In order to make the use of these instructions as simple as possible, we
have tried to follow the same order as the various phases of installation.
Anything which is not specified in these instructions is not allowed, any
unspecified use may damage the product and place people and objects
in danger.
Nice disclaims any liability for the non-observance of good practice in the
manufaturing of the gates, as well as any buckling which may occur dur-
ing use. Store this manual safely for future use
This manual, as well as the design and manufacture of the devices that
make up POP, comply fully with the standards and regulations in force
Considering the hazards that may exist during the installation and oper-
ation of POP, it is necessary that also the installation be carried out in
strict compliance with current legislation, standards and regulations, par-
ticularly:
•Before you start with the installation, check whether additional devices
or materials are needed to complete the automation with POP based
on the specific application requirements.
•The automation system must not be used until it has been commis-
sioned as described in paragraph “Commissioning”.
•The packing materials must be disposed of in compliance with local
regulations.
•Do not make modifications to any components unless provided for in
this manual. This type of operations will only cause malfunctions. NICE
disclaims any liability for damage resulting from modified products.
•Do not immerse the automation parts in water or any other liquid. Dur-
ing installation, ensure that liquids do not leak into the control unit or
other open devices.
•In the event that liquid substances have penetrated inside the automa-
tion devices, immediately disconnect the power supply and contact
the NICE customer service department. The use of POP in these con-
ditions can be dangerous.
•Keep all components of POP away from heat sources and open
flames; these could damage the components and cause malfunctions,
fire or dangerous situations.
•During long periods of inactivity, the optional battery should be
removed and stored in a dry location to prevent leakage of noxious
substances.
•Connect the control unit only to a power supply line equipped with
safety grounding system.
•All operations requiring the opening of the shells of POP device must
be performed with the control unit disconnected from the power sup-
ply; if the disconnection device is not identifiable, post the following
sign on it: “WARNING: MAINTENANCE WORK IN PROGRESS”.
•In the event that any automatic switches or fuses are tripped, you must
identify the failure and eliminate it before you reset them.

2.1) Preliminary checks
Do not use POP to automate a gate that is inefficient and unsafe.
The device does not solve faults resulting from incorrect installation
or poor maintenance of the gate.
Make sure that the structure of the gate is suitable for automation
and in compliance with regulations in force.
Make sure that:
•The packing is undamaged and contains all the parts shown in Fig. 1
oNo.1 pc. PP7024
oNo.1 pc. PP7224
oNo.2 pcs. Straight arm
oNo.2 pcs. curved arm
oNo.2 pcs. Motor bracket
oNo.1 pc. Box of accessories.
oNo.1 pc. Electronic “Openkit” box
•The gate opens and closes without presenting points of friction.
•The gate is well balanced, i.e., if it is stopped in any position it must
not display a tendency to start moving again.
•The area singled out for mounting the gearmotor allows easy, safe
manoeuvring.
•Make sure that the mounting area is compatible with the overall
dimensions of the gearmotor (Fig. 2).
•Make sure that the mounting positions of the various devices are
protected from impacts and that the mounting surfaces are suffi-
ciently sturdy.
•Make sure that the mounting surfaces of the photocells are flat and
that they enable the proper alignment between TX and RX.
•Check that there is enough space for the arm to rotate (Fig. 3).

