Switch 1-2
In “Manual” mode, the manoeuvre is executed exclusively while the com-
mand is present (while the transmitter key is held down -hold-to-run).
In “Semi-automatic” mode, on delivery of a command the manoeuvre is
executed exclusively until the Work Time elapses or when the limit switch
is reached.
In the case of “automatic” mode, there is a pause after an Opening
manoeuvre, after which the Closing manoeuvre is performed.
The “Always Close”functionisactivatedfollowingapowerfailure;when
power is restored, if the control unit detects the gate leaf in the Opening
position,itautomaticallystartsaClosingmanoeuvreprecededbya5-sec-
ondpre-ashinterval.
Switch 3
In Apartment Block mode, when a Step-Step command is sent and an
Opening manoeuvre is started, this cannot be interrupted by any other
“Step-Step command or “Open” command via radio until the manoeuvre
is completed.
However, during the Closing manoeuvre, delivery of a Step-Step com-
mand causes shutdown of the manoeuvre and immediate inversion of
movement.
Switch 4
Whenacommandissent,theashinglightisactivatedrst,andafter5
seconds (2 seconds if set to Manual mode) the manoeuvre is started.
Switch 5
This function, if set to “Automatic “ mode enables the user to keep the gate
leafopenonlyforthetimerequiredfortransitofvehiclesorpersons;infact
after activated of the “Foto” safety devices, the manoeuvre is topped and
after5secondsaClosingmanoeuvreisstartedautomatically.
However, if “Semi-automatic” mode is set, when the “Foto” safety devices
are activated, during a Closing manoeuvre automatic closure is activated
with a duration as set in the “Pause Time”.
Switch 6
The “Foto” safety function is normally activated only for Closing manoeu-
vres;ifDipswitch6issettoONactivationofthesafetydevicealsocauses
interruption of the manoeuvre in Opening. On the other hand, if “Semiau-
tomatic” or “automatic” mode is set, the Opening manoeuvre is resumed
immediately after the safety devices are released.
Switch 7
Whenthisfunctionisset,themanoeuvreisstartedupgradually;this
avoids possible jerks in movement of the automation.
Switch 8
Decelerationconsistsina30%reductionofthenominalspeed,toreduce
the impact force at the end of a manoeuvre.
Once the deceleration function is enabled, the Work Time (WT) must be
adjusted as the deceleration start depends on the set Work Time. There-
foretheTLmustbesetsothatthedecelerationphasestartsat50-70cm
before activation of the limit switches.
The deceleration function slows down the automation speed and reduces
motortorqueby70%.CAUTION – On automations requiring a high motor
torque, this deceleration function may cause immediate shutdown of the
motor.
Switch 9
When this function is set, a motor braking procedure is performed at the
end of a manoeuvre, initially at a moderate level and then stronger in order
to quickly stop the gate leaf without jerking movements.
Switch 10
Not used.
The control unit operating parameters can be adjusted by means of the
trimmers (g. 12) on the unit.
•Work time (TL): In Semi-automatic mode, this parameter sets the maxi-
mum duration of the Opening or Closing manoeuvre To adjust this param-
eter, proceed as follows: a) select the “Semiautomatic” operating mode
and position Dip-Switch 1at”ON”;b)position“TrimmerTL”tomid-travel;
c) execute a complete Opening and Closing manoeuvre and check that
the maximum duration set for the Opening and Closing manoeuvre is suf-
cientandthatamarginof2or3secondsremains;ifnecessaryrepeat
adjustment of “Trimmer TL” to set the maximum value. If the duration is
stillnotsufcient,removethejumperTLMinthevicinityofTrimmerTL(g.
12), to obtain an “Extended Work Time” (TLM).
If the deceleration function is required, the trimmer must be set so that the
decelerationphasestartsat50-70cmbeforeactivationofthelimitswitches.
Anymodicationstothisparameterareshownduringtherstopening
manoeuvrefollowingthemodication.
• Pause time (TP): When set to “automatic” mode, this parameter sets
the time that passes between the end of an Opening manoeuvre and the
start of a Closing manoeuvre. To adjust this parameter, proceed as fol-
lows: a) select the “automatic” operating mode and position Dip-Switch
2at”ON”;b)position“TrimmerTP”asrequired;c) execute a complete
Opening manoeuvre and check that the time that passes before the start
of a Closing manoeuvre to ensure that the set time is correct.
•Force (F): Caution–Adjustmentofthisparameterhassignicantinu-
ence on the degree of automation safety and therefore great care must be
taken during these procedures.
To adjust this parameter, proceed with a trial by error approach: Measure
the force applied by the gate leaf during a manoeuvre and compare the
readingwiththevaluesspeciedbylocalstandards.
Operating mode
Step-step (SS): This mode, used in manual mode (hold-to-run), acti-
vates the Opening and Closing manoeuvres alternately and when the
command completes the manoeuvre it stops.
The manoeuvre is stopped, both on Opening and Closing, when limit
switches are activated and also during Closing the movement is stopped
if there is no permissive of the “Foto” safety devices. On the other hand, if
“ALT” is activated, either in Opening or Closing, the manoeuvre is stopped
immediately with a brief inversion.
When the manoeuvre is stopped, the delivery of the command must be
interrupted by sending another command.
However, when Step Step mode is used in one of the automatic modes
(“Semiautomatic”, “Automatic” or “Always Close”) delivery of a com-
mand activates the Opening and Closing manoeuvre alternately and a
“Stop” function is activated when a second command is delivered. On the
other hand, if “ALT” is activated, either in Opening or Closing, the manoeu-
vre is stopped immediately with a brief inversion.
In the case of automatic mode, there is a pause after an Opening manoeu-
vre, after which the Closing manoeuvre is performed.
During a pause, if the “Foto” safety devices are activated, the timer is reset
withanewpauseTime;otherwiseif“Alt”isactivatedduringthepause,the
automatic closure function is cancelled and a Stop is activated.
During the Opening manoeuvre activation of a “Foto” device has no effect,
while during closure this causes inversion of movement followed by a
pause and then Closure.
Programmable functions
The control unit has a series of microswitches which enable activation of
variousfunctionstoadapttheautomationtothespecicneedsoftheuser
and increase safety in the various conditions of use.
Dipswitch 1 or 2 is used to activate or deactivate the functions: To acti-
vate the dipswitch is set to “ON” and to deactivate it is set to “OFF”.
Some of the functions available regard safety, and it is therefore important
to carefully evaluate which function is the safest.
The dipswitches enable selection of the various operating modes and pro-
gramming of the required functions, as described in Table A:

- 1quickdoubleash = indicates when the microprocessor reads a varia-
tion in the operating status of an input (either of a control input or function
dipswitch);thisoccursthenthedetectedvariationdoesnothaveimmedi-
ate effects.

and that therefore a fault has been found.
