SLIDING GATE OPERATOR 

 

Introduction

 

The  Nice  24  Sliding  Gate Controller was designed to  take advantage of 

the  superior  torque  and  power  of  the  24  Volt  motor.  Conceived  as  a  “Dual  Supply” 
system,  the  operator  runs  efficiently  on  the  220Volt  Mains  supply  under  normal 
conditions,  and,  changing  over  seamlessly,  continues  to  run  from  the  on-board 
batteries  during  a  power  failure.  A  switch  mode  power  supply  is  used  to  convert  the 
mains  to  the  24  Volt  power  for  the  motor,  the  controller  and  accessories,  and  the 
charging  circuit,  which  ensures  that  the  batteries  are  fully  charged  at  the  correct 
voltage for long life. 
 

Performance

  Using  micro-processor  control  to  provide  ramp-up  and  ramp-down 

speed control, the Nice 24 starts smoothly, accelerates quickly to full speed (16,7metres 
per minute, one of the fastest operators available), slows down in the last half metre of 
travel and stops firmly and gently under electronic braking. 
 
Designed  to  operate  without  limit  switches  for  ease  of  installation,  the  unit  “learns”  the 
full extent of the gates travel by physically sensing the rail-stops, and then automatically 
leaves  a  small  safety  gap  at  each  end  during  normal  operation,  eliminating  noisy 
knocking. 
 

Features

 

 

Easy Programming   

An on-board display makes it easy to select and enter the required 

features,  which  include  Learning  Limits,  Auto-close  (none,  5,  10  or  20  seconds),  Safety 
beam  selection,  Obstacle  Sensing  Level,  Recording  Remote  controls  (up  to  16),  and 
Type of operation, which may be ‘Standard’ (Residential) or ‘Commercial’. 

On-board Radio Receiver   

The controller has a Digitronic e-Key receiver on board that 

provides state-of-the-art secure access control using Keeloq code-hopping technology. 
The receiver stores up to 16 transmitters in non-volatile memory. 

Optional  external  Lamp       

External  220V  lamps  may  be  connected  to  the  controller, 

which  will  come  on  with  every  gate  operation,  and  time-out  3  minutes  later.  These 
lamps  may  turned  or  off  by  means  of  a  connection  to  the  intercom.  The  combined 
power of these lamps is restricted to 250W. 

Easy  Installation     

Connections  to  the  controller  are  made  by  means  of  plug-able 

terminal  blocks,  simplifying  installation  and  maintenance.  These  connections  include 
the intercom connection, partial opening for pedestrians, lock, safety beam, etc. 
The configuration of the machine and the transmitter are stored in a plug-able memory 
chip,  which  can  be  easily  transferred  to  a  replacement  controller,  making  re-
programming un-necessary. 
 

Installation   

Install the operator according to the enclosed instructions.  

 

Important!

 For safety reasons, the gate must have physical end-stops in both the closed 

and  open  positions.  A  sturdy  rail-stop 

must

  be  securely  fitted  to  the  track  of  the  sliding 

gate in the fully open position. In the closed position, the gate normally stops against the 
gatepost. If not, a sturdy rail-stop 

must

 be securely fitted in the closed position as well.
