1.4.1 Connection of Photocells and Safety Devices
Before connecting the photocells (or other devices), it is
advisable to select the type of operation according to the
movement area they have to protect (see Fig.C):
Opening Safety Devices:
They operate only during the gate opening movement and,
therefore, are suitable for protecting the area between the
opening leaves and xed obstacles (walls, etc) against the
risk of impact and crushing.
Opening/Closing Safety Devices
Closing Safety Devices Opening Safety
Devices
Connection of ONE Pair of Closing Photocells
and ONE Pair of Opening/Closing Photocells
(Recommended Layout)
Closing Safety Devices:
They operate only during the gate closing movement and,
therefore, they are suitable for protecting the closing area
against the risk of impact.
Opening/Closing Safety Devices:
They operate during the gate opening and closing move-
ments and, therefore, they are suitable for the opening and
closing areas against the risk of impact.
FAAC recommends use of the lay-out in Fig. D (in the
event of xed obstacles at opening) or in Fig. E (no xed
obstacles).
N.B. If two or more devices have the same function (opening or
closing), they should be connected to each other in series (see
Fig. L).
Connection of ONE Closing Safety Device and
ONE Opening Safety Device
Connection of ONE Pair of Closing Photocells,
ONE Pair of Opening Photocells and
ONE Pair of Opening/Closing Photocells
(Recommended Layout)
Connection of NO Safety Devices
NOTE: All safety devices must be connected using
NORMALLY CLOSED outputs.

This is used for rapid connection to RP receivers (see Fig.
Q). Connect the accessory with the components side facing
the inside of the card. Insert and remove with power OFF.
1.4.4 Terminal Block J1 - Accessories (Fig. B)
OPEN A - “Total Opening” Command (N.O.):
Any pulse generator (push-button, detector, etc.) which, by closing
a contact, commands opening and/or closing of both gate leaves.
To install several full opening pulse generators, connect the N.O.
contacts in parallel.
OPEN B - “Partial Opening” Command (N.O.) / Closing:
Any pulse generator (push-button, detector, etc.) which, by closing
a contact, commands opening and/or closing of the leaf driven by
motor M1. In the Band Clogics, it always commands closing of both
leaves. To install several partial opening pulse generators, connect
the N.O. contacts in parallel.
STP - STOP Contact (N.C.):
Any device (e.g. a push-button) which, by opening a contact, is able
to stop gate movement. To install several STOP devices, connect
the N.C. contacts in series.
NB: If STOP devices are not connected, jumper connect the
STP terminals and -.
CL FSW - Closing Safety Devices Contact (N.C.):
The purpose of the closing safety devices is to protect the leaf move-
ment area during closing. During closing, in the E-A-S-EP-AP-SP
logics, the safety devices reverse the movement of the gate leaves,
or stop and reverse the movement when they are released (see Ad-
vanced Programming in Section 13.5.2). During the closing cycle in
logics Band C, they interrupt movement. They never operate during
the opening cycle. If the closing safety devices operate when the
gate is open, they prevent the leaf closing movement.
NB: If no closing safety devices are connected, jumper connect
terminals CL and -TX FSW (Fig. G).
OP FSW - Opening safety devices contact (N.C.):
The purpose of the opening safety devices is to protect the leaf move-
ment area during opening. During opening, in the
E-A-S-EP-AP-SP
logics,
the safety devices reverse the movement of the gate leaves
.
During the opening cycle in logics Band C, they interrupt movement.
They never operate during the closing cycle.
If the opening safety devices operate when the gate is closed, they
prevent the leaf opening movement.
NB: If no opening safety devices are connected, jumper connect
inputs OP and -TX FSW (Fig. G).
– - Negative for power supply to accessories
+ - 24 VDC - Positive for power supply to accessories
Important: Accessories max. load is 500 mA. To calculate current
draw, refer to the instructions for individual accessories.
-TX FSW - Negative for power supply to photocell transmitters.
If you use this terminal for connecting the negative for supplying
power to the photocell transmitters, you may, if necessary, also use
the FAIL SAFE function (see Advanced Programming in Section
13.5.2).
If this function is enabled, the equipment checks operation of the
photocells before each opening or closing cycle.
1.4.5 Terminal Block J5 - Indicator-Light and Electric
Lock
W.L. - Power supply to indicator-light
Connect a 24 VDC - 3 W max. indicator-light, if necessary, between
this terminal and the +24V supply. To avoid compromising correct
operation of the system, do not exceed the indicated power.
LOCK - Power supply to electric lock
If necessary, connect a 12 VAC electric strike lock between this
terminal and the +24V power supply. Please refer to Chapter 16 for
Magnetic Lock connection.

