OPEN2 BUTTON (COM - OPEN2) (ONLY PARK MODE)
If the NORMAL MODE is enabled (DIP6 OFF), the OPEN2 command will be disabled.
If the PARK MODE is enabled (DIP6 ON), the OPEN2 will perform the boom arm
opening depending on the switch DIP8 position.
If DIP8 is turned ON and PARK MODE is enabled, OPEN2 will perform the boom arm
opening regardless the state of the TLC input.
If DIP8 is turned OFF and PARK MODE is enabled, OPEN2 will perform the boom arm
opening only if the TLC contact is OPEN (no vehicle at the Entry, see scheme 4).
OKCLOSE INPUT (COM - OKCLOSE) (ONLY PARK MODE)
If the NORMAL MODE is enabled (DIP6 OFF), the OKCLOSE command will be
disabled.
If the PARK MODE is enabled (DIP6 ON), the OKCLOSE will perform the boom arm
closure after the vehicle transit.
Usually, this command is connected to the Normally Open contact from a photocell
receiver or a magnetic sensor device installed along the boom arm closing line. The
vehicle will engage the contact when it reaches the closing line. The boom arm will close
as soon as the vehicle left the closing line and the contact is released.
TRAFFIC LIGHT CONTROL (COM - TLC) (ONLY PARK MODE)
The TLC input can be connected to the Entry magnetic loop device (see scheme 4). The
OPEN1 command is enabled only if the TLC input is closed, presence of a vehicle at the
entrance. Whereas the OPEN2 command is enabled only if the TLC input is opened,
absence of a vehicle at the entrance.
If in PARK MODE the TLC input is useless.
RESTORING OPERATIONS AFTER A BLACKOUT
In case of a blackout occurs, the switch DIP10 permits to change the barrier behaviour
when the mains will be restored.
DIP10 - OFF => When the mains is restored, the boom arm will remains still waiting
for a command.
DIP10 - ON => When the mains is restored, the boom arm will close.
OPERATING SAFETY ACCESSORIES
PHOTOCELL (COM- PHOT)
If the boom arm is opened and there is an obstacle within the photocells (the photocell
beam is cut), any close command will be ignored.
If the boom arm is closing and an obstacle cuts the photocell beam, the boom arm will
stop and reverse the movement in opening.
With the boom arm closed and an obstacle within the photocells (the photocell beam
is cut), if an open command occurs the boom arm will open regardless to the obstacle
presence.
NB: we recommend checking the photocells working every 6 months.
ATTENTION: In case the receiver led remains lit,
malfunctioning of the main supply is suspected.
It is advisable to connect electrically to earth the
columns or the photocells stands to the terminal D-,
to shield the photocells from external noise.
Be careful not to short circuit the system when the
supply phases are inverted!
SAFETY STRIP (COM -EDGE)
During closure, if engaged it reverses the opening motion.
If the safety edge remains engaged (contact NO) movement is enabled only for opening.
If not used, apply a jumper on the COM-EDGE terminals.
MONITORING SAFETY STRIPS (D+TEST D-)
You can monitor the safety edge/s through the entrance D+TEST and the DIP 9 ON.
Monitoring consists of a Functional test, of the safety edge at the end of each complete
opening of the bar. After each opening, the closure of the bar is thus allowed only if the
safety edge/s have passed the Functional test.
WARNING: MONITORING OF THE SAFETY STRIP INPUT CAN BE ENABLED THROUGH
DIP 9 TURNED ON OR DISABLED THROUGH DIP 9 TURNED OFF. IN FACT,
THE SAFETY EDGES FUNCTIONAL TEST CAN BE CARRIED OUT ONLY WHEN
DEALING WITH DEVICES EQUIPPED WITH THEIR OWN CONTROL POWER
SUPPLY. A MECHANICAL SAFETY EDGE CANNOT BE MONITORED, AND
SAFETY STRIP SELF-TEST ALARM (DIP 9 ON)
At the end of the opening if the safety strip monitoring operation is negative, an alarm
indicated by a blinker that lights up twice in a row before going off for 2 seconds, and
by the buzzer (if connected) enabled for 5 minutes, get into action. In this case the gate
cannot open and normal functions are reinstated only upon repair of the safety edge and
by pressing one of the enabled switches.
STOP BUTTON (COM - STOP)
During any operation, the STOP button blocks the bar.
If pressed with the bar fully open automatic closure is excluded temporarily (if selected
through DIP3 ON).
Therefore a new command operation is required to close it.
On the following cycle the «automatic closure" operation is enabled again (if selected
through DIP3 ON).
FUNCTIONING IN DEAD MAN MODE WHEN THE SAFETY DEVICES ARE FAILING
If the safety edge fails or remains engaged for more than 5 seconds, or if photocell fails or
remain engaded for more than 60 seconds, the OPEN 1, OPEN 2, CLOSE, and K BUTTON
commands will work only in dead man mode.
The signal that this mode has been activated is given by the blinking of the programming
led.
With the blinking of the programming led, the opening and closing operation are allowed
only with the command button pressed and held. The radio commands and that of
automatic closing, will be excluded, since their use in this mode, is not allowed by the
norms.
Once the failing safety device is repaired, in automatic after 1 second, all standard
commands that were selected, such as step by step, automatic mode, radio commands
and automatic closing start functioning again.
Note 1: during this functioning in dead man mode, in case of damage to the safety
Note 2: the stop command is not to be considered a safety command that can be
The dead-man operation is only an emergency operation which must be
activated for a very short period and with the complete installation at sight so
to have a secure and safe control of the system. As soon as possible however,
the failing safety devices must be repaired and activated.
BLINKER 230V 40W
You can control the blinker output, through DIP 13, in the following ways:
DIP 13 OFF => the blinker is supplied through fixed voltage. Therefore, connect a SPARK
12Vdc
Term.
DIP 13 ON => RAPID S, RAPID N and RAPID PARK types of barrier come with the blinker
D-
The blinker is power supplied at intermittence, with 500 mS on/off blinks during opening
and 250 mS on/off blinks during closure.
In case of safety-edge alarm or safety-edge auto-test the blinker output changes
intermittence turning to 2 short blinks before going off for 2 seconds.
BUZZER (Optional) (COM-BUZZER)
During opening the buzzer shall emit an intermittent acoustic signal shortening acoustic
signal intervals during closure. When the safety devices (alarm) get into action, this
acoustic signal increases the intermittence frequency. Power supplied to buzzer 200
mA at 12Vdc.
GATE OPEN WARNING LIGHT (COM-SIGNAL)
Its function is to signal when the barrier is open, partially open or not totally closed. It
turns off only when the gate is totally closed. The buzzer goes off only with the barrier
totally closed.
