Installation Process (4-Step Overview):

  1. Physical Installation: Mount the motors, flashing light, and photocells. The main motor is fixed to the post with the power supply.
  2. Electrical Connection: Connect the secondary motor, flashing light, and photocells to the electronic card in the main motor. The transformer must be connected to the mains by qualified personnel (electrician). Optional products like a videophone, keypad, or backup battery can also be connected.
  3. Getting Started: Configure the system either through the EXTEL UMII application or manually via the electronic card.
  4. Operational Testing: Conduct thorough operational tests (open/close, obstacle detection, photocell beam cut) to ensure proper functioning and familiarize with the automatism. Adjust settings like motor power if necessary.

Maintenance Features:

While not explicitly detailed as "maintenance features" in the quick start guide, the inclusion of backup fuses (x1) suggests a basic level of user-replaceable components for minor electrical issues. The emphasis on downloading the full manual implies that detailed maintenance procedures and troubleshooting guides would be found there. The requirement for qualified personnel for mains connection also highlights the importance of professional intervention for certain electrical aspects, which can be considered a form of specialized maintenance.