Exit from programming and return to inputs status
monitoring.
These inputs are designed for connection of opening
and closing limit-switches or Gatecoders
The 400 operator cannot use limit switches but only
Gatecoders. They are used to detect the leaf’s angular
position and to thus obtain deceleration and stop
positions more accurately than using the operating
timing.
Please refer to Figure S for wiring information. If the
Gatecoders are not used the J6 inputs can be left
unconnected.
To program the 455D Control Board, you have to access “PRO-
GRAMMING” mode. Programming is split into two parts: BASIC and
ADVANCED.

1.5 Programming
+
This is a brief description of the main operating logics of the
system. For a complete description please refer to Table 3
• A (automatic): The gate opens on command and auto-
matically closes after a pause phase. A second com-
mand while opening is ignored; a second command dur-
ing the pause phase interrupts the pause time; a second
command during closing reopens the gate. A maintained
open command will hold the gate open.
• S (security): The security mode is like A logic except that
a second command during opening immediately closes
the gate. A maintained open command will not hold the
gate open.
• E (semi-automatic): This mode requires a second com-
mand during opening stops the gate. A second command
during closing reopens the gate.
• EP (semi-automatic, step by step): This mode requires
a command to open and a command to close. A second
command during opening or closing causes the gate to
stop. A third command then reverses the previous motion
of the gate.
• B (manned, pulsed): This mode is designed for guard
station use and requires a three button switch (pulsed) to
open, close, and stop the gate.
• C (manned and constant): This mode requires constant
pressure switches. One to open and one to close. No
pressure on a switch stops the gate.

The following table shows the sequence of functions
accessible in ADVANCED PROGRAMMING:
ADVANCED PROGRAMMING
MAXIMUM TORQUE AT INITIAL THRUST:
The motors operate at maximum torque (ignoring
the torque setting) at start of movement. Useful
for heavy leaves.
= Active = Disabled
LAST STROKE AT CLOSING:
The motors are activated at full speed for 1
second to facilitate locking of the electric lock.
= Active =Disabled
REVERSING STROKE:
Before opening, while the gate is closed, the
motors thrust to close for 2 seconds thus
facilitating release of the electric lock.
= Active = Disabled
LEAF 2 OPENING DELAY (2 s):
Enables delayed start (at opening) of leaf 2,
avoiding interference between leaves.
= Active = Disabled
FAIL SAFE:
If this function is activated, it enables a function
test of the photocells before any gate movement.
If the test fails (photocells not serviceable), the
gate does not start the movement.
= Active = Disabled
PRE-FLASHING (5 s):
Activates the ashing lamp for 5 seconds before
start of movement.
= Active = Disabled
ELECTRIC LOCK ON LEAF 2:
For using the electric lock on leaf 2 instead of
on leaf 1.
= Active = Disabled
INDICATOR-LIGHT:
If is selected, the output functions as a
standard indicator-light (lighted at opening and
pause, ashing at closing, and off when gate is
closed). Different gures correspond to the extra
time compared to normal work time (opening or
closing) when the output can be used - via a relay
- to power a courtesy light. Time can be adjusted
from to sec. in 1 sec. steps, and from
to min. in 10 sec. steps.
= Standard indicator-light
from to = Timed output
CLOSING PHOTOCELLS REVERSE AT
RELEASE:
Enable this function if you want the closing
photocells to stop movement and reverse at
release. Default setting is immediate reverse.
= Active = Disabled
ASSISTANCE REQUEST (combined with
next function):
If activated, at the end of countdown (settable
with the next function i.e. “Cycle programming”)
it affects 8 s of pre-ashing at every Open pulse
(job request). Can be useful for setting scheduled
maintenance jobs.
= Active = Disabled
CYCLE PROGRAMMING:
For setting countdown of system operation
cycles. Settable (in thousands) from to
thousand cycles. The displayed value is updated
as cycles proceed.
This function can be used to check use of the
board or to exploit the “Assistance request”.
A.D.M.A.P. FUNCTION:
When enabled, the safety devices operate in
compliance with French standard NFP 25/362.
= Active = Disabled
Exit from programming and return to inputs
status monitoring.
NB: Parameter modications take effect immediately. Exit
out of programming to save changes. If the equipment is
powered down before returning to normal status monitoring,
any unsaved modications will be lost.
To restore programming defaults, press and hold the
three buttons +, -, F simultaneously for 5 seconds.
ANTI-CRUSHING SENSITIVITY:
When operating with the gatecoder, it controls
anti-crushing sensitivity.
= Low = High.
EXTRA WORK TIME:
When operating without a gatecoder and limit-
switch, if reversing occurs, and if the leaf does
not reach its end contact point, you can activate
this function to increase work time.

