WARNING – to reduce the risk of severe injury or death: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS. 2. Never let children operate or play with the gate controls.
Keep remote controls away from children. 3. Always keep people and objects
away from the gate.
NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF A MOVING GATE. 4. Test the gate operator
monthly. The gate MUST reverse
on contact with a rigid object or stop when an object activates the non-
contact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel, retest the
gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly can
increase the risk of injury or death. 5. Use the emergency release only when
the gate is not moving. 6. KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the user’s
manual. Have a qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware. 7. The
entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use a separate entrance.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INFORMATION
a) Install the gate operator only when: 1) The operator is appropriate for the
construction of the gate and usage Class of the gate, 2) All openings of a
horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a
minimum of 1.83 m (6 ft) above the ground to prevent a 57.2 mm (2-1/4 in)
diameter sphere from passing through openings anywhere in the gate, and in
that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position,
3) All areas of the moving vertical pivot gate panel from the bottom of the
gate to the top of the gate or a minimum of 1.83 m (72 in) above grade,
whichever is less, that pass by a fixed stationary object, and in the area of
the adjacent fence that the gate covers during the travel of the gate, shall
be designed, guarded or screened to prevent a 57.2 mm (2-1/4 in) diameter
sphere from passing through such areas. 4) All exposed pinch points are
eliminated or guarded, and
- Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
- The operator instructions shall list the maximum number of open and close
entrapment protection devices capable of being connected to the operator.
b) The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
c) The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas.
d) The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch or pressure relief valve to compensate for an improperly installed, improperly functioning, or damaged gate.
For gate operators utilizing Type D protection:
- The gate operator controls must be placed so that the user has full view of the gate area when the gate is moving,

- An automatic closing device (such as a timer, loop sensor, or similar device) shall not be employed, and
- No other activation device shall be connected.
f) Permanently mounted controls intended for user activation must be located at least 1.83 m (6 ft) away from any moving part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls.
Exception: Emergency access controls only accessible by authorized personnel (e.g.fire, police, EMS) may be placed at any location in the line-of-sight of the gate.
g) The Stop and/or Reset buttons must be located within lineof-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start.
h) A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, in the area of the gate. Each placard is to be visible by persons located on the side of the gate on which the placard is installed.
i) For gate operators that utilize a non-contact sensor (photo beam or similar): - See instructions on the placement of non-contact sensors for each type of application,
- Care should be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as
when a vehicle
trips the sensor while the gate is still moving, and - One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
3
j) For gate operators that utilize a contact sensor (edge sensor or similar):
- One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge, and postmounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate.
- One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vehicular vertical lift gate.
- One or more contact sensors shall be located at the pinch point of a vehicular vertical pivot gate.
- A hardwired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so that the communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subjected to mechanical damage.

3. SAFETY DEVICES CONNECTIONS
Entrapment protection To comply with the UL325 standard for gate operators
every entrapment zone, as defined in ASTMF2200, must be protected by two
independent entrapment protection devices. One of the devices is inherent in
the E024U control boards design, the other can be external, like a photocell
or an edge sensor. See this picture for the photocells positioning:

Closing Safety Devices Opening Safety Devices
Opening Safety Devices:
Are active only during the gate opening movement, and are suitable for
protecting the area between the opening leaves and fixed obstacles (walls,
etc) against the risk of entrapment
Closing Safety Devices:
Are active only during the gate closing movement, and are suitable for
protecting the closing area against the risk of entrapment.
Monitored Devices:
Additionaly the UL325 standard requires that every external entrapment
protection device must be monitored for presence and correct operation. To
comply with this requirement the E024U control board uses the FAILSAFE
function. This function tests the photocells before each movement of the
operator. In case the test fails the movement is inhibited. This function is
enabled by default on the Closing Safety Input and can be enabled on the
Opening Safety Input using dip-switch 12 of DS1 ON.
The power supply negative of the transmitter must be connected to the OUT pin
(No.9).

Opening/Closing Safety Devices:
They operate during the gate opening and closing movements and are suitable to
protect the opening and closing areas against the risk of impact. Typically
these photocells work in combination with other monitored photocell protecting
closing or opening entrapment zones. In that case they can’t be monitored so
they can only protect against potential impact on vehicles.

The opening of leaf 2 is delayed after the opening of leaf 1. This is to avoid
the gate leafs interfering with each other during the initial part of the
movement. In case there is only one leaf it has no effect.
If active, before opening, while the gate is closed, the motors thrust to
close for 2 s to facilitate the release of the electric lock. At closing the
motors are activated for a final stroke after slowdown to facilitate locking
of the electric lock.
With this fuction active the motors work at maximum force at startup
(regardless of the force setting) during the initial phase of the movement.
Useful for heavy leaves
If active and with the optional backup battery installed, the board will open
the gate after one minute from the power failure and keep it open. Within the
minute wait it’s always possible to open and close the gate with a command. If
the logic used has a pause time the board will close the gate when the power
comes back.

