The provided document is an operator manual for the Gilgen FD 20 Swing Door Drive Mechanism.
Function Description
The Gilgen FD 20 is a swing door drive mechanism designed for the automatic opening and closing of swing doors. It can be operated automatically or manually via control elements. The door closes automatically after a programmed hold-open time expires.
Key operational features include:
- Push and Go Function: If enabled, a slight manual push initiates an automatic opening sequence.
- Servo Operation: The drive mechanism compensates for the closing force of the spring, making the door behave like a normal door without a drive mechanism.
- Operating Modes: The door's operating characteristics can be selected via a program selector, offering modes such as AUTOMATIC, NIGHT, OPEN, MANUAL, and EXIT.
- Automatic Closing Sequence Control: For two-leaf installations, two separate FD 20 drive mechanisms are used, connected via a CAN bus system, with one designated as "Master" and the other as "Slave" to manage the opening and closing sequence.
- Inverse Application (Optional): The FD 20 can be programmed for inverse operation. In this mode, in the event of a power failure, the door leaf reliably opens due to spring power (unless locked). During normal operation in inverse mode, opening and closing are motorized, and automatic opening is triggered by opening elements.

Usage Features
Control Elements:
The system supports various control elements, including:
- Motion detector (interior/exterior)
- D-BEDIX / KOMBI-D-BEDIX (optional)
- Program selector
- Push-button
- Key-operated pivoting switch
- Remote radio control
Program Selector (Built-in):
- Allows selection of operating modes: AUTOMATIC, NIGHT, OPEN, MANUAL, EXIT.
- The active mode is indicated by an illuminated key.
- Key Lock: Three versions (Fix, Toggle, Time) allow for locking program settings to prevent unauthorized changes.
- Teach-in Procedure: A specific sequence (closing the door, holding MANUAL and EXIT keys for 5 seconds) deletes pending errors and initiates a teach-in procedure for the door.
D-BEDIX / KOMBI-D-BEDIX (Optional):
- D-BEDIX: Enables direct selection of operating modes and easy programming of door settings. Displays operating modes, menu settings, and errors. Connects via a screened two-core cable (max. 50 m).
- Keys: C-key (Cancel/Exit menu/Invalidate entry), OK-key (Confirm selection/entry), Arrow keys (Navigate menus/Access menu level).
- Symbols: Visual representation of operating modes, selection frames (active/inhibited), and preselected operating mode bar.
- Display of Door Position: Shows current door status (e.g., Waits for reference switch, Unknown, Closed, Closed and locked, Opening, Open, Closing, Stopping).
- KOMBI-D-BEDIX: Adds a key-operated switch (round or profile cylinder) to the D-BEDIX functions, allowing lockout of the KOMBI-D-BEDIX itself against unauthorized use.
Safety Features:
- The installation must be operated and maintained in a condition that guarantees safety at all times.
- No structural modifications are allowed near the door without Gilgen Door Systems' authorization.
- No objects (furniture, pallets, etc.) should be placed near the door.
- All interventions and modifications not described in the manual are forbidden.
- The FD 20 must only be installed and operated in dry rooms.
- Safety devices must not be bypassed, shunted, or disabled. Defective safety devices must not be disconnected to continue operation.
- In case of malfunctions affecting user safety, the installation must be immediately taken out of operation and only restarted after repair and elimination of danger.
- Only original Gilgen Door Systems accessories/spare parts should be used to ensure safe and reliable function.
- Transparent door leaves and fixed side panels must be clearly recognizable (e.g., by marking or dyed materials).
- Door sills or protruding elements must be marked with warning stickers.

Maintenance Features
Care/Checking by the Operator:
- Switching Off: Select MANUAL mode or switch off the main switch before any work.
- Care:
- Clean the floor around the door leaf.
- Clean the outside of the drive mechanism covering with a moistened rag.
- Warning: Do not use running water or high-pressure machines for cleaning.
- Attention: Do not use metal brushes or chemical products for cleaning.
- Checking (at least every 2 months):
- Check for unusual grinding or screeching noises when moving the door leaf manually.
- Check the function, free access, and identification of the emergency stop button (if optional).
- Check the correct fastening of the drive mechanism covering.
- Attention: Contact after-sales service immediately if damage or malfunction cannot be repaired by the operator.
Maintenance/Checking by After-Sales Service:
- The installation must be checked for safe condition before first commissioning and during normal operation, at least once a year, by an expert.
- Correct maintenance/checking must be confirmed by entering the date and signature into the control booklet.
- It is recommended to conclude a maintenance contract with the manufacturer or authorized distribution partner.
- For Germany: Automatic doors are stationary electrical door systems. The operator must ensure an inspection according to DGUV 3 every 4 years by a qualified electrician.
Troubleshooting:
- Error Display (with D-BEDIX/KOMBI-D-BEDIX): The control unit displays error numbers for various situations. Fatal errors are shown automatically when the installation is switched on.
- Carrying out a Reset: After noting the error number, selecting and confirming "Reset" via the OK key will make the drive unit automatically re-adjust itself. If the error persists, contact after-sales service, providing the error number for precise diagnosis.
- Irregular Functioning without Error Number: A table is provided to diagnose issues like the drive mechanism not functioning, not opening, not closing, or the leaf moving jerkily, along with possible causes and elimination steps.
Shut-Down:
- No particular measures are needed for de-commissioning.
- If not used for at least 1 month, pull out the mains plug.
- For re-commissioning, plug in the mains cable and select the operating mode.
- If out of operation for more than 3 months, re-commissioning by after-sales service is recommended.
Disposal:
- Ecologically acceptable disposal is ensured by separating and recycling materials.
- No particular environmental protection measures are required, but relevant legal prescriptions must be followed.
- It is advised to entrust after-sales specialists with dismantling and disposal to ensure compliance with environmental protection rules.