These are the most important operations, designed to guarantee the
maximum safety of the automation system. The testing procedure
can also be used as a periodic check of the devices that make up
the automation. The testing of the automation system must be per-
formed by qualified and experienced personnel who must establish
what tests should be conducted based on the risk involved, and ver-
ify the compliance of the system with applicable regulations, legisla-
tion and standards, in particular with all the provisions of EN stan-
dard 12445 which establishes the test methods for gate automation
systems.
4) Testing and commissioning
The maintenance operations must be performed in strict compliance
with the safety directions provided in this manual and according to
the applicable legislation and standards. POP does not require any
special maintenance. However, periodically make sure (at least once
every six months) that all the devices are perfectly efficient.
To this end, carry out all the tests and checks described in para-
graph 4.1 “Testing”. If other devices are present, follow the directions
provided in the corresponding maintenance schedule.
5) Maintenance
5.1) Disposal
POP is constructed of various types of materials, some of which can
be recycled (aluminium, plastic, electric cables), while others must
be disposed of (electronic boards).
WARNING: some electronic components may contain
polluting substances; do not pollute the environment.
Enquire about the recycling or disposal systems available
in compliance with regulations locally in force.
1. Disconnect the automation system from the electric mains.
2. Disassemble all the devices and accessories, following in reverse
order the procedures described in chapter 2 “Installation”.
3. Remove the electronic board.
4. Sort the various electrical and recyclable materials and consign
them to licensed firms for recovery and disposal.
5. Consign the remaining materials to authorized scrap collection
centres.
!
4.1) Testing
1. Make sure that the provisions contained in the chapter “WARN-
INGS” have been carefully observed.
2. Test the opening and closing of the gate and make sure that the
leaves move in the intended direction. The test should be carried
out a number of times to make sure that the gate moves smooth-
ly, that there are no points of excessive friction and that there are
no defects in the assembly or adjustments.
3. Check the proper operation of all the safety devices, one by one.
4. Measure the impact force according to EN standard 12445.
If “motor force” control is used to assist the system for the reduc-
tion of the impact force, try to find the adjustment that gives the
best results.

Instructions and warnings for users of the
POP gearmotor
Congratulations for having chosen a Nice product for your automa-
tion system!
Nice S.p.a. produces components for the automation of gates, doors,
rolling gates, roller shutters and awnings: gearmotors, control units,
radio controls, flashing lights, photocells and miscellaneous accessories.
Nice uses only the finest materials and first-class workmanship. It focu-
ses on the development of innovative solutions designed to simplify the
use of its equipment, dedicating meticulous care to the study of its tech-
nical, aesthetic and ergonomic characteristics. From the wide range of
Nice products, your installation technician will certainly have selected the
one best suited to your specific requirements.
However, Nice is not the producer of your automation system, which is
rather the result of a combination of operations carried out by your instal-
lation technician, namely analysis, evaluation, selection of materials and
system implementation. Each automation system is unique. Your instal-
lation technician is the only person who possesses the experience and
professionalism needed to set up a system capable of satisfying your
requirements, a system that is safe, reliable, long lasting and built in
accordance with the regulations in force.
An automation system is not only very convenient; it also improves the
level of security in your home. Moreover, it will last for years with very litt-
le maintenance. Even though the automation system you possess meets
the safety requirements of the legislation in force, this does not exclude
the existence of a “residual risk”, i.e. the possibility that dangers may ari-
se, usually as a result of improper or unreasonable use. We have prepa-
red the following list of do’s and don’ts to help you avoid any mishaps:
•Before using your automation system for the first time, ask
the installer to explain the origin of any residual risks; take a few minu-
tes and read the users instructions manual given you by the
installer. Retain the manual for future use and deliver it to any subse-
quent owner of the automation system.
•Your automation system is a machine that will faithfully
execute your commands; unreasonable or improper use may
generate dangers: do not operate the system if there are people, ani-
mals or objects within its range of operation.
•Children: automation systems are designed to guarantee high levels
of safety and security. They are equipped with detection devices that
prevent movement if people or objects are in the way, guaranteeing
safe and reliable activation. However, children should not be allowed

