DG-Mini Installation Manual Software Version 1.6.3 6
INTRODUCTION
D ESCRIPTION
The DG-Mini door controller has been specifically designed for industrial doors and gates. The controller provides
variable motor speed and control as well as monitoring and response to external inputs.
The DG-Mini door controller incorporates a comprehensive range of configurable parameters that allows the door/gate
manufacturer and installer to configure for optimal performance.
In addition, live fault diagnostics is provided for the installer and end user allowing for quick resolve
of any issues of the system so that the door or gate can continue operation with a minimum of delay.
W HO IS THIS MANUAL INTENDED FOR ?
This manual is intended for installers and door and gate manufacturers. It is not intended for the end user.
It is the responsibility of the door and gate manufacturer to supply the end user documentation.
S AFETY WARNINGS
This unit must only be installed by qualified personnel with experience in automatic doors/gates. Knowledge of the
relevant regulations is required.
Please read and understand before installation:
WARNING
Depending
on location, the installer may have the
responsibility for agency approval marking of the door/gate.
he installer must inform / advise the end user on how to
operate the door/gate.
WARNING

WARNING
Grounding of the mains supply is essential to safety of
personnel as well as the operation of the DG-Mini controller.
A floating or ungrounded mains supply can create a
hazardarous condition or permantely damage the controller.
If the service transformer cannot be grounded an isolation
transformer with a grounded secondary is required.

M OTOR BRAKE
Some door applications require that the motor is mounted with an
electromechanical brake that restrains the motor while not running.
The example shown uses the power relay to control an AC motor brake.

It is possible to connect either a digital absolute encoder or an incremental encoder to the DG-Mini controller, however
only one type may be used at a time.

encoders without pulse output do not react as
fast as incremental encoders.

WIRING
DG-Mini V7 Rev. C Standard HW manual V 1.0.2 14
R EFERENCE LIMIT
When using an incremental encoder, the controller
does not know the position of the door when
power is applied. Therefore a reference switch at a
known location is required. At start up a reference
run is necessary to properly determine the door’s
relative position.
The reference switch must change state only once
during the complete travel of the door. A reference
switch mounted at the open position must be a
normally open switch. A reference switch mounted
at the closed position must be a normally closed
switch. The controller uses the state of the switch
to determine the direction the door is to travel
during the reference run.
The illustration below shows the possible locations
and states for the reference switch.
NOTE
Remember to select the correct switch type based on
its mounting location using the menu:

S AFETY EDGES
The DG-Mini supports multiple types of Safety
Edges connections. Connection details and
programming details are illustrated below.
C ONDUCTIVE WITH RESISTOR
Connect the safety edge to terminals 1 and 2. The Safety Edge can be either a normally-open or normally-closed contact
with termination resistor. The value of the required termination resistor and contact type must match the setting in the
DG-Mini. If no safety edge is connected, the door will only operate in jog mode.

WARNING
It is essential that a UL 325 compliant
entrapment protection device be used in
conjunction with the DG-Mini.
If the entrapment proection is a safety
edge, only use the dedicated safety edge
inputs on terminals 1 and 27.

Installation
Switch off the supply to the control panel and connect
as shown above.
Always install the receiver (with white cable) closest
to the door controller:
This provides the best noise immunity. Mount the
transmitter at approximately the same height on the
opposite side of the door. The exact position can be
adjusted for the best alignment using the control
panel as described below.
Alignment
When the D.O.T system is the selected photoeye type,
an additional menu is available in the System Status
menu.
Test the photoeyes while the door is closing to ensure
correct operation of the system.
NOTE
To aid in alignment use the menu:
