3.1 – VERIFYING THE SUITABILITY OF THE GATE AND ENVIRONMENT
- Ensure that the mechanical structure of the gate is suitable for automation and complies with local standards; consult the technical data appearing on the gate’s label. This product cannot automate a gate that is not already secure and efficient; moreover, it cannot resolve defects caused by improper installation of the gate or poor maintenance of the latter.
- Manually move the gate leaves in the two directions (open/closed) and make sure that the movement takes place with a constant friction at every point along its course (there should be no points requiring more nor less effort).
- If a gate leaf includes an access door, make sure that it does not obstruct normal gate movement; mount a suitable interlock system if necessary.
- Manually bring the door of the gate into any position then leave it closed and make sure that it does not move.
- Check that there is sufficient space where the gearmotors are installed to allow for effecting a manual release manoeuvre.
- Check that the installation surfaces of the various devices are solid for guaranteeing a stable anchorage and that they are protected and guarded against accidental knocks. For the photocells, choose a flat surface capable of guaranteeing proper alignment of the pair (Tx and Rx).
3.2 – VERIFYING THE PRODUCT’S APPLICATION LIMITS
Before proceeding with the installation, carry out the following checks and
verify the ‘Product technical characteristics’ (Paragraph 3.3):
- Check that the estimated durability is compatible with the intended use (Paragraph 9.9.3).
- Ensure that all limitations, conditions and warnings appearing in this manual can be fully observed.

3.4 – PRE-INSTALLATION WORKS
Consult Fig. 2 to define the approximate installation position of each device
mounted on the system; the various elements are positioned according to a
standard and customary layout.
Get all the tools and equipment required to complete the job; check that they
are in good condition and that they conform to the local safety provisions.
Laying of electrical cables:
-
Observe Fig. 2 to understand how the various devices should be connected to the control unit and which terminals should be used for each connection.
Only **** devices adopting the same technology can be connected to the ECSbus. The ECSbus system allows for connecting multiple devices together using – between one device and the next – a single “bus” cable, with 2 internal
electrical conductors.
The connection between the devices can have a “cascade”, a “star” or a “mixed” configuration, between the first two. -
Observe Fig. 2 to understand how to position the electrical cables in the environment (it is advisable to draw on paper a similar layout, adapting it to the relevant requirements).
-
Read Table 2 to determine the type of cables to be used: each **** cable must not exceed the stated maximum length.
TABLE 2 – Types of electrical cables (see Fig. 2)
Connection| Type of cable| Maximum admissible length
A| 230 VAC 50/60 Hz power supply| 3 x 1.5 mm2 (not supplied)| 30 m *
B| Flash flashing light output| 2 x 0.5 mm2| 20 m
C| Radio aerial| RG58-type shielded cable| 20 m (recommended < 5 m)
D| ECSbus Input / Output| 2 x 0.5 mm2| 20 m **
E| Stop input| 2 x 0.5 mm2| 20 m **
F| SbS (Step-by-Step) input| 2 x 0.5 mm2| 20 m **
G| Motors M1 and M2 output| 3 x 1 mm2| 10 m
* it is possible to use a power cable longer than 30 m, provided that it
has a larger gauge (for example, 3 x 2.5 mm2) and is equipped with an earthing
device, near the automation.
** For the ECSbus (1) cables and the Stop and SbS inputs, it is also
possible to use a single cable with multiple internal conductors, to group
multiple connections: for example, the Stop and SbS inputs can be connected to the KS100 selector with a cable measuring 4 x 0.5 mm2.
(1) CAUTION! – The ECSbus cables must be positioned in different raceways with respect to the motor cables.
CAUTION! – The cables used must be suited to the installation environment; for example a cable of type H03VV-F for indoor envi – ronments, or type H07RN-F for outdoor environments.
3.5 – INSTALLING THE ARIA GEARMOTORS model 200M/400M and CONTROL UNIT model CLB 202/203
- All installation operations must be made with the system disconnected from the power supply. If the back-up battery is present, it must be disconnected
- Incorrect installation may cause serious physical injury to those working on or using the system.
- Prior to starting, carry out the pre-installation checks stated under Paragraph 3.1.
- For the system’s correct operation, it is necessary to include mechanical stops (not provided with the kit) on the ground or wall, positioned at the maximum opening and closing points of the gate leaf.
3.5.1 – INSTALLING THE ARIA GEARMOTORS 200M/400M
- Verify the gearmotor’s overall dimensions (Phase 01 – Fig. 3).
- Choose the direction of the bracket to be used based on position “C” (Phase 02 – Fig. 3).
- Choose position “A” in Table 1 (Phase 03 – Fig. 3).
- Choose the installation position of the front and rear brackets, then temporarily fasten the rear bracket (Phase 04 – Fig. 3). Check that the supporting surface is solid.
