• “Construction Products” Directive:
Special warnings related to 89/106/EEC “Construction Products” Directive
and subsequent modification 98/38/EEC applicable to the product:
- Complete installation of this product, as described in this instruction
manual and for certain types of use (for example excluding exclusive use
for vehicles) may class it in the field of application of the Directive “Con-
struction Products” 89/106/EEC and relative harmonised standard EN
13241-1.
- Paragraph 1.3.1 specifies all installation criteria required to ensure that the
product complies with the essential requirements of the directive 89/106/EEC;
the installer should check and ensure that all these criteria are strictly
observed.
- Failure to observe one or more of these criteria may mean that the SBAR
product may not meet all the essential requirements. Use of the product in
these situations is strictly prohibited until all the directive require-
ments are met; in this case, the label “ES13241-1.4870” applied on the
product must be removed and the “EC declaration of Conformity” in
appendix I of this manual may not be used. As a consequence, the
installer in turn becomes the manufacturer of the “automatic barrier”, and
must therefore observe all requirements of the Directive “Construction
Products” 89/106/EEC and relative harmonised standard EN 13241-1. In
this case SBAR must be considered as a “machine component” and the
“Declaration of conformity” in appendix II may be used (for insertion in the
technical documentation).

- Failure to observe one or more of these criteria during installation or use
may mean that the SBAR product may not meet all the essential require-
ments. Use of the product in these situations is strictly prohibited until
all the directive requirements are met: the “EC declaration of Conformi-
ty” in appendix I of this manual may not be used. As a consequence, the
installer in turn becomes the manufacturer of the “automatic barrier”, and
must therefore observe all requirements of the Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC. The manufacturer must complete a risk assessment, which
also includes the list of essential safety requirements as stated in “appendix I
of the Machinery Directive”, specifying the relative solutions adopted. Note
that the risk assessment is one of the documents that constitutes the au-
tomation “technical documentation”. This must be compiled by a profession-
al installer with the possibility of using the “Declaration of Conformity” in
appendix II to be compiled by the installer of SBAR.
Special warnings regarding suitability of this product in relation to the
“Machinery” Directive 2006/42/EC; to be taken into consideration when the
installer becomes the manufacturer of the product. SBAR is issued onto the
market as a “quasi machine” and therefore constructed for incorporation in
a machine or to be assembled with other machinery to produce a single
“machine” in accordance with the Directive 2006/42/EC only in conjunction
with the other components and in the ways as described in this instruction
manual. As established in directive 2006/42/EC, this product may not be
started up until the manufacturer of the machine, in which this product is
incorporated, has not identified and declared as compliant with the direc-
tive 2006/42/EC.
• “Low Voltage” Directive:
Particular warnings concerning the suitable use of this product in relation to
the 2006/95/EEC “Low Voltage” Directive:
This product meets the requirements of the “Low Voltage” Directive if used
as specified in the configurations as envisaged in this instruction manual
and in combination with the articles listed in the product catalogue of Nice
S.p.a.

tial requirements
This product, if correctly installed, complies with the essential requirements as
envisaged by the European Directive on “Construction Products” 89/106/EEC
according to the provisions of harmonised standard EN 13241-1, as specified
in Table A; and by the European Directive on “Machinery” 2006/42/EC.
Caution! – If SBAR is intended for exclusively vehicle transit, it would be
excluded from the field of application of EN 13241-1; in this case, compliance
with some of the requirements stated in Table A may not be compulsory.
Transit may be considered “exclusively vehicle” when there is an express pro-
hibition for other types (for example pedestrians), such as by using adequate
signs and, if other types are required, there is adequate space in the immedi-
ate vicinity.
• Release of hazardous substances:
The product does not contain and/or release hazardous substances in con-
formity with the provisions of the standard EN 13241-1, point 4.2.9 and ac-
cording to the list of substances stated in the web site of the European Com-
munity *: http:// europa.eu.int/comm/enterprise/construction/internal/dangsub/
dangmain_en.htm
(*) Last update: 17/03/2003
Special warning to guarantee compliance with the requirement – It is
essential that also all other materials used in installation, such as electric cables,
comply with this requirement
• Resistance to wind load:
Table B specifies resistance of the pole supplied to the differential pressure of
the wind. The tests were performed with the pole fitted with the impact protec-
tion profile; other accessories may increase the exposed surface and thus
reduce the resistance to wind load.
• Safe opening for vertically moving doors:
The product does not cause uncontrolled movements or dropping of the pole in
the event of a fault on a single component of the suspension or balancing
(spring) system.
Special warnings to guarantee compliance with the requirements:
- Perform installation in strict observance of all instructions in chapters “3 -
Installation ” and “5 - Testing and Commissioning”
- Ensure that a maintenance schedule is drawn up (for example, by using a
“Maintenance indicator” connected to the FLASH output associated with the
relative function - see Table 7); in which, all instructions in the chapter “Mainte-
nance Schedule” must be strictly followed.
• Mechanical strength and stability of the product:
The product is designed and constructed to ensure that, during normal use, all
forces applied, impact and normal wear will not damage or impair mechanical
performance.
Caution: See specifications for the requirement “Safe opening for vertically
moving doors”.
• Manoeuvring forces for power-operated doors/gates:
The operating forces applied by the pole in relation to the risks of crushing and
impact are protected by means of one of the three following methods:
1For operation with “hold-to-run” controls: as specified in EN 12453:2000,
point 5.1.1.4. In this case the control button must be located in sight of the
automation, and if accessible by the public, the control must not be available
to the latter, for example protected by means of a key-operated selector
switch.
2For “semi-automatic” operating mode: by force limitation as specified in
EN 12453:2000, points 5.1.1.5 and 5.1.3.3.
3For “automatic” operating mode: by force limitation as specified in EN
12453:2000, points 5.1.1.5 and 5.1.3; in this case installation is compulsory
of at least one pair of photocells as shown in fig. 1.
Specific warnings for “semi-automatic” and “automatic” operating
modes: the type tests for checking efficiency of force limitation were performed
with the Force setting at the maximum level (Force = 8) and Speed setting at
the maximum value (Speed = 5 (100%); with the pole assembled as per the
instructions and fitted with the “impact protection profile” above and below the
pole and with the accessory “indicator lights” XBA4 inserted on the upper
impact protection profile.
Special warning to guarantee compliance with the requirement: See spec-
ifications for the requirement “Safe opening for vertically moving doors”.

