Notes on rack installation
• Makesure that, duringthe gate travel,all the rack elementsdo
not exit the pinion.
• Do not, on any account, weld the rack elements either to the
spacers or to each other.
• When the rack has been installed, to ensure it meshes
correctly with the pinion, we advise
you to lower the gearmotor position
by about 1.5 mm (Fig.17).
• Manually check if the gate
habitually reaches the mechanical
stop limits and make sure there is no
friction during gate travel.
• Do not use grease or other lubricants
between rack and pinion.

5.4.1. Connection of photocells and safety devices
Before connecting the safety devices and photocells we advise
you to select the type of operation according to the movement
area they have to protect (see fig.24 for example):
Opening safety devices: they are tripped when an obstacle is
detected only during gate opening movement. They
cause immediate closure and resumption of opening
motion on release (see programming in par. 5.5.2.)
Closing safety devices: they are tripped when an obstacle is
detected only during gate closing movement. They
cause re-opening, either immediate or on release
(see programming in par. 5.5.2.)
Opening/closing safety devices: they are tripped during the
gate opening and closing movements. They cause
stopping and restart motion on release.
"Edge" safety devices: they are tripped during the gate opening
and closing movements. They cause immediate
reversal of motion and stopping after two seconds.
Encoder: it is tripped if there is an obstacle during gate opening
and closing movements. It causes immediate reversal
of motion and stopping after two seconds.
N.B. If two or more safety devices have the same function
(opening, closing, opening and closing, edge), the contacts
must be connected to each other in series (fig. 25).
N.C. contacts must be used.
N.B: If safety devices are not used, jumper connect the terminals
as shown in fig. 26.

Note 1: to reset the programming default settings, check if the
edge input is closed (SAFE LED ON), and simultaneously
press keys +, - and F, holding them down for 5 seconds.
Note 2: modification of programming parameters comes into
effectimmediately, whereas definitive memory storage
occurs only when you exit programming and return to
gate status viewing. If the equipment is powered down
before return to status viewing, all modifications will be
lost.
Pre-limit switch DECELERATION:
You can select gate deceleration before the
opening and closing limit-switches have been
tripped.
Time can be adjusted from to in
0.1-second steps.
If an encoder is used, the adjustment is not
determined by time but by motor revs, thus
obtaining greater deceleration precision.
= Deceleration disabled
from to = Deceleration enabled
Post-limitswitch DECELERATION:
You can select gate deceleration after the
opening and closing limit-switches have been
tripped.
Time can be adjusted from to in
0.1-second steps.
If an encoder is used, the adjustment is not
determined by time but by motor revs, thus
obtaining greater deceleration precision.
= Deceleration disabled
from to = Deceleration enabled
ASSISTANCE REQUEST (combined with next
function):
If activated, at the end of countdown
(settable with the next function i.e. "Cycle
programming") it effects 2 sec. (in addition to
the value already set with the PF function) of
pre-flashing at every Open pulse (job
request). Can be useful for setting scheduled
maintenance jobs.
= Active
= Disabled
WORKTIME (tome-out):
We advise you to set a value of 5 to 10
seconds over the time taken by the gate to
travel from the closing limit-switch to the
opening limit-switch and vice versa.
Adjustable from to sec. in one-
second steps.
Subsequently, display changes to minutes
and tens of seconds (separated by a point)
and time is adjusted in 10 second steps, up to
a maximum value of minutes.
Attention: the set value does not exactly
match the motor's maximum operating time,
because the latter is modified according to
the performed deceleration spaces.
PARTIALOPENING:
You can adjust the width of partial leaf
opening.
Time can be adjusted from to in
1 second steps.
If an encoder is used, the adjustment is not
determined by time but by motor revs, thus
obtaining greater partial-opening precision.
For example, with pinion Z20, partial opening
can vary from about 60 cm to 4 m.
CYCLEPROGRAMMING:
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".