- If there is no closing stop on the ground, insert the closing limit switch as shown in Phase 05 – Fig. 3.
- Fasten the gearmotor to the front bracket (Phase 06 – Fig. 3).
- Position the gearmotor on the rear bracket and secure it with the washer, screw and nut (Phase 07 – Fig. 3).
- Move the gearmotor until the front bracket rests against the gate leaf, then lock the latter temporarily (Phase 08 – Fig. 3).
- Manually release the gearmotor (Phase 09 – Fig. 3).
- Manually perform a few gate leaf opening and closing manoeuvres: check that the nut slides without any particular friction along the gearmotor’s rolled ball screw. If necessary, adjust the gearmotor’s limit switch by loosening it with the appropriate Allen key and shifting it to the desired position (Phase 10 – Fig. 3).
- Fasten the brackets permanently on the basis of the type and material of the gate leaf/column (Phase 11 – Fig. 3).
- Manually lock the gearmotor (Phase 12 – Fig. 3).
- Repeat the entire operation for the other gearmotor.
3.5.2 – INSTALLING THE CLB 202/203 CONTROL UNIT
- Install the control unit in an area protected against potential impacts and close to the gate, in order to reduce the overall length of the cables
- Remove the cover by prying with a screwdriver on the opening at the bottom; slide it a few centimetres then lift it from the bottom (Phase 01 – Fig. 5)
- Lay the duct for routing the electric cables so that they can be inserted from the lower section of the control unit
- Drill a hole in the bottom of the control unit and use suitable fittings to fasten the cable ducts (Phase 02 – Fig. 5)
- Open two holes on the bottom using a screwdriver and mark the drilling points using the bottom for reference; next, drill the wall using a percussion drill with 6 mm bit and insert 6 mm wall plugs. Lastly, fasten the bottom with the relative screws (Phase 03 – Fig. 5)
- Before closing the control unit, make the electrical connections: see Chapter 4 and Fig. 7
- To close the cover see Fig. 8.
At this point, it is possible to install the accessories pertaining to the system: for photocells PH200 > Par. 3.6 (Fig. 6) – for flashing light FL200Par. 3.7 (Fig. 7). For other optional accessories, consult the respective instruction manuals.
3.6 – INSTALLING THE PHOTOCELLS model PH200 (Fig. 5)
- **** position each photocell 40/60 cm above the ground • position them on the opposite sides of the zone to be protected • position them as close as possible to the gate (maximum distance = 15 cm) • a tube for passing the cables must be present in the fastening point
- orient the TX transmitter towards the central zone of the RX receiver (allowed misalignment: maximum 5°) For the installation procedure see Fig. 5.
3.7 – INSTALLING THE FLASHING LIGHT model FL200 (Fig. 6)
- The flashing light must be positioned near the gate in a clearly visible position. It can be fasted to a horizontal or vertical surface.
- For connection to the Flash terminal, no polarity needs to be observed; instead for connection of the shielded aerial cable, it is necessary to connect the cable and sheath as shown in Fig. 7.
Choose the most suitable position in which to install the flashing light: it must be positioned near the gate in a clearly visible position. It can be fasted to a horizontal or vertical surface.
For the installation procedure see Fig. 6.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
4.1 – ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO THE CONTROL UNIT (Fig. 7)
01. Connect the various kit devices and any other components designed for
being used on the system (optional and not included in the package) to the
control unit terminals (Fig. 7): for all accessories it is not necessary to
observe any polarity, with the exception of the shielded aerial cable which
must be connected with the cable and sheath as shown. To connect the
gearmotors refer to the detail in Fig. 8.
4.2 – POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION
- For operational and programming tests of the automation, use the cable supplied, inserting the plug into an electrical socket. If the socket is a long way from the automation, an extension may be used in this phase.
- For the testing and commissioning phase of the automation (definitive connection) the control unit must be connected permanently to the mains power, by replacing the cable supplied with one of suitable length.
CAUTION! – The final connection of the system to the mains power or
replacement of the cable supplied MUST be performed exclusively by a qualified
and electrician, in compliance with local safety standards and the following
instructions.
– For installation outdoors, the entire cable must be protected with a
protective tube; alternatively, the cable can be replaced with a type H07RN-F
cable.
– The power line must be equipped with a device that ensures complete
disconnection of the mains power to the automation. The disconnection device
must have contacts with a sufficient gap to ensure complete disconnection,
under the Category III overvoltage conditions, in accordance with the
installation instructions. If necessary, this device guarantees quick and safe
disconnection from the mains power and therefore must be positioned in sight
of the automation. If located in a concealed position, it must be equipped
with a system that prevents inadvertent or unauthorised reconnection of power,
to avoid potential hazards.