Example of calculating lifetime of road barrier SBAR (refer to Table 2 and
Graph 1):
SBAR with lights XBA4 (severity index of 15%) - Presence of saline mist (severity
index of 10%): Total severity index = 25%
The estimated durability is approx. 240,000 manoeuvre cycles.
3.3 - Typical system
Fig. 3 shows the components in the product pack:
[a] - road barrier with built-in control unit
[b] - pole support
[c] - pole plug
[d] - 2 pole joining brackets
[e] - metal hardware (screws, washers, etc. keys for manual locking and release
of the pole)
[f] - fixing bolts
[g] - photocell box
[h] - foundation plate
Fig. 1 shows an example of an automation system set up with Nice compo-
nents. With reference to the typical standard layout in fig. 1, locate the approx-
imate position for installation of each component envisaged in the system.
CAUTION! – In general, position the ends of the ducting used for electri-
cal cables in the vicinity of the points envisaged for fixture of the various
components. Note: The ducting serves to protect electric cables and prevent
accidental damage, such as in the case of impact.
The barrier is factory set for the closing manoeuvre to the left; in this
phase, it is important to decide whether the opening direction of the pole is to
be inverted. If Closure to the right is required, see paragraph 3.3.1.
Prepare the electrical cables needed for your system, referring to fig. 1 and
“Table 3 - Technical specifications of electrical cables”.
3.1 - Preliminary checks for installation
Before proceeding with installation, check the condition of the product compo-
nents, suitability of the selected model and conditions of the intended installa-
tion environment.
• Ensure that all material used is in perfect condition and suitable for use.
• Ensure that all product application limits can be observed (see paragraph
3.2).
• Ensure that the selected installation environment is compatible with the over-
all dimensions of the product (fig. 2).
• Ensure that the selected surfaces for barrier installation are solid and guaran-
tee a stable fixture.
• Make sure that the fixing zone is not subject to flooding. If necessary, mount
the barrier raised from the ground.
• Ensure that the space around the barrier enables easy and safe completion
of manual manoeuvres.
• Ensure that there are no obstacles along the pole trajectory which prevent the
opening and closing manoeuvres.
• Ensure that each device to be installed is in a sheltered location and protect-
ed against the risk of accidental impact.
3.2 - Product application limit
Before installing the product, ensure that all values specified in the chapter
“Technical product specifications” and maximum cycle frequency as stated in
Table 1 are compatible with the intended use.
– Ensure that the estimated durability (see paragraph 3.2.1) is compatible with
the intended use.
– Ensure that all limits, conditions and warnings in this manual can be
observed.
3.2.1 - Product durability
The lifetime is the average economic duration of the product. The value of life-
time is strongly influenced by the intensity of the manoeuvres, i.e. the sum of all
factors that contribute to product wear (see Table 2).
To estimate the lifetime of your automation, proceed as follows:
01. Add the values of the items in Table 2 regarding the system conditions;
02. In Graph 1 from the value obtained above, trace vertical line until it inter-
sects the curve; from this point trace a horizontal line until it intersects the
line of the “manoeuvre cycles”. The obtained value is the estimated lifetime
of your product.
The lifetime values specified in the graph are only obtainable if the maintenance
schedule is strictly observed (see chapter “Maintenance schedule”). The esti-
mation of lifetime is made on the basis of design calculations and the results of
tests performed on prototypes. As it is only an estimation, it does not represent
any form of guarantee on the effective lifetime of the product.
INSTALLATION

SBAR is an electromechanical road barrier for residential use; it controls open-
ing and closing of a road transit point with widths up to 3 metres.
CAUTION! – Any uses other than those specified herein or in environmen-
tal conditions other than as stated in this manual are to be considered
improper and are strictly prohibited!
SBAR is an electromechanical gearmotor with a 24 V motor, with optional flash-
ing light signal (XBA7) and electric limit switch system. The control unit is set up
for connected to devices belonging to the Nice Opera system and connection
to the solar power system “Solemyo” (see paragraph 4.10.3).
SBAR runs on electric energy and in the event of a power failure the pole can
be released and moved manually. Alternatively the buffer battery model PS124
can be used (optional accessory - see paragraph 4.10.2), which guarantees a
number of automation manoeuvres in the first few hours of power failure. To
prolong this period or extend the number of manoeuvres, the Stand by function
should be enabled (see table 6).
SBAR is also designed for installation of the pole lights, mod. XBA4 (accessory
- see paragraph 4.8).

3.4 - Barrier fixture
3.4.1 - If the support surface already exists
[] The fixing surface must be perfectly smooth and flat. If the surface is in con-
crete, it must be at least 0.15 m thick, and must be adequately reinforced with
steel cages. The concrete volume must be greater than 0.2 m3(a thickness of
0.25 m corresponds to 0.8 m2; in other words equal to a square base of
approx. 0.9 m per side).
Anchoring to the concrete can be by means of 4 expansion bolts, fitted with 12
MA screws, which resist to a traction load of at least 400 Kg. If the fixing sur-
face is in another material, the consistency must be checked and ensure that
the 4 anchoring points can resist a load of at least 1000 Kg. For fixture, use 12
MA screws.
Proceed as follows:
01. Open the barrier cabinet (fig. 4);
02. Place the barrier on the fixing surface and trace the points where the slots
are to be fixed (fig. 9);
03. Move the barrier and drill the traced surface points; then insert 4 expansion
bolts, not supplied (fig. 10);
04. Position the barrier correctly and secure by means of the relative nuts and
washers not supplied (fig. 11 - A, B).
3.4.2 - If the support surface does not exist
01. Dig the foundation pit to house the foundation plate, (optional accessory).
For the pit dimensions, refer to the specifications at point [  ] of paragraph
3.4.1.
02. Prepare ducting for connection cables;
03. On the foundation plate, fix the 4 bolts, placing a nut on the upper side of
each and one on the lower side of the plate. Caution – The lower nut must
be tightened down to the threaded section;
04. Now cast the concrete, and before it sets, embed the foundation plate,
which must be positioned flush with the surface, parallel to the pole and
perfectly level (fig. 12). Wait for the concrete to set completely; in general,
at least 2 weeks;
05. Remove the 4 upper nuts of the bolts;
06. Open the barrier cabinet (fig. 4);
07. Position the barrier correctly and secure by means of the relative nuts and wa-
shers supplied with the foundation plate e moved in point 04 (fig. 13 - A, B).
3.5 - Pole installation
3.5.1 - Pole support assembly
01. Insert the two plugs in the relative seats on the output motor shaft (fig. 14
- phase A and B);
02. Position the support on the output motor shaft, placing it in the “vertical
pole” position and tighten the relative screws and washers fully down to
secure (fig. 15 - phase A and B);
03. Position the pole cover and partially secure by means of the 4 screws sup-
plied (fig. 16 - phase A and B).
3.5.2 - Pole assembly
01. Lightly grease the aluminium guide on both sides (fig. 17).
02. Perform this operation on both ends of the pole: insert the first part of
impact protection rubber in the slot, through to the end of the pole; then
insert the joint for the impact protection rubber (fig. 18) and repeat with all
parts;
03. Position the pole plug (fig. 19):
A) the impact protection must be inserted by at least 1 cm;
B) insert the pole plug and block the plug with the screws provided;
C) push the upper impact protection towards the plug, making it slightly
protrude and block the two impact protection cover plugs;
04. On the opposite end to that with the plug, insert the pole support plates
(fig. 20);
05. Insert the pole assembly in the pole support shell, pushing it up to the end
and then tighten the 4 previously inserted support screws fully down.
3.6 - Manually releasing and locking the gearmotor
The gearmotor can be released manually on both sides of the barrier as
shown in fig. 21:
01. Rotate the key cover;
02. Insert the key supplied and turn through 180° both clockwise and anti-
clockwise;
03. To lock the gearmotor, rotate the key through a further 180° in the same
direction as before.
3.7 - Mechanical stop adjustment
01. Release the gear motor manually (see paragraph 3.6);
02. Manually move the pole through a complete Opening and Closing
manoeuvre;
03. Then adjust the mechanical stop screws (Fig. 22 and 23) to align the pole
vertically and horizontally;
04. Tighten down the nuts.
3.8 - Pole balancing
The pole needs to be balanced to establish the best balance between two fac-
tors: the weight of the pole and any accessories and the counterposed force of
the balancing spring. The latter individually guarantees balancing of the pole; if
this rises or lowers, proceed as described below.
01. Release the gear motor manually (see paragraph 3.6);
02. Manually move the pole to mid-travel (45°) and leave stationary. Then
ensure that the pole remains still in position. If the pole tends to lift, reduce
the tension of the spring, if the pole tends to drop, increase the tension of
the spring. To modify spring tension, see point 04;
03. Repeat point 02 positioning the pole also at approx. 20° and approx.
70°. If the pole remains still in position, this means that balancing is cor-
rect; a slight off balance is admissible, but the pole must never move sig-
nificantly.
The off-balance value is only acceptable when the force required to
move the pole (measured at right angles to the pole and at 1 m from the
rotation axis) on Opening, Closing and in all other positions, does not
exceed half the value of the maximum torque (for this product, approx. 5
Kg at 1 m).
04. - If the pole is not correctly balanced; to balance move the pole to the max-
imum opening position.

