Procedure II
Discovering the origin of the problem
• Motor
doesn’t
work.
• Make sure you
have power supply
connected to control
board and if it is
working properly.
• Still not working.
• Consult a qualified
MOTORLINE technician.
• Motor
doesn’t
move but
makes
noise.
• Unlock motor
and move the gate
by hand to check
for mechanical
problems on the
movement.
• Is the gate stuck?
• Consult a qualified gates
technician.
1 • Check all motion axis and associated motion systems related with the gate and automatisme (rails, pulleys, bolts, hinges, etc) to find out what is
the problem.
• The gate moves
easily?
• Consult a qualified
MOTORLINE technician.
• Motors
open but
doesn’t
close.
• Unlock motor(s)
and move the roller
by hand to closed
position. Block
the motor again
and turn off power
supply for 5 seconds.
Reconnect it and
send order to open
gate using remote
control.
• Gate opened but
didn’t close again.
1 • Check if there is any
obstacle in front of the
photocells;
2 • Check if any of the
control devices (Key
Selector, Pushbutton, Video
Intercom, etc.) are stucked
and sending permanent
signal to control board;
3 • Consult a qualified
MOTORLINE technician.
• Motor
doesn’t
make
complete
course.
• Unlock motor
and move gate
by hand to check
for mechanical
problems on the
gate.
• Encountered
problems?
• Consult an experienced
gates expert.
1 • Check all motion axis and associated motion systems related with the gate and automatisme (rails, pulleys, bolts, hinges, etc) to find out what is
the problem.
• The gate moves
easily?
• Consult a qualified
MOTORLINE technician.
1 • Open control box and check if
it has 230V power supply;
2 • Check input fuses;
3 • Disconnect motors from
control board and test them by
connecting directly to power
supply in order to find out if they
have problems (see page 11B).
4 • If the motors work, the
problem is on the control board.
Pull it out and send it to our
MOTORLINE technical services
for diagnosis;
5 • If the motors don’t work,
remove them from installation
site and send to our MOTORLINE
technical services for diagnosis.
1 • Check capacitors, testing
operator with new capacitor;
2 • If capacitors are not the
problem, disconnect motors
from control board and it them
by connecting directly to power
supply in order to find out if it has
problems (see page 11B).
3 • f the motors work, the problem
is from control board. Pull it out
and send it to our MOTORLINE
technical services for diagnosis;
4 • If the motors don’t work,
remove them from installation
site and send to our MOTORLINE
technical services for diagnosis.
1 • Check capacitors, testing with
new capacitors;
2 • If capacitors are not the
problem, disconnect motor
from control board and test it
by connecting directly to power
supply in order to find out if it is
broken;
3 • If the motor(s) doesn’t work,
remove it from installation site
and send to our MOTORLINE
technical services for diagnosis.
4 • If motor work well and move
gate at full force during the entire
course, the problem is from
controller. Set force using trimmer
on the board. Make a new working
time programming, giving suffient
time for opening and closing with
appropriate force (consult control
board manual).
5 • If this doesn’t work, remove
control board and send it to
MOTORLINE technical services.
NOTE:
Setting force of the controller
should be suficiente to make
the gate open and close without
stopping, but should stop and
invert with a little effort from a
person. In case of safety systems
failure, the gate shall never cause
physical damaged to obstacles
(vehicles, people, etc.).
All control boards
MOTORLINE
have LEDs that
easily allow to conclude which devices are
with anomalies. All safety devices LEDs (Le)
in normal situations remain On. All "START"
circuits LEDs in normal situations remain Off.
If LEDs devices are not all On, there is some
security systems malfunction (photocells,
safety edges). If "START" circuits LEDs are turn
(Op and Cl), there is a control device sending
permanent signal.
A) SECURITY SYSTEMS:
1 •Close with a shunt all safety systems
on the control board (check manual of the
control board in question). If the automated
system starts working normally check for
the problematic device.
2 • Remove one shunt at a time until you find
the malfunction device.
3 • Replace it for a functional device and
check if the motor works correctly with all
the other devices. If you find another one
defective, follow the same steps until you find
all the problems.
B) START SYSTEMS:
1 • Disconnect all wires connected to the
START connector.
2 • If the LED turned OFF, try reconnecting one
device at a time until you find the defective
device.
NOTE:
In case procedures described in sections
A
)
and
B
) don’t result, remove control board and
send to our
MOTORLINE
technical services for
diagnosis.
