5. Introduction
6. Characteristics and operation
NOTE-dFlow is a configurable equipment and can be provided with the option
of closed doors.
When we combine innovation and robustness, design and reliability, we find the best
access control solution. Digicon presents a solution developed to the last detail in order
to offer a new concept to the market. From an intense research process on world
tendencies and a comprehensive engineering work, dFlow is born.
dFlow is the first access controller that perfectly fits into the Free Flow concept. This is a
new way of conceiving access control because its doors remain normally open, while
traditional equipment have barriers in the normally closed position. This paradigm shift
is what differentiates it from a Free Flow currently available.
Even though it seems that equipment is always open, it has doors. They are activated
only when one or more unauthorized people, including tailgating users, try to go through
the equipment. The closing system is fast and progressive, performed by a set of the
exclusive motor control, innovative sensing, and sophisticated algorithm. This results in
a very pleasant and fast experience for authorized users and offers unprecedented
levels of security for the establishment.

10
The technology developed in Brazil by Digicon detects, with high precision, users
moving in any direction inside the equipment. Such precision originates in the
innovative sensing system, which can be compared to an almost limitless amount of
traditional infrared sensors, thus allowing the doors to remain open for authorized
users and closed to non-authorized people.
Luminous windows made of LED lights follow users during their path inside the equipment.
They can have different colors for each user group. In a school, for example, students can
belong to the green-colored group, educators to the yellow-colored group, and parents to the
blue-colored group. Users without validation will be displayed in red. dFlow's flexibility allows
other user groups to be identified by an extensive range of colors, thus providing more
information to the access system.

11
dFlow accepts the main traditional identification technologies, including bar code, QR
code, RFID, MIFARE, and biometrics via fingerprint. Integration into such technologies
follow the standards used in the traditional access control equipment.
New biometric technologies now emerging, as facial identification, iris pattern
identification, and finger on the fly are also supported by dFlow. These concepts offer a
faster and contactless experience with the equipment, making the Free Flow concept
even more pronounced.
7. Models
There are three types of models for dFlow. All of them use the same sensing system;
however, each model has a different passage width.
I. Model 500
In this model 500, the passage width measures 520 millimeters. With such measure,
we are able to have a bidirectional, non-simultaneous flow.

12
II. Model 900
NOTE-The model 900 can be configured with centralized doors.
NOTE-Digicon meets the standard ABNT NBR 9050, Accessibility to buildings,
furniture, and urban equipment.
In this model, the passage width measures 920 millimeters. With such measure, we
are able to have a bidirectional, simultaneous flow as well as providing access to
Special Needs Users.

13
III. Model 1100
NOTE – Each dFlow passage has 2 bumpers (left and right) whose function is to
protect the equipment against mechanical shocks. The bumpers, with 10 mm each,
reduce the useful passage width from 1140/940/540 mm to 1120/920/520 mm in the
active area.

In this model, the passage width measures 1120 millimeters. Exclusively in this model
the doors are centralized, which does affect the bidirectional, simultaneous flow and
allows access to Special Needs Users.

8. Installation
8.1 Installation site
The installation site must follow the requirements listed in the document titled Work
Plan in order to receive the equipment installation. In that document there are all the
information needed to install the product correctly, so that it can meet the customer's
expectations.
Alongside the document, there is a checklist of the installation requirements, which
must be filled in, signed by the customers, and documented by the company
responsible for installation.
NOTE –Evidences of the fulfillment of the installation requirements must be sent to
the technician's analysis. That can be done via photos or videos, as long as they have
clear information.
8.2 Package content
Before beginning installation, it is very important to perform a checklist of the
received items. This helps prevent future stops during installation due to lack of
materials. If you perceive any item missing, contact the company responsible for the
sale.
WARNING
Use two or more people to move/install the equipment. Excess can damage
or hurt someone who tries to perform this task alone.
WARNING
Allow only qualified personnel to install this equipment. The
installation must comply with all local rules and regulations.

8.3 Accessing dFlow
Each equipment module has four covers accessible via keys:
ŸSide covers: offer access to the breaker, collecting box, motor boardcircuit
supplies, and selector switch.
ŸLower covers: offer access to motors, control board, CPU, terminals, and
integrator area.
Opening doors: Closing doors:
WARNING
Make sure the circuit breaker is in the OFF position. This prevents the
accidental equipment energization during installation.

8.4 Drilling and anchorage
NOTE -Make sure the installation surface is steady and leveled to ensure door
alignment and a better sensor performance.
Place the equipment or templates in the correct installation place and check ifi t corresponds
to the model purchased by the customer. Below you can see the measurements according to
the models:

Once the layout is placed and the measurements are checked, mark the floor drilling
points, remove the template and drill according to the chosen type of anchor
(mechanical or chemical).
NOTE: Digicon recommends the chemical anchorage with ampoules. Check the
manufacturer's information before perfoming the chose anchorage.

Make sure the modules follow the positions shown below:
NOTE – In order to differentiate the modules, we point out that the
receiver has the CPU and the control board while the transmitter only has the terminal
block B2 in the lower half of the product.

8.5 Fixating and powering the sensor
Tofixate the sensor correctly, check if the installation references are according to the
ones specified below:
Inside the set, there is a kit containing screws and the connector used to power the
sensor. Use these items to fixate the sensor to the structure organized by the
customer.
NOTE – If the anchor system provided does not fit the local requirements, it is
possible to replace it as long as the new system does not mechanically interfere with
the sensor.
