Real Carriage Door & Sliding Hardware Frankling Autoswing User manual

INSTALLATION MANUAL

CAUTION!
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 manufacturer 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
replacements.
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.

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 “Instruc-
tion 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.
2) SAFET Y
If correctly installed and used, this automation device satises the required safety level stan-
dards. However, it is advisable to observe some practical rules in order to avoid accidental
problems. Before using the automation device, carefully read the operation instructions and
keep them for future reference.
• Keep children, persons and things outside the automation working area, particularly during op-
eration. An incorrect installation or improper use of the product can cause damage to persons,
animals or things.
• Keep radio control or other control devices out of children’s reach, in order to
avoid any unintentional automation activation.
• Do not intentionally oppose the leaf movement.
• BFT and Real Carriage Door & Sliding Hardware declines all responsibility for any consequenc-
es resulting from failure to observe Good Technical Practice when constructing closing structures

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: There are limitations for certain arch-top radii relative to the door
width. See table in APPENDIX C for allowable radii, and APPENDIX D for more
help in positioning.
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 indi-
cates the setup for the right motor (viewed from inside).

14 AUTOSET PROGRAMMING
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 incor-
rect; 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 the wrong motor wired into
10, 11, and 42, and will need to switch the motor wiring (the 2nd door is 14, 15,
and 43).
• If you have checked these two things and your doors are not moving, then
check to make sure your limit stops (also known as cams) are not reversed
(see page 6).
• It is important to note that the left door is setup as the bottom cam is open
and the top is close, whereas the right motor is top is open and bottom is
close.
Default/Factory Setting
• If you ever need to revert to factory settings and start programming over
again, please go into the menu on your control board press the plus or minus
button until it reads default and then press the OK button.
NOTE: You know your doors are properly setup after you nish the AUTOSET,
the doors rest in the closed position and the screen display reads “c.c..”
