4.5 Balancing the barrier
WARNING: This procedure must be carried out as the barrier is
not internally balanced. The beam is balanced when, operating
manually (ref. paragraph 6) the beam remains stationary in the
45° position.
To balance the barrier, proceed as follows:
• Installthebarand all related accessoriesonthebarrier structure,
as required by the final configuration of the system.
• Ensure that the operator is released: see paragraph 6.
• Manually move the bar to the 45° position and verify it remains
stationary. If the bar tends to open, turn the spring preload ring
nut anti-clockwise (Fig. 16 ref. ); if it tends to close, turn the
ring nut clockwise (Fig. 16 ref. ).
5. START-UP
5.1 Connecting the control equipment
WARNING: Before carrying out any work on the control board
(connections, maintenance, etc.) always cut off the electrical
power.
Forallautomaticsystemconnectionsandtesting,refer
to the section dedicated to the electronic equipment,
paragraph 1 on page 6 and following.
5.2 Testing the automated system
Onceinstallationhas been completed,applythe "danger" signsticker
(ref.Fig.29) to the topofthe upright profile. Proceedtoensure correct
operation of the automated system and all the accessories
connected to it.
Give the Customer the “User’s Manual”, the
documentation required by current law and show how
to correctly operate the barrier, pointing out the areas
of potential danger.
6. MANUAL OPERATION
Should manual operation of the barrier be required due to electrical
power cut-offs or automated system inefficiency, use the release
device with the provided key.
The provided unlocking key is either triangular (Fig. 18 ref. ) or
customised (Fig. 18 ref. optional).
• Insert the unlocking key in the lock and turn the key
anticlockwise until it clicks into place, as shown in Fig. 18
• Open or close the beam manually.
With the bar released, the motor may start for
approximately3seconds. Thisisnormalanddetermined
by the parameter Hold Close / Hold Open
7. RESTORING NORMAL OPERATION
Toavoidanaccidental pulse opening thebarrierduring this operation,
before activating the locking system, cut off all power to the system.
triangular unlocking key (standard):
- turn the key clockwise until it stops and then remove it (Fig. 18
ref. ).
customised unlocking key (optional):
- turn the key clockwise until it stops and then remove it(Fig. 18 ref.
).
8. MAINTENANCE
When performing six-month maintenance, always check the correct
balancing of the system and the correct operation of the safety
devices.
8.1 Topping up the oil
Check the amount of oil in the tank every 6 months.
Thelevelmustbeincludedbetween the two notches ontheinspection
rod.
To top up, unscrew the filler cap (Fig. 12 ref. ) and pour oil up to
the indicated level.
Use only FAAC HP OIL.
8.2 Air bleeding
FAAC products are delivered already bled of any air in the hydraulic
circuit. Maintenance operations, replacing spare parts (e.g.
connection pipes) or careless transport can cause entry of air in the
hydraulic circuit,whichinturncancause operator irregular movement
or reduce its torque. Should beam movement be irregular, release
the air from the hydraulic system following the instructions below:
• Electrically operate the beam:
• When opening is completed, slightly loosen and tighten the
bleeder screw of the piston with the balance spring (Fig. 5
ref. ).
• When closing is completed, slightly loosen and tighten the
bleeder screw of the piston without the balance spring (Fig. 5
ref. ).
If necessary, repeat the operation until regular movement of the
beam is obtained.
Care needs to be taken at this stage as the pistons
contain oil under pressure which could leak out if the
screws are loosened too much.
Ifthe parameters FO and FC inAdvancedConfiguration
have been changed and set to a value lower than
default, during bleeding we recommend setting them
to an equal or greater value, to facilitate air bleeding

ENGLISH
9. REVERSING THE OPENING DIRECTION
The opening direction of the barrier is usually determined at the time
of installation with the installation of the spring guide, the spring and
the preload adjustment ring nut on the piston located on the beam
downward travel side.
Should it be necessary to change the opening direction, proceed as
follows:
• Release the operator, as shown in paragraph 6, and place the
beam in vertical position, then lock the operator again.
• Remove the beam as shown in Fig. 17.
• Remove the device securing the plunging piston to the rocker
arm, as shown in Fig. 13.
• Loosen the pre-load ring nut completely, remove it and then
remove the balancing spring and spring guide, reversing the
order described in paragraph 4.4 and in Fig. 14 regarding the
mechanical installation of the automated system.
• Refit the plunging piston in the correct fixing hole.
• Proceedto remove thefixing screw onthe pistonon the opposite
side.
• Release the automated system, turn the rocker arm 90° and re-
insert, in order, the spring guide, the balancing spring and the
the ring nut in the plunging piston installed on the new closing
side, according to the order described in Fig. 14. Once this is
done, refit the plunging piston on the rocker arm.
• Reinstall the bar following the instructions in Fig. 17.
• Balancethesystemonceagainfollowingtheproceduredescribed
in paragraphs 4.5 and 4.6.
• Lock the operator once again following the instructions in
paragraph 7
• Reverse the motor cable connection as shown in point 
of Fig. 14
10. ACCESSORIES
10.1 Installing a photocell