•PP = input for devices control movement in Step-Step mode, enabling the
connection of Normally Open contacts.
•OPEN = input for devices which control only opening manoeuvre. NO con-
tacts can be connected to this input.
•CLOSE = input for devices which control only closing manoeuvre. NO con-
tacts can be connected to this input.
•AERIAL = input for connection of the aerial for the radio receiver (the aerial is
incorporated on LUCY B, MBL, MLBT).
IMPORTANT! – NEVER CONNECT DEVICES OTHER THAN THOSE SPE-
CIFIED.
4.2 - Initial start-up and electrical connections
CAUTION! – The final connection of the automation to the electrical
mains must be made exclusively by a qualified skilled technician, in
observance of current local standards.
Connect the control unit to an electric power line equipped with an earthing
system. The power supply line must be protected by suitable magneto-
thermal and differential switches. Envisage a mains disconnect device, with
a contact opening distance that ensures complete disconnection in the
conditions of overvoltage category III, or envisage a plug and socket sys-
tem.
After powering up the control unit, perform the following checks:
• Make sure that the “Bluebus” LED flashes quickly for a few seconds and then
regularly with a frequency of about one flash per second.
• If photocells are present, check that the leds on the latter also flash (both on
TX and RX elements); the type of flash is not significant as this depends on
other factors.
• Check that the device connected to the FLASH output is off (with factory setting).
• Ensure that the light on the control unit is switched off.
If the above conditions are not satisfied, switch off the power supply to the con-
trol unit and check the electrical connections previously made.
For more useful information see also chapter “7 Troubleshooting”.
4.3 - Pre-set functions
The control unit is equipped with a series of programmable functions, which are
factory set with the most commonly used values. These values can be modified
at any time: See chapter 6.
4.4 - Recognition of the connected devices
After the initial power-up, the control unit must be able to recognise the devices
connected on the inputs “Bluebus” and “Stop”.
CAUTION! – The learning phase must be performed even if no device is
connected to the control unit.
To indicate whether this operation is necessary, leds “L1” and “L2” on the con-
trol unit emit a number of flashes.
01. Press and hold down “Open” and “Set” keys at the same time.
02. Release the keys when LEDs L1 and L2 start flashing quickly (after approx.
3 seconds).
03. Wait a few seconds for the control unit to complete the device learning
phase. At the end of this phase, the “Stop” led must be lit and leds “L1”
and “L2” must turn off (leds “L3” and “L4” may start flashing to indicate
that the positions have not be learnt).
This procedure must be repeated in the case of modifications to the devices
connected to the terminals BlueBus and Stop; for example, after connecting a
new device to the control unit.
4.5 - Recognition of limit positions on opening and closing
After learning the connected devices, the control unit also has to learn the
positions of the mechanical stops. In this phase, the pole travel distance is
read, measured from the closing mechanical stop to the opening mechanical
stop.
01. Manually release the gearmotor (see chapter 3.6) and manually position
the pole at approx. 45° (mid-travel);
02. Lock the gear motor (see paragraph 3.6);
CAUTION! – All electrical connections must be made with the unit dis-
connected from the mains power supply.
01. Loosen the screws of the cover (fig. 25);
02. Route the electric cables inside SBAR, starting from the base towards the
control unit and routing them to the left;
03. Connect the wires of the electric power cable to the 3-contact terminal
with fuse and secure the cable with the collar (fig. 26);
04. Connect the other cables as shown in the wiring diagram in fig. 27.
Note – To facilitate cable connections, the terminals can be removed from
their seats.
4.1 - Description of the electrical connections
• FLASH = this output is programmable (see Chapter 6, paragraph 6.2 - Level
2 programming - adjustable parameters) to connect one of the following
devices:
– Flashing light: if programmed as “flashing light” on the “FLASH” out-
put, a NICE flashing light model “LUCY B, MLB or MLBT” with a 12 V 21
W car type lamp. During the manoeuvre it flashes at intervals of 0.5 s lit
and 0.5 s off.
– “pole open indicator” - “activated if the pole is closed” - “activat-
ed if pole is open” - “flashing light for pole lights” and “maintenance
indicator”: if programmed with one of these 5 functions on the “FLASH”
output, a 24 V indicator (max. 10 W) can be connected for the following
signals:
“Pole open indicator” function
Pole closed: Off
Pole opening: Slow flashing light
Pole closing: Quick flash light
Pole open (not closed): lit
“Active if pole closed” function
Pole closed: On
All other cases: Off
“Active if pole open” function
Pole open: On
All other cases: Off
Function “flashing light for pole lights”
The indicator light or pole lights indicate execution of the manoeuvre in
progress by flashing constantly at regular intervals (0.5 sec on; 0.5 sec-
onds off)
Function “Maintenance indicator”
- indicator lit on for 2 seconds at the start of the opening manoeuvre =
number of manoeuvres less than 80%
- flashing light indicator during execution of the entire manoeuvre = num-
ber of manoeuvres between 80 and 100%
- indicator constantly flashing = number of manoeuvres greater than
100%.
– Suction cup: a 24V max 10W suction cup can be connected (versions
with electromagnet only, without electronic devices). When the pole is
closed, the suction cup is activated to lock the pole in place. During the
opening and closing manoeuvre it is deactivated.
– Electric block: a 24 V max 10 W electric block with latch can be con-
nected (versions with electromagnet only, without electronic devices). Dur-
ing the opening manoeuvre, the electric lock is activated and remains
active to free the pole and perform the manoeuvre. In the closing manoeu-
vre ensure that the electric block re-engages mechanically.
– Electric lock: a 24 V max 10 W electric lock with latch can be con-
nected (versions with electromagnet only, without electronic devices).
At the start of the opening manoeuvre, the electric lock is activated for
a short period to release the pole and complete the manoeuvre. In the
closing manoeuvre ensure that the electric lock re-engages mechani-
cally.
•BLUEBUS = this terminal enables the connection of compatible devices; all
are connected in parallel with just two wires conveying the electric power and
communication signals. For further details see Chapter 8.
•STOP = input for devices that block or shut down the manoeuvre in
progress; by setting the input accordingly, it is possible to connect Normally
Closed type contacts, Normally Open contacts, constant resistance or opti-
cal devices. For further details see chapter 8.

