5 INSTALLING THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM
5.1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS
For the safety and correct operation of the automated system, ensure that the following conditions are met:
• The gate structure must be designed to be automated. In particular, the diameter of the wheels must conform to the weight of
the gate being automated, there must be a guide on top and mechanical limit switches sized to suit the weight and speed of the
movable leaf, to avoid derailment of the gate;
• Initially, leave at least 10 cm of clearance between the movable leaf stopping points (FCO and FCC) and the
mechanical stops of the gate. The final adjustment is made once the inverter programming procedure is completed.
Minimum distance 3 cm.
• The gate sliding rail must be linear and horizontal.
• Manual movement of the gate must be smooth along the entire stroke.
• The characteristics of the ground must guarantee sufficient solidity of the foundation plinth.
• No tubes or electrical cables should be present in the plinth digging area.
• If the gearmotor is exposed to vehicle transit, provide for adequate protection against accidental impact, when possible.
• Ensure that there is an efficient earth plate for connecting the gearmotor.
Should the various elements not meet the above-mentioned conditions, adjust them so they do.

11.4.2 PHOTOCELL CONNECTION TO RELAYS AND SAFETY DEVICES WITH “N.C.” CONTACT
The E850 board is designed to connect to closing safety devices that trip only during gate closing movement, and are therefore
suitable for protecting the gate closing area form risk of impact.
If the connection of two or more safety devices is required (N.C. contacts), they must be placed in series, as
shown in figures 29, 30, and 31 under the wording “SAFE”.

11.4.3 BUS PHOTOCELL CONNECTION
BUS-technology photocells are connected to the E850 control unit ALL IN PARALLEL, as shown in Fig. 32 and Fig. 33 using a single
power supply/communication line.
BUS photocells and pulse generators do not require a matching polarity connection.
The board is designed to connect up to 8 pairs of BUS 2easy photocells.
The photocells are divided by quantity in the following groups:
Pairs of CLOSING photocells: max 7
Pairs of photocells for OPEN pulse: max 1

After positioning the BUS-technology photocells, proceed with
selecting the address for each pair using various combinations of
the DIP-SWITCHES located on each photocell.
Set the SAME chosen DIP-SWITCH ADDRESS on both
the transmitter and receiver of the same pair.
Ensure that two or more pairs of photocells do not
have the same address.
If no BUS accessories are used, leave terminals 18 and
19 free.
The following table describes how to set the dip-switches located
inside the transmitter and receiver of the BUS photocells.

To allow operation of the installed BUS acces-
sories, store them on the board, as described
in paragraph 11.5.3.

If a 2-channel receiver is used, like the RP2, it will be possible to
directly command automated system OPEN and CLOSE from a
2-channel radio control.
If a 1-channel receiver is used, like the RP, it will only be possible
to command OPEN.
Connect the accessory with the components side facing inside
the board.
Boards should be connected or disconnected
ONLY after having cut off electrical power.

11.5 PROGRAMMING
To program automated system operation, you must access “PROGRAMMING”
mode.
Programming is divided into three levels: BASIC,ADVANCED and EXPERT.
Changes to the programming parameters become
immediately effective, while final storage occurs
only upon exiting programming and returning to the
automated system status display. If the equipment
is powered down before returning to the automated
system status display, all changes made will be lost.
It is possibleto returnto the statusdisplay at anypoint
during programming at any level by simultaneously
pressing “F” and “-”
11.5.1 BASIC PROGRAMMING LEVEL
BASIC PROGRAMMING LEVEL is accessed by pressing F:
• when pressed (and held) the name of the first function is displayed.
• releasing the key, the function value is displayed and can be modified
using the +and - keys.
• when Fis pressed again (and held) the name of the following function
is displayed, and so on.
• once the last function is reached, pressing Fwill exit programming
mode and the display will go back to showing the inputs status.
Display Funzione Default

LOOP 2:
When this function is enabled, the loop
connected to the Loop2 input will serve as a
SAFETY / CLOSE function, i.e. it will operate
as a SAFETY during closing and, once it
is uncovered, it will command the board to
CLOSE.
Y= loop2 active
no = loop2 not active
Warning: if the function does not activate, the
state of Loop2 will in any case be available
on one of the duly set outputs (see advanced
programming level).

BOOST LOOP 1 FUNCTION:
Y= Active no = Disabled
This function lets you increase the sensitivity
level at the time of detection. When the vehicle
moves away from the loop, the sensitivity will
return to the selected level. This system makes
it possible to maintain the detection contact
even in case of very tall vehicles or during the
transit of a tractor with trailer.

Display of the automated system status Stis ex-
tremely important for the installation/maintenance
technician in order to distinguish the logical pro-
cessesthatthe board carriesout during movement.
If, for example, the automated system status is
CLOSED, the display MUST read
00. When the
OPEN command is received, the display will chan-
ge to 01, if pre-flashing is enabled, or directly to
02 (the OPENING movement) to then display 03
once the OPEN gate position is reached.
