Delivery, Movement & Transportaton
5
The barrier should ALWAYS! be moved with care and attention. The products are very heavy
individually as well as a whole. You should not attempt to move this or any other products by
unapproved handling methods.
The manufacturer will use a qualified transport company to deliver the product conforming to the
necessary regulations as detailed below:
ŸAll drivers are qualified
ŸAll drivers are tested once yearly
ŸAll drivers carry risk assessments and method statements (available on request)
ŸThey are controlled under law to conform as there are no trade regulation standards to comply with
Health and safety Considerations:
Moving Goods Safely (MGS) is a national project involving both the Health and Safety Executive (HSE)
and Local Authorities (LA) working in partnership. The project aims to reduce injuries and ill-health arising
from the movement of goods from supplier through haulier to the recipient and end user including any
home deliveries. The project will focus upon the delivery and collection of goods and the hazards this
generates. It covers the main areas that cause the majority of injuries and ill-health to workers, including:
ŸWorkplace transport;
ŸSlips & trips, and;
ŸMusculoskeletal disorders (MSD).
The movement of goods presents us, as health and safety regulators, with the challenge of dealing with a
huge variety of issues. The commercial organisations involved within the movement of goods are diverse
including haulier, third party logistics providers, pallet networks, retailers etc, with some very large
companies, thousands of small businesses and the self-employed. The movement of goods is more than
just trucks on the road with a large proportion of accidents happening at the delivery/collection sites that are
often not directly under the control of the company making the delivery or collection. Communication and
cooperation problems can arise due to the many organizations involved in the movement of the goods, and
this can also lead to difficulties in effectively managing health and safety.

5/6. Now it is time to fit the pole to the barrier, you must drill through the pole AFTER you have slid it onto
arm using a 6mm HSS drill bit. The holes should be drilled at 60mm then 200mm from the knuckle as
shown above. These measurements have been supplied to maintain the optimum strength of the pole arm
adaptor. Also please note that the pole is a precise fit so may need a degree of manipulating onto the
7/8. When all holes have been drilled use the M6 bolts supplied to secure the pole to the adaptor, if you
have any accessories such as a mag lock or boom lights connect these before securing the pole. Once
this is done manually wind the pole up and down to check operation and alignment.Now connect all loops,
power and access control using the wiring diagram. For any other specific wiring access control wiring
details please contact your supplier. Just remember to check all connections and the barrier is earthed

systems in general terms, and provides a description of each of the
configurable parameters.
3.1 Run and Stop modes
The Zelio PLC has two modes: run mode and stop mode. These are selected
via the Zelio front panel by pressing the MENU/OK button, scrolling with the
arrow keys to RUN/STOP and pressing MENU/OK again. Run is the normal
operation mode. When Stop mode is selected, the PLC will ignore its inputs and
no outputs will be activated.
Note: When run mode is selected via the menu, the choice of initialising
the non volatile memory in the PLC is given. If the option to initialise
the memory is selected (“WITH NONVOLAT INI”), changes made to
the configuration using the custom menu system described in section
3.4 will be reset to default values. However, changes made via the
parameters menu as described in section 3.2 will not be reset.
It is suggested that all normal configuration be done in run mode. This is
because the parameter menu is somewhat simplified in this mode, and the
custom menu system is only available when in this mode.
3.2 Configuring parameters via the parameter menu
Only an overview of using the parameters menu is given here. For details
consult the Zelio documentation, as the parameters menu is a standard feature
of the Zelio PLC. Only editing the parameters menu in run mode is described.
3.2.1 Accessing the parameters menu
The parameters menu is accessed by pressing the MENU/OK button, scrolling
with the arrow keys to CONFIGURATION, and pressing MENU/OK again. Once this
is done the first parameter (normally H1) will be displayed, with the cursor (i.e.
the flashing character) positioned near the top left of the screen on the
parameter number. Whilst the cursor is in this position (and only whilst in this
position), the up arrow will then cycle forwards through the list of available
parameters (i.e. H1, H2, TT1, TT2 ... TT7) and the down arrow will cycle back.
As this is done, the screen will change to show the relevant information for that
parameter. The diagram below shows a typical screen shot for clock parameter
H1, with the bold character showing the cursor position:
H1 ----4--
B
H:M ON 12:16
H:M OFF 12:18
- 5 -
The right and left arrows will move between the various parts of the screen
that can be altered (see details below). When the cursor is in any position other
than the top left, the up and down arrows alter the value that the cursor is
currently over.
After altering a value with the up and down arrows, pressing MENU/OK or trying
to move to a different parameter (by going to the top left and pressing up or
down) will result in a message asking for confirmation of the changes – use the

up and down arrows and the MENU/OK key to select YES or NO.
Note: The parameters menu may be accessed in both run and stop modes.
However, it is suggested that it normally be done in run mode. This
is because a number of extra parameters are listed when in stop
mode which are not configurable. These make it more difficult to
access the important parameters.
3.2.2 Altering clock parameters (Hn)
Clocks are used to set the days and times that certain things should happen –
for example days and times at which the gate should open automatically. The
purpose of each clock is described in section 3.3. This is a brief description of
how to set a clock – for more details please refer to the Zelio documentation.
A typical clock screen when edited in run mode is shown below. The shaded
areas are the areas to which the cursor (the flashing character) may be moved
with the left and right arrows. Each of these may be altered with the up and
down arrows.
H2 -1--4--
B
H:M ON 12:15
H:M OFF 14:00
The table below describes what each of these fields means:
H2 Indicates which clock is currently being displayed (H2 here).
Using the up and down arrows here will switch to editing
another clock or timer. If any values for this clock have been
altered you will be asked to confirm your changes.
B Each clock has four “channels” called A, B, C and D. Each
channel specifies an on and an off time, and can apply to
any combination of days of the week (see below). This
parameter selects which channel is currently being
displayed for editing.
-1--4-- This displays which days of the week the currently selected
channel is active. 0 is Monday and 6 is Sunday, so in the
example at left the channel would be active for Tuesday and
Friday only. Each day may be selected with the left and right
arrows and turned on and off with the up and down arrows.
H:M ON 12:15 This specifies the On time for the currently selected channel.
- 6 -
H:M OFF 14:00 This specifies the Off time for the currently selected
channel.
3.2.3 Altering Timer parameters (Tn)
Several timers are used to control aspects of the gate operation – these are
listed in section 3.3. This is a brief description of how to set a timer – for more
details please refer to the Zelio documentation.
A typical timer screen when editid in run mode is shown below. The shaded
areas are the areas to which the cursor (the flashing character) may be moved
with the left and right arrows. Each of these may be altered with the up and
down arrows.