PROGRAMMING
5.1 – CONTROL UNIT KEYS
The control unit has three programming keys with their respective LEDs: keys
P1, P2, P3 and LEDs L1, L2, L3 (Fig. 9)
P1 = radio transmitter memorisation
P2 = slow/fast movement speed selection (Par. 5.6.1)
P3 = semi-automatic/automatic operating cycle selection (Par. 5.6.2)
5.2 – PRELIMINARY CHECKS
After powering up the control unit, a few straightforward checks should be
carried out:
- Check on the control unit (Fig. 10) that the ECSbus led flashes normally (roughly one flash each second).
- On the Tx and Rx photocells (Fig. 11) check that the SAFE led flashes: the type of flash is unimportant as it depends on other factors; however, it is important that the led is not always off or always lit.
- If all these checks are non-conforming, disconnect the power supply to the control unit and check the relevant connections of the cables. Other useful information is contained in Chapters 9.9 and 10.
5.3 – MEMORISATION OF CONNECTED DEVICES
On completion of the preliminary checks (Par. 5.2), the control unit must be
made to recognise the devices connected on the ECSbus and Stop terminals.
- On the control unit (Fig. 12) press and hold button P2 for at least 3 seconds then release it.
- Wait a few seconds for the control unit to complete the device learning phase.
- On the control unit (Fig. 13), at the end of the recognition procedure, the Stop led must remain lit and led L2 must turn off. The ECSbus led must flash once each second. If led L2 flashes = error (see Chapter 10).
**** Whenever a photocell is added to or removed from the system, the recognition procedure for the connected devices must be repeated.
5.4 – MEMORISATION OF GATE LEAF OPENING AND CLOSING ANGLES After recognition of the devices (Par. 5.3), the control unit must recognise the opening angles of the leaves. In this phase the system reads the leaf opening angle from the mechanical closing stop to the mechanical opening stop. The presence of fixed and sufficiently strong mechanical stops is essential. 01. Manually release the gearmotors (Fig. 14) and bring the gate leaves to midway of their path so that they are free to open and close, then lock the motors (Fig. 15).
02. On the control unit (Fig. 16) press and release key P3: wait for the
control unit to perform the memorisation phase: closure of motor M1 up to the
mechanical stop, closure of motor M2 up to the mechanical stop, opening of
motor M2 and of motor M1 up to the mechanical opening stop; full closure of M1
and M2.
If the first manoeuvre of one or both of the gate leaves is not a
closing movement, press and release key P3 on the control unit (Fig. 16) to
stop the memorisation phase and reverse the polarity of the motor/s that
performed the opening, by inverting the brown and blue wires (Fig. 17).
If the first motor to perform the closing manoeuvre is not M1, press and
release key P3 on the control unit (Fig. 16) to stop the memorisation phase
and invert the motor terminals on the control unit (Fig. 18).
If any device (photocells, keypad, manual pressing of key P3, etc.)
intervenes during the memorisation phase, this phase will be immediately
stopped: it will have to be repeated entirely.
If led L3 flashes at the end of the search for memorised devices, it
means that there is an error: see Par. 9.10.3.
5.5 – MEMORISATION OF THE 1
st TRANSMITTER
The control unit incorporates a radio receiver for ECCO5 transmitters (various
models): before proceeding with the remaining steps, it is necessary to
memorise the 1 st transmitter in Mode 1 – see procedure below.
To memorise additional transmitters, see Par. 9.3.
**** Before running the memorisation procedure, it is advisable to read it
and observe the indicated times.
This procedure allows for simultaneously memorising all the transmitter keys,
by automatically pairing them to the commands shown in Table 1 below.
A transmitter memorised in Mode 1 can control only a single automation.
TABLE 1 | LED |
---|---|
Keys | Paired command |
T1| Step-by-Step (SbS)
T2| Pedestrian opening
T3| Open only
T4| Close only
T5| Not used in this application
Memorisation procedure
01. On the control unit (Fig. 19) press and hold key P1 for 3 seconds; when
led L1 switches on, release the key.
02. Within 10 seconds from releasing it, press and hold for 3 seconds any
button of the transmitter to be memorised.
If the memorisation procedure was successful, led P1 (on the control unit)
will flash 3 times.
03. To memorise other transmitters, repeat step 02 within the next 10 seconds
otherwise the memorisation phase will terminate automatically.
5.6 – BASIC ADJUSTMENTS
5.6.1 – Choosing the gate leaf manoeuvre speed
The opening and closing manoeuvre speed of the gate leaves can be either
“slow” or “fast” (the type of selection chosen is visualised by the switching
on or off of led L2 on the control unit – Fig. 20):
led L2 off = the “slow” manoeuvre speed was selected.
led L2 on = the “fast” manoeuvre speed was selected.
