1E - PRESETS
If you perform the standard programming procedure (see paragraph 6B), and there are no modifications on the trimmer regula-
tion (see paragraph 4B) and on dip switches (see paragraph 4A), the control unit will act as follows:
- The safety devices in closing, connected to PHO1 contact (terminal 13), will intervene only in closing, inverting the motion.
- The safety devices in opening, connected to PHO2 contact (terminal 14), will intervene both in closing and in opening,
keeping on the motion when the device has been cleared (setting by the dip 5 PHO2).
- Activation of electric limit switches management (terminals 4,5,6,7,8) only if they are connected. If there are no electric limit
switches, the terminals must be free.
- Pause time before automatic reclosing equal to 45 seconds.
- Pedestrian opening procedure controlled by cable and by transmittter (if the transmitter has been programmed by the
procedure as per paragraph 3b) and with total wing opening operated by MOT1 (terminals 30,31,32).
- The slowdowns are set to the final 15% of the travel.
 2 - ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
2A - CABLES SECTION
- The control unit must be powered (by its external fuse box terminal), through a cable which must be at least 3x1.5 mm wide. If
the distance between the control unit and the grounding system is more than 30m it is necessary to install an electric discharger
near to the control unit.
- The cables which will be used for the low-tension must be at least 0.25 mm wide.
- If the length between the control unit and the grounding system is more than 30 m, it is necessary to use screen cables. If the
distance increases, it is necessary to increase also the section of the wires, to avoid current loss.
- Do not link the cables in underground box, or in inside the pipes.
- Use only RG58 wires to connect external antennas (it can be provided as accessory with included power cables).

 5 - DIP-SWITCHES DESCRIPTION

5A - DIP-SWITCH 1 - RADIO
If the RADIO dip-switch is set to ON, the START channel is memorized during the programming of the radio transmitter (see
paragraph 3).

If the RADIO dip-switch is set to OFF, the pedestrian opening channel is memorized during the programming of the radio
transmitter (see paragraph 3).

5B - DIP-SWITCH 2 - FAST
If the FAST dip-switch is set to ON, the rapid reclosing is enabled. This modality enables to reclose the gate as soon as the
control unit notices that the photocell range have been occupied and cleared. So, going through the passage, the automatic
reclosing of the automation will be enabled, without waiting the pause time.

If the FAST dip-switch is set to OFF, the automatic reclosing is disabled

5C - DIP-SWITCH 3 - STRIKE (see also paragraph 12D)

If the STRIKE dip-switch is set to ON, the kick-back is enabled (see paragraph 12D). In this way, the control unit will supply a
voltage swing at the beginning of the opening cycle, and at the end of the closing cycle.

If the STRIKE dip-switch is set to OFF, the kick-back is disabled.

5D - DIP-SWITCH 4 - LAMP (see also paragraph 12A)

If the LAMP dip-switch is set to ON, the power supply given to the lamp (terminals 28,29) is intermittent (see paragraph 12A).

If the LAMP dip-switch is set to OFF, the power supply given to the lamp (terminals 28,29) is direct (see paragraph 12A).

5E - DIP-SWITCH 5 - PHO2 (see also paragraph 11B)

If the PHO2 dip-switch is set to ON, the safety devices in opening and closing, when they intervene, stop the motion of the wings,
which will open again as soon as cleared (typical functioning of the photocell).

If the PHO2 dip-switch is set to OFF, the safety devices in opening, when they intervene, invert the motion for 2 seconds, and
then they stop the automation. So, it is necessary to supply a command (by wire or by transmitter) to finish the travel, and close the
wings (typical functioning of the safety edge). With this setting these safety devices in closing do not intervene.

5F - DIP-SWITCH 6 - AUTO
If the AUTO dip-switch is set to ON, the automatic reclosing function is enabled. The control unit automatically closes the wings
after the time set by the PAU trimmer (see paragraph 4B).

If the AUTO dip-switch is set to OFF, the automatic reclosing function is disabled. It is necessary to supply a command (by wire
or by transmitter) to close the wings.

5G - DIP-SWITCH 7 - STEP
If the STEP dip-switch is set to ON, the step-by-step function is enabled. Every time the control unit receives an input signal, it
perform an action. When the automation is stationary, it starts the motor, and when the automation is moving, it stops the motor.

If the STEP dip-switch is set to OFF, the modality OPEN/STOP/CLOSING is enabled. The control unit accepts only commands
(by wire or by transmitter) in opening. So, when the gate is closed, it opens. When the gate is opening, it keeps opening, and when
the gate is closing, it opens completely.
The reclosing takes place with the time set by the PAU trimmer, if the AUTO dip is set to ON.
Otherwise, it is necessary to give a START command (by wire or by transmitter).

