Frequently Asked Questions - ELVOX EK01 Vimar

What to do if the automation does not work at all?
Check the mains power supply, the fuses (F1, F2, F3), the diagnostic LEDs (STOP, STPA, FOTO must be on) and dip switch 2-1 if the limit switches are not connected.
How to program the gate travel in quick mode?
Bring the gate to 1 m from the closed position, hold P3 for 2 s (red LED flashes slowly), release, then press APCH. The gate performs a complete cycle and the travel is saved.
How to program a new remote control?
Press P2 for about 2 s (green LED DL12 flashes slowly), release, then press the remote control button. The LED turns on steady for 2 s to confirm. Max capacity 200.
Why does the gate stop and reverse as soon as it starts?
The motor torque is probably insufficient. Increase the power with trimmer TR2.
How to adjust the slowdown speed?
Use trimmer TR3. If the gate stops and reverses during slowdown, increase the value.
What to do if the remote control does not work?
Check the remote control batteries and the diagnostic LEDs (STOP, STPA, FOTO must be on). If the memory is full, delete an old remote control.
How to enable automatic closing?
Set dip switch 1-1 to ON. The closing time is adjusted with trimmer TR5 (1 to 120 seconds).
What do the flashes of LED DL12 mean?
2 flashes = phototest failure, 3 = motor problem, 4 = encoder problem, 5 = EEPROM error, 6 = limit switch timeout, 7 = fuse F2 blown, 8 = motor overcurrent.
How to connect a resistive sensitive edge?
Set dip switches 1-4 and 1-7 to ON. Connect the edge between COM and STPA with an 8.2 kΩ resistor in parallel.
Can I use the board without limit switches?
Yes, set dip switch 2-1 to ON to disable the limit switch inputs. Make sure safety inputs are jumpered if not used.

After powering up the control unit the DL12 LED comes on for a second. Check the LEDS for diagnosis of the inputs, STOP, PHOTO and STPA must be on. Should one of the safety inputs (PHOTO, STOP, STPA) not be used, insert a jumper between COM and the input not used.

6- Quick programming

Procedure for facilitated gate travel programming:

N.B. Before starting programming, check the dip switch 2-2 (OFF opening to left, ON opening to right)

Vimar ELVOX EK01 - 6- Quick programming - 1

text_image OPENING OPENING OPENING DIP 2 ON 1 2 DIP 2 ON 1 2 DIP 2
  • Move the gate to approximately 1 metre from closing.
  • Keep button P3 pressed for 2 seconds (the red DL12 LED starts flashing slowly), release button P3.
  • Press the AP/CH button, the gate rests against the mechanical stop on closing, to then start again with opening at reduced speed.
  • On reaching the mechanical stop when opening, the gate starts again with closing to the mechanical stop.
  • The DL12 LED turns off, the control unit has saved the travel of the gate, aligning with the default parameters, with a distance for slowing down of 50 cm when opening and 75 cm when closing, before the mechanical stops.

If, during programming, the operations are reversed, do not change the wiring of the electric motor (terminal 1 and 2), but check the dip switch 2-2 (OFF opening the gate to the left, ON opening the gate to the right).

N.B.: If the wires of the electric motor power supply are reversed, with the opening command the control unit signals the error via the DL12 LED blinking and the flashing light (see error message table).

Procedure for saving a remote control:

  • Press the P2 button for approximately 2 seconds, the DL12 LED with a green light flashes slowly, release button P2.
  • The control panel is waiting to learn a remote control (timeout 20 seconds).
  • Press the button on the remote control to be saved, the DL12 LED illuminates with a steady green light for approximately 2 seconds, to then switch off.

Repeat the same procedure to save other remote controls. The maximum capacity is 200 remote controls.

On reaching the maximum capacity (200 radio controls) being saved on the remote control (the green DL12 LED flashes), on pressing the button of the new transmitter to be saved, the green DL12 LED makes 3 quick flashes.

N.B.: The first saved remote control configures the control panel to accept only remote controls with a rolling code or only remote controls with a fixed 12-bit code.

7-Complete programming

Customized travel programming

N.B. Before starting programming, check the dip switch 2-2 (OFF opening to left, ON opening to right).

  • Move the gate to approximately 1 metre from closing.
  • Keep button P3 pressed for 4 seconds (the red DL12 LED starts flashing rapidly), release button P3.
  • Press the AP/CH button, the gate rests against the mechanical stop on closing, to then start again with opening.
  • Before the gate gets to be fully open, press the AP/CH button and the control unit will save the point for starting to slow down when opening
  • The gate continues slowing down as far as the mechanical stop, to then restart with closing
  • Before the gate gets to be fully closed, press the AP/CH button and the control unit will save the point for starting to slow down when closing
  • The gate continues slowing down as far as the mechanical stop, to then restart with opening
  • Press the AP/CH button to fix the space for pedestrian opening (when controlling with the Aped input the gate opens by the space set here), the gate starts closing, as far as the mechanical stop.
  • The control unit saves the set travel and the DL12 LED goes out, the procedure for programming the travel is successfully concluded.

Save the remote control button to control the AP/CH input: press the P2 button until the DL12 LED with a green light begins to flash slowly, release the button and press the button on the remote control to save, the DL12 LED comes on with a green light for 1 second to confirm saving. To save other radio controls, repeat the above procedure.

