1 INSTALLATION OF CONTROL UNIT
Procedure for securing components in the water-tight enclosure:
1- Secure the transformer to the water-tight enclosure in position (A)
2- If you are using buffer batteries (optionals), secure the relevant support in position (B).
3- Insert the batteries in the support.
4- Secure the control unit in position (C) with the 4 self-tapping screws (supplied), placing the supplied
spacers between the control unit and the relevant support.
5- Secure the board support to the enclosure, using the supplied screws.
Using the four diam.6 plastic expansion plugs and relevant securing screws (not supplied), install the
enclosure of the unit (to which all the accessories and pulse generators will then be connected), on the side
of the gate supplied with 230V current (which must be connected to the toroidal transformer to change it
to 13V) and near to the operator.
Route the electrical cables in the lower part of the enclosure, using adequate rigid tubes and/or hoses and
appropriate connections.
Leave the cables inside the enclosure lengthy enough to enable you to wire up.
Secure two water-tight (IP 55) pull-boxes (not
supplied), one for each operator, for wiring
up.
Use 12-terminal wiring bars (not supplied).
According to the mains voltage, the voltage coming out of the transformer
can differ from the value given in paragraph 2.2.1. Before putting the
control unit into service, we recommend you to check if the voltage
coming out of the transformer is between 12Vac and 14.5 Vac.This value
is to be checked with load-free transformer, i.e. with the transformer
powered but disconnected from the board.

2.2.2 PRESENTATION OF THE BOARD
DESCRIPTION OF TERMINALS
TERMINAL BOARD CN1(power supply)
Terminals “1-2” (VAC-VAC): Connect, to these terminals, the secondary winding wires arriving from the
toroidal transformer. Power ON is indicated by the lighting up of LED DL1 "power".
Terminals “3-4” (+BAT-BAT): Connect the 2 optional batteries to these terminals. During normal operation,
the control unit keeps the batteries charged. The batteries come into operation when the transformer does
not supply power.
During connection, respect the polarity indicated on the board.
A maximum of two batteries, connected in parallel, can be connected to the control unit.
Power supply provided by the batteries should be considered an emergency situation.
The number of possible manoeuvres depends on the quality of the batteries, the gate's structure
(weight, dimensions, condition of the pivot , etc…), and on the time since power was cut, etc, etc.
Terminals “5-6” (+OUT-OUT): Output for 12Vdc power supply to the accessories.
The maximum load of the accessories must not exceed 150mA.
Terminal “ ”: Connect the earthing cable to this terminal. The earthing cable must be connected to the
earthing system of the 230V~ power supply line.
The connection is absolutely necessary for correct operation of the control unit.
TERMINAL BOARD CN2 (motors)
Terminals “7-8” (OPM1-CLM1): The motor power cable must be connected to these terminals. For two-
motor installations, the power cable of the motor which opens first must be connected to these terminals.
Terminals “9-10” (OPM2-CLM2): The power cable of the motor opening second must be connected to these
terminals. For one motor only installation, no device must be connected to these terminals.
Terminals “11-12” (COM1-EL-S): (optional) The electric lock, if any, with 12 Vdc / 15W max power supply,
must be connected to these terminals.
For 2-leaf installations, the electric lock must always be fitted on the leaf of motor M1, the one which opens
first.
Terminals “12-13” (COM1-LAMP): Connect, to these terminals, the flashing light with power supply of
12Vdc 21W max. Before every manoeuvre, the flashing light pre-flashes for 0.5 sec.
Use a steady light flashing lamp; flashing is controlled by the control unit.
We advise you to install the flashing lamp before programming, because it indicates its phases.
TERMINAL-BOARD CN3 (commands and safety devices)

