1. Description
The control is a processor-controlled 24 VDC reversing contactor with soft-start and soft-
stop function for drives of the Aqua-I G series. The detection of the travel way is done by
sensors. The end positions are programmed, the system does not require mechanical limit
switches. The programming of the end positions is carried out by the buttons on the board
or optionally by means of a remote programming unit, which can be connected on the
board. Further function settings can be made in a user-friendly way by means of a rotary
button (S4).
The programming is protected against power failure. Additionally, the sensors are constantly
monitored and the drive is protected against overload. For extra position report, potential-
free contacts are provided .

3. nstallation information
oWhen connecting, the relevant standards and regulations must be observed, in particular
the VDE regulations, the local EVU regulations and the accident prevention regulations.
oBefore starting the installation work and with regard to subsequent work, switch the
control to zero potential.
oSeparate cable routing is a general principle. The sensor cable in particular must be
routed separately and in a shielded cable. (Exception "Blue cable" - Integrated motor and
sensor cable with shielding)
oOnly one drive must be connected to the control. Voltage pick-off for on-site periphery
such as light is not permitted.
NOTE
Ensure correct direction of rotation!
The rotation direction must correspond to the buttons O EN and CLOSE. If not:
-Interchange drive phases
-Interchange sensor channel A and B
WARN NG!
Danger from electric current!
When connecting the control, there is the danger of an electric shock.
-Before connecting the control, it must be switched to zero
potential.
-Before accessing the connecting terminals, all poles of the control
must be disconnected from the supply circuit.
WARN NG!
Danger due to improper use!
Unauthorized opening and improper intervention may lead to bodily
injuries or damage to property.
Allow only trained or qualified personnel (e.g. electrically skilled person)
to work on the system.
NOTE
In order to avoid severe bodily injuries or substantial damage to property, only
qualified persons, who are familiar with the electrical drive equipment, are
allowed to work on the control. Qualified persons are persons, who are familiar
with set-up, installation, commissioning and operation of electrical systems and
have the necessary qualifications according to their activities. They must be able
to evaluate the work assigned to them, recognize potential sources of danger and
take suitable safety precautions.

4. Functionality
Rotary button and display – functionality
System states and inputs are displayed on to the LEDs H1 to H10. On the two-digit segment
display H20 in the right part of the board, the parameters and error messages are displayed.
Numerical values with more than two digits are displayed by alternating flashing of the
hundreds digit and the tens digit or the ones digit. For example, if H20 alternates between
1 and 00, this corresponds to the display of the value 100.
The rotary button S4 has two functions. By vertically pressing on the tip of the rotary button,
inputs can be confirmed and the programming mode can be called up (see below).
By turning the rotary button clockwise or counter-clockwise, menu items and options (e.g.
drive type, operating mode, etc.) can be "browsed" in the programming mode and numeric
parameters (e.g. drive speed, acceleration duration, etc.) can be increased or reduced.
Programming and parameterisation
1. Switch on the programming mode: Keep the rotary button S4 pressed for three seconds.
2. Select the main menu: By rotating the rotary button S4, set the respective numerical
code of the desired menu and confirm the selection by pressing the button.
(For this, see 10. List of the menu functions!)
3. Setting of functions: By rotating the rotary button S4, set the numerical code of the
desired option or set the desired numerical value and confirm by pressing the button.
The display returns to the main menu.
4. Exit programming mode: By rotating the rotary button S4, set the numerical code 00 and
confirm by pressing the button. The display returns to the visualization of the current
operating status. If the numerical code 00 is selected in programming mode, the
programming mode exits itself automatically after 15 seconds without further input.
All main menus and submenus and their associated numerical codes are listed in chapter
10"List of the menu functions". Setting the numerical code and subsequently pressing the
button will take you to the submenus and back.
5. Drive selection
Before use, the control must be configured with regard to the connected drive type using
the menu function 01.

