Frequently Asked Questions - ELVOX EK03.EXP Vimar

How to program a remote control for sequential opening?
Press the button P2 until the LED DL.S flashes (1st frequency). Release, then activate the remote control key within 10 seconds. The flashing light confirms learning.
How to adjust the gate travel?
Make sure the gate is closed. Press the button P1 until the LED DL.S flashes. Then follow the programming steps described in the manual. The LED DL.S turns off at the end.
What to do if the gate does not move after power on?
Check the mains power supply and fuses (F5A for 230V, F6.3A for 120V). Make sure the LEDs DL1, DL3, DL5, DL6 are on (safety inputs bridged). If the safety test fails (simultaneous flashing), check the safety devices.
How to connect photoelectric cells?
Respect polarity (+/-) for the power supply. The SCL and P.IN contacts are normally closed. Use terminals +AS and -AS for power. If not used, bridge between COM and the corresponding inputs.
How to adjust the slowdown speed?
Turn the trimmer TR4-SL counterclockwise to reduce the speed (from 30% to 80%). Turned fully clockwise, the slowdown is disabled.
How to enable automatic closing?
Set the DSW1 Dip-switch 1 to ON. Adjust the pause time with the trimmer TR1-DELAY (1 to 140 seconds).
How to delete all stored remote controls?
Cut the power to the control unit. Reconnect while holding down the button P2. Wait until the LED DL.S stops flashing. All remote controls are deleted.
How to test the safety devices (phototest)?
Set the DSW1 Dip-switch 8 to ON to enable the phototest on the P.OUT output. Wire the photoelectric cells with safety test. The activation of the safety devices will be checked automatically at the start of movement.
How to reverse the gate opening direction?
Set the DSW1 Dip-switch 7: OFF for right opening, ON for left opening. Disconnect then reconnect the control unit to apply the change.
How to diagnose a fault using the LEDs?
Check the diagnostic LEDs: DL1 (P.IN), DL3 (STOP), DL5 (SCL), DL6 (SOP) must be on in normal condition. The flashes of DL.S indicate specific errors (e.g., 2 flashes = triac fault, 3 = encoder fault, etc.). Consult the manual for the meaning.

Connecting photocells.

Observe the correct polarity for the photocell power supply. Contacts SCL and P.IN are normally closed.

The triggering of input SCL, during gate closing, inverts motion. If not used, jumper between COM and SCL. With the photocells not engaged, LED DL5 must be on.

The triggering of input P.IN, during gate closing, blocks motion until the photocells remain engaged; upon their disengagement, motion is inverted into an opening of the gate. The triggering of input P.IN, during gate opening, blocks motion until the photocells remain engaged; upon their disengagement, gate opening resumes. If not used, jumper between COM and P.IN. With the photocells not engaged, LED DL1 must be on.

Connecting sensitive edge and/or internal photocells.

With DSW2 Dip switch 1 OFF, programmable input SOP is configured as normally closed for the use of a non-resistive sensitive edge N.C. With the sensitive edge not engaged LED DL6 must be on. If not used, jumper between COM and SOP.

With DSW2 Dip switch 1 ON, programmable input SOP is configured for the use of a resistive sensitive edge 8K2. With the sensitive edge not engaged LED DL6 must be on. If not used, set DSW2 Dip switch 1 to OFF and jumper between terminal COM and SOP.

The triggering of input SOP, during closing, inverts and immediately stops motion. After the edge is disengaged, the gate remains still until a new control is given. The triggering of input SOP, during opening, inverts and immediately stops motion. After the edge is disengaged, gate closing motion resumes.

Manual tuning procedure to position the gate.

In order to perform the gate positioning manoeuvres before you begin any learning or checks, there is a function designed to move the motor, both opening and closing, in dead-man mode.

To enter this mode, press both push buttons P1 and P2 simultaneously, then LED DL.S lights up permanently to indicate dead-man tuning mode.

Release the buttons.

Push button P1 now controls opening while push button P2 controls closing, or vice-versa depending on the position of DSW1 Dip switch7.

Simply hold down one of the two push buttons to move the gate.

Exit dead-man mode by pressing both push buttons P1 and P2 simultaneously.

Selecting the direction of opening.

The control unit is equipped with dip switches to select the direction of gate opening.

If the gate opens towards the right, set DSW1 Dip switch 7 to OFF and switch off the power supply to the control unit and then back on again.

ONCE PARTIAL OPENING IS FIXED, THE GATE RESUMES CLOSING.
COMPLETE CLOSING AND THE DL.S LED TURNING OFF INDICATE THE END OF PROGRAMMING

If the gate movement turns out to be reversed, check the DSW1 dip switch 7, do not change the wiring of either the limit switch or the electric motor.

12. Testing the automatic gate system.

It is necessary to test all the accessories connected to the control unit, especially the safety devices such as the sensitive edges and photocells. Remember that the photocells reverse the movement of the gate only during closing and the sensitive edges and/or internal photocells, if engaged during opening, reverse the movement of the gate for 1.5 seconds, while if engaged when closing they fully re-open the gate.

13. Trimmer for adjustments

Trimmer Function Description Range
TR1-DELAY Pause timeWith DSW1 Dip switch 1 ON, it adjusts the amount of time during which the gate remains stationary before automatic closing.From 1 to 140 seconds, maximum, clockwise
TR2-TORQ Motor torque It adjusts the elecectromechanical motor.From 20 to 100%, maximum, clockwise