With this function you can choose the behavior of the closing safety. With SW8
OFF the gate movement will be reversed as soon as the safety is active, with
SW8 ON the gate will stop when the safety is active and it will reverse only
when the safety is deactivated.
Selects the behavior of the shadow loop function of the Shadow Loop or Loop
Detectors Interface accessories. OFF: The shadow loop input is active only
before a closing command, ignored in any other conditions ON: The shadow loop
input is active before a closing and before an opening command. If an open
command is given and the shadow loop input is engaged the open command will be
ignored even after the shadow loop input goes inactive. NOTE: On the first

POSITIVE STOP (10 min. )
– Verify that the operator manual release is not engaged – Verify that the board recognizes the mechanical stop, in case redo the setup procedure – Verify that the gates slow down before reaching the positive stops. If they don’t then redo the setup procedure
6. TIME LEARNING (SET-UP)
After powering up the board for the first time or when the board will need it
the setup LED will blink at a slow frequency to indicate that the setup
procedure to learn the running times is needed.
The setup can be redone at any time by pressing and holding the setup button
as indicated below. The setup cannot be done until the safeties and stop
inputs are wired.
FCC2 both leafs stop and leaf 1 restarts automatically opening at full speed
followed by leaf 2 (if present).
7. If you selected an automatic logic the board will wait for the pause time
and then closes the gate automatically. Otherwise you have to give an OPEN
command to close the gate.
After the setup first movement, if the leafs are opening instead of closing
you need to reverse the wires going to the motor that moves in the wrong
direction
AUTOMATIC TIME LEARNING
WARNING: If the time learning setup is done automatically then the slow down
points are set by the board on his own
WARNING: If the manual time learning setup is done then the slow down points
must be set by the installer during the procedure. Slow down is required for
proper operation.
Move the leafs to the mid position Very important for a good result
Move the leafs to the mid position Very important for a good result
1. Press and hold the SETUP button until the SETUP LED lights up, wait about
3 sec. until it turns off and then release it immediately. NOTE: If you wait
too long to release it the manual set-up will start. The LED will blink during
the setup procedure
2. Leaf 2 (if present) starts to move slowly in closing direction, stopping
when it reaches the mechanical stop or FCC2.
3. Leaf 1 begins to move slowly in closing direction, stopping when it
reaches the mechanical stop, or FCC1.
4. Leaf 1 starts to move slowly in opening direction, followed
by leaf 2 (if present) still slowly.
5. When they both reach the open mechanical stop or FCA1 and FCA2 they stop
and reverse, leaf 2 (if present) automatically starts closing at full speed
followed by leaf 1.
6. When they reach the close mechanical stop or FCC1 and
1. Press and hold the SETUP button until the SETUP LED lights up, keep it
pressed for about 3 sec. until it turns off and keep it pressed more until the
leaf 2 (if present) starts moving slowly. The LED will blink during the setup
procedure
2. Leaf 2 will move in closing direction until it reaches the mechanical stop
or FCC2
3. Leaf 1 starts moving slowly until it reaches the mechanical stop or FCC1
4. Leaf 1 starts moving in opening direction at the set speed (trimmer
speed).
5. At the point where you want the slowdown to start give an OPEN A command
with the push button or the remote that is already stored in memory. Leaf 1
starts to slow down and stops when it reaches the mechanical stop or FCA1.
6. Leaf 2 starts moving in opening direction at the set speed (trimmer speed)
19
7. At the point where you want the slowdown to start give an OPEN A command
with the push button or the remote that is already stored in memory. Leaf 2
starts to slow down and stops when it reaches the mechanical stop or FCA2.
8. Leaf 2 starts to close at the set speed (trimmer speed). 9. At the point
where you want the slowdown to start give an
OPEN A command with the push button or the remote that is already stored in
memory. The leaf 2 starts to slow down and stops when it reaches the
mechanical stop or FCC2. 10. Leaf 1 starts to close at the set speed (trimmer
speed). 11. At the point where you want the slowdown to start give an OPEN A
command with the push button or the remote that is already stored in memory.
Leaf 1 starts to slow down and stops when it reaches the mechanical stop or
FCC1. 12. The manual time learning procedure is complete.
After time learning test the gate to set the force, speed and sensitivity
using the trimmers.
1. Apply resistance to the gate and adjust the Force to make sure that the
operator creates enough thrust to reliably move the leaf.
2. Set the desired speed. Keep the speed relatively low on big and heavier
gates.
3. After Force and Speed are set to the desired settings adjust the
Sensitivity so the gate reverses promptly after hitting a rigid object.
4. After all the adjustments are done perform setup again.
7. OBSTACLE DETECTION
The obstacle detection function is achieved by controlling the current
absorption and / or through the encoder connected to the motors. If the gate
encounters an obstacle during the movement of opening or closing, the obstacle
detection function is activated and the operator reverses the direction of the
gate. In case of a second consecutive obstacle the operator stops the gate
right away and any further command is inhibited. To re-enable the automation,
you must remove power (and disconnect batteries if present) or open the STOP
contact input. The Audio Alarm output will be active until this “reset”.
This is a more detailed description of what happens after an obstacle
detection: Gate opening, obstacle detected: The gate reverses partially (for 3
sec.) and STOPS. After that the gate is in a halfway position or completely
closed.
If an open_A command is received, the gate tries to open from the current
position: · If there is another obstacle detection: the gate stops
completely, the alarm goes off · If the gate reaches the open position: the
obstructions
count is reset, the gate returns to normal operations
Gate closing, obstacle detected: The gate reverses partially (for 3 sec.) and
STOPS. After that the gate is in a halfway position or completely open.
If an open_A command is received in NON Automatic mode · if the gate was not
completely open: execute an open · if the gate was completely open: execute a
close
If an open_A command is received in Automatic mode: · if the gate was not
completely open: execute an open,
wait for the pause time and then closes. · if the gate was completely open:
reload the pausetime,
and then closes
If there is another obstacle detection: the gate stops completely, the alarm
goes off. If the gate reaches the close position: the obstructions count is
reset, the gate returns to normal operations

