This document describes the ZLJ14 control panel, designed for 24 V gearmotors, and provides comprehensive instructions for its installation, programming, and maintenance.
Function Description
The ZLJ14 is a multi-function control panel for one-swing-leaf gates. It features a graphic programming and alert display, along with self-diagnosis capabilities for safety devices. All input and output contact functions, time settings, and user management are configured and viewed on the graphic display. The panel's wiring connections are protected by quick-fuses. It is specifically designed for integration into partly-completed machinery or equipment to form a complete system compliant with European Directive 2006/42/CE.

For outdoor 230 V operation, H05RN-F-type cables (60245 IEC 57 compliant) are recommended. For indoor use, H05VV-F-type cables (60227 IEC 53 compliant) are suitable. For power supplies up to 48 V, FROR 20-22 II-type cables (EN 50267-2-1 compliant) can be used. Encoder connections require 2402C 22AWG-type cables up to 30 meters. CRP connections use UTP CAT5-type cables up to 1,000 m. Antenna connections require RG58 cable up to 10 m. Cable sections should be adjusted based on actual power draw and distances, especially for multiple, sequential loads.
Usage Features
The ZLJ14 offers extensive programming options via its graphic display and buttons (ESC, <, >, ENTER).
Programming Commands
- ENTER: Enters menus, confirms/memorizes values.
- ESC: Exits menus, cancels changes.
- < / >: Moves between items, increases/decreases values.
Key Programming Menus and Functions
- [LANGUAGE]: Selects interface language (Italiano, English, Français, Deutsch, Español, Portugues euro, Portugues bras).
- [FUNCTIONS] menu:
- [Auto Close]: Enables/disables automatic closing (0-300 s wait time). Disabled if safety devices trigger, after total stop, or power outage.
- [Maintained Action]: Enables/disables gate closing by continuous button press (contacts 2-3 for opening, 2-4 for closing). Excludes other control devices.
- [Obstruction Det.]: Enables/disables obstruction detection. Operator remains idle if safety devices detect an obstruction.
- [Safety Test] function: Enables/disables photocell functionality check after each command. Selectable photocell inputs (CX, CY, CZ).
- [Preflashing]: Enables/disables flashing light (connected to 10-E) before maneuver. Time set in [Preflash T] in [SET TIMES].
- [Jolt]: Enables/disables inward thrust before maneuver to release electro-lock. Time set in [Jolt time] in [SET TIMES].
- [Total Stop] function: Enables/disables total stop. Gate stops, automatic closing excluded, resumes with control device. Safety device on 1-2.
- [CX Input], [CY Input], [CZ Input]: Configures operating mode for connected devices (photocells, sensitive safety-edges). Options include:
- C1 Reopen during closing: Inverts movement until fully open.
- C2 Reclose during opening: Inverts movement until fully closed.
- C3 Partial stop: Stops gate, enables automatic closing.
- C4 Obstruction wait: Stops gate, resumes movement after obstruction removal.
- C7 Reopen during closing (sensitive safety-edges): Inverts movement until fully open.
- C8 Reclose during opening (sensitive safety-edges): Inverts movement until fully closed.
- [CI. Thrust]: Enables/disables closing thrust for a few seconds when leaf reaches limit-switch.
- [Lock]: Selects command for electric lock release (Close, Opening, Open-Close).
- [Lock Type]: Sets electric lock type (Impulsive, Continuous). Impulsive activates for a few seconds (time regulated by [Lock time]), Continuous activates during entire maneuver.
- [Config]: Configures opening and closing slow-downs. Options: [Timed LS], [Limit-switch], [SloDwn], [OpLs-Clslodwn], [ENCODER].
