IMPORTANT REMARKS

For any installation problem please contact our Customer Service
at the number 

+39-0172.812411 

operating Monday to Friday

from 8:30 to 12:30 and from 14:00 to 18:00.

V2 has the right to modify the product without previous
notice; it also declines any responsibility to damage or
injury to people or things caused by improper use or
wrong installation.

Please read this instruction manual very carefully

before installing and programming your control unit.

• This instruction manual is only for qualified technicians, 

who specialize in installations and automations.

• The contents of this instruction manual do not concern the 

end user.

• Every programming and/or every maintenance service 

should be done only by qualified technicians.

AUTOMATION MUST BE IMPLEMENTED IN COMPLIANCE
WITH THE EUROPEAN REGULATIONS IN FORCE:

EN 60204-1

(Machinery safety. electrical equipment of 
machines, part 1: general rules) 

EN 12445

(Safe use of automated locking devices, 
test methods)

EN 12453

(Safe use of automated locking devices, 
requirements)

• The installer must provide for a device (es. magnetotermical 

switch) ensuring the omnipolar sectioning of the equipment 
from the power supply.
The standards require a separation of the contacts 
of at least 3 mm in each pole (EN 60335-1).

• After making connections on the terminal board, use one

hose clamp to fix dangerous voltage wires near the terminal 
board and another hose clamp to fix safety low voltage wires 
used for accessories connection; this way, in case of 
accidental detachment of a conducting wire, dangerous 
voltage parts will not come into contact with safety low 
voltage ones.

• The plastic case has an IP55 insulation; to connect flexible

or rigid pipes, use pipefittings having the same insulation 
level. 

• Installation requires mechanical and electrical skills, 

therefore it shall be carried out by qualified personnel only,
who can issue the Compliance Certificate concerning the 
whole installation (EEC Machine Directive 89/392, Annex IIA).

• The automated vehicular gates shall comply with the 

following rules: EN 12453, EN 12445, EN 12978 as well
as any local rule in force. 

• Also the automation upstream electric system shall comply

with the laws and rules in force and be carried out 
workmanlike.

• The door thrust force adjustment shall be measured

by means of a proper tool and adjusted according to
the max. limits, which EN 12453 allows.

• We recommend to make use of an emergency 

button, to be installed by the automation (connected 
to the control unit STOP input) so that the gate may 
be immediately stopped in case of danger.

• Always remember to connect the earth according to 

current standards (EN 60335-1, EN 60204-1).

DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY

V2 S.p.A. hereby declare that CITY1 products conform to the
essential requirements established in the following directives:

- 89/336/CEE (EMC Directive in accordance with standards 

EN 55014-1, EN 55014-2, EN 61000-3-2, 61000-3-3)

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROL UNIT

The digital control unit 

CITY1

is an innovative V2 product that

guarantees a safe and reliable automation of leaf swing or
sliding gates.

CITY1

is provided with a display that, not only makes 

programming simple, but also allows a continuous monitoring of
the input statuses; in addition, thanks to a menu structure, the
working schedule and the operation logic can be set easily.

In compliance with the European standards concerning 
electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility 
(EN 60335-1, EN 50081-1 and EN 50082-1) it has been 
equipped with the low voltage circuit total electric insulation
(motors included) from the network voltage.

Other characteristics:
• Automatic control for the null current relay switch.
• Power adjustment with independent wave shutting 

on both the two motors. 

• Obstacle detection by means of monitoring start 

condenser voltage. 

• Automatic learning of the operation time. 
• Operation by means of mechanical ends of stroke 

connected to the gearcase or connected in series to 
the motor. 

• Tests for safety devices (photocells, safety ribbons and 

triacs) before each opening.

• Deactivation of safety inputs through the configuration 

menu: no jumper is required for terminals concerning safety 
devices that have not been installed, yet.  You will only need 
to disable this function from its relevant menu. 

• Control unit programming can be locked through the optional

CL1

key.

• Also available in the 

CITY1-ECD

model (p/n 12G033), which 

allows you to control ENCODER-equipped 230V motors.