Procedure for selecting the desired speed
01. Press and release key P2 several times until led L2 remains lit or
switched off (Fig. 20).
5.6.2 – Choosing the operating cycle of the gate leaf manoeuvre
The type of “opening and closing” manoeuvre cycle of the gate leaves can be
either “single cycle (semi-automatic)” or “complete cycle (automatic)” (the
type of selection chosen is visualised by the switching on or off of led L3 on
the control unit – Fig. 21):
led L3 off = the “single cycle (semi-automatic)” manoeuvre cycle was selected
(with the first command the gate opens and stays open until the next command
that causes it to close).
led L3 lit = the “complete cycle (automatic)” manoeuvre cycle was selected
(with a single command the gate opens and re-closes automatically after a set
“pause time” – to adjust the latter see Par. 9.1.1).
Procedure for selecting the desired cycle
01. Press and release key P3 several times until led L3 remains lit or
switched off (Fig. 21).
TESTING AND COMMISSIONING
CAUTION! – The system must be tested by skilled and qualified personnel,
who is responsible for defining the tests adopted in relation to the risks
present, and for ensuring observance of all legal provisions, standards and
regulations, with particular reference to all requirements of the EN 13241-1,
EN 12445 and EN 12453 standards which defines the test methods for testing
gate automations.
6.1 – TESTING
- Ensure that all the instructions and warnings indicated in Chapter 1 have been strictly observed.
- Using the transmitter, test the gate’s opening and closing movements and ensure that the leaves move as intended. A number of tests should be performed to ensure that the gate moves smoothly and that there are no assembly defects, incorrect settings, or any points of friction.
- Check the operation of all the system’s safety devices one-by-one (photocells, sensitive edges, etc.) In particular, whenever a device is activated the ECSbus led (on the control unit) must emit a longer flash to confirm that the control unit has recognised the event.
- To check the photocells and make sure that there is no interference with other devices, pass a cylinder with 5 cm diameter and 30 cm length on the optical axis, first near the TX then near the RX and, lastly, at the mid-point between the two, and verify that in all these cases the device is triggered, switching from the active status to the alarm status and vice-versa; lastly, make sure that it causes the intended action in the control unit; for example: reversal of the movement during the closing manoeuvre.
- Measure the impact force as specified in the EN 12445 and EN 12453 standards. If the “motor force” control is used as an auxiliary function to reduce the impact force, test and identify the setting that obtains the best results.
6.2 – COMMISSIONING
Commissioning can only be performed after all test phases have been
successfully completed. Partial or “makeshift” commissioning is strictly
prohibited.
- Draw up the technical file of the automation which should at least include: assembly drawing (for example as in Fig. 3), wiring diagram (for example Fig. 8), risk analysis and relative solutions adopted, the manufacturer’s declaration of conformity for all the devices used.
- Affix a dataplate on the door, specifying at least the following data: type of automation, name and address of manufacturer (responsible for commissioning), serial number, year of construction and CE marking.
- Permanently attach to the gate the label supplied in the pack, regarding the procedure for manual locking/release of the gearmotor.
- Fill in the declaration of conformity and hand it to the owner of the automation (Annex 1).
- Draw up and hand to the owner of the automation the user guide (Chapter 11 – detachable insert).
- Prepare and provide the owner with the “Maintenance schedule” form, containing all maintenance instructions for all devices in the automation.
- Before commissioning the automation, ensure that the owner is properly informed of all risks and hazards still present.
MAINTENANCE
Maintenance must be performed in strict observance of the safety provisions in
this manual and according to current legislation and standards.

9.1 – ADVANCED SETTINGS
9.1.1 – Adjusting the parameters (using the transmitter memorised in Mode 1)
The transmitter can be used to set a number of control unit operating
parameters:
-
Pause time: time during which the gate leaves remain open before re-closing automatically (if the “complete cycle” function is set); see Par. 9.1.1.1
-
Pedestrian opening: partial opening mode of the gate leaves, to allow pedestrians to pass through; see Par. 9.1.1.1
-
Motor force: maximum force applied by the motor to move the gate leaves; when this value is exceeded, the control unit interprets the occurrence as an obstacle stopping the gate leaves and, consequently, inverts the direction of movement; see Par. 9.1.1.1
• Step-by-Step (SbS) function: sequence of gate leaf movements associated with each “Step-by-Step” (SbS) command; see Par. 9.1.1.1 -
SbS input configuration: adjusts the duration of the motor’s “short reversion” after the closing manoeuvre is executed, in order to reduce the final residual force; see Par. 9.1.1.2
-
Flash output configuration: adjusts the duration of the motor’s “short reversion” after the opening manoeuvre is executed, in order to reduce the final residual force; see Par. 9.1.1.2
-
Discharging of Motor 1 and Motor 2 upon closing: adjusts the duration of the motor’s “short reversion” after the closing manoeuvre is executed, in order to reduce the final residual force; see Par. 9.1.1.2
-
Discharging of Motor 1 and Motor 2 upon opening: adjusts the duration of the motor’s “short reversion” after the opening manoeuvre is executed, in order to reduce the final residual force; see Par. 9.1.1.2
The adjustment can be effected by means of any transmitter memorised in Mode 1
(as those supplied, see Paragraph 9.3.1). If there is no transmitter memorised
in Mode 1, it is possible to memorise one solely for programming purposes then
cancelling it (see Paragraph 9.4).
