lanes can operate in 2 distinct modes, to be specified at the time of ordering:
‘SECURI-SAFE’ mode focusing on Safety (default mode):
When a forced entry is attempted in either direction of passage (detected by the angle
encoder), the electromagnetic brake is applied to lock the obstacles.
‘EGRESS’ optional mode focusing on User Protection and complying with fire safety standards:
-
Obstacles are released in the direction of evacuation only (direction B) by a pressure
of max. 220 N).
This initial movement (detected by the encoder) is then completed by the motors, so
as to completely free up passage.
-
A sound and light alarm notifies users and the guard of an evacuation in progress.
-
When no presence is detected in the lane, the obstacles will automatically close again
and the equipment will return to the previous operating mode
Most of the operations described below can be configured using the HMI (
Human Machine
Interface
) (
see dedicated manual).

At rest, obstacles may be in one of the following states (configurable):
NC = Normally Closed (default mode, to which the descriptions in this manual refer, unless
otherwise indicated):
At rest, the obstacles are in the closed position and open upon receipt of passage
authorization. Passage violations (intrusion & fraud) are signalled by audible and visual alarms
(pictograms) and the obstacles are held in the closed position or close automatically in order
to prevent any intrusion into the secured zone.
NO = Normally Open:
At rest, the obstacles are in the open position. The obstacles only close if a user attempts to
pass through without authorization. In this case, too, audible and visual alarms are activated.
FAL = Free Access Lane:
The obstacles are in the open position in the direction of evacuation at all times (direction B).
Only sound and light alarms are activated in case of unauthorized access and violations.