5.3 BUS accessories menu
The E680 board is designed to connect up to 8 pairs of BUS
photocells. For the bus devices connected to the E680 board to be
detected and managed by it, they must be stored on the board. To
do this, proceed as follows:
• cut off power from the board.
• install and program the accessories using the desired address,
depending on the function you wish to use (as described in
paragraph 4.1.2)
• power up the board.
• access Basic Configuration, as described in paragraph 5.1
• once programming step
bu is reached, no, will be displayed,
indicating that here are no stored bus devices.
• to perform entry, simultaneously press and hold the + and -
buttons for at least 5 seconds (during this time, the writing no
will flash)
• oncethe procedure iscompleted, Y will appear as confirmation.
• when + and - are released, the display will show the current
statusof the BUSdevices, or no again, ifthere are noconnected
BUS devices.
Thefollowing image (Fig.3) shows thecorrespondence of thevarious
display segments to the different types of BUS devices that can be
connected to the system:
FSW CL: BUS photocells placed to protect the gate
closing area
OPEN: BUS photocells used as OPEN pulse generators
From the display of the status of the BUS devices, pressing the + key
enables the types of BUS devices present to be verified.
For example, the following photograph shows safety devices present
during closing and a pair of photocells functioning as open pulse:
Fortheautomatedsystem to operatecorrectly,the status
of the segments of the left-hand digit must correspond
to the automated system at rest and without pulse
generators or or safeties engaged.
When the CLOSE photocells are engaged, the bottom
segments will go on, as shown in the image to the side.
If the pair of OPEN pulse generator photocells is
engaged, the display will show the configuration of
segments shown in the image on the side of the page,
in which the corresponding vertical segment is on, and
will remain like this until the photocells are disengaged.
If involved, the pair of OPEN pulse generator photocells
commands opening of the automated system and
prevents it from closing until it is disengaged, like a
normal OPEN pulse received through terminal board
J1 (terminal 3).
The BUS communication system uses a self-diagnostic function able
to provide connection error signals or BUS accessories configuration
error signal.
The display will show a flashing cc if there is a
short circuit along the BUS line, as shown in the
figure. To solve the problem it is necessary to
carefully verify all the connections made.
The display will show a flashing Er as shown
in the image on the side of the page, should
more than one pair of photocells have the
same adress and in case of a calling or failsafe
error. Ensure that the settings are correct, with
reference to the indications given in paragraph
4.1.2
The status of the BUS and related input signals can also be seen by
analysing the two LEDs DL1 (red) and DL2 (green), which make it
possible to immediately verify if BUS communication is active or if
there is an error, and if there are any active inputs or not. The status

6.1 Configuring the loop detector
The E680 board features an integrated metal mass detector for the
induction detection of vehicles.
6.1.1 Specifications:
• Galvanic separation between the detector electronics and the
loop electronics
• Automatic alignment of the system immediately following
activation
• Continuous resetting of the frequency drifts
• Sensitivity independent of loop inductivity
• Adjustment of the loop work frequency with automatic selection
• Occupied loop message with LED display
• Loop status addressable on outputs
6.1.2 Connection:
Connect the loops according to the layout on page 7, Fig. 2
- Terminals 24 - 25 for LOOP 1 = loop with gate opening function;
- Terminals 26 - 27 for LOOP 2 = loop with closing and/or safety
when closing function.
Formoreinformationontheeffectoftheloopsignalsontheautomated
system, refer to the logics tables in paragraph 10 “OPERATING
LOGICS TABLE”.
To enable the functionality of the connected loops, enter Basic
configuration mode and set parameters L1 and L2 on Yconsistently
with the number and type of connected loops. If only one loop is
installed, enable only the corresponding programming step.
The loop detector operating status is indicated by the DL3 and DL4
status LEDs.

