8. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
4.1 – Safety Installation Information
1. Install the gate operator only when:
a) The operator is appropriate for the construction and the usage class of the gate.
b) All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 6’ (1.83 m)
above the ground to prevent a 2 ¼” (6cm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in
that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position.
c) All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and guarding is supplied for exposed rollers
2. The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access
opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will
not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
3. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when
opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall not be open into public access areas.
4. The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator
5. Controls intended for user activation must be located at least six feet (6’) away from any moving part of the gate and where the
user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible
controls shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use.
6. The Reset switch must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to
start.

7. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the gate where easily visible.
8. For a gate operator utilizing a non-contact sensor:
a) Reference the owner’s manual regarding placement of non-contact sensor for each type of application.
b) Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is still
moving.
c) One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter
reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
9. For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge sensor:
a) One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the leading edge,
trailing edge and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate
b) One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vehicular vertical lift gate.
c) A hard wired contact sensor such as the one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment
protection functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures,
natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless contact sensor shall function under the intended end-use conditions.
d) One or more contact sensors shall be located on the inside and outside leading edge of a swing gate. Additionally, if the
bottom edge of a swing gate is greater than 6” (152 mm) above the ground at any point in its arc of travel, one or more contact
sensors shall be located on the bottom edge.

11 - INTRODUCTION: ELECTRONIC SYSTEM’S TECHNICAL FEATURES
“Triex TOP” Control Board runs with a 32-bit processor able to perform 40 million instructions per second, with features which are
specic to electric motors control. Its processor can manage the entire operator setting, such as the motor, the encoder1 and even
receive a radiofrequency code from a transmitter.
It is endowed with an EEProm2 memory which stores the acquired remote controls’ codes in a encripted way. This memory can be
removed to be used in another compatible PPA product, such as PPA’s loose receiver‘Alcance’ and vice versa. The control board is also
compatible to rolling code remote controls, with PPA’s protocol.
The system actuation can be performed via remote control through a embedded radiofrequency receiver, a loose receiver or any other
device with an NC (Normally closed) contact, such as a pushbutton.
The gate’s position control is performed through a PPA’s patented encoder system called“Reed Digital”.
12 - CONTROL BOARD
12.1 - Overview

14
12.2 - Power Supply
The power supply must be connected to the‘R’ and ‘S’ inputs on the power terminal blocks, the CN7 Connector.
WARNING
Be sure that the circuit breaker in the electrical panel is in the OFF position
before attempting to connect any wiring to the control board.
It is required that the ground terminal
to be connected to the network
grounding cable.
12.3 - Induction Motor Connection
The three wires of the induction motor must be connected to the“MOTOR” terminal block. THERE IS NO NEED TO FOLLOW THE WIRES’
COLOR SEQUENCE3.
12.4 -‘ENC’ encoder connection
It is used to connect, through a proper cable, the motor and the control board. There are sensors inside the gearbox which provides
information on displacement direction and position of the gate during operation. Such information is essential to the operator’s proper
running.
There are two sensors inside the encoder and each one is represented by the ENCA and ENCB LEDs. Each one lits according to the disk
position.

15
12.5 -‘TRAVA’Audio Alarm connection
It is used to connect, through a “PPA Relay Module”, the buzzer for audio alarm. This “electronic piezo” will sound when an alarm
condition occurred. The operation of this output will be explained in “Inherent Entrapment Protection System”.
12.6 -‘LUZ’courtesy light connection
In case one opts to use the courtesy light, the ‘Optional Relay Module’ must be connected to this connector. The courtesy light will be
always enabled.
12.7 -‘RX’ separated receiver connection
Input for connecting the separated receiver to the control board through the ‘RX’ connector. When a command is accepted, the ‘CMD’
(command) LED is activated. The HRF Jumper must be removed when the separated receptor is added to the system to switch o the
incorporated receptor.
12.8 -‘BOT’ pushbutton connection
The control board acknowledges a pushbutton command when the‘BOT’terminal block is connected to the GND, i.e., a pulse t the GND.
Terminal block 1: GND (-);
Terminal block 4: BOT (NO Contact).
12.9 -‘HIB’ end-of-stroke reeds connection
The control board acknowledges an activated ‘reed’ when the pin corresponding to it on the HIB pin bar is connected to the GND, i.e.,
a pulse to the GND.
The only condition that must be followed is that the reed that represents the open gate must be connected in such a way that the‘RDA’
LED lits (HIB connector pin marked with an‘A’). And the‘RDF’LED must lit when the gate is closed (HIB connector pin marked with an‘F’).
12.10 - ‘SCI’ connector
Reserved for future use.

16
13 - ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION SYSTEMS
13.1 - Internal Entrapment Protection System (Type A)
This operator contains an inherent entrapment protection system (position sensor and current sensor) that allows the equipment to
detect the presence of obstacles during either the opening or closing cycle.
The gate will reverse direction if an obstruction is detected. The system logic operation complies with following rules:
1. During the closing cycle: If an obstruction is encountered, the gate reverses.
1.1 After complete the reversal cycle, the operator will hold the gate at open position and disable (if enabled) the auto-
close function.
1.2 During the reversal, if the equipment encounters another obstruction, the gate will reverse again for 2 seconds and
enters in hard shutdown mode (audio alarm) and the operator will need to be reset.
2. During the opening cycle: If and obstruction is encountered, the operator will reverse for 2 seconds and hold the gate at this
position and disable (if enabled) the auto-close function.
2.1 If the operator encounters another obstruction twice consecutively, it will enter in hard shutdown mode (audio
alarm) and the operator will need to be reset.
IMPORTANT
• Note that this is a contact sensor so it will act after “physically”
encountering an obstruction. For this protection to function
correctly, the operator’s force and limits must be properly adjusted.
• In the storage cycle (limits conguration), the inherent entrapment
protection feature only has the function of recognizing the opening
and closing cycle limits, that is, the route point where an obstruction
is detected during the conguration is interpreted as the gate limit.
13.2 - External Entrapment Protection System (Type B1)
The external entrapment protection system
is a non-contact sensor which also provides
entrapment protection.
It is important to install two external sensors to
protect against entrapments during both the
opening and closing gate cycles.
Typical Installation

