DAAB COMMUNICATION CARD DB512 INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Revision 1

Functions using add-in card DB512

Two EP105s can send interlocks and start signals between each other through communication. Each of the doors must first be 

commissioned and tested locally in accordance with the DAAB Automatic Control Unit EP105 instruction manual. The terms 

local door and remote door are used in the text below. The local door is the door currently being configured. The remote door 

is the door connected to the local door via the communication cable.

Communication

To pass signals and values from one EP105 to another EP105, configure C600. If C600 = 0, the communication is 

disabled. Start by setting C600 to 1, interlock, on both of  the controls. To then start communication, set C610 to 1 

on any automatic control unit. The automatic control unit with C610=1 immediately starts transmitting values to the 

automatic control unit with C610=2, which then responds by returning the values. If  communication fails, the error 

message E614 appears in the display. This error message means that the automatic control unit with C610=1 does 

not receive a response to transmitted messages. Possible causes: only one or both of  the automatic control units is or 

are configured for interlock communication in channel C600, on both automatic control units C610 is set to the same 

value; or one of  the units is switched off. To acknowledge the error message, press any programming button. The error 

message continues to appear for as long as the transmitting automatic control unit does not receive a response.

C614 Blocking of local door

The opening or closing function of  the door is blocked by the position of  the remote door in the conditions indicated 

in this channel. The setting 0 does not produce any blocking of  the local door, which can be opened or closed 

independently of  the position of  the remote door. The value 1 produces blocking of  opening of  the local door until 

the remote door is closed. It is always the door that first receives an opening signal via a programmable input, vehicle 

detector or radio that will open first of  the two doors. Note that not all combinations of  C614 on both doors produces 

functioning blocking functions.

C615 Opening memory, cancel blocking with stop

Two different configurations are made in this channel. Firstly if  the local door has to remember an open signal, and 

secondly if  stop buttons and the stop circuit are to cancel blocking of  the local door.

 

Opening memory means that the local door remembers the open signal that occurred when the local door was blocked 

by the remote door. If  C615 is set to 1 or 3, the local door remembers the local open signal. If C615 is set to 0 or 2, the 

local door 

does not

 remember the local open signal. At this setting, the remote door must reach a position such that it 

longer blocks the local door, so that a local opening signal will open the local door.

Alternatives 0 and 1 mean that an interrupted safety circuit or activated stop button on the remote door 

does not 

cancel 

blocking of  the local door. Alternatives 2 and 3 mean that an interrupted safety circuit or activated stop button on the 

remote door cancels blocking of  the local door. At this setting it will be possible to open the local door, even if  the 

position of  the remote door blocks the local door, if  a stop button is depressed on the remote door. 

Note that the stop circuit is required to be interrupted for at least 5 seconds to cancel a blocking!

Opening of remote door

When the interlock and blocking function between two doors is used, the remote door is operated using an opening 

function via programmable input, vehicle detector DB402 or radio card DB411. For programmable input, opening of  

remote door is configured in channels P190-P690; for the vehicle detector in channels d190 and d290 and for the radio 

card in channels r190 to r90.

Programmable inputs INP1 to INP6

The channels for “Interlock opening”, P190-P690, are used to transfer an opening signal from local door to remote door. 

Note that the operating function in channels P160-P660 for the same programmable input must be set to 1, Open.

The channels for “ 

Cancelled 

blocking”, P196-P696, are used to close the blocking function in C614. With a constant 

signal on the programmable input INP2, when P296=1, C614 will be regarded as set to 0, no blocking. The setting 

applies to both local door and remote door.

The channels for “Disabled automatic closing”, P198-P698, are used to prevent automatic closing from closing the 

remote door. With a constant signal on the programmable input INP1, when P198=1 on the local door, the remote door 

will be held open. The local door is held open by the setting P180=2, Automatic closing disabled with constant signal.

Example of use

Examples of  some systems with interlock system are described below. Each new example is highlighted in 

bold

.

Opening two doors simultaneously:

To open two adjacent doors at the same time, activate a programmable input, e.g. INP1 for interlock opening. P160 = 1 

means that the local door opens and P190 = 1 means that the open command is transmitted to the remote door.