9.1.1.1 – Parameter adjustment procedure: Pause time – Pedestrian opening –
Motor force – Step-by-Step function
All parameters can be adjusted as desired, with the exception of the “motor
force” parameter, which requires special attention:
- Do not use high force values to compensate for abnormal friction points along the gate’s path: excessive force may adversely affect the operation of the safety system or damage the gate itself.
- If the “motor force” control is used to assist the impact force reduction system, measure the force again after each adjustment in compliance with the EN 12445 and EN 12453 standards.
- Weather conditions may affect the movement of the gate, so the latter should be readjusted periodically.
**** Before proceeding, check the parameter to be modified in Table 2 and the action to be performed:
01. On the transmitter (Fig. 22) simultaneously press and hold buttons T1 and T2 for 5 seconds then release them.
02. Within 3 seconds from releasing them, perform the action specified in Table 2 to modify the desired parameter.

9.2 – ADDING OR REMOVING DEVICES
It is possible to add or remove devices at any time to the system: if devices
are added, it is important to verify that these are perfectly compatible with
ARIA 200M/400M; for further details contact the Nice technical support
service.
9.2.1 – Memorising additional devices
The recognition operation of the devices connected to the ECSbus and to the
Stop input is usually carried out during the installation phase; but if
devices are added (or removed) subsequently, the following procedure must be
carriedout:
- On the control unit press and hold button P2 (Fig. 26) for at least 3 seconds then release it.
- Wait a few seconds until the control unit has completed the device recognition procedure: led L2 switches off. If instead it flashes, it means that there is some error – see Chapter 10.
- After adding or removing devices, the automation must be tested again (Par. 6.1).
9.3 – MEMORISING ADDITIONAL TRANSMITTERS
The control unit incorporates a radio receiver for ECCO5 transmitters (various
models). The transmitters supplied are not memorised, therefore it is first
necessary to memorise the 1st transmitter (Par. 5.5); to memorise additional
transmitters, it is possible to choose one of the procedures (Mode 1 or Mode
2) indicated below. The control unit can memorise a total of 250 units:
memorisation in Mode 1 occupies one unit of memory for each transmitter, while
the Mode 2 procedure occupies one unit of memory for each transmitter key.
** Before carrying out the memorisation procedures, we recommend reading
them and observing the indicated times.
9.3.1 – Mode 1 memorisation procedure**
This procedure allows for simultaneously memorising all the transmitter keys,
by automatically pairing them to the commands shown in Table 6.
A transmitter memorised in Mode 1 can control only a single automation.
TABLE 6
Keys| Paired command
T1| Step-by-step
T2| Partial open
T3| Open only
T4| Close only
Memorisation procedure
01. On the control unit (Fig. 28) press and hold key P1 for 3 seconds; when
led L1 switches on, release the key.
02. Within 10 seconds from releasing it, press and hold for 3 seconds any key
of the transmitter to be memorised (excluding key T5 – Fig. 27).
If the memorisation procedure was successful, led L1 (on the control unit)
will flash 3 times.
03. To memorise other transmitters, repeat step 02 within the next 10 seconds
otherwise the memorisation phase will terminate automatically.
9.3.2 – Mode 2 memorisation procedure
This procedure allows for memorising one key at a time, by pairing one of the
desired commands shown in Table 7.
A transmitter memorised in Mode 2 can control multiple automations (for
example: automation 1 controlled by key 1; automation 2 controlled by key 2;
and so forth)

Memorisation procedure
- Before proceeding, it is necessary to cancel the memory of the transmitter to be memorised – see Par. 9.4.
- In Table 7, choose the command and the number of press-down actions to be effected on the desired transmitter key.
- On the control unit (Fig. 28) press and release key P1 for a number of times corresponding to the chosen command (Table 5); led L1 must emit a number of fast flashes corresponding to the chosen command.
- Within 10 seconds, press and hold for 2 seconds the key of the transmitter to be memorised: if the memorisation was successful, led L1 (on the control unit) will flash 3 times.
