• Available only in manual 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
decreases the amount of force required to open the
door.
• Parameter hS, power assist function support for
door in closed position.

. Low energy product
.. ANSI/BHMA ..
ED operators are configured to meet requirements
of a low energy application per ANSI/BHMA A.,
Standard for Power Assist and Low Energy Power
Operated Swinging Doors.
.. Low energy power operated door.
A door with a power mechanism that opens the door
upon receipt of a knowing act activating signal, does
not generate more kinetic energy than specified in
ANSI 156.19, and is closed by a power mechanism or by
other means.
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
.. Knowing act definition.
Any conscious action with the expected result of
opening a door. This includes but is not limited to:
• Wall or jamb mounted contact or non contact
switches such as pushplates.
• The action of of manually opening (pushing or
pulling) a door.
• Controlled access devices such as keypads, card
readers, wireless transmitters and key switches.

SAFETY INFORMATION
Low Energy Swinging
Doors
1
. Activate the door. Door
should open at a slow
smooth pace (4 or more
seconds), and stop withou
t
impact.
2
. Door must remain fully open
for a minimum of 5 seconds
before beginning to close.
3
. Door should close at a slow,
smooth pace (4 or more
seconds), and stop without
impact.
4
. Inspect the floor area. It
should be clean with no
loose parts that might cause
user to trip or fall. Keep
traffic path clear.
5
. Inspect door‘s overall
condition. The appropriate
signage should be present
and the hardware should
be in good condition.
6
. Have door inspected by an
AAADM certified inspector
at least annually.

CAUTION
A minimum of ten spring tension revolutions

TIPS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
System checks spring tension during learning