5H - DIP-SWITCH 8 - SLOW
If the SLOW dip-switch is set to ON, the control unit is will perform a slowing-down at the end off the opening and closing phase.

If the SLOW dip-switch is set to OFF, the control unit will not perform the slowing-down.
 6 - TRAVEL PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE
It is necessary to perform the learning procedure to program the travel (see paragraph 6B for the standard proce-
dure, or paragraph 6D for the professional procedure). There is also a learning procedure for the pedestrian
opening (see paragraph 6E; it is not indispensable).
The control unit is programmed by the buttons, and the control unit status is shown during the programming
procedure by the yellow led SET. When the control unit begins the programming procedure, the yellow led SET
switches on. It stays on until the end of the programming procedure, or until an anticipated quit (by pushing SET
and RADIO simultaneously), which stops the programming procedure and the motors.

6A - PROGRAMMING WARNINGS
- In the absence of electric limit switches, or to having a better travel regulation, it could be necessary to intervene
during the programming procedure, at the end of opening and closing cycles (points 6, 7, 8 for the standard
programming procedure, and points 6, 9B, 12B for the professional programming procedure), by pushing the SET
button for the wing 1, and RADIO for the wing 2, to stop them at the end of the opening/closing.
- In case of 1 motor only, it must be connected to MOT1 (terminals 30,31,32), and the delay between the wings
(trimmer DEL) must be set to 0.
! During the programming procedure, every safety device is disabled, to let the installer moving through
their range.

6C - WARNINGS BEFORE STARTING

After the programming procedure verify that:
- The motors shut down a few seconds after the end of the programming procedure.
- The control unit respond to the inputs received by wire: START (terminal 9), pedestrian opening (terminal 12),
and STOP (terminal 11).
- The control unit respond to the inputs received by transmitter.
- The safety devices connected to PHO1 (terminal 13) intervene while the gate is closing and prevent the closing
when the gate is opened.
- The safety devices connected to PHO2 (terminal 14) intervene while the gate is open and that they prevent the
opening when the gate is closed. If the DIP PHO2 is set to ON, to intervene while the gate is closing and prevent
the closing when the gate is opened.
 6D - PROFESSIONAL LEARNING PROCEDURE
The installer can set the beginning point of the slowdown through this procedure. The beginning point is
customizable in opening and closing.
! On steps 9a and 12a of the programming procedure, the first wing is the one which opens as first and
closes as second (connected to terminals 30,31,32 MOT1).
The second wing, instead, is the one which opens as second and closes as first (connected to terminals

 7 - PARTIAL OPENING LEARNING PROCEDURE
The pedestrian opening is a partial opening (or total opening, if the installer wants it) of the wing opened by MOT1 (terminals
30,31,32). To manage the pedestrian opening, it is necessary to program a button of the radio transmitter (see paragraph 3B),
or connect a command by wire on the terminals 10,12(see paragraph 10B).

 8 - TRIMMER
8A - Trimmer FOR Power / speed of the motor
Use the FOR trimmer to adjust the voltage with which the motor is powered during operation, thus adjusting its speed. This is
settable between 50% and 100% of the maximum force and can be increased by turning the trimmer clockwise. Thus if the
trimmer is set on the minimum then the speed is equal to about 50%, if adjusted in an intermediate position it is equal to 75%,
while at the maximum the speed will be the largest obtainable.
! A variation of the FOR trimmer requires the repetition of the learning procedure since the operation times, and
thus the moments in which to start the slow-down, vary.

8B - Trimmer PAU - Pause time

The PAU trimmer is used to set the pause time of the control unit if the automatic closing is enabled by means of DIP 6
AUTO. The pause time is settable between 3 and 90 seconds and can be increased by turning the trimmer clockwise. Thus if
the trimmer is set at the minimum then the pause time is equal to about 3 seconds, if adjusted to an intermediate position it is
equal to about 28 seconds, while at the maximum the pause time will be about 90 seconds.

8C - Trimmer OBS - Obstacle sensitivity

The OBS trimmer is used to adjust both the intervention delay after detection of an obstruction and the opposing force to be
used by the automation. This function is useful to overcome any critical points of the automation where, for a brief time interval,
there is greater power absorption by the motor. Both the intervention delay and the opposing force can be increased by turning
the trimmer clockwise. The intervention delay can be set between 0.1 and 3 seconds. Thus if the trimmer is set at the minimum
then the intervention time is equal to about 0.1 seconds, if adjusted to an intermediate position it is equal to about 1.5 seconds,
while at the maximum the intervention time will be about 3 seconds. See also paragraph 11D.