6– English
03. Press and hold down “Close” and “Set” keys at the same time.
04. Release the keys when the manoeuvre starts (after approx. 3 seconds);
05. Wait a few seconds for the control unit to complete the position learning
phase: pole closing, opening and closing.
06. Press “Open” for the pole to run a complete Opening manoeuvre.
07. Press “Close” for the pole to run a complete Closing manoeuvre.
During these manoeuvres, the control unit memorises the force required to
complete these manoeuvres.
CAUTION! – The learning phases must never be interrupted. If this occurs,
the entire learning procedure must be repeated.
At the end of the learning phase, if leds “L3” and “L4” flash, this means that
there is an error. The phase for learning the mechanical stops can be repeated
at any time, also after installation (for example, if the position of a mechanical
stop is moved).
IMPORTANT – The deceleration points are calculated automatically by the
control unit; after the position search phase, at least 2 or 3 complete manoeu-
vres must be performed before that control unit can correctly calculate the
points of deceleration.
4.6 - Pole movement check
After learning the devices and completing the 2-3 manoeuvres to calculate
deceleration, a number of Opening and Closing manoeuvres should be per-
formed to ensure correct pole movement.
01. Press “Open” to activate an Opening manoeuvre; ensure that the pole
starts to decelerate before reaching the opening position;
02. Press “Close” to activate a Closing manoeuvre; ensure that the pole starts
to decelerate before reaching the closing position;
03. Make sure that the (optional) LED flashing light flashes at regular intervals
(0.5 sec on, 0.5 sec off) during a manoeuvre.
04. Run a number of Opening and Closing manoeuvres to ensure that there
are no points of increased friction or malfunctions.
CAUTION – If the manoeuvre starts from a position different from that of one of
the mechanical stops (opening or closing), it is performed at low speed.
4.7 - Connecting a radio receiver
The control unit is fitted with a SM type connector for connection of a radio
receiver (optional accessory) model SMXI, SMXIS, OXI or OXIT and similar.
To insert the radio receiver, disconnect the control unit from the power mains
and insert the receiver as shown in fig. 28.
Table 4 shows the actions performed by the control unit according to the out-
puts activated or the commands sent from the radio receiver.
4.8 - Connecting the pole lights (optional accessory)
01. Move the pole to the vertical position;
02. Unscrew the 4 screws that hold the pole cover (fig. 29);
03. Remove the pole temporarily;
04. Insert the grommet in the pre-drilled hole for cable routing (fig. 30 - A,
B);
05. Route the lights cable through the impact protection rubber profile, using a
guide to facilitate attachment if necessary (fig. 31 - A, B);
06. If necessary, shorten the length of the lights cable: cuts may only be made
at the points bearing the relative mark. After cutting, the plug at the cut end
must be moved to seal off the new end;
07. Insert the cable first through the hole on the pole support and then through
the hole on the cabinet (fig. 32 - A, B, C); Caution – Leave a little extra
cable in the pole support, to enable pole rotation through 90° without ten-
sioning the cable;
08. Connect the lights cable to the FLASH terminal on the control unit: see dia-
gram in fig. 27;
09. Position and secure the connector in the slot on the pole (fig. 32 - D);
10. Insert the pole and secure with its cover, tightening the 4 screws fully down
and taking care not to pinch the wiring cable (fig. 33).
4.9 - Connecting the LED flashing light mod. XBA7 or LED
traffic light mod. XBA8 (optional accessories)
On the cover of the barrier a LED flashing light mod. XBA8 may be fitted. The
operating mode of this flashing light may be modified through the Oview pro-
grammer or with suitable programmes of the control unit. For further informa-
tion, refer to the instruction manual for the product.
4.10 - Connection of other devices
SBAR also enables power supply to external devices (a radio receiver or key-
operated selector switch lighting) by receiving power from the control unit: for
the type of connection, see Fig. 34.
The power supply voltage is 24 Vdc, -30%/+50%, with maximum available
current 100 mA.
4.10.1 - Programming unit Oview
The use of the programming unit Oview enables complete and rapid man-
agement of installation, maintenance and troubleshooting of any malfunctions
of the whole automation system. Oview can be connected to SBAR by
means of the BusT4 connector on the control unit.
To access the BusT4 connector, open the cover of SBAR and insert the con-
nector in its seat (fig. 35).
In general, Oview can be positioned at a maximum distance of 100 m of
cable from the control unit; it can be connected to multiple control units
simultaneously (max. 16) and can also remain connected during normal
operation of the automation; to exceed these limits, observe the warnings in
the Oview instruction manual and the Oview System Book system manual. If
a OXI type radio receiver is present in the control unit, Oview enables
access to the parameters of the transmitters memorised in this receiver. For
detailed information, refer to the instruction manual of the Oview program-
mer or the “SBAR” function datasheet also available on the website
www.niceforyou.com.
4.10.2 - Buffer battery mod. PS124 (accessory)
In the event of a mains power failure, SBAR can also be powered by a buffer
battery model PS124. To install and connect the battery, proceed as follows:
Caution! – The electric connection of the battery to the control unit
must only be made after completing all installation and programming
phases, as the battery constitutes an emergency power supply.
01. Connect the relative cable of the buffer battery and position the battery
as shown in fig. 36;
03. Remove the membrane on the control unit (fig. 37);
04. Disconnect the mains power and fit the connector as shown in fig. 38.
4.10.3 - Solemyo System (photovoltaic supply)
SBAR is designed to be powered with the "Solemyo SYKCE" photovoltaic
system. To connect IT to the control unit, use the socket that is normally used
for the buffer battery (see paragraph 4.10.2).
IMPORTANT!
- When SBAR is powered by the “Solemyo” system, it MUST NOT BE
POWERED at the same time from the electrical mains.
- Due to the limited solar power available, depending on the installation
location and time of year, SBAR can perform a maximum number of
manoeuvres per day. Before installing the Solemyo system, check in
the relative instruction manual whether the maximum number of pos-