Releasing the gearmotor from
the inside
1. Lift the cover.
2. Insert the release key supplied and turn it
clockwise until it stops.
Releasing the gearmotor from the
outside (optional)
•Remove the plastic cover (1)
•Screw the pin (3) onto the release shaft (2)
•Screw the cable stretcher (4) into the special
hole (5)
•Secure the spring (6) to the pin (3) and to the
fastening point in the shell.
•Slide the release cable (7) into the pin hole (3)
and cable stretcher (4)
•Replace the plastic cover (1) to its original
position.
to play in the vicinity of automated systems; to prevent any accidental
activations, keep all remote controls away from children: they are
not toys!
•Malfunctions: If you notice that your automation is not functioning
properly, disconnect the power supply to the system and operate the
manual release device. Do not attempt to make any repairs; call the
installation technician and, in the meantime, operate the system like a
non-automatic gate after releasing the gearmotor as described below.
•Maintenance: Like any machine, your automation needs regular
periodic maintenance to ensure its long life and total safety. Arrange a
periodic maintenance schedule with your installation technician. Nice
recommends that maintenance checks be carried out every six
months for normal domestic use, but this interval may vary depending
on the intensity of use. Only qualified personnel are authorized to carry
out checks, maintenance operations and repairs.
•Do not modify the system or its programming and adjustment para-
meters in any way, even if you feel capable of doing it: your installation
technician is responsible for the system.
•The final test, the periodic maintenance operations and any repairs
must be documented by the person who has performed them; these
documents must remain under the custody of the owner of the
system.
•Disposal. At the end of its useful life, the automation must be dis-
mantled by qualified personnel, and the materials must be recycled or
disposed of in compliance with the legislation locally in force..
•In the event of malfunctions or power failures. While you are
waiting for the technician to come (or for the power to be restored if
your system is not equipped with buffer batteries), you can operate
the system like any non-automatic gate. In order to do this you need
to manually release the gearmotor: this operation, which is the only
one that the user of the automation is authorized to perform, has been
carefully designed by Nice to make it extremely easy, without any need
for tools or physical exertion.

Important: if your system is equipped with a radio control that, after a
period of time, seems not to work as well, or not to work at all, it may
simply be that the battery is exhausted (depending on the type of bat-
tery, it may last from several months up to two or three years). In this
case you will see that the light confirming the transmission is weak, or
does not come on, or comes on only briefly. Before calling the installa-
tion technician try exchanging the battery with one from another operat-
ing transmitter: if the problem is caused by a low battery, just replace it
with another of the same type.
Are you satisfied? If you wish to install another automation system in
your home, call your old installation technician and use Nice products.
You will get the services of a specialist and the most advanced products
available on the market, superior performances and maximum system
compatibility.
Thank you for reading these instructions. We feel confident that you will
be well satisfied with your new system. For any present or future require-
ments, please contact your reliable installation technician.

GB
The POA1 control unit operates on the basis of a current sensitivity
system which checks the load of the motors connected up to it. The
system automatically detects travel stops, memorises the running
time of each motor and recognises obstacles during normal move-
ment (anti-crush safety feature).
This feature makes installation easier as there is no need to adjust
the working times nor the leaf delay.
The control unit is pre-programmed for the normal functions, while
more specific functions can be chosen following a simple procedure.
The most important components of the POA1 control unit have been
shown in Fig.1 in order to facilitate part identification.

2.2) Preliminary checks
Before starting any kind of work, ensure that all the material is suit-
able for installation and complies with legal requirements. As well as
checking all the points listed in the “Warnings for fitters” file, this sec-
tion also contains a specific check list for the POA1 control unit.
• The “mechanical stops” must both be able to stop the gate from
moving and easily absorb all the kinetic energy accumulated dur-
ing movement (if necessary, use the stops for POP motors).
• The power supply line must be protected by magneto-thermal and
differential switches and equipped with a disconnection device.
There must be over 3mm between the contacts.
• Power the control unit using a 3 x 1.5mm2cable. Install an earth
plate near the control unit if the distance between the control unit
and the earth connection is over 30m.
• Use wires with a minimum cross section of 0.25mm2to connect
extra-low voltage safety circuits.
• Use shielded wire if the length is over 30m and only connect the
earth braid on the control unit side. The cross-section of the con-
nection cable for the motor must be at least 1.5mm2.
• Do not connect cables in buried boxes even if they are complete-
ly watertight.
2.3) Electrical connections
Unplug the unit from all sources of electricity in order
to ensure the fitter is protected and to prevent compo-
nents being damaged during electrical or radio receiver
connection.
• With the exception of the photocell inputs when the PHOTOTEST
function is activated, if the inputs of the NC (Normally Closed) con-
tacts are not in use they should be jumped with the “COMMON”
terminal. Refer to paragraph 2.3.6 for further information.
• If there is more than one NC contact on the same input, they must
be connected in SERIES.
• If the inputs of the NO (Normally Open) contacts are not used they
should be left free.
• If there is more than one NO contact on the same input, they must
be connected in PARALLEL.
• The contacts must be mechanical and potential-free. Stage con-
nections, such as those defined as "PNP", "NPN", "Open Collec-
tor", etc. are not allowed.
• If the leafs overlap, use jumper E (Figure 1) to select which motor
starts up first during opening. M1 has an incorporated control unit,
M2 does not.

