Real Carriage Door & Sliding Hardware Franklin Autoswing User manual

Franklin Autoswing
Installation Manual

It is recommended that you have a low voltage electrician,
or trade member familiar with gate installations to install the
operator. You may call us or the manufacturer to see if there
is anyone in your area familiar with the Franklin Autoswing.
Real Carriage Door & Sliding Hardware is not liable for any
damage that occurs during install, and replacements are the
sole responsibility of the installer and customer. The manu-
facturer does carry a warranty for any defects or issues that
are from manufacturing only and will have to be tested by
the manufacturer’s technical team before sending replace-
ments.
It is also a good idea to install a surge protector to avoid any
damage to the operator. The operator can be damaged by
power surges or faulty wiring.
CAUTION
Thank you for buying this product, our company is
sure that you will be more than satised with the
product’s performance. The product is supplied with
a “Warnings” leaet and an “Instruction booklet”.
These should both be read carefully as they provide
important information about safety, installation,
operation and maintenance. This product complies
with the recognized
technical standards and safety regulations.
1) GENERAL OUTLINE
The control panel is supplied by the manufacturer
with standard settings. Any alteration must be set
by means of the incorporated display programmer
or by means of UNIPRO. The Control unit
completely supports the EELINK protocol. Its main
characteristics are:
- Control of two low-voltage motors up to 40W
power
- Electronic torque setting with obstacle detection
- Limit-switch control inputs
- Separate inputs for safety devices
- Incorporated rolling-code radio receiver with
transmitter cloning
- Soft start and close
The IGEA-BT (24V) is suitable for residential use and
has been designed for swing gates with particularly
large gate posts. The drive arm, built with a special
anti-shearing shape, allows the leaves to be moved
when the controller is considerably out of place
with respect to the fulcrum of the leaves. The non-
reversible electro-mechanical motor maintains the
stop during closing and opening. The release knob
with personalized key, tted outside each operator,
makes manual operation extremely easy.

Igea Motor Installation
TIP: Before mounting, refer to “Typical System
Overview” for prewiring.
• For a very ‘clean’ installation, mount the unit
directly on the head casing (if at prole)
• This motor positioning is for outswing doors
only
1. Remove the cover from the motor and set aside
2. Remove the motor from the base plate by
loosening the 4 bolts on the bottom of the motor
3. Position the base plate (note that body of the
motor should extend toward the side jamb) about 7”
from the edge of the door*
• Level the plate and mark the locations of the
holes.
• TIP: For most applications, centering the
bottom row of holes on the jamb makes for the
most secure installation.
NOTE: See page 37 for arched door applications.
4. Level and mount the plate with minimum 3/8” x
4” lag bolts (not supplied)
• For proper arm clearance, the bottom of the
plate must no higher than the lowest part of the
jamb
• Always make certain that the lag bolts penetrate
solid header and/ or
blocking material
5. Re-attach the motor to
the base plate and tighten
securely. Be sure that the
motor is seated properly in
its plastic housing
6. Assemble the articulated
lever arm and door coupling as
shown in g. 1.
• Connect straight arm and door coupling to
curved arm using plastic sleeve (K) and washer
(L)
• Secure together with rolled pin (M). The
dashed arm indicates the setup for the right
motor (viewed from inside)
7. Slide the assembled arm onto the transmission
shaft at the base of the motor
• Fasten it using the long pin (N) and C-ring (O)
8. Manually release the operator (See “Manual
Operation Mode”)
9. Open the door to the desired ‘fully open’ point
(approximately 105 degrees is recommended)
• With a measuring tape, mark the centerline
of the door mounting bracket at 40” from the
center of the
shaft (g. 2)
• Making sure that
the arm is level,
Mount the arm
to the door with
#14 x 1-1/2” pan
head screws
(not supplied)
10. Check clearance
and movement by
swinging door slowly
11. Relock the motor
(take out of manual
release mode)
1.Removethecovertothemotorandsetaside.

Troubleshooting
Doors close instead of open when photo eyes are
interrupted
• If you are having trouble with the doors
reversing the incorrect direction when the photo
beam is interrupted, then you can do one of
these two things:
1. Go to the logic menu and change the direction
2. Swap the motor power wires (#10 & #11
and #14 & #15)
Motors are trying to open the wrong direction
• If the motors are trying to pull in instead of
out, then the polarity is incorrect; and you want
to double check your wiring and make sure it
matches the wiring simplied diagram.
Wrong door is opening rst
• If the wrong door is opening rst then you have
Autoset Programming
for Quick Setup
