• Available only in door closer mode (hd=), manual
opening drive support is automatically adjusted to
operator size.
• Parameter hA sets door activation angle for power
assist function. Once angle reached, drive support
provides easier manual opening of the door.
• Parameter hF, power assist function. Parameter
values greater than  provides additional opening
force.
• Parameter hS, power assist function support for
door in closed position.
Required system safety, as a low energy application, is
achieved utilizing the following design factors:
• Reduced dynamic door panel contact forces
• Reduced static door panel contact forces
• Low driving speeds
• Force limitation
