Testing Safety Obstruction Force
CAUTION: Take care when testing the safety
obstruction force. Failure to follow this
warning can result in serious personal injury
and/or property damage.
16.1 Test the Close Cycle
a. Press the OPERATE button to open the door
(Fig. 26)
.
b. Place a piece of timber approximately 40mm high on
the
fl
oor directly under the door
(Fig 27).
c. Press the OPERATE button to close door.
d. The door should strike the object and re-open.
16.2 Testing the Open Cycle
a. Press the OPERATE button to close the door
(Fig. 26)
.
b. Press again to open the door.
c. When the door reaches approximately half way,
fi
rmly
grab the door’s bottom rail - the door should stop.
If the door does not reverse readily when closing, or stop
when opening, the force may be excessive and need
adjustment, refer to Step 16.4.
IMPORTANT WARNING: If the door is closing
and is unable to re-open when obstructed,
discontinue use. Do not use a door with faulty
obstruction sensing. Repair fault and re-test
before using.
Adjusting Safety Obstruction Force
The safety obstruction force is calculated automatically
and normally does not require adjustment. The only time
the force may need to be adjusted is due to environmental
conditions, such as areas that are windy, dusty or have
extreme temperature changes that affect the operability
and movement of the door.
WARNING:
Doors requiring over 400N of force
to move must have Safety Beams
fi
tted for safety.
Step 16.3 - To Increase Force Pressure
a. Press and hold the FORCE MARGIN SET button
(Fig
28).
b. While holding down the FORCE MARGIN SET button,
press the PLUS (+) button.
c. Each press will increase the force margin one step.
The OPEN LIMIT LED will
fl
ash each time the PLUS
(+) button is pressed to indicate an increase in force.
d. Test the force again as per Steps 16.1 and 16.2.
e. If the OPEN LIMIT LED
fl
ashes continuously when the
PLUS (+) button is being pressed, this indicates that
the maximum force setting has been reached.
Step 16.4 - To Decrease Force Pressure
a. Press and hold the FORCE MARGIN SET button
(Fig 26)
.
b. While holding down the FORCE MARGIN SET
button, press the MINUS (-) button.
c. Each press will decrease the force margin one
step. The CLOSE LIMIT LED will
fl
ash each time
the MINUS (-) button is pressed to indicate a
decrease in force.
d. Test the force again as per Steps 16.1 and 16.2.
e. If the CLOSE LIMIT LED
fl
ashes continuously
when the MINUS (-) button is being pressed,
this indicates that the minimum force setting has
been reached.
Step 16.5 - To Recall Factory Set Force
a. Holding down the FORCE MARGIN SET button
and the LIMIT SET button for two seconds.
b. Release both buttons. The default setting should
now be recalled.
