4. CONNECTIONS AND OPERATION
4.1 TERMINAL BOARD M1
4.1.1 24V power supply
Terminals “1-2”. This is the input to which the secondary winding of the transformer, powered at 24 V~ 50/60 Hz, should be connected. When
power is supplied by the transformer, this is signalled by the POWER LED lighting up.
4.1.2 Batteries
Terminals “3-4”. The control unit is designed to operate with two buffer batteries (optional item) with minimum characteristics as indicated
on the table in paragraph 2. When powered, the control unit keeps the batteries charged. The batteries begin to operate when the
transformer no longer supplies power.
N.B.: power supplied by batteries should be considered an emergency situation – the number of possible operations depends on the
quality of the batteries, structure to be moved, and time elapsing since mains power failed, etc, etc..
N.B.: observe the power polarity of the batteries
4.1.3 Accessories
Terminals “5-6”. Output for powering external accessories (24 Vdc).
NB.: Maximum load of accessories is 500 mA.
NB.: observe power supply polarity
4.1.4 Gearmotor
Terminals “7-8”. Connect the motor to a power supply of 24Vdc 80W max.
4.2 TERMINAL BOARD M2
4.2.1 Earthing
Terminal “9”. Connect the mains earth cable.
N.B.: This connection is essential to ensure the control unit operates correctly
4.2.2 Opening limit-switch
Terminals “10-11”. The status of this input is signalled by the FCA LED. Connect the limit-switch activating the opening movement. The
effect differs depending on programming effected with dip-switch 3. If not using the limit-switch, jumper the input.
4.2.3 Closing limit-switch
Terminals “10-12”. The status of this input is signalled by the FCC LED. Connect the limit-switch activating the closing movement. If not
using the limit-switch, jumper the input..
4.2.4 Flashing lamp
Terminals “13-14”. Use a flashing-light with steady light (flashing is produced by the control unit) on operating voltage of 24 Vdc 15W max.
It is useful to connect it before programming, as it indicates its phases. It produces a pre-flashing steady light for 0.5 seconds when opening,
and for 1.5 seconds when closing. If the automatic logic is ON, when it reaches the opening stop-point, the flashing-light stays on with
a steady light for 5 sec signalling to the user that it will close automatically. When the gate is open, the flashing-light is OFF, and only flashes
when the safety devices are engaged for a maximum time of 10 sec, after which the flashing-light goes OFF even with the safety devices
engaged.
4.2.5 Indicator-light/Courtesy light
Terminals “13-15”. This terminal is in parallel with the lamp-holder on the card. Use a 24Vdc 15W max lamp. The effect differs depending
on programming effected with dip-switch 7.
4.3 TERMINAL BOARD M3
4.3.1 Close
Terminals “16-21”. The status of this input is signalled by the CLOSE LED. Any device (e.g. push-button, radio control, etc.) can be connected
to this circuit. By closing a contact, the circuit generates a pulse for total closing of gate.
4.3.2 Start
Terminals “17-21”. The status of this input is signalled by the START LED. Any device (e.g. push-button, radio control, etc.) can be connected
to this circuit. By closing a contact, the circuit generates a pulse for total opening and/or closing of gate. Its operating mode is set by dip-
switch 5.
4.3.3 Closing Photocells
Terminals “18-21”. The status of this input is signalled by the FTC LED. Any safety device (e.g. photocells, safety edge, etc.) can be
connected to this circuit. By opening a contact, the circuit protects closing motion.
N.B.: If safety devices are not connected, fit a jumper at input. To install several safety devices, connect the NC contacts in series.
4.3.4 Stop
Terminals “19-21”. The status of this input is signalled by the STP LED. Any device (e.g. push-button, pressure switch, etc.) can be connected
to this circuit. By opening a contact, the circuit stops gate movement. The set cycle will restart only if a successive opening or closing pulse
is received.
N.B.: If STOP devices are not connected, fit a jumper at input. To install several STOP devices, connect the NC contacts in series.
4.3.5 Opening Photocells
Terminals “20-21”. The status of this input is signalled by the FTO LED. Any safety device (photocells, safety egdes, etc.) can be connected
to this circuit, which, by opening a contact, has a safety effect on the opening motion.
N.B.: If no safety devices are connected, fit a jumper at input. To install several safety devices, connect the NC contacts in series.
5. FITTING A REMOTE CONTROL RECEIVER CARD
The control unit is designed to house a 5-pin radio-receiver module. Installation procedure: turn off power and fit the module on connector
M5 inside the control unit.
ATTENTION: To avoid damaging the receiver and thus irreparably jeopardising its operation, the receiver must be fitted while observing
the direction specified in paragraph 9 (Connection lay-out).
This done, observe the receiver instructions on memory storage of the remote control. When the remote control has been stored, it acts
just like any command device on START.
