To test the control unit, perform the following operations:
1. Set Dip Switch 1 to ON (Semi-automatic operation)
If the connections required for activation of the Phototest function have been made, set Dip Switch no.10 to ON (Phototest function).
Set all the other Dip-Switches to OFF
2. Activate an Open impulse and make sure that:
- the flashing lamp activates
- an opening manoeuvre starts
- the movement stops when the opening limit switch FCA is reached or at the end of the working time
3. Activate a Close impulse and make sure that:
- the flashing lamp activates
- a closing manoeuvre starts
- the movement stops when the closing limit switch FCC is reached or at the end of the working time.
4. Start an opening manoeuvre and check that during the manoeuvre the triggering of a device:
- Connected to the “Stop” input causes an immediate stop and a short reverse run
- Connected to the constant resistance Stop input (8,2K
Ω
) causes an immediate stop and a short reverse run.
- connected to the Photo input has no effect
5. Start a closing manoeuvre and check that during the manoeuvre the cut-in of a device:
- Connected to the “Stop” input causes an immediate stop and a short reverse run.
- Connected to the “constant resistance Stop” input (8,2K
Ω
) causes an immediate stop and a short reverse run.
- Connected to the “Photo” input stops and reverses the manoeuvre
6. On inputs used, make sure that the activation of the input triggers a step in the following sequence:
- Step-by-step Input:
open-stop-close-stop sequence.
- Open Input:
open-stop-open-stop sequence.
- Close Input:
close-stop-close-stop sequence.
7. If the “Phototest” function is used, check the efficiency of the test:
- Interrupt the “Photo” photocell, then start a manoeuvre and check that it is not performed
- Short the “Photo” photocell contact, then start a manoeuvre and check that it is not performed
8. Adjust the force to the lowest value that enables the proper movement of the leaf
9. Perform the tests for measuring the Impact Forces as required by EN 12445.
If after the completion of the testing process additional functions are activated, specific testing of these functions must be performed.
In the manual operating mode, the OPEN input enables an opening
movement, while the CLOSE input enables a closing movement. The
STEP-BY-STEP input enables an alternating opening and closing
movement.
Movement stops as soon as the input command stops. During an
opening manoeuvre, movement will stop when the limit switch is trig-
gered; during a closing manoeuvre, movement will stop if the “Pho-
tocell” or the sensitive edge enable signal fails, or when the limit
switch is triggered. During both opening and closing manoeuvres,
the activation of the “ALT” command or of the sensitive edge will
always cause an immediate stopping of movement and a short
reverse run. When a movement is stopped, stop the input command
before giving a command to start a new movement.
When one of the automatic modes (Semiautomatic, Automatic or
Close Always) is operational, a command impulse to the “OPEN”
input causes an opening manoeuvre. A command impulse to the
“STEP BY STEP” input begins an alternating closing and opening
manoeuvre. A second impulse to the STEP-BY-STEP input or to the
same input the started the movement will cause it to stop.
Both in the opening and closing phases, the activation of the STOP
command or the sensitive edge will cause an immediate stopping of
movement and a short reverse run.
If a continuous signal rather than an impulse is maintained in a com-
mand input, a “prevalence” condition will be generated causing the
other command inputs to be disabled
(this is useful if you need
to connect a clock or a Night/Day selector switch).
If an automatic operating mode has been chosen, the opening
manoeuvre will be followed by a pause and then a closing manoeu-
vre. If PHOTO triggers during the pause, the timer will be reset with
a new pause time; if, on the other hand, STOP or sensitive edge is
activated during the pause, the closing function will be cancelled and
the system will switch to the STOP mode.
Nothing will happen if PHOTO is triggered during an opening
manoeuvre; if the related function has not been enabled through the
dip switch (switch 6), the triggering of PHOTO during a closing
manoeuvre causes a reverse run with a possible pause followed by
a new closing run.
4) Testing
5) Operating modes
After the above checks and adjustments have been made, the sys-
tem can be tested.
The automation system must be tested by qualified and
experienced personnel who must establish what tests
should be conducted according to current regulations
based on the risks involved.
Testing is the most important part of the whole automation process.
Each single component, e.g. motor, emergency stop, photocells,
etc., may require a specific test phase; please follow the procedures
described in the operating instructions for each component.
