DIP-switch functions

DIP Function Status Description
DIP 1 Close immediately OFF Close immediately off
ON Close immediately on:

The engagement and subsequent disengagement of the photocell when closing, while opening or during the pause time causes the gate to reclose immediately at least 3 s after full opening, regardless of the set automatic closing time.

DIP 2| Automatic closing| OFF| Automatic closing off
ON| Automatic closing on
DIP 3| Step-step logic| OFF| 2 steps: step-by-step (term. 51 and radio) with logic in 2 steps (open – close – open)
ON| Step-by-step command (term. 51 and radio) with logic in 4 steps (open – stop – close – stop

– open – stop)

DIP 4| Apartment block| OFF| Apartment block off
ON| Apartment block on (while the gate is opening, you cannot stop the movement with a radio command or with inputs 51 (step-by-step) and 52 (pedestrian).

With automatic closing on (DIP-switch 2 = ON) and the gate open, an additional step-by- step command (terminal 51 or radio command) renews the pause time and if input 51 remains engaged the control panel suspends the pause count until the input is disengaged

(for connecting any coils or a timer).

DIP 5| Slowdown distance| OFF| Slowdown distance at 10% of the travel
ON| Slowdown distance at 20% of the travel
DIP 6| Hammering| OFF| Hammering for electrical lock off
ON| Hammering for electrical lock on (required when using an electrical lock).

Activate anyway if the leaves are having difficulties during the initial opening phase, for

instance when temperatures are below zero and/or there is light friction.

DIP 7| Status of gate at reset| OFF| Status of gate closed at reset
ON| Status of gate open at reset
When the power supply is restored, a step-by-step command causes closing and if automatic closing is on (DIP-switch 2 = ON), closing occurs after the pause time
DIP 8| Photo-test| OFF| Photo-test off
ON| Photo-test on

At the start of each action, the control panel checks the operation of the photocells.

It requires specific wiring

DIP 9| Normal speed| OFF| High normal speed
ON| Low normal speed
DIP 10| Number of motors| OFF| Double swing gate leaf (M1 and M2 on)

Time setting

  • The control panel is programmed by default with the following times:
  • automatic closing: 30 s
  • offset for opening: 3 s
  • offset for closing: 6 s
  • To change the default times, follow the procedure below (the phases for installing a double swing leaf gate have a grey background; if there is a single leaf, the leaf offsets are not programmed)
  • The control panel does not need travel setting as this is automatically measured with each action. For this to happen, run a complete open-close action (it will take place at reduced speed as the control panel does not know the exact position of the leafs).
  • NOTE: In order to perform this procedure, the gate must be stationary.
  • CAUTION! THE SAFETY DEVICES ARE DISABLED WHILE CARRYING OUT THIS PROCEDURE
No. Pressing push button Phase Description
1 PROG Procedure activation Press and hold down the PROG push button

until the flashing light comes on steady, then release

the button, and the automatic gate system will now close the gate.

2| –| Leaf closing| Unless the leafs are already closed, the first action MUST be CLOSING; otherwise, cut off the power supply to the control panel and invert the cables of the motor that opens instead of closing.

N.B. DO NOT INVERT THE ENCODER CABLES.

3| –| Opening M1| M1 starts to open and the control panel starts the count of the offset for opening
4| 51| Setting the offset for opening| After the desired time, press and release button 51 to set the offset for opening (if not

pressed, after 40 s M2 will start automatically). M2 starts opening

5| –| Completion of opening| M1 and M2 continue to open at low speed until they reach the mechanical stops on opening
6| 51| Setting the pause time| With the gate stationary in the fully open position, the automatic closing time count starts, after the required length of time has passed, press and release push button 51, the control panel will save the elapsed time (max. 250 seconds)
7| –| Closing M2| M2 starts to close and the control panel starts the count of the offset for closing
8| 51| Setting the offset for closing

M1 starts closing

| After the desired time, press and release button 51 to set the offset for closing (if not pres- sed, after 130 s M1 will start automatically).
9| –| Completion of closure and end of programming| The automation completes the closure when it reaches the closing mechanical stops and the

flashing light goes out to signal that the travel programming procedure has been exited.

Note:
If you want to return the control panel to default, perform the following procedure:

  1. Disconnect the power to the control panel
  2. Press and hold the PROG button.
  3. Reconnect the power to the control panel and wait for the flashing light to come on steady.

Troubleshooting

Problem Cause Solution
The automation system does not work No mains supply Check the power

line switch
Blown fuses| Replace blown fuses with others of the same value
Control and safety inputs not working| Check the diagnosis LEDs (FCL, FOP, COSTA and STOP must be on)
You cannot save the remote controls| Safety devices open| FCL, FOP, COSTA and STOP must be on
Batteries of the remote control discharged| Replace the batteries
Remote control not compatible with the first one

saved

| The first saved remote control configures the control panel to save only rolling-code remote controls or only dip-switch remote controls
Reached memory saturation| Delete at least one remote control or add an external receiver (maximum capacity 50 remote controls)
As soon as the gate starts, it stops and reverses| Motor torque not sufficient| Increase the power via trimmer MOT 1 for motor M1 and MOT 2 for M2
Movement of one of the 2 motors is reversed| Wrong wiring| Check the motor wiring
During calibration the motor M1 starts and stops after 1 second| Encoder 1 wiring reversed with encoder 2| Check the encoder wiring
With the electrical lock the motor 1 is not able to start opening or does not close completely| Electrical lock unable to get freed| Set DIP-switch 6 in ON position (hammering on)
After a command the flashing light blinks 6 times but the gate fails to open| Photo-test check failed| Check the electrical wiring (see section 4) and DIP-switch 8 Check the alignment of the photocells
The flashing light does not work

during the movement

| No mains power supply and motors on battery operation| Check the mains power supply
The gate moves at slowdown speed| Probable 230 V AC mains failure| Run 1 complete open/close action
The gate opens one leaf at a time

with an offset of 40s

| The leaf offset has not been programmed| Return the working times to default or if necessary program

them.

The gate detects an obstacle even when it is not there| – Incorrect bracket dimensions

– Force trimmer too low

– Gate mechanics stiff

| – Check dimensions

– Raise force trimmer

– Service the gate

Closing one leaf at a time| – Previous no mains

– Reset action in case of overlapping leafs.

| Wait for the operation to be completed, the gate will be reset automatically
The leaves have difficulty during

the initial opening phase

| Temperatures below zero and/or there is light friction| Set DIP 6 to ON
