GENERAL SAFETY RULES
If installed and used correctly, the C850 automated system will
ensure a high degree of safety.
Some simple rules regarding behaviour will avoid any accidental
trouble:
• Do not stand near the automated system and do not allow
children and other people or things to stand there, especially
while it is operating.
• Keep radiocontrols or any other pulse generator well away
from children to prevent the automated system from being
activated involuntarily.
• Do not allow children to play with the automated system.
• Do not willingly obstruct gate movement.
• Prevent any branches or shrubs from interfering with gate
movement.
• Keep light signalling systems efficient and clearly visible.
• Do not attempt to manually operate the gate unless it has
been released.
• In the event of malfunctions, release the gate to allow access
and wait for qualified technical personnel to do the necessary
work.
• After enabling manual operation, switch off the power supply
to the system before restoring normal operation.
• Do not make any alterations to the components of the auto-
mated system.
• Do not attempt any kind of repair of direct action whatsoever
and contact qualified personnel only.
• Call in qualified personnel at least every 6 months to check
the efficiency of the automated system, safety devices and
earth connection.
DESCRIPTION
The C850 automated system is ideal for controlling vehicle access
areas of medium transit frequency.
The C850 automated system for sliding gates is an electro-
mechanical operator transmitting motion to the sliding gate via a
rack pinion or chain appropriately coupled to the gate.
Operation of the sliding gate is controlled by an electronic control
unit housed inside the operator.
When, with the gate closed, the unit receives an opening command
by radiocontrol or from another suitable device, it activates the
motor until the opening position is reached.
If automatic operation was set, the gate re-closes automatically
after the selected pause time has elapsed.
If the semi-automatic operation was set, a second pulse must be
sent to close the gate again.
An opening pulse during re-closing, always causes movement to

be reversed.
A stop pulse (if provided) always stops movement.
The light signalling indicates that the gate is currently moving.
For details on sliding gate behaviour in different function logics,
consult the installation technician.
The automated systems include obstacle-detection and/or safety
devices (photocells, edges) that prevent the gate from closing
when there is an obstacle in the area they protect.
The system ensures mechanical locking when the motor is not
operating and, therefore, it is not necessary to install any lock.
Manual opening is, therefore, only possible by using the release
system.
A handy manual release makes it possible to move the gate in the
event of a power failure or malfunction.
MANUAL OPERATION
To manually move the gate, we recommend cutting off electri-
cal power. Rotating the knob prevents any motor movement.
To release the operator proceed as follows:
1. Insert the key provided and turn it clockwise as shown in Fig.1 ref.1.
2. Turn the release system clockwise, until the mechanical stop is
reached, Fig.1 ref.2.
3. Open and close the gate manually.
RESTORING NORMAL OPERATION
To restore normal operation proceed as follows:
1. Turn the release system anti-clockwise, until its stop is reached,
Fig.2 ref.2.
2. Turn the key anti-clockwise and remove it from the lock, Fig.2 ref.1.
Turning the release system knob clockwise will prevent any
movement of the motor.
Operator releasing and locking operations can be carried out
in any gate position.
MAINTENANCE
We recommend checking system operation every six months, with
special attention to the safety and release devices.