10 Check efficiency of the release system: place the pole in the Closing
position and manually release the gearmotor (see paragraph 3.6) ensuring
that there is no difficulty with this procedure. Ensure that the manual force
required to move the pole on opening is no greater than 200 N (approx. 20
Kg); the force is measured perpendicular to the pole and at 1 m from the
rotation axis. Lastly, ensure that the key required for manual release is avail-
able in the vicinity of the automation.
11 Power supply disconnection system check: by using the power discon-
nect device, and disconnecting any buffer batteries, ensure that all leds on
the control unit are off and that the pole remains stationary when any com-
mands are sent. Check efficiency of the locking device to prevent inadver-
tent and/or unauthorised reconnection.
5.2 - Commissioning
Commissioning can only be performed after positive results of all test
phases. Partial or “makeshift” commissioning is strictly prohibited.
1Compile and provide the automation owner with the “CE Declaration of
conformity - Appendix I”, at the end of this manual, in the removable sec-
tion.
2Compile and provide the automation owner with the form “Operation
Manual” at the end of this manual, in the removable section.
3Compile the form “Maintenance schedule” containing all maintenance
instructions for all devices in the automation and forward it to the owner. In
the case of SBAR, this form is present at the end of this manual, in the
removable section.
4Before commissioning the automation, ensure that the owner is adequate-
ly informed of all associated risks and hazards.
5Permanently affix on the pole the label in the pack regarding the gearmotor
manual release and locking operations.
6ONLY for installations NOT IN CONFORMITY with the criteria stated in
chapter 1.3.1 of this manual: produce the technical documentation of
the automation, which must include the following documents: an over-
all drawing of the automation, the wiring diagram of all connections
made, an assessment of all risks present and relative solutions adopted
(see forms to be compiled on the website www.niceforyou.com), dec-
larations of conformity of manufacturer of all devices used (for SBAR
see appendix II) and the declaration of conformity compiled by the
installer.
Affix a dataplate on the barrier, specifying at least the following data: type of
automation, name and address of manufacturer (responsible for commis-
sioning), serial number, year of construction and CE mark.
These are the most important phases of automation set-up for ensuring maxi-
mum system safety. The test can also be performed as a periodic check of
automation devices. Testing and commissioning of the automation must be
performed by skilled and qualified personnel, who are responsible for the tests
required to verify the solutions adopted according to the risks present, and for
ensuring observance of all legal provisions, standards and regulations, and in
particular all requirements of the standard EN 12445, which establishes the test
methods for checking automations for doors and barriers. All these operations
must be performed under the direct supervision of the head installer, i.e. the
person who enters his/her name and signature in box N°1 of the declaration of
conformity (see appendix I).
The additional or optional devices must undergo a specific test for functionality
and correct interaction with SBAR.
5.1 - Testing
The sequence of operations to be performed for testing refers to a standard
system (fig. 1) classed for “untrained users” and the automation activation set
to “automatic control” which envisages, as a minimum protection level of the
primary edge, device types C (force limitation - see standard EN 12445) com-
bined with device types D (presence detectors, e.g. photocells). Bearing in
mind that this type of use is among the most intensive, the same testing
sequence can be effectively implemented in less intensive conditions.
1Ensure that all specifications in this manual have been observed, with spe-
cial reference to the chapter “1 Safety Instructions”.
2Check correct balancing of the pole, see paragraph 3.8.
3Check correct operation of the manual release, see paragraph 3.6.
4Using the transmitter or key-operated selector switch, perform tests of
opening, closing and stopping the barrier, and ensure that pole movement
corresponds to specifications. Test several times to check for pole move-
ment and any defects in assembly or adjustment and any possible points of
friction.
5Check operation of all system safety devices one at a time (photocells, sen-
sitive edges, etc.). Each time a device is activated the “Bluebus” LED on the
control unit must flash rapidly twice to confirm acknowledgement of the
event.
6Check correct operation of the photocells as follows: depending on
whether one or two pairs of photocells have been installed, one or two par-
allelepipeds in rigid material are required (e.g. wooden panels) with the
measurements 70 x 30 x 20 cm. Each parallelepiped must have three
sides, one for each size, in reflective material (e.g. mirror or white gloss
paint) and three sides in opaque material (e.g. black matt paint). To test the
photocells positioned at 50 cm from the ground, the parallelepiped must be
placed on the ground or raised at 50 cm in the case of photocells placed at
1 m from the ground.
When testing one pair of photocells, the test specimen must be positioned
exactly at the centre of the pole with the 20 cm sides facing the photocells
and moved along the entire length of the pole (fig. 39).
When testing two pairs of photocells, the test must first be performed indi-
vidually for each pair of photocells, using one test specimen, and then
repeated using two test specimens.
Each test specimen must be positioned laterally with respect to the centre
of the pole, at a distance of 15 cm sides and then moved along the entire
length of the pole (fig. 40).
During these tests, the test specimen must be read by the photocells in any
position along the entire length of the pole.
7Ensure there is no interference between the photocells and other devices,
by intercepting the optic axis joining the two photocells by means of a cylin-
der (diameter 5 cm, length 30 cm, fig. 41): pass the cylinder first close to
the TX photocell, then close to the RX and lastly at the centre between the
two. Ensure that in all cases the device engages, changing from the active
status to alarm status and vice versa, and that the envisaged action is gen-
erated in the control unit (for example movement inversion in the Closing
manoeuvre).
8Check protection against the risk of lifting: on automations with vertical
movement, it must be ensured that there is no risk of lifting. This test can be
performed as follows: hang a weight of 20 kg mid-way along the pole (for
example, a sack of gravel), activate an Opening manoeuvre and ensure that
during operation the pole does not exceed the height of 50 cm from the
closing position. If the pole exceeds this height, reduce the motor force (see
chapter 6 - Table 7).
9If hazardous situations generated by the moving poles are protected by
means of impact force limitation, measure the force as specified in the stan-
dard EN 12445. If motor force control is used as auxiliary function with the
system for reduction of impact force, test and identify the setting that
obtains the best results.

sible manoeuvres is compatible with the intended use.
- The Solemyo system can only be used efficiently if the control unit is
active and set with the Standby function set to “All” mode (only possi-
ble using the Oview programmer).

