10.6 - 24VDC accessories’ power
supply
Nominal voltage 24VDC, max. 250mA, output for powering
external accessories as photocells, radio receivers, etc.
m
Real voltage output can be greater then nominal
value, check the compatibility of external accessories.
10.7 - Gate open pilot light
When photo-test (deactivated by default - see Paragraph 14.1) is
not used, it is possible to connect a gate indication light 24Vdc
max 3W to the GSI input. This light will signal the gate’s position:
gate closed: light OFF
gate open: light turned ON in fixed mode
gate opening: light flashes
gate closing: light flashes fast
m
Maximum 3W/24VDC.
10.8 - Limit switches
The limit switch inputs are NC dry contacts (voltage free).
m
These terminals must be left free if no limit switches
are used to define gate travel.
10.9 - Wired commands
Inputs for the start, stop and pedestrian wired commands can be
customised to open, stop and close (Paragraph 16.1).
They can be locked to prevent tampering with the system
(Paragraph 15.2).
START CONTACT
The START input is a normally open gate activation command by
wire.
m
Connecting power to this input will void warranty.
The activation method is set up by dip switches 3 and 4 - see
Paragraph 4.1 . This input is a voltage free (dry contact) only.
m
TIMER FUNCTION: if START contact is kept closed
(for instance through a timer-controlled or bistable relay),
control unit opens the gate and leaves the gate opened.
The automation does not accept closing commands
(neither automatic nor wired) until START contact is
reopened. In this mode, dip switch 3 STEP is set to OFF
and dip 4 AUTO to ON to ensure that the gate never
remains locked open.
m
If multiple START contacts are connected, connect
the contacts in parallel.
m
If START contact is kept closed during the control unit
starting after a blackout, the gate will immediatelly excute
the start command.
PEDESTRIAN CONTACT
The pedestrian PED input (term in al s 16-18 ) is a partial opening
gate command (for pedestrian access) by wire.
m
Connecting power to this input will void warranty.
With double swing gate only MOTOR1 is opened by it.
To customise the opening width, the pedestrian programming
sequence must be carried out (see Paragraph 6.2).
STOP CONTACT
The STOP input is for immediately stopping and locking any
movement of the gate.
This input is a normally closed and voltage free (dry contact) only
m
Connecting power to this input will void warranty.
To restore operation this contact must be closed.
10.10 - Antenna
Antenna terminal for transmitter signal reception. The
preconnected wire acts as antenna.
For extending the reception range, an external antenna can be
connected (present in the King Gates flashing lights range).
m
If an external antenna is connected, the preconnected
wire must be disconnected.
10.11 - Back-up battery / Energy
saving
STARG8 control unit can be equipped with Back up battery or
solar power system (optionals).
To connect the back up battery and charger (BATK3)
or the solar kit (GO GREEN), see their dedicated manuals.
The back up battery is charged all times by the mains power and
it automatically powering the gate in case of power breakdown.
Note: it is recommened to use the energy saving modality
when back up battery (or the GO GREEN solar kit) is used.
See Paragraph 17.2 for activate this modality and for
photocell’s energy saving connection.
(This function shuts off power to the photocells when the control
unit is in standby, thus reducing consumption and increasing
battery life).
m
If energy saving modality is activated, the control
panel’s LEDs will only remain lit for two minutes after the
last operation in order to reduce energy consumption.
