CONNECTIONS AND OPERATION

TERMINAL BOARD M1

24V power supply
Terminals 1-2 This is the input to which the secondary winding of the transformer, powered at 24 V~ 50/60 Hz, should be connected. When power is supplied by the transformer, this is signaled by the POWER LED lighting up.

Batteries

Terminals 3-4. The control unit is designed to operate with two buffer batteries (optional item) with minimum characteristics as indicated on the table in paragraph 2. When powered, the control unit keeps the batteries charged.
The batteries begin to operate when the transformer no longer supplies power.
N.B.: power supplied by batteries should be considered an emergency the number of possible operations depends on the quality of the batteries, the structure to be moved, and time elapsing since mains power failed, etc, etc..
N.B.: observe the power polarity of the batteries

Accessories

Terminals 5-6. Output for powering external accessories (24 Vdc).
NB.: Maximum load of accessories is 500 mA.
NB.: observe power supply polarity

Gearmotor
Terminals 7-8. Connect the motor to a power supply of 24Vdc 80W max.

TERMINAL BOARD M2

Earthing
Terminal 9. Connect the mains earth cable.
N.B.: This connection is essential to ensure the control unit operates correctly

Opening limit-switch
Terminals 10-11. The status of this input is signaled by the FCA LED. Connect the limit switch activating the opening movement. The effect differs depending on the programming affected with dip-switch 3. If not using the limit switch, jump the input.

Closing limit-switch
Terminals 10-12. The status of this input is signaled by the FCC LED. Connect the limit switch activating the closing movement. If not using the limit switch, jump the input..

Flashing lamp
Terminals 13-14. Use a flashing light with a steady light (flashing is produced by the control unit) on the operating voltage of 24 Vdc 15W max. It is useful to connect it before programming, as it indicates its phases. It produces a pre-flashing steady light for 0.5 seconds when opening, and for 1.5 seconds when closing. If the automatic logic is ON, when it reaches the opening stop-point, the flashing light stays on with a steady light for 5 sec signaling to the user that it will close automatically. When the gate is open, the flashing light is OFF, and only flashes when the safety devices are engaged for a maximum time of 10 sec, after which the flashing light goes OFF even with the safety devices engaged.

Indicator-light/Courtesy light
Terminals 13-15. This terminal is in parallel with the lamp-holder on the card. Use a 24Vdc 15W max lamp. The effect differs depending on the programming affected with dip-switch 7.

TERMINAL BOARD M3

Close
Terminals 16-21. The status of this input is signaled by the CLOSE LED. Any device (e.g. push-button, radio control, etc.) can be connected to this circuit. By closing a contact, the circuit generates a pulse for the total closing of the gate.

Start
Terminals 17-21. The status of this input is signaled by the START LED. Any device (e.g. push-button, radio control, etc.) can be connected to this circuit. By closing a contact, the circuit generates a pulse for the total opening and/or closing of gate. Its operating mode is set by dip-switch 5.

Closing Photocells
Terminals 18-21. The status of this input is signaled by the FTC LED. Any safety device (e.g. photocells, safety edge, etc.) can be connected to this circuit. By opening a contact, the circuit protects the closing motion.
N.B.: If safety devices are not connected, fit a jumper at input. To install several safety devices, connect the NC contacts in series.

Stop
Terminals 19-21. The status of this input is signaled by the STP LED. Any device (e.g. push-button, pressure switch, etc.) can be connected to this circuit. By opening a contact, the circuit stops gate movement. The set cycle will restart only if a successive opening or closing pulse is received.
N.B.: If STOP devices are not connected, fit a jumper at input. To install several STOP devices, connect the NC contacts in series.

Opening Photocells
Terminals 20-21. The status of this input is signaled by the FTO LED. Any safety device (photocells, safety edges, etc.) can be connected to this circuit, which, by opening a contact, has a safety effect on the opening motion.
N. B.: If no safety devices are connected, fit a jumper at the input. To install several safety devices, connect the NC contacts in series.

FITTING A REMOTE CONTROL RECEIVER CARD

The control unit is designed to house a 5-pin radio-receiver module. Installation procedure: turn off the power and fit the module on connector M5 inside the control unit.
ATTENTION : To avoid damaging the receiver and thus irreparably jeopardizing its operation, the receiver must be fitted while observing
the direction specified in paragraph 9 (Connection layout).
This is done, by observing the receiver instructions on the memory storage of the remote control. When the remote control has been stored, it acts just like any command device on START.

N.B.: LED status is shown in bold when the automated system is closed and the control unit is powered.

PROGRAMMING

NB.: Programming must be done while the control unit is powered off the mains, through the transformer. Programming is not possible by using the buffer batteries only. This ensures that all times and functions of the control unit are correctly programmed. Programming of work times, deceleration, and electronic clutch is executed in self-learning. At this stage, leaf movement is at a slow speed. Procedure:

Release the automated system, take it to about midway through opening travel, and then lock it.
Power up the control unit (power ON is signaled by the POWER LED).
Turn switch S2 to PROG: the flashing lamp goes on at a steady light to signal programming.
Press the push-button connected to the START terminals or the remote-control, if data has been stored. The first operation the automated system performs must be CLOSING.
If the application moves to open, touch the two RESET pins with a screwdriver the control unit will immediately stop the movement generated by the automated system.
Cut power to the control unit, reverse polarity of the two cables powering the motor, and repeat the operation at point 1.
After the START command is given, the automated system moves to close, until it reaches the closing stop or limit switch if supplied.
After about two seconds, the automated system restarts opening automatically until it reaches the opening stops or limit switch if supplied.
The control unit begins counting pause time. After the required time has elapsed, press the START command again, and the automated system will close completely.
The programming is now finished. Turn switch S2 back to OFF the flashing lamp goes off.