IMPORTANT – In the programming procedure, the maximum time interval that
can elapse between activation of one key and the next is 10 seconds. When
this time elapses, the procedure terminates automatically, memorising the
modifications made up until then.
6.2 - Level two programming (adjustable parameters)
All level 2 parameters are set by default as highlighted in grey in Table 7, and
may be modified at any time as explained in Table 8.
The parameters can be set on a scale from 1 to 8. To check the value corre-
sponding to each LED see Table 7.
TABLE 6 - First level functions
LED Description Example
L1 Automatic closure This function performs automatic closure of the pole after the programmed pause time. Factory setting:
30 seconds. Value programmable from 5 to 200 seconds.
L2 Reclose after photo This function enables the pole to remain in Opening position for the time required for transit. When the function is
active, operation depends on the parameter set in the function “Automatic closure”:
• with “Automatic closure” active, the Opening manoeuvre stops immediately after the photocells are disengaged
and the Closure manoeuvre starts after 5 seconds.
• with “Automatic closure” not active, the pole always reaches the maximum Opening position (even if the
photocells are disengaged beforehand) and Closure starts after 5 seconds.
L3 Always close This function is useful in the event of a power failure, even brief. In fact if this function is active(ON), when power is
restored, the control unit detects the pole as open and starts Closure. For reasons of safety the Closure manoeuvre
is preceded by a 3-second pre-flashing interval.
L4 Stand by The Stand-by function allows consumptions to be reduced. If active, 1 minute after the end of the manoeuvre, the
control unit turns off the "Bluebus" output (connected devices) and all the LEDs apart from the Bluebus LED which
will flash more slowly. When the control unit receives a command normal operation is restored. When using SBAR
with the Solemyo system, a longer Stand By mode must be set. This operation is performed using the Oview
programmer.
L5 Deceleration long This function enables the user to double the space for starting deceleration, both in Opening and Closing. If the
function is deactivated, deceleration is short.
L6 Pre-flash This function activates a pause of 3 seconds between activation of the flashing light and the start of a manoeuvre.
L7 Sensitivity When this function is set to "ON" the level of control unit sensitivity in obstacle detection can be increased
considerably. If used as a means to read the “impact force” of the motor, the values “speed” and “motor force”
must be set accordingly in the level 2 menu.
L8 Direction of motor rotation This parameter enables inversion of the direction of motor rotation to enable barrier installation on the right; the
factory setting is “OFF” (standard motor rotation – pole closure on left).
Important – If the function is activated, the Opening and Closing positions must be memorised again (Paragraph 4.5).

Possible causes of malfunctions are listed below, which may occur during the
installation phase, or in the case of faults, possible remedies:
• The radio transmitter does not control the barrier and the transmitter led
does not illuminate: Check that the transmitter batteries are not discharged
and replace if necessary.
• The radio transmitter does not control the barrier but the transmitter led illu-
minates: check that the transmitter is correctly memorised on the radio receiv-
er. Ensure correct emission of the radio signal of the transmitter with the follow-
ing empirical test: Press a key and place the led against the aerial of a standard
radio switched on and tuned to FM at the frequency of 108.5Mhz or as close to
this value as possible; a slight noise with a scratching pulse noise should be
heard.
• No manoeuvre is performed when a command is sent, and the OK led
does not flash: check that the barrier is powered via the mains at 230 V. Also
check that the fuses F1 and F2 are not blown; in this case try to locate the
cause of the fault and then replace with a version with the same specifications;
see fig. 42.
• No manoeuvre is performed when a command is sent, and the flashing
light remains off: check that the command is effectively received; if the sent
command reaches the SS input, the OK led emits a double flash to indicate that
the command is received.
• The manoeuvre does not start and the courtesy light flashes a few ti-
mes: count the number of flashes and check with reference to the data in Table
9in Chapter 8.
• The manoeuvre is performed, but shortly afterwards the pole blocks and per-
forms a brief inversion: the selected force value may be too low to enable
movement of the pole. Check correct balancing of the pole; if necessary set a
higher force value.
WHAT TO DO IF…

8.1 - Total deletion of control unit memory
It is possible to delete all memorised data on the control unit and reset it to the
original factory settings:
01. Press and hold down “▲“ and “▼“ keys at the same time;
02. Release the keys when all Led illuminate (after approx.3 seconds);
03. When leds L1 and L2 start flashing, this means that the procedure is ter-
minated.
Important – This procedure does not delete the parameter regarding the direc-
tion of motor rotation and the number of manoeuvres performed.
8.2 - Other functions
• “Always open” function
This function is a special feature of the control unit; it is associated with the
“Step Step” input and enables an “always open” command when the Step Step
command remains active for more than 3 seconds. This function is valid for any
setting of the Step Step input (see “SS Function” in Table 7).
For example, it can be used to connect a clock for programming permanent
opening of the barrier during a specific time band.
• “Move anyway” function
If one or more safety devices malfunctions or is out of service, this function
enables control of the barrier in “hold-to-run” mode (for details, see chapter
“operation manual”).
• “Maintenance notification” function
This function enables notification of when an automation maintenance check is
necessary. The “Maintenance notification” parameter can be set with a value on
8 different levels (see Table 7).
The levels refer to the number of manoeuvres performed. The maintenance
notification is signalled via the Flash flashing light or by the maintenance indica-
tor according to the type of setting. The signals emitted by the Flash flashing
light and the maintenance indicator are shown in Table 9.
• Check of number of manoeuvres performed
The function “Maintenance notification” enables the user to check the number
of manoeuvres performed as a percentage of the maximum set limit. Proceed
as shown in Table 10.
• Manoeuvre counter reset
The manoeuvres can be reset at the end of the automation maintenance
phase. To proceed, see Table 11.