6. Setting of the end positions
Setting and programming of the end positions is done via the installed buttons or the
optionally available remote programming unit.
1. Delete all storages and initiate programming mode:
ress the button ROG and keep it pressed. In addition, press then the O EN and
CLOSE button simultaneously. Keep the 3 buttons pressed for approx. 3 seconds, until
all the LEDs positioned above the buttons are illuminated (H1–H3).
2. LED display in the programming mode: (no position is programmed)
H1 is illuminated = O EN position is not yet programmed
H2 is illuminated = rogramming is initiated
H3 is illuminated = CLOSE position is not yet programmed
3. Storage of positions:
The travel button operated first after activating the programming mode determines
the order of the end position programming. If it is travelled in O EN direction first, the
O EN end position must be programmed first, and afterwards the CLOSE position. If it
is travelled in CLOSE direction first, the CLOSE end position must be stored first, and
afterwards the O EN end position. If a travel button has already been operated after
activating the programming mode, but the other end position shall be stored first, the
programming mode can be reset by pressing again all three buttons for 3 seconds. The
order of storage is now selected again by travelling towards the desired first end
position.
When programming the first position, the associated LED goes out for confirmation.
After having programmed the second and last position, the control switches
automatically to normal mode (H2 off). The associated LED H1 or H3 is illuminated as
position report (see Normal mode / LED displays).
“O EN” osition:
a) Using the O EN button, travel to the desired O EN position.
b) Subsequently, press the ROG button and keep it pressed.
c) ress the O EN button to store the position O EN. Release both buttons.
“CLOSE” osition:
a) Using the CLOSE button, travel to the desired CLOSE position.
b) Subsequently, press the ROG button and keep it pressed.
c) ress the CLOSE button to store the position CLOSE. Release both buttons.

Fine-tuning of the positions
A position already programmed can be corrected. (Examp e: OPEN position)
a) Travel the system to O EN position.
b) ress the ROG button and keep it pressed.
c) Additionally, press the O EN button briefly (approx. 1 sec.). H2 is illuminated,
programming mode is initiated. Release all buttons.
d) Travel to the new O EN position.
e) Subsequently, press the ROG button and keep it pressed.
f) ress the O EN button in order to store the position O EN. H1 is switched on and the
O EN position is changed. Release both buttons.
g) After approx. 3 seconds, H2 goes out and the programming change is complete.
7. Operating mode
By Menu 04, the control must be set to the desired travel mode ‚ 'Dead man' or automatic.
In dead man`s mode, the system operates only as long as the command device is operated.
In automatic mode, the system operates, after command initiation, automatically until the
end positions are reached and can only be stopped by a stop command.
For each travel direction, the selection dead man/ automatic can be set separately. The
setting is also transferred to the TI function for radio operation on the terminals X3-4 and
X3-2.
8. Speed setting
The control is equipped with soft-start and soft-stop function. Thereby, the system reduces
the operating speed via a settable time (ramp), shortly before reaching the end position.
Analogously, acceleration takes places after command initiation. The respective parameters
can be set via menu 11 to 23.
9. Normal mode
After programming has been completed, the drive travels in the desired direction by tapping
the O EN and CLOSE button. The drive can be stopped by tapping one of the buttons one of
the two buttons again.
By operation of a command device at the input terminals X3-4 and X3-2, a sequential circuit
O EN-STO -CLOSE-STO -O EN-… is performed.

The LEDs H1 and H3 show the status of the cover.
When operating the cover, the control executes the following operation sequences:
OPEN-travel from CLOSE position:
- CLOSE position: H3 on (Cover in CLOSE position)
- Command initiation O EN command
- Cover moves in O EN
- After the end of the travel in O EN position, H1 is on (Cover in O EN position)
CLOSE travel from OPEN position
- O EN position: H1 on (Cover in O EN position)
- Command initiation CLOSE command
- Cover moves in CLOSE
- After the end of the travel in CLOSE position, H3 is on (Cover in CLOSE position)
