The Beninca LADY 4 is an automatic barrier system designed for controlling vehicle access. It is part of the LADY series, which includes models LADY4 and LADY5, and is characterized by its robust construction and advanced control features.
Function Description
The LADY 4 barrier system is designed for intensive use, making it suitable for various applications such as residential complexes, commercial areas, and industrial sites. It operates by raising and lowering a barrier arm to grant or deny access. The system incorporates a 24Vdc motor, which provides reliable and efficient operation.
Key functionalities include:
- Automatic Operation: The barrier can be programmed for automatic opening and closing cycles, with adjustable slow-down phases at both the open and close limits to ensure smooth and safe movement.
- Safety Features: The system is equipped with various safety inputs, including photocells (PHOT), stop buttons (STOP), and safety edges (SWC/SWO), to detect obstacles and prevent accidental impacts. It also supports an encoder for precise position control and obstacle detection.
- Emergency Release: In case of a power cut or malfunction, an emergency release mechanism allows manual operation of the barrier arm. This typically involves turning a key to disengage the motor and manually moving the arm.
- Master/Slave Configuration: For controlling wider access points, two LADY 4 units can be configured in a master/slave setup, allowing synchronized operation of two barrier arms. The master unit controls the slave unit via a dedicated communication bus (buS).
- Radio Control: The system can be operated remotely using radio transmitters, with the ability to program multiple transmitters and assign specific functions (e.g., open, close, step-by-step).
- Diagnostic Display: An integrated LED display provides real-time status information, error codes, and programming feedback, simplifying installation and troubleshooting.
- Programmable Parameters: A comprehensive programming menu allows customization of various operational parameters, including motor torque, speed, pause times, and safety input configurations.

- Barrier Arm Length: The LADY 4 supports barrier arms up to 4 meters (LADY4) or 5 meters (LADY5) in length, with specific models for different arm lengths (e.g., LADY.P(1) for 2.2m, LADY.P(2) for 2.7m, VE.RAST for 3.2m, SC.RES for 4.2m, VE.AF for 4.7m, VE.AFS for 5.2m).
Usage Features
- Installation Flexibility: The LADY 4 can be installed as a standalone unit or in a master/slave configuration for wider openings. The foundation plate allows for precise positioning and secure mounting.
- Easy Programming: The control unit features a user-friendly programming menu accessible via a display and push buttons (+, -, PG). This allows installers to set up the system, adjust parameters, and troubleshoot issues efficiently.
- Remote Control Integration: The system supports various remote control options, including standard transmitters and advanced systems like SIS (optional), for convenient access management.
- Photocell and Safety Edge Compatibility: Multiple inputs are available for connecting safety devices such as photocells and resistive safety edges, enhancing user safety and compliance with regulations.
- Adjustable Spring Tension: The spring tension, which counterbalances the weight of the barrier arm, can be adjusted to ensure smooth and balanced operation, especially when different arm lengths or accessories are used. This adjustment is crucial for the longevity of the motor and gearbox.
- Obstacle Detection: The encoder-based obstacle detection system ensures that the barrier reverses or stops if it encounters an obstruction during movement, preventing damage and injury.
- LED Indicator: An optional LED light bar (LBAR) can be integrated into the barrier arm to provide visual indication of the barrier's status (open/close) and enhance visibility, especially at night.
Maintenance Features
- Regular Checks: Periodic maintenance is recommended to ensure the system's optimal performance and longevity. This includes checking the mechanical components, electrical connections, and safety devices.
- Lubrication: Regular lubrication of moving parts, particularly the spring and pivot points, is essential to reduce wear and tear and maintain smooth operation.
- Troubleshooting via Display: The diagnostic display provides error codes (e.g., Err, Err1, Err2, Err3, ANP, thrn, ouLd, Enc) that help identify specific issues, such as motor errors, photocell problems, encoder malfunctions, or overheating, simplifying troubleshooting.
- Firmware Updates: The control unit may support firmware updates, allowing for improvements in functionality and bug fixes.
- Component Replacement: The manual provides detailed diagrams and part lists for various components, facilitating the identification and replacement of worn or damaged parts. Key components like the motor, gearbox, springs, and control unit are designed for serviceability.
- Waste Disposal: The product is designed to be dismantled and its components (metals, plastics, electronic cables, etc.) disposed of according to local regulations, emphasizing environmental responsibility.