2.3.2) Description of connections
Here follows a brief description of the possible control unit output connections:
Terminals Function Description
L-N- Power supply line mains power supply
1÷3 Motor 2 * M2 motor connection
4÷5 Flashing light Connection of flashing light 24Vd.c. max. 25W
6÷7 Open Gate indicator/Elect.Lock Connection for Open Gate Indicator 24Vac max. 5W or Electric lock
12V max. 25VA please refer to the “Programming” chapter)
8 24Vdc/Phototest Power Supply +24V TX photocells for phototest (max. 100mA)
9 0Vdc 0V Power supply for services
10 24Vdc Power input for services, RX photocells, etc. (24Vac max. 200mA)
11 Common Common for all inputs (+24Vdc)
12 STOP **Input with STOP function (emergency, safety shutdown)
13 PHOTO NC Input for safety devices (photocells, sensitive edges)
14 PHOTO1 Input NC for safety devices (photocells, sensitive edges)
15 STEP-BY-STEP Input for cyclical functioning (OPEN-STOP-CLOSE-STOP)
16 AUX *** Auxiliary input
17÷18 Aerial Connection for the radio receiver aerial
* This is not used for single leaf gates (the control unit automatically recognises if only one motor has been installed).
** The STOP input can be used for “NC” or constant resistance 8,2kΩcontacts (please refer to the “Programming” chapter)
*** The auxiliary input AUX may be programmed in one of the following functions:
Function Input type Description
PARTIAL OPEN TYPE 1 NO Fully opens the upper leaf
PARTIAL OPEN TYPE 2 NO Opens the two leaf half way
OPEN NO Only carries out the opening manoeuvre
CLOSE NO Only carries out the closing manoeuvre
PHOTO 2 NC PHOTO 2 function
DISABLED - - No function
Unless otherwise programmed, the AUX input performs the Partial Open TYPE 1 function
Most connections are extremely simple and many of them are direct
connections to a single user point or contact.
The following figures show examples of how to connect external
devices.

Connection for Gate Open Indicator/Electric lock
If the gate open indicator has been programmed, the output can be
used as an open gate indicator light. It flashes slowly during open-
ing, and quickly during closing. If it is on but does not flash, this indi-
cates that the gate is open. If the light is off, the gate is closed. If the
electric lock has been programmed, the output can be used as an
electric lock. The electric lock will activate for 3 seconds each time
opening begins.

The POA1 control unit can be programmed for two types of STOP
input:
- NC type STOP for connecting up to NC type contacts
- Constant resistance STOP: it enables the user to connect up to the
control unit of devices with 8.2kΩconstant resistance (e.g. sensi-
tive edges). The input measures the value of the resistance and
disables the manoeuvre when the resistance is outside the nomi-
nal value. Devices with normally open “NO” or normally closed
“NC” contacts, or multiple devices, even of different types, can be
connected to the constant resistance STOP input, provided that
appropriate adjustments are made. For this purpose, refer to the
following the table:
Note 1. Any number of NO devices can be connected to each oth-
er in parallel, with an 8.2KΩtermination resistance (Figure 4).
Note 2. The NO and NC combination can be obtained by placing
the two contacts in parallel, and placing an 8.2KΩresistance in
series with the NC contact. It is, therefore, possible to combine 3
devices: NO, NC and 8.2KΩ).(Figure 5)
Note 3. Any number of NC devices can be connected in series to
each other and to an 8.2KΩresistance (Figure 6).
Note 4. Only one device with an 8.2KΩconstant resistance output
can be connected; multiple devices must be connected “in cascade”
with a single 8.2KΩtermination resistance (Figure 7)
If the constant resistance STOP input is used to con-
nect devices with safety functions, only the devices with
8.2KΩconstant will resistance output guarantee the fail-
safe category 3.