8.3 - Adding or removing devices
New devices can be added at any time, connected to the BlueBus and Stop
input or those present can be deleted as required. To do this, proceed as fol-
lows:
01. Press and hold down “▲“ and “Set” keys at the same time;
02. Release the buttons when L1 and L2 LED’s start flashing very quickly (after
approx. 3 s);
03. Wait a few seconds for the control unit to finish connected device self-
learning;
04. At the end of this phase, the STOP led must remain lit, while leds L1 and
L2 turn off (where relevant leds L3 and L4 start flashing).
After performing this procedure, the automation testing procedure must be per-
formed as described in chapter 5.1.
8.3.1 - Bluebus Inlet
This Bluebus system allows device connections to be made using just 2 con-
ductors for both the electricity supply and the communication signals. All
devices are connected in parallel on the same 2 Bluebus wires, without the
need to observe polarity; Each device is individually recognized because a
unique address is assigned to it during installation. Bluebus can be used to
connect the following: photocells, safety devices, control devices such as key-
boards and readers for transponder cards, indicator lamps, etc. The control
unit recognises each one of the devices connected during the self-learning
phase and is able to detect all possible faults in maximum safety. For this rea-
son each time a device is connected to or removed from Bluebus the self-learn-
ing phase must be repeated, as described in paragraph 4.4.
8.3.2 - Photocells
The Bluebus system enables the control unit to recognise the photocells, con-
trol routing of the relative jumpers (see Table 13) and enables assignment of the
correct value for the obstacle detection function. The routing operation is per-
formed both on TX and RX, positioning the jumpers in the same way with a
check that there are no pairs of photocells with the same address.
The photocells can be installed as shown in fig. A. Important – After installing
or removing the photocells, the device learning phase must be performed, as
described in paragraph 4.4.
It is possible to install the TX or RX photocell inside the caisson of the barrier, in
the space provided (fig. 43).
To install the photocell, proceed as follows:
01. Extract the board of the photocell from its box by prising it out with a slotted
tip screwdriver (fig. 43-a). IMPORTANT! - Do not damage the electric com-
ponents inside;
02. Open the box prepared for the photocells, present in the accessory box (fig.
47-b);
03. Block the board on the bottom of the box (fig. 43-c);
04. Pierce the rubber arranged for the passage of the electric cable (fig. 43-d);
05. Route the electric cable and connect it to the terminal of the photocell (fig.
43-e);
06. Close the bottom of the box with the cover, taking care to block the rubber in
its seat (fig. 43-f);
07. Hook the box on the lens on the side of the caisson by making it slide from
top to bottom (fig. 43-g).
8.3.3 - MOTB digital selector and proximity reader for MOMB
transponder cards
The Bluebus system enables connection of up to 4 MOTB digital selectors or 4
MOMB transponder badge readers.
MOTB enables control of the automation, by entering one of the memorised
numerical codes on the keypad.
MOMB enables control of the automation by simply placing the memorised
transponder bade close to the automation.
These devices have an individual code, which is recognised and memorised by
the control unit during the phase for learning all connected devices (see para-
graph 4.4).
This prevents an fraudulent attempts to replace a device or use of the automa-
tion by unauthorised persons. For further information, refer to the instruction
manual for MOTB and MOMB.
8.3.4 - STOP Input
The Stop input causes the manoeuvre to stop immediately followed by a short
reverse run. Devices with normally open NO or normally closed NC contact out-
puts, optical devices (Opto Sensors), or devices with 8.2 kΩconstant resist-
ance output such as sensitive edges can be connected to this input. The con-
trol unit, during the learning phase, recognises the type of device connected
and activates a STOP command when any variation in the learnt status occurs.
When set accordingly, more than one device can be connected to the STOP
input, also different from one another;
• Several NO devices can be connected in parallel, with no limit to the number;
• Several NO devices can be connected in series, with no limit to the number;
• Two devices with an 8.2KΩconstant resistance output can be connected in
parallel; multiple devices must be connected “in cascade” with a single
8.2KΩtermination resistance;
• An NO and NC type combination is also possible, placing the 2 contacts in
parallel. In this case, a 8.2 KΩresistance must be placed in series with the
NC contact; this also enables the combination of 3 devices: NO, NC and 8.2
KΩ.
Caution – If the STOP input is used to connect devices with safety functions,
only the devices with a constant resistance of 8,2 KΩor OPTO SENSOR opti-
cal devices guarantee adeguate safety levels against faults.
For connection of an optical device type OPTO SENSOR make the connections as
shown in fig. 44. The maximum current provided on the 12 Vdc line is 40 mA.
8.4 - Diagnostics
Some devices are able to emit signals that serve to recognise their state of
operation or possible faults.
8.4.1 - Signals of control unit
The leds of the terminals and the keys on the control unit (fig. 45) emit special
signals both to indicate normal operation and possible faults. Tables 14 and 15
describe the cause and solution for each type of signal.

If a flashing light is connected to the FLASH output on the control unit (or the
edge light if the LED flashing light XBA7 is connected, optional accessory), this
emits flashes at intervals of 1 second during execution of a manoeuvre. If faults
occur, the flashing light will emit shorter flashes; these are repeated twice, sep-

Warnings
1 - Children: An automation system guarantees a high level of
safety, using its detection systems to prevent movement in the pres-
ence of persons or objects, and ensuring constantly foreseeable and
safe activation. Nonetheless, it is advisable to ensure that children do
not play in the vicinity of the automation. To prevent the risk of acci-
dental activation, do not leave the remote controls within the reach of
children. this is not a toy!
2 - This product is not designed to be used by persons (including
children) whose physical, sensorial or mental capacities are reduced,
or with lack of experience or skill, unless suitable instructions regard-
ing use of the product have been provided by a person responsible
for safety or under supervision of the latter.
3 - Malfunctions:if the automation is seen to perform abnormally,
disconnect the electrical power supply from the system and manually
release the gearmotor. Never attempt to perform repairs; contact your
local installer for assistance. In the meantime the system can be
used as a manual access point, after releasing the gearmotor as
described below in this document. In the event of breakage or a
power failure, while waiting for the installer or the electrical
power supply to return, if the buffer battery is not fitted, the
automation can still be used. Manually release the gearmotor (see
step 9 - Gearmotor manual releasing and locking) and move the pole
manually as required.
4 - Safety devices disabled: the barrier can be operated even
when the safety device on the barrier do not work correctly.
- Activate the barrier command (with the transmitter or key-operat-
ed selector switch, etc.); if all is in working order, the pole opens or
closes normally; otherwise the flashing light emits a number of
flashes and the manoeuvre is not started (the number of flashes
depends on the reason for which the manoeuvre does not start).
- In this case, the user must press and hold the command within
three seconds.
- After approx. 2 seconds the barrier will start to operate in “hold-to-
run” mode, i.e. the pole will continue to move while the command
is activated; THE POLE STOPS AS SOON AS THE COMMAND IS
RELEASED.
If the safety devices are out of service, the automation must be
repaired as soon as possible.
5 - Even if you possess the skills, never modify the system or pro-
gramming and setting parameters of the automation: this is the
responsibility of the installer.
6 - Testing, periodic maintenance and any repairs must be docu-
mented by the person performing the operations and the relevant
documents must be kept by the system owner. The only operations
that can be performed by the user periodically are to clean the pho-
tocell lenses and the automation. To prevent anyone from activating
the barrier release the automation system before proceeding with the
operations (as described below). Use a slightly damp cloth to clean.
7 - Disposal: At the end of the automation’s lifetime, ensure that it
is disposed by qualified personnel and that the materials are recycled
or scrapped according to current local standards.
9 - Gearmotor manual release and locking: The gearmotor is
equipped with a mechanical system that enables manual opening
and closing of the pole. These operations are required in the event of
a power failure or malfunctions.
Before using the automation for the first time, ask the installer to explain the origin of residual risks and devote a few minutes to reading this user
instruction and warning manual given to you by the installer. Keep the manual for reference when in doubt and pass it on to new owners of the
automation.
CAUTION! – Your automation is a machine that performs your commands faithfully; negligent or improper use may constitute a hazard:
– Never activate automation controls if persons, animals or objects are present in the operating range.
– Never touch parts of the automation while the pole is moving!
– Transit is only permitted if the pole is completely open and stationary!