6.1.3 Calibration
Each time the E680 board is powered, the integrated loop detector
performs a calibration of the connected loops. Therefore, you can
perform calibration by cutting off power to the board for at least 10
seconds and then reconnecting it.
Fromthebarrier status display,you can press,atany time, SW4/CAL1
to calibrate the loop connected to the LOOP 1 input or SW5/CAL2 to
calibrate the loop connected to the LOOP2 input.
Calibration is highlighted by the board diagnostics by flashing LEDs
DL3 and DL4, and when calibration is completed, they will indicate
the loop detection status, if connected.
The other signals provided by the board diagnostics are described
in the following table:
DL3
DL4
LOOP 1
LOOP 2
22 224567
If one or both magnetic loops are not installed, the loop
detector, following a first attempt to calibrate, will keep
the status LEDs flashing every 5 seconds (as shown in
the above table)
LED Status LOOP Status
Off Loop clear
On Loop engaged
Flashing (0.5 s) Loop calibration
in progress
Rapid flashing Loop short circuit
Slow flashing
(5 s) No loop or loop interrupted
Two flashes (every 5 s) Non-conforming loop
(heater or inductance
out of range)
6.1.4 Adjusting sensitivity
By adjusting the sensitivity of the loop detector, you determine the
variation of inductivity, for each channel, that a vehicle must cause in
order to activate the corresponding detector output.
Sensitivity is adjusted separately for each channel using the two
parameters S1 and S2 in Basic configuration
6.1.5 Making the loops
The loop must be laid at least 15 cm from fixed metal objects, at least
50 cm from moving metal objects and no more than 5 cm from the
surface of the final paving.
Use a standard unipolar cable measuring 1.5 mm² in diameter (if
the cable is laid below ground level directly, it must have double
insulation).Makea preferably squareor rectangular loopby preparing
a PVC cable duct or by tracing the paving, as shown in figure 16 (the
corners must be cut at a 45° angle to avoid cable breaks). Lay the
cable using the number of windings shown in the table. The two ends
of the cable must be twisted together (at least 20 times per metre)
from the loop to the E680 board.Avoid splicing a cable (if necessary,
weldtheconductors and seal thespliceusing a heat-shrinkingsheath)
and keep it separate from the mains power lines.

HOLD CLOSE / HOLD OPEN function
When this function is activated, the automated system will monitor the position of the beam
at set intervals (see parameter
A1 ). If the beam is not completely closed or completely open
(depending on the logical condition of the board), the automated system will command a
CLOSE or OPEN movement to bring the beam back to the correct position, for a maximum
of 3 seconds. If, when the 3 seconds have elapsed, the bar does not go back to completely
closed/open position (e.g. because the bar is blocked), the function will be disabled until the
next OPEN command is received.

7. START-UP
7.1 Verifying the diagnostic LEDs
Before starting up the board, it is necessary to verify that the status
of the diagnostic LEDs corresponds to the logic. Said status must
coincide with the indications in Fig. 4, situation which reflects that of
an automated system that is CLOSED and ready to open.
TheFSW,STOPandALARM LEDs aresafetyinputs with
NC contacts, therefore the related LEDs must be ON
when the automated system is at rest, and go off when
the device connected is engaged.
The OPEN and CLOSE inputs are NO contact inputs,
therefore the related LEDs must be OFF when the
automated system is at rest, and go on when the device
connected is active.
TheBUSstatusmustcorrespondtoDL2(green)onfixed
and DL1 (red) off. The BUS menu of the
Basic configuration must display the
indicationshowntothesideconfirming
the fact that there are no engaged
photocells or active pulse generators.
7.2 Setup
Before being put into operation, the E680 board requires a setup
procedureduringwhichthe automated systemdeterminestherotation
angle of the beam and consequently its travel. These measurements
allow correct management of motor decelerations and acceleration
ramps.
Atfirst start-up theboardwill signal theneedfor a setup
cycle, by displaying a flashing S0.
For setup, proceed as follows:
1. Usingthe parameter “Mt”inBasic configuration mode,check that
theopening /closing movementcorresponds tothe pressedkey
(+/-);ifnot,go to the motor wiringandreversethetwoconductors
L1 and L3, as shown in Fig. 14, Ref. 
2. Bring the automation system to the fully closed position with the
“Mt” parameter of the Base configuration level or by operating
the release device as indicated in sections 6 and 7 on page 4.
3. Access Base programming and repeatedly press the Fbutton
until you reach the parameter tL, then press the +and -buttons
at the same time until the automation system begins opening
slowly.
During setup, a flashing -- indication will appear on the
display.
4. On reaching the fully open position, the automation system will
stop automatically.
5. The automation system will then begin the beam closing
movement.
6. On reaching the closed position, the automation system will
stop automatically.
7. Press the Fbutton to exit the procedure, and confirm you wish
to save the data with the parameter St. Check that the status
of the automation system shown on the display is 00 (closed)
and that the rod is in the closed position. If the rod is open and
the display is showing 00, check / adjust the correct direction
of movement of the motor again as in step 1 of the procedure.
8. TESTING THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM
Onceprogramming is completed, ensure that the systemis operating
correctly.
Verifyespeciallythe correct regulationofthe automated system power
andcorrectoperation of thesafetydevices it isconnectedto and verify
that the automated system conforms to current safety standards.