8B - Trimmer DEL Delay between the wings

The DEL trimmer is used to adjust the delay between the start of the motors both in opening and in closing. If the trimmer is set
at the minimum, there is no delay, and the wings will open and close simultaneously. In the other positions, the delay in opening
is set to 3 seconds, and the delay in closing can be set between 0 and 15 seconds, depending on the trimmer position.

9 - LED
The leds show the state of the control unit and of some of the connected accessories. Normally, when the control unit is
powered and working, the red PH led and the red ST led should be on. Otherwise, verify the connected accessories, or the
bridges which substitute them.

9A - WARNING LED
YELLOW LED SET:
- flashes for 5 seconds when turned on to indicate that it is possible to enter the professional, simplified, or pedestrian learning modes
- lights up with a fixed light while professional or simplified learning are carried out.
- is switched off when the control unit functions normally
RED LED RAD:
- flashes briefly when a 433 MHz Multipass radio code is received
- is fixed on when radio codes are being memorized
- flashes rapidly when the control unit is switched on and the radio code memory is defective
- flashes rapidly during the cancellation of radio codes
- flashes slowly in case of attempt to insert codes with the memory full
- is switched off when the control unit is functioning normally and waiting to receive a command via radio.
RED LED PH:
-is switched on when the photocell is properly installed
-is switched off when the photocell does not work (interrupted or not aligned)
GREEN LED START

- is switched on in case of anomalies on the control unit (try to program the control unit again)
 10 - CABLE COMMANDS CONNECTABLE

10A - STARTING COMMAND CONNECTION

In the START input (terminals 9,10) it is possible to connect a normally open contact (for example, key selectors, or switches)
to manage the automation. The commands can be set by dip switches 6 and 7 (see paragraph 4A, 5). There are 2 micro
switches in the selectors; each one has its own function.
Picture 1 shows the terminals in which is possible to connect a micro switch for the starting command.
A selector can also issue a starting command with both the contacts connected in parallel (see picture 2).

contact will be opened again.

10B - PEDESTRIAN OPENING COMMAND CONNECTION

The pedestrian opening is a partial opening (or total opening, if the installer wants it) of the wing opened by MOT1 (terminals
30, 31, 32). To activate the pedestrian opening function, it is necessary to make the pedestrian opening programming procedure
(see paragraph 7). The pedestrian opening can be managed by a channel of the transmitter (see paragraph 3B) and/or by wire,
connecting a normally open contact to PED input (terminals 10, 12).
Picture 1 shows the terminals in which it is possible to connect a micro switch for the pedestrian opening command.

device has been cleared - if the access is closed they inhibit the opening commands.
- if the access is closed they inhibit the opening commands. - if the access is open they have no effect
- if the access is open hey inhibit the closing commands.
! If there is more than one device on this contact (PHO2), they must be connected in series.
! If there is more than one photocell, the receivers must be alternated (see picture 1)

11C - SAFETY AUTO TEST

The control unit has a self-test function of the safeties connected to the PHO1 and PHO2 input. It switches off the transmitter
to check the commutation of the corresponding receiver contact before the execution of each manoeuvre. To activate this
self-test function proceed as follows:
- connect the positive of the photocell transmitter power to the terminal +TX (terminal 17) instead of the terminal +VA
(terminal 16).
- make the programming procedure, as follows.

ACTIVATION

Press button RADIO Press SET Press button RADIO

for 2 seconds button (the yellow led and the red

steady on)

! The activation of the self-test, without having properly connected the photocells to the control unit, will cause a
malfunctioning of the system.
! Press button P2/RAD for 2 seconds to know the state of self-test (activated or deactivated): if the red led RAD turns on, it
means that the self-test is disabled; if the red led RAD and the yellow led SET turn on, it means that the self-test is active.

11D - OBSTACLE DETECTION BY POWER ABSORPTION

Depending on the regulation of trimmer OBS (see paragraphs 4B, 8), the control unit could be more sensitive (and invert the
motion more easily) in case of impact of a wing against an obstacle. However, a too sensitive regulation of the trimmer, together
with a worsening of the condition of the system caused by the passage of time, could cause unexpected interventions in the
points where the motors absorb more current.
 12 - OTHER CONNECTABLE ACCESSORIES

12A - FLASHING LAMP

It is possible to connect flashing light devices to the LAMP input (terminals 28,29). These devices turn on a second before the
manoeuvre. If the dip 4 LAMP is ON position, the power supplied is intermittent. Therefore, a normal lamp can be connected. If
the dip 4 LAMP is OFF position, the power supplied is direct. Therefore the terminals must be connected to a flashing light with
a built-in oscillating circuit.
! The lamp must be 230 V, and power rating must not be greater than 25W.