455 D Control Board
Figure U
The board has a two-digit display. When not in “PROGRAMMING”
mode, this display is used to indicate the status of inputs. Fig. U
shows how the LED segments of the display exactly correspond to
the inputs.
The table below shows the status of the LEDs in relation to the
status of the inputs.
Note the following: LED ON = closed contact
LED OFF = open contact
Operation of the Status Signaling LEDs
The status of the LEDs while the gate is closed at rest are shown in bold.
1. Program the functions of the 455 D control board according to
need, as previously shown.
2. Cut power to the electronic control equipment.
3. Release the operators and manually move the gate to the
mid-point of the opening angle.
4. Re-lock the operators.
5. Restore power.
6. Send and opening command on the OPEN A input (Fig.B)
and check if the gate leaves are being commanded to open.
N.B: If the rst OPEN A pulse commands a closing, cut power
and reverse the phases of the electric motor (red and black
wires) on the 455 D control board.
7.
Check force setting of the motors, modify if necessary (see
Section 13.5.1).
N.B: For hydraulic operators, like the 400, force should be pro-
grammed to maximum level (50)
8. Stop leaf movement with a STOP command.
9. Release the operators, close the leaves and re-lock the
operators.
Opening/closing time is established by a learning procedure which
varies slightly according to whether you are using Gatecoders or not.
13.6.3.1 LEARNING NORMAL TIMES
Normal learning (i.e. without limit-switches and Gatecoders) can be
accomplished in two ways:
- SIMPLE LEARNING (Without Slow Down):
Check that the leaves are closed. Enter “BASIC PROGRAMMING,”
select the TIME LEARNING function and then press the +push-
button for 1 second. The display begins ashing and the leaves
begin to open.
As soon as the leaves reach the opening contact point, provide an
OPEN A pulse (with the key operated push-button or with the radio
control) to stop the movement. The leaves stop and the display
stops ashing.
Press push-button Fto exit and save the programming. The
procedure is complete and the gate is ready to operate.
- COMPLETE LEARNING (With Slow Down):
Check that the leaves are closed. Enter “BASIC PROGRAMMING,”
select the TIME LEARNING function and then press the +push-
button for more than 3 seconds. The display begins ashing and
leaf 1 begins to open. The following functions can be performed by
sending OPEN A pulses (by key push-button or radio control):
1° OPEN - Slow down at opening of leaf 1
2° OPEN - Leaf 1 stops at opening and leaf 2 begins its opening
movement
3° OPEN - Slow down at opening of leaf 2
4° OPEN - Leaf 2 stops at opening and immediately begins its
closing movement
5° OPEN - Slow down at closing of leaf 2
6° OPEN - Leaf 2 stops at closing and leaf 1 begins its closing
movement
7° OPEN - Slow down at closing of leaf 1
8° OPEN - Leaf 1 stops at closing
When the display stops ashing, press push-button Fto exit and
save the programming. The procedure is complete and the gate is
ready to operate.
Notes:
• If you wish to eliminate deceleration in certain stages, wait for the
leaf to reach its stop-limit and supply 2 consecutive Open pulses
(by 1 second).
• If only one leaf is present, the entire sequence must nevertheless
be effected. When the leaf has nished opening, supply 5 Open
pulses until the leaf begins to close, and then resume normal
operation.
WARNING: During the learning procedure, safety
devices are disabled! Avoid crossing the leaf
movement area when this operation is carried out.
Make sure travel limit mechanical stops are present.

