CAUTION!
- If forced to install the gearmotor on the left-hand side of
the gate, refer to the instructions in STEP 6.1.

Establishing the device connection layout
The product envisages a “Bus” type connection between all system
devices, using a single cable with two electrical wires. In this type of con-
nection, data communication between devices is via cable, using the spe-
cific protocol named
“
Bus-Moovo
”.
CAUTION!
– on the Bus system, only devices compatible with this proto-
col may be installed in the system.
On a “Bus” network, devices can be connected using various connection
configurations, and in each one, each device becomes a node of this net-
work. The possible connection layouts are the following:
–
“
star
”
: In this configuration, each device is autonomous as it is connect-
ed directly to the two Bus terminals on the control unit.
–
“
chain
”
: In this configuration one device is connected to another and
the latter to another and so on, like links of a chain. Therefore only the first
device in the chain is connected to the two Bus terminals on the control
unit.
–
“
mixed
”
: this configuration is a combination of the two configurations
described above.
To select the most suitable connection configuration for the connection of
all system devices, refer to the example shown in
fig. 7
/
fig. 17
. In gener-
al, it is recommended to connect the flashing light as the first device con-
nected to the control unit.

Typical reference system
Fig. 5,
shows an example of an automation system set up with
Moovo
components. These parts are positioned according to a typical standard
layout. The following components are used:
a
- Electromechanical gearmotor
b
- Rack
c
- Pair of photocells (wall-mounted)
d
- Flashing light
e
- Control keypad (wall-mounted)
f
- Pair of photocells (on posts)

Establishing positions of components
With reference to
fig. 5
, locate the approximate position for installation of
each component envisaged in the system. In particular, to establish the
position of the flashing light, refer also to
fig. 20
.
Warning
– The “fixed” control devices must be visible from the gate but
positioned far from moving parts.

Establishing the positions of the gearmotor
The gearmotor is factory set to be installed on the right-hand side of the
gate.