Maintenance Schedule
(to be given to the final user of SBAR)
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
Caution! - System maintenance must be performed by technical
and qualified personnel, in strict observance of safety standards
as envisaged by current legislation and the safety precautions
stated in Chapter 1 - “General safety warnings and precautions”,
at the start of this manual.
In general, SBAR does not require special maintenance. However, reg-
ular checks over time will guarantee system efficiency and ensure cor-
rect operation of the safety systems installed.
If SBAR is equipped with other devices not mentioned in this manual,
follow the instructions in the relative maintenance schedules.
Considering normal domestic use of the automation, periodic checks of
the system are recommended Every 6 months or, more specifically, the
period of maintenance can be calculated on the basis of these factors:
• If SBAR is set for use at high speeds, with high force levels or with
the pole weight increased by the use of accessories, more frequent
checks are required. In general; to establish the number of cycles
between each maintenance operation, estimate the durability as spec-
ified in table 4 and plan intervention at least every 10% of the resulting
manoeuvres; e.g. if total durability is 500,000 (*); maintenance should
be performed every 50,000 cycles.
(*) Special warning regarding spring replacement: the balancing
system is based on the use of a spring. The lifetime of this spring is on
average greater than 500,000 cycles, but for an adequate safety mar-
gin, the spring should be replaced before this limit.
Note also that in the event of spring breakage, SBAR still remains com-
pliant with the requirement in 4.3.4 of the standard EN 12604: 2000.
• The pole balancing system must be checked at least twice a year,
preferably when the season changes.
At the envisaged interval, the following checks and replacements must
be made for maintenance.
1Ensure that all specifications in this manual have been observed,
with special reference to the chapter “1 Safety Instructions”.
2Check correct balancing of the pole, see paragraph 3.8.
3Check correct operation of the manual release, see paragraph 3.6.
4Using the transmitter or key-operated selector switch, perform
tests of opening, closing and stopping the barrier, and ensure that
pole movement corresponds to specifications. Test several times to
check for pole movement and any defects in assembly or adjust-
ment and any possible points of friction.
5Check operation of all system safety devices one at a time (photo-
cells, sensitive edges, etc.). Each time a device is activated the
“Bluebus” LED on the control unit must flash rapidly twice to con-
firm acknowledgement of the event.
6Check correct operation of the photocells as follows: depending on
whether one or two pairs of photocells have been installed, one or
two parallelepipeds in rigid material are required (e.g. wooden panels)
with the measurements 70 x 30 x 20 cm. Each parallelepiped must
have three sides, one for each size, in reflective material (e.g. mirror
MAINTENANCE REGISTER
Important – This register must be given to the automation owner after compilation of all required parts.
This register must list all maintenance operations, repairs and modifications performed. The Register must be updated on each operation and
stored in a safe place for future inspections by authorised organisations.
This Maintenance Register refers to the following automation:
mod. SBAR. - Serial n° ......................... - Date of installation ...................... - at ......................................................................................
The following enclosed documents are part of the Register:
1) - Maintenance schedule
2) - ............................................................................................
3) - ............................................................................................
4) - ............................................................................................
5) - ............................................................................................
6) - ............................................................................................
According to the enclosed document “Maintenance Schedule”, maintenance operations must be performed at the following intervals:
every 6 months or each 10% of envisaged durability of manoeuvre cycles, depending on which event occurs first.
or white gloss paint) and three sides in opaque material (e.g. black
matt paint). To test the photocells positioned at 50 cm from the
ground, the parallelepiped must be placed on the ground or raised at
50 cm in the case of photocells placed at 1 m from the ground.
When testing one pair of photocells, the test specimen must be po-
sitioned exactly at the centre of the pole with the 20 cm sides facing
the photocells and moved along the entire length of the pole (fig. 46).
When testing two pairs of photocells, the test must first be per-
formed individually for each pair of photocells, using one test spec-
imen, and then repeated using two test specimens.
Each test specimen must be positioned laterally with respect to the
centre of the pole, at a distance of 15 cm sides and then moved
along the entire length of the pole (fig. 47).
During these tests, the test specimen must be read by the photo-
cells in any position.
7To ensure there is no interference with other devices, pass a cylin-
der (diameter 5 cm, length 30 cm) through the optic axis joining the
pair of photocells (fig. 48): pass the cylinder first close to the TX
photocell, then close to the RX and lastly at the centre between the
two. Ensure that in all cases the device engages, changing from
the active status to alarm status and vice versa, and that the envis-
aged action is generated in the control unit (for example movement
inversion in the Closing manoeuvre).
8Check protection against the risk of lifting: on automations with
vertical movement, it must be ensured that there is no risk of lifting.
This test can be performed as follows: hang a weight of 20 kg mid-
way along the pole (for example, a sack of gravel), activate an Open-
ing manoeuvre and ensure that during operation the pole does not
exceed the height of 50 cm from the closing position. If the pole
exceeds this height, reduce the motor force (see chapter 6 - Table 7).
9If hazardous situations generated by the moving poles are protect-
ed by means of impact force limitation, measure the force as spec-
ified in the standard EN 12445. If motor force control is used as
auxiliary function with the system for reduction of impact force, test
and identify the setting that obtains the best results.
10 Check efficiency of the release system: place the pole in the
Closing position and manually release the gearmotor (see para-
graph 3.6) ensuring that there is no difficulty with this procedure.
Ensure that the manual force required to move the pole on opening
is no greater than 200 N (approx. 20 Kg); the force is measured
perpendicular to the pole and at 1 m from the rotation axis. Lastly,
ensure that the key required for manual release is available in the
vicinity of the automation.
11 Power supply disconnection system check: by using the pow-
er disconnect device, and disconnecting any buffer batteries, en-
sure that all leds on the control unit are off and that the rod re-
mains stationary when any commands are sent. Check efficiency
of the locking device to prevent inadvertent and/or unauthorised
reconnection.