1.6.1 LED Check
1.6.2 Rotation Direction and Force Check
1.6.3 Learning Operating Times
Learning with the Gatecoder can be accomplished in two ways:
- SIMPLE LEARNING (With Slow Down):
Check that the leaves are closed. Access “BASIC PROGRAM-
MING,” select the TIME LEARNING function and then press the
+push-button for 1 second: the display begins ashing and the
leaves begin the opening movement.
The movement stops automatically when the opening stop limit is
reached. The display will stop ashing.
Press push-button Fto exit and save the programming. The proce-
dure is complete and the gate is ready to operate, using the default
slow down set at the factory.
- COMPLETE LEARNING (With Slow Down):
Check that the leaves are closed. Access “BASIC PROGRAM-
MING,” select the TIME LEARNING function and then press the +
push-button for more than 3 seconds. The display begins ashing
and leaf 1 begins to open. The following functions can be performed
by sending OPEN A pulses (by radio control or key push-button):

1° OPEN - Leaf 1 slows down at opening (it stops automatically on
reaching the stop limit)
2° OPEN - Leaf 2 opening movement begins
3° OPEN - Leaf 2 slows down at opening (it stops automatically on
reaching the stop limit)
4° OPEN - Leaf 2 closing movement begins
5° OPEN - Leaf 2 slows down at closing (it stops automatically on
reaching the stop limit)
6° OPEN - Leaf 1 closing movement begins
7° OPEN - Leaf 1 slows down at closing (it stops automatically on
reaching the stop limit)
8° OPEN - End of learning
When the display stops ashing, press push-button F to exit and
save the programming. The procedure is complete and the gate is
ready to operate.
Notes:
• The slow down pulse should be given before the gate reaches
the positive stop to prevent the leaf from hitting it at full speed
(it would be mistaken for an obstacle).
• If only one leaf is present, the entire sequence must neverthe-
less be effected. When the leaf has nished opening, supply
5 Open pulses until the leaf begins to close, and then resume
normal operation.
1.7 System Test
When you are nished programming, test the system. Verify that
the entire system operates correctly. Most importantly, check that
force is adequately adjusted and that safety devices are operating
correctly.

AC Power Wiring Guidelines
1. Check local wiring codes in all cases and follow all
local building codes. Wiring and hookup should be
performed by qualied electricians/installers only.
2. AC power should be supplied from a circuit
breaker panel and must have its own dedicated
circuit breaker. This supply must include a green
ground conductor.
3. Properly ground the gate operator to minimize or
prevent damage from power surges and/or light-
ning. Use a grounding rod if necessary. A surge
suppressor is recommended for additional protec-
tion.
AC Power
Connection
1. Turn the circuit
breaker for the
AC gate operator
power to OFF before
connecting the AC
input wires.
2. Turn the Power
Switch located on
the left side of the
prewired enclosure
to OFF before
connecting the AC
input wires.
3. Connect the AC
input wires to the
AC terminal located
on the top left of
the enclosure. See
diagram on the right.
Magnetic Lock Connection
When connecting a magnetic lock to the system,
use Maglock Relay Kit (P/N: 2352) and connect it as
follows:
