Specific Operation - SOMFY CONTROL BOX 3S RTS FR Manual De Uso

CONTROL BOX 3S RTS
3.1.2. Pedestrian opening with a 2 or 4-button remote
control
Press the programmed button to open the gate in pedestrian mode.
3.1.3. Obstacle detection operation
When an obstacle is detected during opening, the gate will stop and par-
tially reverse.
When an obstacle is detected during closing, the gate will stop and reopen.

3.2. Specific operation

Depending on the peripherals installed and the operating options pro-
grammed by your installer, the motorisation may have the following spe-
cific functions:
3.2.1. Total opening with a 3-button remote control
3.2.2. Pedestrian opening with a 3-button remote con-
trol
3.2.3. Operation with safety cells
An obstacle placed between the cells will prevent the gate from closing.
if an obstacle is detected when the gate is closing, it stops then reopens
fully or partially depending on how it was programmed during installation.

If the cells are obscured for 3 minutes, the system switches to the "wired
deadman operation" mode. In this mode, a command via a wired input
causes the gate to move slowly. The gate moves for as long as the com-
mand is issued and stops immediately when the command is discontinued.
The system switches back to normal operating mode as soon as the cells
are no longer obscured.
Attention
the "wired deadman" mode requires the use of a safety contact
(e.g. keyed reversing switch ref. 1841036).
Operation with orange flashing light
The orange light is activated during any movement of the gate.
A 2-second pre-warning signal before movement starts may be pro-
grammed during installation.
3.2.4. Remote lighting operation
Depending on the programming performed during installation, the lighting
comes on each time the motorisation is started and remains on when it
stops for the duration of the programmed time delay.
If a remote control is programmed for the remote lighting, operation is as
follows:
With a 2 or 4 button remote control
Press the programmed button to operate the lighting.
With a 3-button remote control
STOP
3.2.5. Operation in sequential mode with automatic re-
closing after time delay
The gate closes automatically after a time delay programmed during in-
stallation.
A new command issued during this time delay cancels automatic closing
and the gate remains open.
The next command issued closes the gate.
3.2.6. Operation using the backup battery
If a backup battery is installed, the motorisation will work even during a
power outage.
Operation is then activated under the following conditions:
• Reduced speed.
• The additional devices (photoelectric cells, orange light, wired code
keypad, etc.) do not operate.
Battery specifications:
• Life: 24 hrs; 5 operating cycles depending on the weight of the gate.
• Recharging time: 48 hours
• Service life before replacement: Approximately 3 years.
For optimum battery life, it is recommended that the main power supply be
switched off and the motor operated using the battery for several cycles,
three times a year.
