6
DEAD MAN MODE – This operating mode requires the physical presence of a human
operator, who opens and closes the gate and the input of terminal 6 is used as the
closing input. To open the gate, press the start push-button and hold it down (opening
input). When the push-button is released, the gates are blocked. To close the gate, press
the close push-button and hold it down; if the photocells are obscured, the device blocks
the gates. In this case, the operator must release the push-buttons and press either
close or open. This is also the case if the two push-buttons are pressed at the same
time.
DIP SWITCH 3 (PAUSE PHOTOCELL) - This SWITCH is used to select the pause
photocell function when the automatic functioning mode is enabled. When the SWITCH
is in the ON position, if the photocell beam is interrupted and cleared with the automation
in pause, the device will command pre-flashing for 3 seconds and will then close the
gate, even if the pause time has not been concluded. When the SWITCH is in the OFF
position, the gate will only close when the set pause time expires.
DIP-SWITCH 4 (PRE-FLASHING) - This SWITCH is used to enable or disable pre-
flashing. It is possible for both the opening and closing stages. If the function is enabled,
before the automation opens or closes, there will be a signal for 3 seconds and the
warning light and flashing lights will come ON before the gates move.
Opening safety device input – N.C. contact enabled in automatic and in the two
alternatives of the semi-automatic mode. This is a safety device input which is enabled
during closing and opening. When the input is enabled, the gates are stopped immediately.
When the input is disabled, the gates start to move in the same direction as before after
a delay of 1 second. This function can be used to protect the areas where crushing may
occur.
Closing input - Input which is only enabled when Dead Man mode is selected. It closes
the automation when the close push-button is pressed and held down (terminal 6).
Warning light output - 24VDC output with maximum load of 3W, which commands the
gate state warning light. Light OFF: gate closed. Steady light: gate open or opening.
Flashing light: gate closing.
Flashing light output - 24 V output which commands the flashing light.
This output commands the flashing light with a pulsating power supply with frequency of
1 Hz: the light comes ON for 0.5 seconds and OFF for 0.5 sec. If pre-flashing is enabled,
this output is enabled 3 seconds before the command to move the gates (opening and
closing).
NOTE - Only use Aprimatic ET Series LED flashing lights or the output may be broken:
this will cause the entire system to malfunction.