Save the remote control button to control the APED input: press the P2 button until the DL12 LED with a green light begins to flash quickly, release the button and press the button on the remote control to save, the DL12 LED comes on with a green light for 1 second to confirm saving the remote control button for operating pedestrian opening. To save other radio controls, repeat the above procedure.

To delete a saved remote control: press the P2 button until the DL12 LED with a green light begins to flash very quickly, release the button and press the button on the remote control to delete, the DL12 LED comes on with a green light for 1 second to confirm deleting the remote control button. To save other radio controls, repeat the above procedure.

To delete all the remote controls: cut off the power to the control panel, also disconnect any batteries.

Press and hold down the button P2, reconnect the power supply to the control panel without releasing the button P2 until the DL12 LED goes out

The maximum capacity is 200 radio controls, on reaching the maximum capacity being saved on the remote control (the green DL12 LED flashes), on pressing the button of the new transmitter to be saved, the green DL12 LED makes 3 quick flashes to indicate the memory is saturated.

N.B. The first saved remote control configures the control panel to accept only remote controls with a rolling code or only remote controls with a fixed 12-bit code.

8 - Programmable functions:

The table shows the functions that can be activated via the dip switches, the control unit reads the dip switches with the gate stationary on closing:

Dip switch numberStatus of dip switchDescription
DIP 1-1 OFF Automatic closing function off
DIP 1-1 ON Automatic closing function on
DIP 1-2 OFFCondominium function on (during gate opening it is not possible to stop the movement with the remote control or AP/CH inputs)
DIP 1-2 ON With each command the gate: opens, stops, closes, stops
DIP 1-3 OFF Pre-flashing off
DIP 1-3 ON Pre-flashing on, before the gate moves the flashing light comes on for 3 seconds
DIP 1-4 OFF STPA input as internal photocell
DIP 1-4 ON STPA input as sensitive edge
DIP 1-5 OFF Photo-test function off
DIP 1-5 ON Photo-test function on (photocell checking with each command) see paragraph 4.6.3
DIP 1-6 OFF Second radio channel associated with pedestrian gate opening
DIP 1-6 ON Second radio channel associated with activation for 1 second of 2can output (terminal 3 and 4)
DIP 1-7 OFF Sensitive edge with normally closed contact
DIP 1-7 ON Resistive sensitive edge, normally open contact with balancing resistance of 8.2 K Ohm in parallel
DIP 1-8 OFF Close immediately function off
DIP 1-8 ONEnables the close immediately function (the photocell tripping takes the automatic closing time to 5 seconds, from its disengagement)
DIP 2-1 OFF Limit switch inputs used
DIP 2-1 ON Limit switch inputs not used
DIP 2-2 OFF For opening the gate to the left
DIP 2-2 ON For opening the gate to the right

Adjustment trimmer

Trimmer Description
TR1
TR2 Force (adjusts the motor torque)
TR3 Slowdown speed
TR4 Cycle speed
TR5 Automatic closing time (adjustable from 1 to 120 seconds)

The error messages are displayed by the DL12 LED and the flashing light (terminal number 8 and 9).

Error message key:

Number of flashes Description
2 Photocell test failed (incorrect wiring or photocells busy)
3 Detected a problem in the circuit that activates the motor
4 Problem with encoder (encoder not present or electric motor wiring reversed)
5 Serious error on EEPROM (U2 component missing or damaged)
6 The travel end time has elapsed (U2 component missing or damaged)
7 F2 fuse blown
8 Motor overcurrent error

At the end of programming check the automatic gate system works properly by simulating the photocells and sensitive edges tripping. In the event of malfunctioning, check the wiring, the dip switch 2-2 for selecting the direction of opening.

9 - Installing batteries

Insert the battery charging circuit in connector CN8 and connect the batteries, with battery-only operation the speed of the motor is 15% lower than the speed with mains power, the number of operations with the batteries depends on the number of photocells in the system and the length of the gate. When operating on batteries only, the AC LED is off, the 2CAN and AUX outputs are not active and the accessories are not supplied with the gate stationary.

10 - Troubleshooting:

Problem Cause Solution
The automatic gate system does not workNo mains supplyBlown fusesControl and safety inputs not workingDip switch 2-1 off and the limit switch inputs not connectedCheck the power line switchReplace the fuses with others of the same valueCheck the diagnosis LEDS (stop, STPA and photo must be on)Set dip2-1 on for operation without limit switches or connect the limit switches on terminals 17-18-19 setting dip switch 2-1 off.
You cannot save the remote controlsSafety devices openBatteries of the remote control dischargedRemote control not compatible with the first one savedReached memory saturationCheck the diagnosis LEDS (stop, STPA and photo must be on)Replace the batteries.The first saved remote control configures the control panel to save only rolling-code remote controls or only dip-switch remote controls.Delete at least one remote control or add an external receiver (maximum capacity 200 remote controls).
The remote control does not work Batteries ofthe remote control discharged Replace the batteries
You cannot enter travel programming Safety devices openCheck the diagnosis LEDS (stop, STPA and photo must be on)
As soon as the gate starts it stops and reversesMotor torque not sufficient Increase the force with the trimmer TR2
During slowdown, the gate stops and reversesSlowdown speed too low Increase the value of trimmer TR3
The gate does not stop with the limit switches tripping, where applicable The magnetic sensor cannot read the magnetMove the magnet near to the sensorCheck the LEDS of the limit switches.Check dip switch number 2-1 for limit switch presence and dip switch 2-2 for direction of gate opening.