6. START-UP
6.1. ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
Make all electrical connections to the board as in chapter 5,
including earthing of the operator (Fig. 40).
6.3. DETERMINING THE STOP POINTS AT TRAVEL LIMIT
Operator 746 has a limit sensor switch which, by detecting the
transit of a reference applied to the rack, commands the gate
motor to stop. The device can be MLS (fig. 41) or inductive (fig.
42).
6.3.1. MLS limit-switch
The MLS limit sensor switch detects the transit of two magnets
fitted on the side of the rack facing the operator.
Procedurefor correct positioning of thetwo supplied magnets:
1) Check if the operator is in manual mode (see chapter 8).
2) Manually take the gate to opening position, leaving 2 - 5 cm
from the travel limit mechanical stop.
3) Fit the magnet (without removing the protective film from the
adhesive side) on the side of the rack facing the operator,
aligning the upper edges. Slide the magnet on the rack in
opening direction until the relevant LED goes off (Fig. 22 and
41), then move the magnet forward a further 45 mm.
4) Manually take the gate to closing position, leaving 2 - 5 cm
from the travel limit mechanical stop.
5) Fit the magnet (without removing the protective film from the
adhesive side) on the side of the rack facing the operator,
aligning the upper edges. Slide the magnet on the rack in
closingdirection until the relevantLEDgoes off (Fig.22and 41),
then move the magnet forward by about a further 45 mm.
6) Take the gate to itshalfway travel point and relockthe system
(seechapter 9).
7) Find out the desired pre- and post-limit-switch deceleration
values(see parag. 5.5.2)and run theautomated system forat
least one complete cycle.
8) Check if the gate stops at about 2 - 5 cm from its mechanical
stop point. If necessary, correct the position of the magnets
and check if the stop point is correct.
9) Mark the position of the magnets on the rack, and remove
them.
10) Clean the rack on its fitting points, remove the film on the
adhesivepartsofthe magnets (fig. 41ref.1)andre-position the
magnetswiththe adhesive strip incontactwiththe rack (fig. 41
ref. 2).
6.3.2. Inductivelimit-switch
Operator 746 has an inductive limit-switch which detects the
transit of the two steel plates fitted on the top of the rack.
Procedure for correct positioning of the two supplied steel plates:
1) Assemble the limit-switchby centring theplate with respect to
threaded pins of the support (Fig. 42).
2) Check if the operator is in manual operating mode (see
chapter8).
3) Manually move thegateto opening position,allowing2 - 5 cm
from the mechanical stop limit.
4) Allow the plate to move on the rack in opening direction until
the relevant LED goes OFF (Figs. 22 and 42); next, move the
plateforwardby about another 45 mm and secure it to the rack
bytightening the screws.
5) Manually move the gate to closing position, allowing 2 - 5 cm
from the mechanical stop limit.
6) Allow the plate tomoveontherackin closing direction until the
relevant LED goes OFF (Figs. 22 and 42); next, move the plate
forward by about another 45 mm and secure it to the rack by
tightening the screws.
Attention: due to the powerful magnetic fields the supplied
magnets produce, the magnets can damage magnetic band
components (credit cards, magnetic tapes, floppy disks, etc)
and electronic and mechanical equipment (e.g. watches, LCD
screens). We advise you not to bring them near to objects that
could be damaged if 'immersed' in a magnetic field.
Notes on magnet positioning
• To ensure correct operation, allow at least 2 cm from the
mechanical stop limit in the gate stop position. Carry out this
check after determining the values of the pre- and post-limit
switchdecelerations (see par. 5.5.2.) andafter running atleast
one complete cycle of the automated system.
• The distance between the limit-switch and magnets must be
from 5 to 12 mm.
• Magnets should be fitted on the rack and not on the fixing
screws.
If necessary, position the magnet at the side of the screw
and adjust decelerations (parag. 5.5.2) in order to obtain
the correct stop point.

7. FINAL OPERATIONS
At end of installation, apply the danger sticker on the top of
the cover (Fig. 45).
6.7. CHECK OF STOP POINTS
Take care over the setting of the post-limit-switch deceleration
and braking: If deceleration is too long and braking is insufficient,
the reference fitted on the gate's rack (magnet or steel plate)
can overtake the sensor until the latter is disengaged. When
the gate stops, check if only the limit-switch involved is engaged.
The relevant LED must be OFF - if it went OFF and then ON
again, or if both the limit-switch LEDS are OFF, you must reduce
the post-limit-switch deceleration value and/or increase
braking value (see par.5.5.2).
6.8. SAFETY DEVICES AND ACCESSORIES CHECK
Check correct operation of all the safety and anti-crushing
devices (ENCODER sensor), and of the accessories used on the
system.
Snap-fit the side panels, fit the equipment's cover and fit the
cover with the supplied screws (Fig. 46).
Remove the vent stop screw (fig. 47).
Hand the "User's Guide" to the Customer, explain correct
operation and use of the gearmotor, and indicate the
potentially dangerous areas of the automated system.
Notes on plate positioning
• To ensure correct operation, allow at least 2 cm from the
mechanical stop limit in the gate stop position. Carry out this
check after determining the values of the pre- and post-limit
switchdecelerations (see par. 5.5.2.) andafter running atleast
one complete cycle of the automated system.
• Thedistance between the limit-switchandthe plates must be<
5mm.
• Fornylon racks, use the plateonly (without support),securing it
directlytothe rack by theself-tappingscrews. Make theabove
mentionedadjustments.
Note : a steel core is situated 5 mm under the surface of the
nylon rack. Therefore, drill until you reach the steel core and
screwwith the self-tappingscrews.
6.5. CHECK OF MOTOR CONNECTION

