You re-engage the motor of the operator by turning the 
key one full turn in the direction of the gate’s opening. 
Remove the key and replace the plug.  

General Operating Logic 

Given the electromechanical nature of the 412 Operator, 
the behavior of the operator when it encounters an 
obstacle is always the same 

no matter

 

which

 

logical 

mode of operation has been set on the control panel.

 

 
If an obstruction interrupts the gate’s opening, the gate 
stops its movement (depending on the weight of the 
obstruction) though the motor continues to run its entire 
cycle. Sending a signal after the interruption in opening 
causes the gate to close. 

WARNING!

 The pressure the gate leaf applies 

to an obstruction is determined by the torque 
adjustment setting. It is the installer's 
responsibility to make sure the torque is 
correctly set. 

If an obstacle interrupts the gate’s closing, the gate 
stops its movement, though the motor continues to run 
its entire cycle. Sending another signal causes the gate 
to reopen. 

WARNING! 

Any triggered reversing or 

stopping device prevents an activating 
command from being recognized. You cannot 
activate the gate to open or close until the 
reversing or stopping device has been cleared. 

Logical Operating Modes 

Note

: Reversing devices are either opening 

reversing devices or closing reversing devices, 
depending on where the device is connected on 
the terminal strip. FAAC strongly recommends 
the use of reversing devices no matter which 
logic you choose for your gate operation. 

The logics available on the 450 MPS control panel are 
briefly described below. You can find a complete 
description of each logic in the tables on the following 
pages. 
 

• 

A (automatic):

 The gate opens on command 

and automatically closes after a pause phase. A 
second command on opening is ignored; a 
second command during the pause phase 
causes the gate to close immediately; a second 
command during closing reopens the gate. 

• 

S (security):

 The automatic mode is like A 

logic except that a second command during 
opening immediately closes both gate leaves. 

• 

E (semi-automatic):

 This mode requires a 

command to open and a command to close. A 
second command during opening or closing 
causes the gate leaves to stop all motion. A 
third command then closes the gate. 

• 

EP (semi-automatic, step by step):

 This 

mode requires a command to open and a 
command to close. A second command during 
opening or closing causes the gate leaves to 
stop all motion. A third command then 
reverses the previous motion of the gate leaves. 

• 

B (manned, pulsed):

 This mode is designed 

for guard station use and requires a three-
button switch (pulsed) to open, close, and stop 
the gate barrier. 

• 

C (manned and constant):

 This mode is 

designed for guard station use and requires at 
least a two-button switch (constant pressure 
required on each button) to open, close, and 
stop the gate barrier (no pressure on a button 
stops the gate).  

WARNING!

 FAAC strongly recommends that 

you install a non-contact reversing device for 
all gate systems.  

WARNING! 

Any triggered reversing or 

stopping device prevents an activating 
command from being recognized. You cannot 
activate the gate to open or close until the 
reversing or stopping device has been cleared. 

Refer to the operating logic tables on the next two pages 
for more detail.
