occur during use.
• The installation must comply with the provisions set out by the following
European Directives: 89/336/CEE, 73/23/EEC, 98/37/EEC and subsequent
amendments.
• Disconnect the electrical power supply before carrying out any work on
the installation. Also disconnect any buffer batteries, if fitted.
• Fit an omnipolar or magnetothermal switch on the mains power supply,
having a contact opening distance equal to or greater than 3,5 mm.
• Check that a differential switch with a 0.03A threshold is fitted just before
the power supply mains.
• Check that earthing is carried out correctly: connect all metal parts for
closure (doors, gates etc.) and all system components provided with an
earth terminal.
• Fit all the safety devices (photocells, electric edges etc.) which are needed
to protect the area from any danger caused by squashing, conveying and
shearing.
• Position at least one luminous signal indication device (blinker) where it
can be easily seen, and fix a Warning sign to the structure.
• The Company declines all responsibility with respect to the automation safety
and correct operation when other manufacturers’ components are used.
• Only use original parts for any maintenance or repair operation.
• Do not modify the automation components, unless explicitly authorised
by the company.
• Instruct the product user about the control systems provided and the
manual opening operation in case of emergency.
• Do not allow persons or children to remain in the automation operation area.
• Keep radio control or other control devices out of children’s reach, in
order to avoid unintentional automation activation.
• The user must avoid any attempt to carry out work or repair on the automa-
tion system, and always request the assistance of qualified personnel.
• Anything which is not expressly provided for in the present instructions,
is not allowed.
• Installation must be carried out using the safety devices and controls
prescribed by the EN 12978 Standard.

4) TERMINAL BOARD CONNECTIONS (Fig.2)
For the wiring diagram and the cable section, make reference to the ope-
rator’s manual.
WARNING
– During the wiring and installation operations, refer to the current
standards as well as principles of good technical practice.
Wires powered at different voltages must be physically separated, or suitably
insulated with at least 1 mm extra insulation. The wires must be clamped by
an extra fastener near the terminals, for example by bands.
All the connection cables must be kept at an adequate distance from the
dissipator.
Connect the yellow/green conductor of the power supply cable to the earth terminal.
230V cables must be physically separate from the safety very low voltage circuits.
Keep the mains voltage connections definitely separate from the (24V) very
low voltage connections.
The capacitors inside the control unit must be positioned in such a way
as not to decrease the surface and air distances with respect to the safety
very low voltage.
WARNING! For connection to the mains, use a multipolar cable with a
minimum of 3x1.5mm
2
cross section and complying with the previou-
sly mentioned regulations. For example, if the cable is out side (in the
open), it has to be at least equal to H07RN-F, but if it is on the inside
(or outside but placed in a plastic cable cannel) it has to be or at least
egual to H05VV-F with section 3x1.5mm
