8) TERMINAL BOARD CONNECTIONS
First pass the appropriate electric cables through the raceways and fix
the various automation components to the chosen points, then connect
them following the directions and diagrams contained in the control unit
instruction manual.
Carry out phase, neutral and (compulsory) earth connections. The
protection wire (earth) with yellow/green insulating sheath must be
connected to the appropriate terminals marked by their symbol
It is absolutely necessary to avoid operating the automation system
without adequate protection. This can jeopardise personal and product
safety. In no circumstances must the automation system be activated before
carrying out all connections and checking the efficiency of all safety devices.
9) LIMIT SWITCH SETTING
The barrier is provided with electrical limit switches and end-of-stroke
mechanical stop devices. There must be a rotation margin (about 1°) on
closing and opening between the electrical limit switches and mechanical
stop devices (fig. 11).
The adjustment is carried out as follows:
- Activate the manual release, bring the bar to its completely open position
(perfectly vertical).
- Manually advance the bar by about 2° with respect to the vertical position.
- Set the opening microswitch (fig. 12 ref. SWO) by loosening the dowel (fig.
13 ref. G) and moving the cam (fig. 13 ref. C) until the microswitch trip
is heard (or checking that the respective control unit LED switches off).
- Manually bring the bar to its completely closed position resting onto the
fork (fig. 11 ref. F). Check that the bar is perfectly horizontal using a
level (fig. 11 ref. L).
- Set the closing microswitch (fig. 12 ref. SWC) by loosening the dowel (fig.
13 ref. G) and moving the cam (fig. 13 ref. C) until the microswitch trip
is heard (or check that the respective control unit LED switches off).
- Set the closing microswitch (fig. 12 ref. SWC) so that the bar stops a few
millimeters before hitting the fork (fig. 11 ref. F).
- Activate the motorised operation and run a few cycles.
- Check that the electrical limit switch stops the bar before it reaches its
vertical open position.
- Check that the electrical limit switch stops the bar before it reaches its
horizontal closed position on the "F" fork.
- If necessary, adjust the position of the "C" cams (fig. 13) which control
the end-of-stroke devices.
10) EMERGENCY RELEASE (fig. 14)
The emergency release allows the bar to be manoeuvred manually.
It is activated from the outside of the box by inserting the personalised key
into the lock placed under the bar and rotating it anticlockwise by 180°.
WARNING! When an actuator without bar needs to be released, ensure
that the balancing spring is not compressed (bar in the opening position).
11) USE OF AUTOMATION
As automation can be remotely controlled and therefore not within sight, it
is essential to frequently check that all safety devices are perfectly efficient.
WARNING! In case of any malfunction in the safety devices, take
immediate action and require the assistance of a specialised technician.
It is recommended to keep children at a safe distance from the automation
field of action.
12) CONTROL
The automation system is used to obtain motorised access control. There
are different types of control (manual, remote, magnetic badge, mass
detector etc.) depending on the installation requirements and characteristics.
For the various control systems, see the relevant instructions.

14) SCRAPPING
Materials must be disposed of in conformity with the current regulations.
In case of scrapping, the automation devices do not entail any particular
risks or danger.
In case of recovered materials, these should be sorted out by type
(electrical components, copper, aluminium, plastic etc.).
15) DISMANTLING