12B - ANTENNA
It is possible to connect a radio frequency antenna to the ANT input (terminals 21,22). The control unit is provided with a
pre-connected cable. In particular environmental conditions, it can be useful to connect an external antenna, to increase the
transmitter range.
! In case of connection of external antennas, it is necessary to remove the pre-connected cable.

12C - OPENED GATE WARNING LIGHT

If the safety device self-test is not used (see paragraph 11C), the output +TX (terminal 17) acts as a gate open warning light.
The status of the lamp is as follows:
- If the access is closed the light is switched off
- If the access is open is alight with a fixed light
- If the access is opening the lamp flashes.
- If the access is closing the lamp flashes quickly.
! The warning light must be 24 Vdc and it cant be more than 3W.

12D - ELECTRO LOCK (OPTIONAL CARD)

It is possible to manage an electro lock (maximum power 15W) using an accessory card (code: Selc12).
! If the electro lock is connected, it could be necessary to set the dip 6 Strike to ON position, to have a stroke
reversing pulse at the beginning of the opening, and at the end of the closing.

12E - COURTESY LIGHT (OPTIONAL CARD)

Thanks to an optional card (Selc 12), it is possible to manage a courtesy light (230Vac, max 500W). The output contact is free,
and it is provided before every manoeuvre for a customizable time from 0 to 120 seconds.

13 - BUILT-IN MODULES

13A - MEMO MODULE

MEMO module is a memory card (see paragraph 1A) which stores the radio transmitters codes (see paragraph 3A and/or 3B).

13B - RX STAR MODULE

The RX STAR module is necessary to receive the radio transmitters frequencies (433.920 MHz).
It doesnt contain the radio codes.
 14 - INCONVENIENTS AND REMEDIES
14A - THE AUTOMATION DOESNT START

- Verify the presence of voltage in the terminals of the external fuse box.
- Verify the fuse (see paragraph 1A).
- STOP contact open (red led ST is off): check for possible STOP commands connected (terminal 14). If absent, jumper the
input with terminal 14.

14B - THE AUTOMATION PERFORMS ONLY THE OPENING CYCLE

-The photocell is obstructed (red led PHO is off): check the correct positioning of the photocells and their range.
-The photocell is absent (red led PHO is off): if there are no devices connected on terminal 16, jumper the input.
-A normally closed contact, or a defective contact, is connected on STAR input (terminal 12 the green led START is steady
on).

14C - THE AUTOMATION WORKS ONLY BY WIRE

- The radio transmitter hasnt been correctly programmed (see paragraph 3).
- The battery of the transmitter are exhaust. Change them.

14D - THE AUTOMATIONS CLOSES WITHOUT EXTERNAL COMMANDS

- The automatic reclosing dip AUTO is ON. Put the dip in OFF (see paragraph 4A).
- The rapid reclosing dip FAST is ON. Put the dip in OFF (see paragraph 4A)

14E - THE AUTOMATION STARTS BUT, AT A CERTAIN POINT, IT INVERT THE TRAVEL

- Too low obstacle sensitivity. Increase the OBS trimmer (see paragraph 4B).
- Check the motors: they should turn off some seconds after the beat. In case, lower the OBS trimmer (see paragraph 4B), and
perform the programming procedure again.
- Intervention of safety devices. If there are two pairs of photocells, they could see each other. Invert a receiver with its transmit-
ter (see paragraph 11A).

14F - THE AUTOMATION STARTS BUT, AT A CERTAIN POINT, IT STOPS

- Not enough power. Set FOR trimmer at maximum level, and program the automation again (see paragraph 4B). Perform a
professional programming procedure (paragraph 5D) and reduce at minimum (or remove) the slowdowns.

14G - LIMITED SEGNAL RECEPTION

- An external antenna has been connected, but the standard cable mounted in the control unit hasnt been removed. Remove
the cable.
- The battery of the transmitter are exhaust. Change them.
- There are external interferences. Install an external antenna.

14H - THE WINGS, IN CLOSING POSITION, ARE NOT ENOUGH BLOCKED

- Increase the OBS trimmer, in order to push more the wings against the mechanical stop and perform the programming
procedure again.

14I - THE MANUAL RELEASE IS TOO HARD

- The mechanism is too stressed in closing position. Decrease the OBS trimmer, and perform the programming procedure
again.

14L - THE RED LED ERR TURNS ON, AND THE CONTROL UNIT DOES NOT ACCEPT INPUT

- Perform a programming procedure (see paragraph 6B or 6D). Then try again.
