Installation Sequence
1.
Perform a Risk Assessment for the system and resolve by design as many risks as possible
2.
Secure the card into a suitable enclosure, please note that a EP104-1 will only run 1 motor
and a EP104-2 will run 2 motors or just 1 motor
3.
Mount the motors as detailed in their relevant instructions
4.
Use suitable cabling for the motors and accessories (Encoders should be wired in a separate
duct to the motor supply cables and ideally a screened cable)
5.
Wire the electronic control board as per Page 3 and Page 4 for the power supply, motor,
encoders, stop circuit and photocell circuit
6.
Power up the EP104 Board
7.
Verify the status of the LED’s as per Page 6
8.
Wire in an Opening trigger as per Page 8 into Input 1
9.
Familiarise yourself with how to program the EP104 control board as per Page 5
10.
Begin Basic Programming of the EP104 on Page 6 and Page 7
11.
Provide an opening command to verify that the system works correctly, it should open and
require another command to Input 2 to close again.
12.
If Automatic Closing is required, adjust paramenter C500 as per Page 8. It should now from
a closed position, open on Input 1 and when fully open the “Start” LED will begin to flash as
it counts down the pause time and then automatically close (barring any permanent
commands or safety circuits being breached
13.
Connect Safety Devices to the system as deemed required by the Risk Assessment carried
out previously.
a.
Hard Wired Safety Edges can be wired as per Page 7
b.
Wireless Safety Edges can be connected via the same terminals as in “13-a” but the
output of the Wireless Safety Edge system should be configured to output a resistive
circuit the BUS 2easy connection if using the FAAC XTR and XTS Wireless Receiver
system
c.
Traditional Photocells can be wired and configured as per Page 4
d.
XGuard Laser Curtains would be configured as Traditional Photocells in 14.c
14.
Connect any additional activation commands as per Page 8
15.
If using either Safety Edges or Inherent Obstacle Detection as part of the Risk Assessment,
there are useful Functions that can be modified to assist in attaining compliance on Page 40
of the main EP104 manual
16.
If using XGuard Laser Curtains, please test these in accordance with BS EN 12445/12453
17.
Hand over all relevant documentation to the end customer as required by the Technical File
and the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008
