!IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION
WARNING – INCORRECT INSTALLATION CAN LEAD TO SEVERE INJURY
FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
Before installing the operator check that the door is in good mechanical condition,
and correctly balanced, and that it opens and closes properly.
•Do not use the force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking garage door.
Excessive force will interfere with the proper operation of the Safety Reverse System
or damage the garage door.
•
Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while installing or servicing a garage
door operator.
•To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove any ropes connected to
the garage door before installing the door operator.
•Install the remote mounted bell push button within sight of the door but away from
any moving parts and at a height of at least 1.5 metres.
•The safety reverse system test is very important. The garage door must reverse when
obstructed on closing. Failure to properly adjust the operator may result in serious
personal injury from a closing garage door. Repeat the test once a month and make
any needed adjustments (see Advanced Settings <, Menu band Menu con page
20 of this manual).
Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local building
and electrical codes.
•If the garage has no service entrance door then an exterior release kit MUST be fitted.
This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of
power failure.
•Disconnect electric power to the garage door operator before making repairs or
removing covers.
•Use the manual release lever to disengage the motor drive ONLY when the drive is
switched OFF and, if possible, when the door is fully closed.
•Examine the installation, in particular the cables, spring and mountings, for signs of
wear, damage or imbalance. Do not use if repair or adjustment is needed since a fault
in the installation or an incorrectly balanced door may cause injury.
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE
Only operate the door when the door is in full view, free of obstacles with no persons
(particularly children) near the door. Nobody should be allowed to enter or leave the
garage whilst the door is in motion.

SAFETY FEATURES
• Automatic Door Reverse
An unmodified closing door will automatically reverse within 2 seconds if door is obstructed
by person or object.
• Automatic Time Reverse
Closing door will automatically reverse if the door is not fully closed within 88 seconds.
• Safety Stop
Opening door will immediately stop when obstructed by person or object.
• Beam Break
For additional safety we recommend a Beam Break is installed. If the INFRA-RED BEAM
is broken by a person or object whilst the door is closing, it will automatically reverse to the
fully open postion without actually having touched the closing door itself.

PREPARATION FOR PROGRAMMING
• The operator has to be mounted ready for operation
• The door is not yet closed completely
• If there is a beam break (photocell), it should be connected!
☞Advice:
If the photocell is correctly mounted and aligned, the function 'photocell' is recognized
automatically during programming!
☞Advice:
The programming is cancelled if none of the three buttons (%, &, $) is actuated during
a time period of more than 120 sec.
All functions saved before with button %remain unchanged.
When programming is cancelled, LED His flashing.
After shortly pressing button %the error message 1 is displayed.
!Attention:
The operator has two programming levels.
For normal operation of the operator you only program the end positions and
the remote control in the Basic settings.
Changes in the extended programming level may only be carried out
by specialists.
☞Advice:
To determine the error number add the figures of the irregularly flashing LED’s.
See as well 'error messages'.
In case of a malfunction the control light MALFUNCTION His flashing.
• If applicable, before programming the operator, stick battery into your hand transmitter(s).
• When the door operator is turned on (plug in power cord) it runs a self-test;
all 4 LEDs will glow and operator 230V light will illuminate for approximately 2 seconds.
When the light is off and LED Iis illuminated the operator is in normal operating mode.
ADJUSTMENT BUTTONS:
All settings and adjustments can be made with the three adjustment buttons.
Use &and /to change settings of chosen program menu
%to store menu setting and go to next menu.
• Shortly press button %.
-> The current error number is displayed by irregularly flashing LED's
(e.g. error Nand X).

Page 11
☞Advice:
The end positions can only be programmed if there is a valid reference point.
For this travel the door electrically once to open or close position.
☞Advice:
All menus can be reset by a RESET function to the original values set by factory.
Reset is activated by pressing %, &and $together for more than 30 seconds.
Display of the reference point
The operator passes the reference point sensor:
• LED Zshortly glows up.

HOW TO PROGRAM AN ADDITIONAL TRANSMITTER
☞Advice:
- Both sides of the plug connections can be used identically.
- For multi-channel hand transmitters this step has to be carried out separately for each
button.
!Attention:
- An actuation of the hand transmitter may start the door movement!
- After the hand transmitter has been recoded, the garage door system to be actuated
must also be reprogrammed to adopt the new coding, since the old coding has been
irretrievably lost!
Learning the coding
This function is meant to transmit the coding of an existing hand transmitter to an additional hand transmitter.
Step 1
• Connect both hand transmitters by means of the enclosed coding plug 1.
Step 2
• Actuate the existing hand transmitter and hold the button.
The LED on the transmitter is on.
Step 3
• Actuate the desired button of the new hand transmitter and hold the button
of the existing hand transmitter.
After 1 - 2 sec. the LED on the new transmitter is glowing permanently.
Programming is terminated.
The new hand transmitter has now taken over the coding of the existing hand
transmitter.
• Remove the coding plug 1.
Altering the coding
It is possible to change the coding of the hand transmitter in case that a hand transmitter has gone lost.
For this insert the coding plug 1into the hand transmitter that has to be reprogrammed.
Step 1
• Insert the coding plug 1into the hand transmitter.
• Short-circuit one of the outer pins of the coding plug with the centre lead
(e.g. by means of a screwdriver).
• Actuate the desired button on the hand transmitter. The integrated random
program generates a new code. The LED is flashing quickly.
As soon as the LED on the hand transmitter is on permanently, release the
button of the hand transmitter and remove the coding plug.

OPERATOR PROGRAMMING - ADVANCED SETTINGS
!Attention:
Programming the advanced features of this operator must only be undertaken by fully
trained and qualified personnel. Please contact your dealer for details.
MENU OVERVIEW <:
aAdd beam break (photocell)
bSet maximum OPENING force
cSet maximum CLOSING force
dSet offset learned power limit (sensitivity)
eSet start-up phase
fSet "operator speed"
<ADVANCED SETTINGS
☞Advice:
The values for the automatic cut-out (= max. force) and learning power limit (= power
curve) can be set manually in the 2nd programming level.
A setting should always be carried out as soon as a less sensitive setting has to be chosen
due to door travel properties caused by site conditions, as otherwise the automatic cut-out
or power limit would react and cause malfunctions.
In general you have to take care that the allowed operating forces according to EN 12445
and EN 12453 are not exceeded.
☞Advice:
The setting of the automatic cut-out corresponds to the maximum power of the operator.
At the first travel to OPEN or CLOSE direction after 'POWER ON' the automatic cut-out
is effective according to the adjustment. For further travels the self-learned power, that is
more sensitive, is effective. The automatic cut-out is still the upper limit of power.

!Attention:
When re-programming the end positions (1st programming level) the opening force is

Depending on the door travel properties increasing of the force values may be necessary.
!Attention:
The automatic cut-out is set automatically.
Only change it if necessary (error No. 5).
When increasing the set value the max. force in OPEN direction is increased and thus the
sensitivity of the automatic cut-out is reduced.
!Attention:
Always test the max. allowed operating forces according to EN 12445 and EN 12453!