- To memorise other transmitters, with the same command, repeat step 03 within 10 seconds, otherwise the memorisation phase will terminate automatically.
9.3.3 – Memorisation procedure near the control unit with two transmitters
(without using the control unit keys)
With this procedure a NEW transmitter is memorised using a second transmitter
(OLD) already memorised and operating, without using the keys of the control
unit but drawing close to the latter.
During the procedure the NEW transmitter is memorised in the same way that the
OLD transmitter was memorised (Mode 1 or Mode 2).
• Procedure with OLD transmitter memorised in Mode 1:
- Draw near the control unit with the two transmitters: wait **** 1 second between two successive steps.
- On the NEW transmitter, press and hold any key for at least 8 seconds then release it.
- On the OLD transmitter, press and hold any key to be copied for at least 2 seconds then release it.
- On the OLD transmitter, press and hold any key to be copied for at least 2 seconds then release it.
- On the OLD transmitter, press and hold any key to be copied for at least 2 seconds then release it.
- On the NEW transmitter, press and hold any key to be memorised for at least 5 seconds then release it.
Repeat the procedure for each transmitter to be memorised.
• Procedure with OLD transmitter memorised in Mode 2:
- Draw near the control unit with the two transmitters: wait 1 second between two successive steps.
- On the NEW transmitter, press and hold the key to be memorised for at least 8 seconds then release it.
- On the OLD transmitter, press and hold the key to be copied for at least 2 seconds then release it.
- On the OLD transmitter, press and hold the key to be copied for at least 2 seconds then release it.
- On the OLD transmitter, press and hold the key to be copied for at least 2 seconds then release it.
- On the NEW transmitter, press and hold the key to be memorised for at least 5 seconds then release it.
Repeat the procedure for each transmitter to be memorised.
9.4 – DELETING THE MEMORY OF THE INDIVIDUAL TRANSMITTER FROM THE CONTROL
UNIT’S MEMORY
This procedure allows for cancelling a single transmitter (memorised in Mode
- or only one of its keys (memorised in Mode 2): it is necessary to arrange the transmitter to be cancelled and simultaneously be able to access the control unit (before proceeding, open the gearmotor – Fig. 9).
• Procedure with transmitter memorised in Mode 1:
01. On the control unit (Fig. 29) press and hold key P1 until the end of the
procedure.
02. When led L1 lights up, while keeping key P1 pressed, also press and hold
any key of the transmitter to be cancelled, until led L1 flashes 5 times, then
release both keys.
Repeat the procedure for each transmitter to be cancelled.
• Procedure with transmitter memorised in Mode 2:
- On the control unit (Fig. 29) press and hold key P1 until the end of the procedure.
- When led L1 lights up, while keeping key P1 pressed, also press and hold the key of the transmitter to be cancelled, until led L1 flashes 5 times, then release both keys
Repeat the procedure for each transmitter to be cancelled.
9.5 – COMPLETE DELETION OF THE RADIO MEMORY
This procedure allows for cancelling ALL memorised transmitters: the procedure
must be carried out on the control unit (before proceeding, open the cover of
the gearmotor – Fig. 9).
- On the control unit (Fig. 29) press and hold key P1.
- Check that led L1 lights up for 4/5 seconds, that it switches off then flashes 3 times.
- Release key P1 precisely at the 3 rd flash.
- Check that led L1 emits very fast flashes.
- Check that led L1 emits 5 slow flashes = deletion completed.
9.6 – INSTALLING THE BACK-UP BATTERY (model PR100)
CAUTION! – The electrical connection of the back-up battery to the
control unit must be made exclusively after completing all the installation
and programming stages, as the battery is an emergency power supply.
To install the back-up battery and connect it to the control unit, see Fig. 30
and consult the respective instruction manual.
When the automation is powered by the back-up battery, 60 seconds after a
manoeuvre is completed the control unit automatically switches off the ECSbus
output (and all devices connected to it), the Flash output and all LEDs (with
the exception of the ECSbus led, which flashes more slowly): this automatic
switching off is the “Standby” function.
Subsequently, when the control unit receives a command, the normal operating
mode is restored with a short delay; this function is used to reduce
consumption (very important when the automation is powered by a battery)
9.7 – INSTALLING THE SOLAR POWER SYSTEM KIT model SOLEKIT
CAUTION! – When the automation mechanism is powered exclusively by the
solar power supply system, IT MUST NOT BE POWERED by the electricity grid at
the same time.
To connect the SOLEKIT solar power supply system to the control unit, see Fig.
31 and consult the relevant instruction manual.
9.8 – DIAGNOSTICS AND DEVICE SIGNALS
Certain devices are configured to display messages to identify their operating
status or any anomalies.
9.8.1 – Photocell signals
The photocells contain a SAFE led (Fig. 32) that allows for verifying their
operating status at any time: see Table 8.