12.MAINTENANCE
Check the operational efficiency of the system at least once
every 6 months, especially as regards the efficiency of the
safety and release devices (including operator thrust force).
12.2. OIL TOP-UPS
Periodically check oil level inside the operator.
Aonce-a-year check is enough formedium or low use frequency.
For heavier duty, every 6 months is recommended.
To access the tank, temporarily remove the oil filling plug (Fig.
52).
Oillevel (visually checked) mustbein line withthecopper windings
of the electric motor.
To top up, pour in oil up to the required level.
Use FAAC XD 220 oil only.

AUTOMATEDSYSTEM746
Readthe instructionscarefully before using the productand keep
them for future consultation.
GENERALSAFETY REGULATIONS
If installed and used correctly, the 746 automated system will
ensure a high degree of safety.
Some simple rules regarding behaviour will avoid any accidental
trouble:
- Do not stand near the automated system and do not allow
childrenandotherpeople or things to stand there, especially while
it is operating.
- Keep radiocontrols or any other pulse generator well away from
childrento prevent theautomated system frombeing activated
involuntarily.
- Do not allow children to play with the automated system.
- Donot willingly obstructgate movement.
- Prevent any branches or shrubs from interfering with gate
movement.
- Keep illuminated signalling systems efficient and clearly visible.
- Do not attempt to activate the gate by hand unless you have
released it.
- Intheeventof malfunctions, release the gate toallowaccessand
wait for qualified technical personnel to do the necessary work.
- After enabling manual operating mode, switch off the power

contactFAAC qualified personnel only.
- Call in qualified personnel at least every 6 months to check the
efficiency of the automated system, safety devices and earth
connection.
DESCRIPTION
The 746 automated system is ideal for controlling vehicle access
areas of medium transit frequency.
The746 automated systemforslidinggatesisan electro-mechanical
operatortransmitting motion to the sliding gate via arack or chain
pinionappropriately coupled tothe gate.
Operationof the sliding gate iscontrolled by anelectronic control
equipmenthoused inside the operator.
When, with the gate closed, the equipment receives an opening
command by radiocontrol or from another suitable device, it
activates the motor until the opening position is reached.
If automatic operating mode was set, the gate re-closes
automatically after the selected pause time has elapsed.
If the semi-automatic mode was set, a second pulse must be sent
to close the door again.
An opening pulse during re-closing, always causes movement to
bereversed.
A stop pulse (if supplied) always stops movement.
For details on sliding gate behaviour in different function logics,
consultthe installation technician.
The automated systems include accessories and safety devices
(photocells,edges) that prevent thegate from closingwhenthere
is an obstacle in the area they protect.
The system ensures mechanical locking when the motor is not
operating and, therefore, no lock needs to be installed.
Manual opening is, therefore, only possible by using the release
system.
Thegearmotor is equippedwith an adjustable mechanicalclutch
which, combined with an electronic device, offers the necessary
anti-crushingsafety, by guaranteeingreversal of closing motionor
stoppingof openingmotion.
A sensor detects transit of the references fitted on the rack, which
correspond to the travel limit positions.
The electronic control equipment is housed in the gearmotor.
Ahandy manualrelease makes it possible tomove the gate in the
event of a power cut or malfunction.
Thewarning-light indicates that the gateis currently moving.
MANUALOPERATION
If the gate has to be operated manually due to a power cut or
malfunction of the automated system, use the release device as
follows:
1) Open the protection doorandfitthe supplied key in thelockas
shown in Fig. 1.
2) Turn the key clockwise andpull the releaselever asshown inFig.
2.
3) Open and close the gate manually.
RESTORINGNORMAL OPERATION
