before it is used or work starts!
Ê
It is not permied to use high-pressure cleaners (and related
cleaning agents)! Use a so brush with a small quanty of water
without cleaning agents.
Warning - Electrical voltage
Aer installaon interchange the plug in the highest posion
with the vent plug! Refer to the permied mounng posions in
the product manual.*
* Not applicable to motor gearboxes lled with grease!
2.2 Precauons and safety instrucons
Precauons
GENERAL
A system can be dangerous. Safety precauons and instrucons are important.
• If these precauons cannot be obeyed, then use warnings.
Suggeson to perform an operaon more eecvely.
May result in damage or problems if an acon is performed
incorrectly.
May result in minor injury if the hazard is not avoided.
Signicant injury, possible death, if the hazard is not avoided.
Severe injury and possible death if the hazard is not avoided.

• The responsibility for precauons and warnings lies with the installer of the system. Refer to the,
local or naonal, laws and regulaons of the country if a cercaon (mark) is necessary.
• Parts of the electrical or electronic installaons are connected to dangerous electrical voltages.
Work without professional competence or not obeyed warning instrucons could cause injury
and/or material damage.
• Ridder is not responsible for injury, material damage or consequenal damage if accessories are
used that Ridder did not make.
TRANSPORT, STORAGE AND PACKAGING
The condions and instrucons that follow are applicable.
• Ambient temperature: -15 to +60 °C (+5 to +140 °F).
• Ambient: A not-condensed relave humidity is necessary.
• Do a check for transport damage and missing parts immediately on incoming goods.
• Tell damages and missing parts immediately to the transport company and to your local Aer
Sales contact person.
• Do not use damaged products and if necessary do not start the work.
• Do not remove the product from the (sealed) packaging before it is sent to the installaon site.
This prevents damage (from mechanical shocks) to the product.
• Use applicable means-of-transport with dimensions which are sucient. Use (if necessary) the
correct work equipment and accessories. Refer to “Dimensions” and “Technical specicaons”.
Make sure that the working condions comply with the, local or naonal, laws and regulaons.
• Make sure that storage areas and the areas in the means-of-transport are dry and the airow is
sucient.
• Make sure that the products do not touch the (moist) boom surface of storage areas and of the
means-of-transport (use pallets or such). The boom surfaces must be smooth.
• Make sure that the products are protected from dust, dirt and direct sunlight.
• Apply an applicable corrosion-prevenve agent to metal surfaces that are not painted.
• Aer installaon discard the packaging and obey the applicable naonal and/or local regulaons.
Safety instrucons
• Use (if applicable) personal protecve-equipment for protecon which agrees with the dierent
types of work.
• Do not let persons and not approved personnel be near controls and systems in operaon.
• Damaged systems must be stopped immediately unl they are repaired.
• Use safety barriers for system parts that move. Refer to the applicable standards and guidelines.
• The safety distance to the danger zone (if applicable) must agree with applicable standards and
guidelines (for example ISO 13857:2008).
• Do not operate systems when the motor gearbox (internally and/or externally) is frozen in cold
and moist condions (for example because of snow or ice).
• Do not operate systems when persons are in the danger zone and can touch the system.
If you do not obey the safety instrucons that follow it can be
dangerous and cause injury.

• Monitor the danger zone when you work with or near the system.
• Stop and de-energize systems during maintenance and cleaning work on or near the system.
• Make sure that there is sucient space between parts that move and adjacent objects.
• Stay away from or safety areas where there is a risk to become caught in a system that moves.
• The torque and the duty cycle of the system must be in the range of the motor gearbox
parameters. Refer to the product manual of the used Ridder motor gearbox at ridder.com.
2.3 Residual risks
Automac controls
The Ridder drive-units are usually used in automac controlled systems. Persons who do work or
stay near the system must know about that. If persons or their clothes touch the system during
operaon, it can be dangerous.
Forces
Ridder cannot be sure that there will be no injury to persons or damage to the system because of
the forces in the systems (in which the drive unit is installed).

3.2 Descripon
SynCore RW units are applicable to synchronized control of screen
systems with a maximum of six Ridder RW motor gearboxes. The
RW unit is part of drive units with motor gearboxes type RW45,
RW240/400/600, RW800, RW1000/1400, RW1200/1600S or RW2000S.
The RW unit is applicable to:
• Dierent supply voltages
• Dierent mains frequencies
• 3-phase and 1-phase voltages.
The RW unit has a control board with a microprocessor and a semiconductor relay.
The control board has connecons for:
• The supply voltage
• The power supply for the electric motor (EM)
• An automac control signal (24 V AC/DC) from an automac control-system (ACS)
• A fault contact (NC)
• The PTC thermistor in the electric motor (EM) (if applicable) for thermal protecon.
The limit-switch system is also connected to the control board of the RW unit.
The SynCore RW unit transmits control signals from the automac control-system (ACS) and
monitors if these are processed without malfuncons. The RW unit has rotaonal-eld detecon
and phase detecon of the supply voltage.
The 24 V AC/DC control input is protected from:
• Control in two direcons at the same me
• Sudden changes of direcon.
The RW unit has status LEDs to show error messages of the system.
The SynCore RW unit has plug connectors and terminal strips to connect the cables. To pull the
cables through, out of the housing, the RW unit also has cable glands. The protecon rang of the
RW unit housing is IP54.
Opmerking: SynCore conguraons are not possible/permied with RW200 motor gearboxes!

3.3 Applicaon
The SynCore RW Unit is installed, as part of a drive unit, on dierent RW motor gearboxes. The RW
unit is used to control the motor gearboxes in two direcons-of-rotaon.
The SynCore RW Unit (on dierent RW motor gearboxes) is only applicable to screen systems.
For other (dierent) applicaons, approval from Ridder Drive Systems is necessary.
3.4 Dimensions
Note: The dimensions and illustraons are approximate. In this product manual shown illustraons
can be dierent than the components and/or systems.
Make sure that (with RW motor gearboxes) operated systems comply
with the provisions of the applicable safety standards and safety
guidelines. This prevents (for example) the risk to become caught in
a system that moves.
