AUTOMATION SYSTEM 550 & 550 MPD
These instructions apply to the following models:
550 I - 550 Slave
TheFAAC 550 automation systemisdesigned to operate residential
counterbalanced up-and-over garage doors.
It consists of an electromechanical operator, a control unit
with courtesy light and a protective cover integrated into a
single unit to be mounted on the garage door panel using the
relevant accessories.
The irreversible system locks the door mechanically when the
motor is not running, so a lock is not required. A manual release
device allows the door to be operated in the case of a power
failure or malfunction.
Anti-crushing safety is assured by an adjustable electronic
device.
The 550 automation system allows two operators (550 I + 550
Slave) to be installed on the same door.
The 550 automation system has been designed and constructed
for vehicle access control. Do not use for any other purpose.

4. INSTALLING THE AUTOMATION SYSTEM
4.1. PRELIMINARY CHECKS
To ensure safe, proper operation of the automation system,
check the following:
•The door’s structure must be suitable for automation.
Make particularly sure that dimensions of the door meet
the requirements given in the technical specifications and
that the door is sufficiently robust.
•Check the condition of the door bearings and joints.
•Check that the door moves smoothly. If necessary clean
the tracks and lubricate them with a silicone based lubri-
cant. Do not use grease.
•Check that the door is correctly balanced.
•Remove the mechanical door locks so that when the door
is closed it is locked only by the automation system.
•Check that there is an effective earth connection for the
geared motor.
The 550 automation system is designed to operate various
types of counterbalanced up-and-over garage doors. Fig. 4
shows the most common types:
햲single section outward swinging
햳double section outward swinging
햴single section inward swinging with horizontal tracks
4.2. POSITIONING TELESCOPIC ARMS
The gap between the existing
balancing arm and the frame
(distance ”S1”in Fig. 5) must be at
least 15 mm to allow the straight
telescopicarmstorotatecorrectly.
If not, it is possible to use curved
telescopic arms which can be
installed over the top of existing
balancing arms. Check that the
gap between the door panel and
the frame is at least 20 mm
(distance ”S2”in Fig. 5).
4.3. POSITIONING OPERATOR/BACK PLATE
In accordance with the measurements given in Table 1, install
either a single operator (550 I) at the centre of the door as shown
in Fig. 6 or two operators (one 550 I and one 550 Slave) at the sides
of the door as shown in Fig. 7.
The operator 550 is designed so that the geared motor unit can
be installed with the drive shaft at two different heights (see
section 6).
The following instructions apply to both assembly options,
although they refer specifically to installation of the operator with
the geared motor unit as it is delivered from the factory.

•With the drive shaft at the top (Fig. 17)
The card support is fixed to the geared motor by means of 4
bolts which engage with nuts inserted in the guides.
•With the drive shaft at the bottom (Fig. 18)
The card support is fixed to the electric motor cap by means
of 4 screws.
The cover is designed for both applications (note that in the two
casesthereleasedeviceislocatedindifferentpositions).Thereare
alsotwotabsforfixingthe power cable to the clear light fixture (Fig.
19).
(1) when pre-flashing is selected, movement begins after pre-flashing time has elapsed.
5.4. AUTOMATED SYSTEM TEST
Notes on operation :
•The 550MPD control board effects an electronic control (motor
must be connected) before every start. If you try to make the
control board operate without any motor load or insufficient
load, no power is supplied at motor output.
•The courtesy light is activated when the motor starts and stays
lighted for the programmed time as soon as movement finishes.
5.4.1. ROTATION DIRECTION CHECK
1) Cut power to the system.
2) Move the door by hand to mid-open position.
3) Lock the operator (see chapter 8)
4) Power up.
5) Send an opening pulse (OPEN) and check if the motor opens
the door.
If the door closes, reverse the phases of the electric motor (brown
and black wires) on the control board terminal board.
For the two-operator application, assign the same wiring colour
code to the "COM,OP,CL" terminals of the 550MPD control board
andthe 550 Slave card, andif you have to reverse phases, reverse
them for both motors.
5.4.2. SETTING OPERATING TIME
In " Basic Programming ", set an operating time enabling the
electric motor to receive power for a few seconds after the door
reaches the mechanical stops. This setting is also the maximum
time for reaching the limit-switches (optional).
5.4.3. SETTING PAUSE TIME
If using the Automatic logic, pause time can be adjusted by
accessing " Basic Programming ".
5.4.4 ADJUSTINGTHE ELECTRONIC CLUTCH (ANTI-CRUSHING)
The 550MPD control board is supplied with an electronic system
for adjusting motor torque, which (according to adjustment)limits
door thrust in the event of any obstacles. After the obstacle is
removed,the door resumes moving either until it reaches the limit-
switch or when operating time has elapsed. To adjust, access
" Basic Programming ". Adjust the electronic clutch in compliance
with current standards.
PRE-FLASHING of flashing lamp:
Adjustable from to sec. in one-
second steps.
Exit from programming and return to
display of inputs status.

SAFETY DEVICES TRIPPING MODE:
Sets operation of motor when safety
devices are engaged:
= FSWOP stops the opening
movement which, after
disengagement, resumes
opening. FSWCL reverse the
closing movement.
= whenthe up-and-over door is closed,
open or locked and FSWCL is
engaged, the Open pulse activates
the flashing lamp and movement
begins only when FSWCL(1) is
disengaged.
During movement, FSWOP reverses
and FSWCL locks and reverses at
disengagement(1).
= FSWOP reverses opening
movement, FSWCL reverses
closing movement.
(1) when pre-flashing is selected, movement begins after
pre-flashing time has elapsed.