TABLE 8
SAFE led (Fig. 32)| Status| Action
Off| The photocell is not powered or is faulty| Check that the voltage
on the photocell terminals is around 8–12 VDC; if the volt- age is correct,
the photocell is probably faulty
3 quick flashes and 1
second pause
| Device not recognised by the control unit| Repeat the recognition procedure
on the control unit. Check that all pairs of pho- tocells on the ECSbus have
different addresses (consult the instruction manual of the photocells)
1 very slow flash| The RX receives an excellent signal| Normal operation
1 slow flash| The RX receives a good signal| Normal operation
1 quick flash| The RX receives a poor signal| Normal operation but check
TX-RX alignment and correct cleaning of photocell lenses
1 very quick flash| The RX receives a bad signal| At the limit of normal
operation; check TX-RX alignment and correct cleaning of photocell lenses
Always lit| The RX does not receive any signal| Check for any
obstruction between TX and RX. Check that the led on TX emits a slow flash.
Check the TX-RX alignment
9.8.2 – Flashing light signals

9.9 – SPECIFICATIONS
9.9.1 – ECSbus system
ECSbus is a system that allows for connecting ECSbus devices using just two
wires, which convey both electricity and communication signals. All the
devices are connected in parallel on the two ECSbus wires; each device is
recognised individually by the control unit, thanks to an unambiguous address
assigned to each device during installation.
Photocells and other devices adopting this system can be connected to the
ECSbus, such as safety devices, control buttons, indicator lights etc. For
information on ECSbus devices, consult the Nice Home range product catalogue
or visit the website www.niceforyou.com Through a
recognition procedure the control unit recognises one-by-one all the devices
connected and this enables it to detect with extreme precision all possible
anomalies during the automation’s normal operation. For this reason, whenever
a device connected to the ECSbus is added or removed, it is necessary to
repeat the recognition procedure for these additional devices (Par. 9.2.1).
9.9.2 – Stop input
The Stop input causes the immediate stoppage and a brief inversion of the
manoeuvre; both devices with normally open (NO) contacts and devices with
normally closed (NC) contacts can be connected to this input, as well as
devices with 8.2 kΩ constant resistance (e.g. sensitive edges). With suitable
arrangements, multiple devices – even of different type – (read Table 11) can
be connected to the Stop input.
TABLE 11
2nd-type device:| | 1st-type device:
NO| NC| 8.2 k W
NO| In parallel ( Note 2 )| ( Note 1 )| In parallel
NC| ( Note 1 )| In series ( Note 3 )| In series
8.2 k W| In parallel| In series| ( Note 4 )
Note 1: the NO and NC combination is possible by wiring the 2 contacts in
parallel, while making sure that a 8.2 kΩ resistor is connected in series with
the NC contact (therefore, it is also possible to combine 3 devices: NO, NC
and 8.2 kΩ).
Note 2: multiple NO devices can be connected in parallel to each other without
any quantity limit.
Note 3: multiple NC devices can be connected in series to each other without
any quantity limit.
Note 4: only 2 devices with 8.2 kΩ constant resistance output can be connected
in parallel; if required, multiple devices must be connected in “cascade” mode
with a single 8.2 kΩ termination resistance.
CAUTION! – If the Stop input is used to connect devices with safety
functions, only the devices with 8.2 kΩ constant resistance output guarantee
Category 3 safety against faults.
Similarly to the ECSbus, the control unit recognises the type of device
connected to the Stop input when the recognition procedure is carried out.
Subsequently, the system triggers a STOP when any variation occurs with
respect to the recognised status.
9.9.3 – Product durability
Durability is the average economic lifespan of the product. The durability
value is strongly influenced by the degree of severity of the manoeuvres, in
other words, the sum of all factors that contribute to product wear (Table
10). To estimate the life span of your automated device, proceed as follows:
01. Add up all the values of the entries in Table 12;
02. In Graph 1, from the value obtained above, trace a vertical line until it
intersects the curve; from this point trace a horizontal line until it
intersects the line of the “manoeuvre cycles”. The value obtained is the
estimated lifetime of your product.
The durability values specified in the graph are only obtainable if the
maintenance schedule is strictly observed (Chapter 7). The lifetime is
estimated on the basis of design calculations and the results of tests
performed on prototypes. Being only an estimate, it does not constitute any
form of guarantee on the actual lifespan of the product.
Example of durability calculation: automation of a gate with a door 1.5 m long
with a weight of 220 kg, installed in a windy area. Table 1 shows the
“severity indices” for this type of installation: 10% (“Door length”), 20%
(“Door weight”) and 15% (“Installation in windy area”). These indicators must
be added together to obtain the overall severity index, which in this case is
45%.
