3. Installation
a) When you make the concrete foundation lay enough cable or a plastic duct for the cable you need.
The foundation must be at least 800 mm deep with a horizontal surface 500 x 550 mm.
b) Using the template you can, either incorporate bolts in the foundation, or drill holes in the hardened
concrete for heavy-duty plugs. The door side of the template must be toward the road which the barrier
will be closing.
c) As an alternative 2 "U"-profile clamping-irons are delivered with the barrier. This gives more flexibility in
positioning the fastening points and allows the barrier to be lined up exactly as required.
d) Secure the barrier on the foundation.
e) Connect the boom holder to the shaft.
Tighten all screws, the top ones first with 35 Nm.
The enclosed nuts and bolts are a predetermined breaking point
and should only be replaced with the same sorts.
(Bolt M 8 x 50 ISO 4762 12.9, Nut hexagonal M 8-8 ISO 4032)
f) Emergency release by current failure etc. Pull the lever with the
red end which is behind the access panel. The boom can then be
raised manually. To engage the boom again pull the lever and
pull the boom down, the release bolt will then lock at the
appropriate position.
The controller is switched off until the boom is locked at the
operating position.
g) Mount the boom before doing a test run. If necessary adjust the limit switches and the stoppers.
h) The logic board MO 62 is connected to the terminals (X1) in the barrier and to the microswitches in the head.
All electrical connections should be carried out at the front of the terminals (X1). The barrier is ready for use
when delivered. The running time and a ‘stay open’ time of 5 seconds are stored in an eeprom. You only
require the programming mode if the time to stay open (when automatic closure is being used) is to be
altered, or when a logic card is replaced.
Switch off the mains supply before altering the operating mode dip switches!
Pull out the fuse-holder where mains supply is connected to X1

4.1. Operating mode
Switch off the mains supply before
altering the dip switches for operating mode.
S1 (Stop)
S1 on: Logic is switched off.
S1 off: Logic is working.
S2 (Warning before opening)
S2 on: Four seconds warning before opening.
S2 off: No warning before opening.
S3 (Warning before closing)
S3 on: Four seconds warning before closing.
S3 off: No warning before closing.
S4 (Automatic closure when the stored time has elapsed)
S4 on: The barrier closes after the time which was learned (from 5 secs. up to 10 mins.).
S4 off: No automatic closure.
S5 (Reversal on hitting obstacles)
S5 on: The closing boom stops when it hits an obstacle and only moves when a new order is received.
S5 off: The closing boom stops when it hits an obstacle and re-opens immediately.
S6 (Counting)
S6 off: No counting. The barrier closes after one signal to close, even after two signals to open.
S6 on: Counting activated. The barrier closes after two signals to close if there were two consecutive
opening signals.
S7 (Reversal during opening)
S7 off: The barrier always opens completely before reacting to a signal to close.
S7 on: The opening barrier reverses immediately when it receives a signal to close.
4.2. Programming the controller

This is only necessary if saved times are to be changed, or on replacement of the logic board. On delivery
5 seconds open before automatic closure and the running time for the barrier are already saved.
a) Open and close the barrier with the push buttons. This is to ensure that both limit switches are working.
Programming can only be carried out when the controller recognises both limit switches.
b) A time to stay open for automatic closure must be learned, but only takes effect when automatic closure
is activated. (Operating mode switch 4 on)
c) Push the learn button approx. 3 seconds - the red diagnostic LED starts flashing.
d) Push the learn button - the barrier opens and the time required is saved.
e) The diagnostic LED flashes at 1 second intervals. Push the learn button when the required time to stay
open has elapsed. The barrier closes and the appropriate open time and running time are saved.
f) The diagnostic LED lights for a short time to confirm saving data and the controller then switches to
operating status.
g) All information is saved in an EEPROM and is available after current failure.

If a loop detector is used remove the red jumper between the terminals 6 and 10 of the appropriate socket. The
socket B3 is for the loop under the boom and is pre-wired for safety and to close the barrier when a vehicle
leaves the loop. The socket B2 is for a second loop which can be configured with the jumpers at the terminals
X1/25 to X1/27. The works configuration is sufficient for almost all cases.
When all connections are completed and the barrier is closed, only the following LEDs should be lit: LS, BTS2
and SEA, if this is not the case then see page 8.
WARNING: Please check the direction of the connecting rod from the gears. The reversal by obstruction can
only work when the rod always moves to the rear of the housing, never to the door.

9. Setting personal code in the K Type radio remote control
Example A) Receiver using the code switches on the logic board : MO 33, MO 43 or MO 542
or receiver with code switches in conjunction with the boards : MO 32, MO 42, MO 52Z2, MO 60 or MO 62
Follow the example in the diagram below.
Transmitter SK, SKX and SKI in conjunction with K Type receivers using code switches.
The switches 1 to 7 in transmitter and receiver must have the same settings. The switches 8 and 9 of the
receiver allocate a channel appropriate to the button of the transmitter. The switches 8 and 9 in
multi - channel transmitters and receivers must be set at 0.
The examples on the right in the diagram above show the allocation of a channel with a one - channel
transmitter using the switches 8 and 9 as in the receiver.
Example B) Receivers without code switches : Logic boards MO 34 or MO 55
These receivers learn the code from the transmitter as described in the paragraph ‘Learning personal code’ in
these installation instructions.
Example C) Combination of examples A and B
A garage door opener with MO 55 and a swing gate opener with either MO 32 or MO 33.
1.) Set the code of the transmitter and receiver for the swing gate opener as described above. Switches 1
to 7 have the same settings in both transmitter and receiver. The switches 8 and 9 set at 0.
The swing gate opener now receives signals from the first button of the transmitter.
2.) You can now allocate the second button to the garage door opener by going through the procedure
described in the installation instructions for the garage door opener in the paragraph ‘Learning
personal code’.
