Preliminary Checks
To ensure safety and an efficient automation make sure the following requirements are met: 1. The gate structure must be suitable for automation. 2. Make sure that the gate move properly and uniformly without any irregular friction during their entire travel. 3. The gates wheels and track must be in good condition with no bitting, no rust and must be well greased. 4. The gates should be able to be freely opened and closed before installing the gates automation system. 5. It is strongly suggested to have a gate stop installed for the open position for setup and emergency purposes.
Important Safety Information
Installer and owners should observe the following:
1. Make sure that there is sufficient space for the gate to slide open fully without interference. 2. The solar box must be installed in the area within 10 meters maximum cable distance from motor. 3. Do not change with parts or components not supplied by the manufacturer, this includes sensors, buttons, solar panels, transformers and any component not listed in the compatibility list. 4. Make sure all wiring works are correct and in good condition before connecting the battery, solar panel or transformer to the control panel. 5. Turn off the power and disconnect the battery when doing any maintenance. 6. Ensure the control panel box is free from water leakage to avoid short circuiting of the control panel. 7. Do not supply mains power directly to the motor, control box or any accessories. 8. Do not install the operating system if in doubt. Contact the manufacturer. 9. Do not cross the gate while it is operating, Safety sensors are only to prevent accidents or injuries. 10. Keep the remote controls in safe place and away from children.
Before beginning installation the manual should be read thoroughly concerning all aspects of the installation including all precautions and safety information.
Proper steps should be taken to ensure efficient and safe installation for vehicles, property and persons within the operators working radius.
The system is fitted with an over current sensing feature to assist in preventing damages, injuries and death. All precautions must be taken by the installer that adjustments are set correct based on the gates weight, height and length.

TESTING AND COMMISSIONING

Dimensions

The following tests should be run immediately after connecting Weight the battery to the control unit.

· Make sure that led “L2” (fig. 1) is on to indicate that the battery is supplying power to the system.

· Make sure that the different LEDs on the control unit confirm that it is operating properly. Note: If these conditions are not satisfied, it probably means that the battery is completely drained; in this case proceed to the next step and wait a few hours with the automation system powered by the mains before testing the operation of the battery again.

· Connect the automation system to the mains supply and check that led “L1” (fig. 1) turns on to confirm that the battery is recharging properly.

· Run at least one open/close cycle to check that the system operates properly when powered off the mains.

· Disconnect the automation system from the mains, and check that led “L2″ (fig. 1) is on; run at least one open/close cycle to check that everything is working as it should even with battery power.

· At the end of the tests, reconnect the automation to the mains.

Default is Stop

Open/Close command AP.Ch START = OPENING (always controls the gate opening) START P. = CLOSING (always controls the gate closing) This is an impulse command, that is to say that an impulse will cause the complete gate opening or closing. (Button 1 on remote/Start is open, button 2 on remote/Start.P is closing)

Manned operation PrES START = OPENING (always controls the gate opening) START P. = CLOSING (always controls the gate closing) This is a monostable command, that is to say, the gate will be opened or closed as long as the contact is closed and it will immediately stop as the contact is open

Full Timer mode oroL Using an external timer to open gate, timers latched circuit inhibits the gates closure ATTENTION: Automatic closing must be enabled This feature allows you to program time slots during the day for the gate to be open by using an external timer or other maintained command devices (e.g. magnetic loop detectors or presence detectors).

START = START (a command will cause the complete opening of the gate) START P. = PEDESTRIAN START (a command will cause the partial opening of the gate)

The gate stays open (completely or partially) while the contact is closed on input; as soon as the contact is open the pause time count down will start, after which the gate will be closed again.

NOTE: If the parameter of partial operation/pedestrian function P.APP is set to 0% = The timer connected to START P. does not cause the opening, but can inhibit the automatic closing at preset times. In all modes, inputs must be connected to devices having normally open contacts. Connect cables of device controlling the START input between terminals J1 (START) and J4 (COM) of the control unit.

This method is used for emergencies requiring the gate to be immediately be moved towards the open position. This will function the motor itself and bypasses all safety devices such as edge sensors and photocells. To activate the START input must be triggered three consecutive times by ONE second Presses with a pause in between each press of ONE second. Once more the button will be held down for the fourth press indicating an operator is present. Whilst the button is held the gate will operate towards the open position. This mode is automatically exited after 10 seconds of inactivity If the system in the Strt menu is set to StAn then the operator will open/close based on current/previous position.

Setting a Bi Parting Gate Installation (TWO motors, one set of accessories, operating together)
To set a Master and Slave system TWO syncro modules are required to be connected into the interface port of each motor unit. The syncro modules are connected to one another using a TWISTED pair, the connection is non- polarised.

Each motor unit must be configured for its own travel direction and travel time settings independently including all other motor related settings.

All the accessories settings of the systems will be set only on the MASTER motor unit, these will be relayed to the slave automatically.

If pedestrian function is used it will only partially operate the MASTER gate based on its setting.

Err9 Err10

Data could not be stored error. Fault with control board.
Motor not connected or motor driver issue on control board.
– Obstacle in sensor path – No sensor connected but sensor logic is enabled
– Command sent to open but motor is on clutch – Whilst in self learning: Magnets incorrect orientation (Sx and Dx) – Limit reader problem
Safety Edge test configured incorrectly
When an operation command is given but does not open (or partially opens) and displays error it could mean one of the following: – Motor/gate is mechanically locked – Learning of travel is not performed correctly -Encoder fault or no connection
– A setting of Logic is not compatible with another logic parameter ex. ADI is enabled but not interface module connected – If the error occurs during the self learning the Strt parameter must be set to Stan and Adi to no
Settings have been locked out by programmer module
Error 10 indicates Interface module is not connected correctly or is not connecting to the controller