E024U board 3. Wire the shadow loop detector NC output to the CL input
on the XIB board as in figure below 4. Connect Common from loop detector to
GND (terminal
6) on E024U 5. If no second open safety device is present jump out the
OP input on XIB board to GND (terminal 6) on the E024U 6. Wire the encoder (if
needed) to J2 7. Refer to Fig. A11 for the wiring schematic 8. Turn power back
ON 9. Press and release the SW1 button quickly. The board will
recognize that the XIB board has been removed
10. Re-program run time if needed.
REMOVING THE INTERFACE 1. Turn power OFF 2. Unplug the board and remove the
wiring 3. Move the encoder wires (if present) to the 2EASY con-
nector on the board 4. Turn power back ON 5. Verify that leaf 1 & 2 lights on
the encoder are correct 6. Press and release the SW1 button quickly. The board
will
recognize that the XIB board has been removed 7. Re-program run time if
needed.
NOTE: · Do not connect the shadow loop detector in series with
regular closing safety devices. · If the E024U board doesn’t have the correct
software
installed the shadow loop will act as a normal closing safety, detecting also
the gate itself and not allowing the closing movement to complete. Please
contact technical support for assistance in that case.
SECOND OPEN SAFETY INPUT The OP input on the XIB board can be used as a second
monitored open safety input. When open safety monitoring is turned ON on the
E024U board (Dip SW 12 ON) the OP input on the XIB (J3 OP) is monitored and
can be used to protect an entrapment zone. See Fig. A12a/b for the
connections. In case only one opening safey input is needed and the XIB board
is present connect the opening safey photocell to FSW OP on the E024U and J3
OP on the XIB in parallel. See Fig. A13a/b for the connections.

LOOP DETECTORS INTERFACE (p/n 2670.1)
The Loop Detector Interface allows connection of up to three plug-in detectors
associated with standard functions. The board is designed to fit in the FAAC
standard 16″ x 14″ enclosure on the existing DIN rail. To connect the
interface board: 1) Connect the 2EASY BUS from the E024U to the interface
board (no polarity) – Green Wires 2) Connect pin 8 on the E024U board (+24V)
to the +24 input on the interface board – Red Wire 3) Connect pin 7 on the
E024U board (GND) to the GND input on the interface board – Black Wire 4)
Connect the loops to the interface board as in the figure below
Turn the power on on the E024U board. The LED on the interface board will
blink briefly and then will stay ON solid if the BUS connection is working
correctly.
IMPORTANT: Briefly press the SW1 button on the E024U board to make it aware of
the presence of the additional interface board.
To make sure the board is working properly you can check the behaviour of BUS
LED on the E024U board. It will be normally on when none of the loop detectors
is active. If any of the detectors is activated the LED will turn off.

When the warranty service involves the exchange of an operator or part, the
item the Seller replaces becomes its property and the replacement becomes
Purchaser’s property. The Purchaser represents that all removed items are
genuine and unaltered. The replacement may not be new but will be in good
working order and at least functionally equivalent to the item replaced. The
replacement assumes the warranty service status of the replaced item.
The products are not warranted to meet the specific requirements, if any, of
safety codes of any particular state, municipality, or other jurisdiction, and
the Seller doesn’t assume any risk or liability whatsoever resulting from the
use thereof, whether used singly or in combination with other machines or
apparatus.
The Seller does not assume nor authorizes any person to assume for them any
other liability in connection with the sale or use of the products of beyond
that extended herein.
The warranty hereinabove set forth shall not be deemed to cover maintenance
parts, including, but not limited to hydraulic oil, motor brushes, or the
like. No agreement to replace or repair shall constitute an admission by the
Seller of any legal responsibility to effect such replacement to make such
repair, or otherwise.