With the value identified (45%), look at the horizontal axis of Graph 2
(“severity index”), and identify the value corresponding to the number of
“manoeuvre cycles” our product will be able to perform in its lifespan, about
55,000 cycles.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Table 15 contains useful information to help solve any malfunctions that may occur during installation or in case of a fault.
TABLE 15
Symptoms| Probable cause and possible solution
The radio transmitter does not emit any signal and the corresponding led
fails to light up| Check the batteries: if they are flat, replace them
(consult the transmitter’s instruction manual).
The manoeuvre fails to start and the ECSbus led on the control unit does
not flash| • Check that the power cable is correctly inserted in the
power outlet.
• Check the fuses; if they have tripped, determine the cause of the fault and replace them with others of the same type: see Fig. 33.
|
The manoeuvre fails to start and the
automation’s flashing light is off
| Check that the command is actually received. If the command reaches the SbS input, the relevant SbS
led lights up; if a transmitter is used, the ECSbus led must emit 2 long flashes.
The manoeuvre fails to start and the automation’s flashing light emits a few flashes| • Check that the Stop input is active (in other words, that the Stop led is lit). Should this not be the case, check the device connected to the Stop input.
• The photocells test (which the control unit performs at the start of each manoeuvre) failed: check the photocells, by verifying their status in Table 8.
The manoeuvre starts but is immedi- ately followed by a reverse run com-
manded by the control unit| The programmed “motor force” setting is too low
to move the gate. Check whether there are any obsta- cles obstructing the
gate’s movement and, if necessary, select a higher force as described in Par.
9.1.1.
The manoeuvre is carried out but the
flashing light is not working
| During the manoeuvre, check that the Flash terminal of the flashing light is powered (being intermittent, the voltage value is irrelevant: roughly 10–30 V ); if it is powered, the problem is due to the lamp not working (consult the flashing light’s instruction manual to replace it).

USER MANUAL (to be delivered to the end user)
This user guide should be stored and handed to all user’s of the automation.
11.1 – WARNINGS
- Monitor the gate while it is moving and keep at a safe distance until it is fully open or closed; do not transit through it until the gate is fully open and stopped.
- Do not let children play near the gate or with its commands.
- Keep the transmitters away from children.
- Suspend the use of the automation immediately as soon as you notice something abnormal in the operation (noises or jolting movements); failure to follow this warning may cause serious danger and accidents.
- Do not touch moving parts.
- Regular maintenance checks must be carried out by qualified personnel according to the maintenance plan.
- Maintenance or repairs must only be carried out by qualified technical personnel.
- Send a command with the safety devices disabled: If the safety devices do not work properly or are out of order, the gate can still be operated. 01. Activate the gate control with the transmitter or the devices connected to the SbS terminal. If the safety devices give the enable signal, the gate opens normally; otherwise, reattempt within 3 seconds and keep the control activated. 02. After approximately 2 seconds the gate will start moving in the “man present” mode, that is, so long as the control is kept activated the gate will keep moving; as soon as the control is released the gate will stop. If the safety devices are out of order, arrange to repair the automation as soon as possible.
11.2 – Manually releasing and locking the gearmotor
ARIA gearmotors (models 200M/400M) are equipped with a mechanical system that
allows for opening and closing the gate manually. Manual operation must be
performed in the case of a power outage or in the event of anomalies affecting
the system. In case of a power outage, a back-up battery can be used (model
PR100 – not supplied) (see Chapter 9 – Further information, or the relevant
instruction manual). In the event of a gearmotor fault, it is still possible
to try release the motor to check whether the fault lies in the release
mechanism.
11.3 – User-admissible maintenance operations
The operations that the user must carry out periodically are listed below:
- Disconnect the power supply.
- Check for any deterioration in automation system components, paying special attention to erosion or oxidation of the structural parts. Replace any parts which are below the required standard.
- . Check that all screw fasteners are properly tightened.
- Check that the nut and worm screw are adequately greased.
- Check the state of wear of all moving parts and replace any worn components.
- Connect the power supplies up again, and run all the tests and checks described in Chapter 5.
- Cleaning of surfaces: use a slightly damp (not wet) cloth. Do not use substances containing alcohol, benzene, thinners or other flammable substances; the use of these substances may damage the devices and cause fires or electric shocks.
For all other equipment in the system, refer to the respective user manuals.
11.4 – Replacing the transmitter battery
If, when a key is pressed, the relevant led turns on then immediately fades
and turns off, it means that the battery is completely flat and should be
immediately replaced.
If instead the led turns on only for a moment, it means that the battery is
partially flat; the key must be kept pressed for at least half a second for
the transmitter to attempt to send the command.
**** Batteries contain polluting substances: do not dispose of them together
with common waste but adopt the methods envisaged by the local regulations.
