's start, then the gate is temporarily stopped, until the obstacle is not removed. The blinker will light with a fixed light to signal the irregular condition. When the obstacle is removed and the photocell is freed, an opening cycle will start. If an obstacle covers the photostop during the pause period this last one is reset and the automatic closure is therefore delayed.

Erasing all stored codes

Press push-button P1 until the led LD1 goes off (about 10 seconds).

Setting the pause time

Press push-button P3 until the led DL1 lights. Let the desired pause time pass, then press push-button P3 again (the led goes off).

Setting the work time

Press push-button P2 until the gate starts opening. The opening limit switch stops the gate when it is completely opened. If no opening limit switch is connected to the motor, it will be necessary to press the P2 key again to stop the motion. After about 1 Second of pause the gate starts closing automatically until it will reach the closing limit switch. If no closing limit switch is connected to the motor, it will be necessary to press the P2 key again to stop the motion.
