The structure condition directly influences the reli-
ability and safety of the automation system.
Check the following roller shutter requirements:
• Sturdy roller shutter structure, in a good state of
preservation.
• Pivot pins and moving elements in good condition.
• Smooth and friction-free movement for the entire
stroke.
• Proper balancing: the unlocked roller shutter must
not tend to open and close by itself.
Carry out metalwork before the installation.
Clean the roller shutter shaft before
taking measurements.
1. Assemble the operator (Fig. 5 steps 1-5).
2. If the shaft diameter is 42 or 48 mm, mount
reductions (Fig. 6).
3. Recover the flange play by tightening screws
andlocknutsWITHCAUTION(Fig.5ref.).
4. Drill through-hole and assemble fixing screw
(Fig. 7).
5. Assemble roller bearing and crown, and fasten
the parts (Fig. 8 steps 3-5).
The roller bearing closing on the flange
is final. Any opening attempt may result
in coupling breaking, thus impairing
functionality.
6. For winding pulleys with a 220 mm diameter,
mount the adapters on the crown (Fig. 9).
7. Drill the roller shutter in line with the hole on the
drive crown gear, and secure it with the screw
and washer provided (Fig. 10 steps 1-3).
Assemble the operator placing the electric motor on
the shaft right side.
• For installation dimensions see Fig. 4.
• For roller shutters larger than 4.5 m with two
operators see Fig.23.

Operators R180N / R280N can be controlled with 200
BT and 200 MPS devices.
The electric brake allows you to lock the roller shut-
ter in any position. By locking the motor shaft, the
electric brake prevents manual handling or loss of
position as a result of the compensating springs be-
ing imbalanced.
1. Assemble the electric brake (Fig. 19).
2. Couple the electric brake on the motor shaft
(Fig. 20 ref. ).
Avoid excessive curves of the sheath
that would prevent the cable from slid-
ing in its interior.
3. Remove the limit switch casing.
4. Connect the electric brake (Fig. 13).
5. Reposition the limit switch casing.
6. Run the electric brake cable into the hole previ-
ously drilled on the shaft (Fig. 21).
7. Assemble the release knob (Fig. 22). The
controller (Fig. 22 ref. ) must be fully screwed.
8. Pull the cable and firmly tighten the clamp (Fig.
22 ref. ).
6.1 RELEASE OPERATION

4. After the adjustments fully lower the roller shut-
ter and secure the limit switch housing, paying
attention not to crush the cables.
5. Close the front casing (Fig. 18) only after the
limit switch adjustment in order to maintain the
positions acquired.
To change/fine-tune the opening
and closing positions set with the previously described
procedure:
1. Move the roller shutter to its fully closed position
in order to have full access to the limit switch unit.
2. Rotate the limit switch ring-nuts clockwise or
counterclockwise in order to delay or bring
forward the actuation of the opening or closing
microswitches (Fig. 17).
3. Make some assessment movements and if
necessary repeat the process until stopping in
the desired positions.
For roller shutters larger than 4.5 metres, it is recom-
mended to install two operators R180N or R280N.
Install the operators in the positions shown (Fig. 23)
following the instructions of Chap. 2.4 and Chap. 3.
In the event of a power failure, the electric brake must
be first unlocked to manually lift the roller shutter.
• For the unlocking mechanism to be actuated,
retain the upper part of the knob and rotate
clockwise the lower part.
• To relock the gear motor, retain the upper part
of the knob and rotate counterclockwise the
lower part.

Before operating the automation, it is
necessary to perform the procedure for
adjusting the roller shutter stop posi-
tions.
The automation enables the automatic positioning
of limit switches with a single operation (opening
and closing).
The limit switch unit comes with pre-
positioned limit switches.
Do not act in any way on the limit
switches before carrying out the ad-
justment operation.
Make sure the electric brake is released (Chap.
6.1) or not installed and proceed with the following
procedure:
1. Lift the roller shutter manually and open it com-
pletely (desired height).
If the roller shutter cannot be lifted
manually, disconnect the power and
move the opening microswitch connec-
tion (Fig. 15 ref. ) as shown in Fig.
16 ref. . Reconnect the power and
control the roller shutter electrically.
2. Fully lower the roller shutter.
In case of electrical command op-
eration, restore the connection of the
opening microswitch as shown in
Fig. 16 ref. after disconnecting the
power.
3. At the end of the procedure, perform some
movements to assess the opening and closing
stop positions. If necessary, change the limit
