INSTALLATION MANUAL
1) FOREWORD
The ARES actuator is highly versatile in terms of installation options due to the
extremely low position of the pinion, the actuator’s compact nature and the
height and depth adjustment features it offers. The adjustable electronic torque
limiter provides anti-crush safety. Manual emergency operation is extremely easy
to perform using just a knob.
Stopping at end of travel is controlled by electromechanical microswitches.
The built-in control panel controls the start relays and safety devices (photocells,
safety edge) each time before performing any operation.

3) TUBE ARRANGEMENT Fig.A
Install the electrical system referring to the standards in force for electrical
systems CEI 64-8, IEC 364, harmonization document HD 384 and other national
standards.
4) PREPARATION FOR MOTOR MOUNTING FIG.B
• Make a hole in the ground to accommodate the concrete pad, with anchors
embedded in the base plate for fastening the gearbox assembly, keeping to
the distances featured in FIG.B.
• To keep the base plate in the right position during installation, it may be
useful to weld two iron plates under the track to which the anchors can then
be welded (FIG.M).
5) MOUNTING THE MOTOR FIG.C
6) MOUNTING DRIVE ACCESSORIES FIG.D-D1
7) RACK CENTRING WITH RESPECT TO PINION FIG.N-O1-P
DANGER - Welding must be performed by a competent person issued
with the necessary personal protective equipment as prescribed by
the safety rules in force FIG.O.
8) FASTENING LIMIT SWITCH BRACKETS FIG.E
9) STOPS FIG.Q
DANGER - The gate must be fitted with mechanical stops to halt its
travel both when opening and closing, thus preventing the gate from
coming off the top guide. Said stops must be fastened firmly to the ground,
a few centimetres beyond the electric stop point.
10) MANUAL RELEASE (See USER GUIDE -FIG.2-).
Warning Do not JERK the gate open and closed, instead push it GENTLY to
the end of its travel.
----------------------------------------------------------
11) TERMINAL BOARD WIRING Fig. F-G
Once suitable electric cables have been run through the raceways and the auto-
mated device’s various components have been fastened at the predetermined
points, the next step is to connect them as directed and illustrated in the diagrams
contained in the relevant instruction manuals. Connect the live, neutral and earth
wire (compulsory). The mains cable must be clamped in the relevant cable gland
(FIG.R-ref.P1), and the accessories’ wires in the cable gland (FIG.R-ref.P2), while
the earth wire with the yellow/green-coloured sheath must be connected in the
relevant terminal (FIG.R-ref.S).
TERMINAL DESCRIPTION

tion. If the transmitter’s range is limited, move the antenna to a
more suitable position.

- IMPORTANT NOTE: THE FIRST TRANSMITTER MEMORIZED MUST BE
IDENTIFIED BY ATTACHING THE KEY LABEL (MASTER).
In the event of manual programming, the first transmitter assigns the RECEIVER’S
KEY CODE: this code is required to subsequently clone the radio transmitters.
The Clonix built-in on-board receiver also has a number of important advanced
features:
• Cloning of master transmitter (rolling code or fixed code).
• Cloning to replace transmitters already entered in receiver.
• Transmitter database management.
• Receiver community management.
To use these advanced features, refer to the universal handheld programmer’s
instructions and to the general receiver programming guide.