Page 7
Rev. 01.2006 - Istallation Manual
Terminals “14-18” (OPEN A-COM1): Normally open contact.Connect, to these terminals,any pulse generator
(e.g.push-button, key selector,etc..) which, by closing a contact,generates a pulse for totally opening or
closing the gate. The operation of this input is defined by dip-switch 3 - see paragraph 2.5.1.
Terminals “15-18” (OPEN B-COM1): Normally open contact. Connect, to these terminals, any pulse generator
(e.g. push-button, key selector, etc..) which, by closing a contact, generates a pulse for partially opening
the gate.
In two-motor installations (Dip-switch 5=ON); partial opening corresponds to the total opening of the leaf
on which the motor M1 is installed.
In single-motor applications (Dip-switch 5=OFF), partial opening coincides with an opening of about ~80%
of the total memory-stored opening.
If a total opening command (OPEN A) is given during the partial opening stage, the control unit memory
stores the command, which is executed when partial opening has finished.
Terminals “16-18” (FSW-COM1): Normally closed contact. Connect, to these terminals, any safety device
(photocell, pressure switch, safety edge etc..) which, by opening a contact, affects the gate's closing
motion, reversing it to the mechanical opening stop, without disabling automatic re-closure if it is enabled.
The status of this input is signalled by LED "FSW".
This contact can be disabled with dip-switch 6 - see paragraph 2.5.1.
If you decide to disable the photocells, you do not have to jumper the input.
The control unit is supplied with the photocell input disabled.
Terminals “17-18” (STOP-COM1): Normally closed contact. Connect, to these terminals, any pulse generator
(push-button, key selector, etc..) which, by opening a contact, immediately stops the gate and disables all
automatic functions. The status of this input is signalled by the "STOP"LED. The gate resumes its memory-
stored cycle only by means of another total or partial opening pulse.
This contact can be disabled with dip-switch 7 - see paragraph 2.5.1.
If you decide to disable the stop command, you do not have to jumper the input.
The control unit is supplied with the stop command input disabled.

2.5 PROGRAMMING
2.5.1 PROGRAMMING THE OPERATING PARAMETERS
The multi-function control board has a dip-switch (DP1) for programming the operating parameters.
Dip-switch DP1 is used for setting various parameters, such as the operating logic, automatic closing, and
enabling/disabling the safety devices, etc..
All selectable parameters are shown in the table below.
To avoid compromising the condition and operation of the control unit, parameters must be set with the
control unit powered down.
We advise you to select the parameters you require before programming.
2.5.2 ELECTRONIC CLUTCH
This control unit has an electronic clutch device based on the control of the current absorbed by each motor.
This device is very important for the purpose of safety.
It is active during both closing and opening. When it operates, it reverses gate movement without disabling
automatic closing if enabled.
If it operates for two consecutive times, the control unit goes into "STOP" status, disabling all automatic
functions. This is because, when the clutch operates twice consecutively, it means that the obstacle is still
present and it could be dangerous to perform any other manoeuvre. When the obstacle has been removed,
give a "START" pulse and the control unit will resume the memory-stored cycle.
If the clutch operates three consecutive times, and for more than 120 seconds, the control unit performs an
"EMERGENCY" procedure: i.e. it executes opening until the opening mechanical stop is reached, and
then closes, if automatic closing has been enabled. In this way the control unit synchronises itself
automatically, and automatically re-calculates the opening and closing stop points.
The "EMERGENCY" procedure occurs while the motors are turning at low speed.

2.5.3 PROGRAMMING OPENING, CLOSING TIMES AND GATE PAUSE
During this stage, the control unit memory stores work time and any pause time.
To access programming, follow the instructions below:
1- Release the operators (see the instructions on the mechanical operators) and take the leaves to about
halfway of the opening travel.
2- Relock the operators (see the instructions on the mechanical operators) and power up the system.
3- Turn ON dip-switch 8 on the control unit. The flashing lamp lights up on steady beam to indicate entry
to the programming procedure.
4- Give a total opening pulse with the "START" push-button or with the radio control (if already memory
stored) and the leaves will begin to move.
The first manoeuvre the control unit carries out is closing.
5- Make sure that both leaves perform the closing manoeuvre and that the leaf with motor M2 moves
first.
If this does not happen, stop gate movement with a "RESET" pulse, jumper connecting the two
"RESET" pins to each other and using the connector (see figure).
6- Cut the power supply and take the connector back to its normal position (see figure).
7- Make the suitable corrections to the motor connections, and repeat from point 4, changing over the
cables of the motors on connector CN2 (see paragraph 2.3.).
8- When they reach the closing mechanical stop point, the leaves pause for two seconds, and then begin
the opening stage
9- When both leaves reach the opening mechanical stop point, the pause time count begins.
10- When the required pause time has elapsed, give a total opening pulse.
The leaves begin the closing stage.
11- When the leaves reach the closing stop, programming has finished.
12- Turn OFF dip-switch 8 - the flashing lamp goes OFF to finish programming.
