SECTION 25 CONTROLLER FEATURES
25. Controller Features
25.1. Menu 2 - Safety (Collision Force)
25.1.1. Collision Force
If the gate is obstructed, the internal collision circuitry will activate.
Theresponseofthesystemtoacollisionwillvary,dependingontheprole
selected(OperatingStandard,eg.ZA).Responsescanvaryfromthegate
stopping, to the gate reversing. The Collision Force can be set from minimum to
maximuminvediscretesteps.
A sixth step will disable collision sensing entirely, allowing maximum force to be
achieved. Under this condition, the motor will continue running until it stalls, at
which point a collision will be detected.
This level should only be used if additional safety measures are
taken (eg. Infrared Safety Beams, etc.).
Collision Force can be set independently per direction of travel.
25.1.2. Collision Count
A counter monitors the number of collisions that the gate experiences before
it reaches the fully closed position. If the value exceeds the value set in the
Multiple Collision Counter, the Controller shuts down until the next valid
triggerisreceived.Asanindication,thestatusLEDwillashfourtimeseverytwo
seconds. The Multiple Collisionfaultindicationwillcontinuetoashindenitely
or until a valid trigger has been received.
This feature must only be used if infrared gate safety beams are
installed to prevent the gate(s) from closing onto people, pets or
vehicles.
25.2. Menu 3 - Autoclose
25.2.1. Autoclose Status
When enabled, the Autoclose feature has the function of automatically closing
the gate after a preset Autoclose time. The Autoclose feature is automatically
turned on when the Controller is set for Condominium Mode.
25.2.2. Autoclose Timer
The Autoclose time can be set anywhere from 1 to 255 seconds.
25.2.3. Autoclose Override
ItispossiblefortheusertotemporarilyturnoAutoclose when the Mode of
Operation is Standard or Reversing. To activate Autoclose Override, the Trg
input must be activated and maintained for a period longer than the time set
for the Autoclose Override Time. For example, suppose that the Autoclose
Override time is left at the default value of 3 seconds. If a remote button (learned
to activate the trigger function of the onboard receiver) is pressed and held for a
period exceeding 3 seconds, Autoclose will temporarily be disabled.