17
13.3 -‘FOT’ closing cycle photoelectric sensor
WARNING
The control board only starts the closing movement when this
sensor is already working properly.
Use only Miller Edge 4-wire pulsed sensors to comply with UL325
13.4 -‘FEC’ opening cycle photoelectric sensor
WARNING
The control board only starts the opening movement when this
sensor is already working properly.
If the gate opening movement does not generate any entrapment
situation, it is possible to disable the input for the open sensor
(see topic 16.3 "TRV").
Use only Miller Edge 4-wire pulsed sensors to comply with UL325
IMPORTANT
For proper operation it is important to
connect the enclosure of the sensors
(photoelectric receiver side) to the
chassis ground of the operator.
WARNING
The logic controller supplies 15V (maximum
120 mA direct current) to power photocells and
receivers and IT DOES NOT HAVE OVERCURRENT
PROTECTION. In case the equipment need
a higher voltage or current, a further power
supply must be used.

19
13.6 -‘ABR’ audio alarm reset connection
Connection for an external reset button. This button is used to turn o the audio alarm and to reset the operator after a Hard Shutdown
has occurred.
Terminal block 1: GND (-);
Terminal block 5: ABR (N.O. Contact).
14 - FORCE ADJUSTMENT
IMPORTANT
To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
1. Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED
by a moving gate.
2. Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety
reversal system.
3. NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move
gate.
4. NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking
gate.
5. If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, FOP for example, the
other control may also need adjustment (FME).
6. After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be
tested. Gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object.
14.1 -‘FOP’ High Speed Force Adjustment
Before starting the adjustment of the operating force, the operator must be recorded with the limit and operating normally, for more
information see topics "10" and "15".
In this condition sets the Dip Switch 6 (FOP) to the ON position and press the (‘-‘) button until the blue LED (OSC) ashes. Return the
Dip 6 to OFF position and give a command to move the gate, see if the gate can move. If not, enter the FOP function again (Dip 6 ON
position) and press the (+) button. Return the Dip 6 to OFF position and test again. Repeat this procedure until the gate can complete
the course of opening and closing. This setting is the same for both opening and closing cycle.
In this condition, the force is the minimum required to move the gate operator. Then enter the FOP function again and increase (‘+’
button) 1 level to ensure that the gate performs the operation even with debris on the gate’s track.
Once congured, return the DIP 6 to OFF position.

20
14.2 -‘FME’ Low Speed Force Adjustment
Before starting the adjustment of the operating force, the gate operator must be recorded with the limit and operating normally, for
more information see topics "10" and "15".
In this condition sets the Dip Switch 1 and 6 (FME) to the ON position and press the (-) button until the blue LED (OSC) ashes. Return
the Dip 1 and 6 to the OFF position and give a command to move the gate, see if the gate can reach the closing and opening gate catch
post. If not, enter the FME function again and press the button (+). Return the DIPs 1 and 6 to the OFF position and test again. Repeat
this procedure until the gate can complete the entire travel of opening and closing cycle.
In this condition, the force is the minimum required to move the gate operator. Then enter the FOP function again and increase (‘+’
button) 1 level to ensure that the gate performs the operation even with debris on the gate’s track.
Once congured, return the DIP 1 and 6 to the OFF position.
15 - OPERATOR SYSTEM LOGIC FUNCTION
15.1 – Getting started in gate mode (Gate travel recognition)
When the inverter is powered up, after being properly installed on the operator, the gate should start an opening movement after an
external command or if the ‘+’ button is pressed.
If instead the gate starts a closing movement, remove the ‘F/R’jumper to change the direction of the motor. After removing the jumper
the gate will stop. Press the‘+’ button again or proceed with an external command. The gate should start opening.
Afterwards, let the gate open until it reaches the opening physical stop or the REED A (magnet limit switch) is activated. Then, it will
automatically reverse the movement direction once again to close; let it reach the closing physical stop or activate the REED F.
WARNING
The operator can work only with ENCODER (Digital) or ENCODER + REED
(Hybrid), but cannot work only with a REED.
During the travel recognition only the obstruction of the external
entrapment protection device can reverse the gate movement direction.
Your automatic gate opener is set and ready to use.
15.2 – Gate Operation after a power cycle (travel recognized)
After the previous operation, the gate does not need to recognize the travel again. When the inverter is powered up, the gate simply
closes slowly after a command (‘+’ button or external one), until it reaches the closing physical stop. The motor will turn o and the
operator is ready to use again.
During this rst closing cycle, only the photocell obstruction can reverse the gate movement direction (any other command will be
ignored). In this case, when gate is fully opened the operator is ready to use.
In summary, after a reset occurs (with travel recognized – ‘15.1’) the operator just need to get a reference of its position (fully closed or
fully opened).
IMPORTANT
When the Hybrid (ENCODER + REED) mode is used, if the
gate is located in one of the magnets, it will start with full
speed since it already has a reference of its position.
WARNING
It is important to properly install a physical stop for both
open and close cycle so that the control board can self adjust
(minor corrections) the travel of the gate after every cycle.
