05 . On the side of the control unit, insert the battery connectors in the
two sockets.
CAUTION! – Do not invert polarity: the connector
grippers must face outwards (fig. 30) .
On completion of installation, after powering up the system, the batteries
will start to self-charge and will be operative only when fully charged (usu-
ally after 12 hours).
WARNINGS
To guarantee optimal lifetime of the buffer battery, the following warnings should be
observed:
• The buffer battery is an emergency device: Therefore it should only be used mod-
erately in the event of real necessity. Excessive and continuous use can lead to
overheating of the elements, which over time may reduce the normal lifetime of the
battery.
• Never leave the automation powered exclusively by the buffer battery for periods
longer than a day: The elements may overheat excessively and impair lifetime of
the battery.
Therefore, if absent from the installation site of the automation for prolonged peri-
ods, it is recommended to detach the buffer battery terminal connected to the
control unit.
• When the buffer battery is completely discharged, around 24 hours are required to
completely recharge.
• In the event of prolonged periods of disuse, the optional battery should be
removed and stored in a dry location to avoid the risk of leaks of harmful sub-
stances.
–––––––––––––––––––
Battery disposal
CAUTION! – Even if discharged, the batteries can contain pollutant sub-
stances and therefore must never be disposed of in common waste col-
lection points. Dispose of according to separate waste collection methods
as envisaged by current local standards.
CAUTION! - The point below (05 – electrical connection of
the buffer battery to the control unit ) must only be per-
formed after completing all installation and programming
phases, as the battery is an emergency power source.
5.3 – FIXING THE AUTOMATION TO THE WALL,
CEILING, AND DOOR
After assembly of the guide and gearmotor, fix the automation to the wall,
ceiling and door as follows.
01 . Using a suitable means of support (ladder, poles or similar) lift the
gearmotor from the ground an position at the required height so that
the guide brackets are placed against the ceiling and wall above the
door (
fig. 31 ). IMPORTANT – ( fig. 31-a ) align the guide and gearmo-
tor with the vertical axis of the door and perpendicular to the latter
(90° angle).
Note – In the case of up-and-over doors, the guide must
be aligned with the oscillating arm.
Also ensure observance of the values A , B , E in fig. 3 and values B ,
F in fig. 4 .
02 . Check the position of the guide, which must be perfectly horizontal,
and mark the 4 bracket fixture points, after which drill the relative
holes and insert the plugs (
fig. 32 ).
03 . Fix the automation to the ceiling and wall using screws and plugs
suited to the support material (
fig. 33 ).
Notes:
• Depending on the type of wall, the bracket at the end of the guide
can be fixed by means of the rivets or screws and plugs.
• Take care when choosing the method of bracket fixture to the ceil-
ing, taking into account the following:
– the bracket at the end of the guide must withstand the force
required to open and close the door;
– the ceiling mounted brackets must withstand the weight of the
gearmotor.
In both cases possible wear and deformation over time must be tak-
en into account.
