Photocell 2 input
This menu allows enabling the input for type 2 photocells, that is to say,
photocells non active during the opening phase (see paragraph
“Installation”).
no
Input disabled (ignored by the control unit).
No jumper with the common is required.
CF.CH
Input enabled even at standstill gate too: the opening
movement does not start if photocell is interrupted.
CH
Input enabled for the closing phase only.
Warning:
if you select this option, you must disable photocell
test.
Test of safety devices
In order to achieve a safer operation for the user, the unit performs a
safety devices operational test, before a normal working cycle.
If no operational faults are found, the gate starts moving. Otherwise, it
will stand still and the flashing light will stay onfor 5 sec. The whole test
cycle lasts less than one second.
no
function not active
Foto
test enabled only for photocells
CoSt
test enabled only for safety edges
Ft.Co
test enabled either for photocells or for safety edges
WARNING:
The Test of safety devices should be working in order
to grant more safety during installation and programming.
WARNING:
it is possible to test safety edges only if a control unit
specially provided for this function has been installed.
Photocell 2 Shadow Zone
In some installations it may occur that the gate door
passes before the photocells, so breaking their beam. In
this case, the gate cannot complete its closing cycle.
Through this function, photocells can be temporarily
disabled, so allowing the door passage. Only those
photocells which are connected to the Photocell type 2
input can be disabled, this function being therefore
activated in the closing phase only.
The door travel, during which photocells are not active, is
measured in seconds from the beginning of the door 1
closing and starting from the max. opening position.
Please comply with the following procedure to setup the
shadow zone limits:
• Completely open the gate with the disabled function,
then activate its closing and see after how many
seconds the photocell operates.
• Set up a slightly lower time into i.ShA menu and a
slightly higher time into F.ShA menu.
• During the time between i.ShA and F.ShA, photocells(FOTO2) will not be active during the closing phase.
WARNING:
This function is active in case the ends of stroke have been fitted and enabled and if the START IN OPENING has been
disabled.
WARNING:
any improper use of this function may jeopardize the gate safe use. V2 recommends what follows:
• Make use of this function only in case the door passage before the photocells is actually unavoidable.
• Set up the shadow zone limits as tight as possible, complying with the necessary margins to compensate any possible door speed
difference.
