FUNCTIONING OF SAFETY ACCESSORIES
SAFETY ENCODER (SET PLUS ACG5460)
The Encoder acts as a safety device both during gate closing and opening by reversing the
motor movement in case of impact detection.
The functioning of the motor with encoder is enabled by DIP 8 (ON - activated).
If the Encoder is faulty (lack of power, disconnected cables, broken or defective disk), the
gate will not move.
After the Encoder intervenes in opening or closing, the gate stops and then reverses for 1
second, entering alarm.
Note: The DL14 LED signals flashing that the encoder is operating correctly during gate
movement.
ENCODER ALARM - impact detection
The alarm status is signaled by the flasher which will be active for 1 minute, and by the BUZZER
with 5 tones every 5 s for 1 minute.
During or after the 1 minute alarm, the gate can start again by pressing any commmand button.
PHOTOCELLS (COM A+/PHOT 1, COM A+/PHOT 2)
NOTE: the transit through the photocells is signaled by a buzzer tone
DIP 4 OFF => if an obstacle is placed in range of the photocells when the gate is closed, the gate
does not open. During operation, photocells work when opening (by starting the
opening movement only after the obstacle is removed) and closing (by starting
the reverse movement only after the obstacle is removed).
DIP 4 ON => if an obstacle is placed in range of the photocells when the gate is closed and
the command to open is given, the gate opens (the photocells do not work while
opening). Photocells work only during closing (with reverse motion restored after
a second, even if they are still engaged).
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 A -, to shield the
photocells from external noise.
Be careful not to short circuit the system when the supply
phases are inverted!
MONITORING OF PHOTOCELLS (A+ TEST A-)
Connect the photocell transmitter to A+ TEST/A- and set DIP 7 to ON.
The monitoring consists of a functional test of the photocell run before every movement.
The gate movement is therefore permitted only if the photocells have passed the functional
test.
CAUTION: MONITORING OF THE PHOTOCELLS INPUTS (PHOTO 1/PHOTO 2) CAN BE ACTIVATED WITH
DIP 7 ON OR DEACTIVATED WITH DIP 7 OFF.
WARNING: If the AUTOTEST feature is enabled and only one photocell is connected, a jumper
must be made between the PHOT 1 and PHOT 2 terminals. If the jumper is not made,
the AUTOTEST fails and the gate will not move.
PHOTOCELL AUTOTEST ALARM (DIP 7 ON)
If the photocell fails the monitoring test, an alarm is displayed by the blinker lighting up and
gate movement is not allowed. Normal operation can be restored only by repairing the photocell
and pressing one of the controls.
EDGES (SAFETY STRIPS) (COM A+/EDGE 1, COM A+/EDGE 2)
If engaged when closing, EDGE 1 reverses the motion in opening. If edge remains engaged, it
doesn't permit the closing.
If engaged during opening, EDGE 2 reverses the motion in closing. If edge remains engaged, it
doesn't permit the opening.
If edges are not used, jump the terminals COM A+/EDGE1/EDGE2.
EDGE ALARM
Flasher and buzzer are activated with 2 tones every 5 s for one minute.
STOP BUTTON (COM A+/STOP)
The STOP button stops the gate during any operation.
If held when the gate is fully open (or partially when using the pedestrian control) automatic
closing is temporarily deactivated (if activated by the TCA trimmer and LED DL11 on). It is
therefore necessary to use a new command to make it close.
The automatic closing function is reactivated on the next cycle (if activated by the TCA trimmer
and LED DL11 ON).
FUNCTIONING IN HOLD-TO-RUN MODE WHEN THE SAFETY DEVICES ARE FAILING
If one of the safety edges fails or remains engaged for more than 5 s, or if one of the photocells
fails or remain engaded for more than 60 seconds, the OPEN, CLOSE, START and PED. commands
will work only in hold-to-run mode.
The signal that this mode has been activated is given by the blinking of the programming led
DL1.
The radio commands and the 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
functioning again so radio commands and the automatic closing will be enabled again.
Note 1: during this functioning in hold-to-run mode, in case of damage to the safety strips (or
photocells) the photocells (or safety strips) still work by interrupting the operation
in progress.
Note 2: the stop command is not to be considered a safety command that can be bypassed
in this mode. Therefore, when pressed or damaged, it will not allow any movement
of the gate.
The hold-to-run mode 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.
VISUAL AND SOUND ALARMS
BLINKER
Connect the flashing light to the blinker output, use flashing lights ACG7072 and bulbs of 40W
maximum.
PRE-BLINKING
DIP 5 OFF => motor and blinker start simultaneously.
DIP 5 ON => blinker starts 3 seconds before the motor.
BUZZER
24Vdc
It has the task to signal the intervention of the security, the anomalies and the memorization
and cancellation of the radio codes.
Term.
A -
SIGNAL - 24Vdc GATE OPEN WARNING LIGHT (COM A+/SIGNAL-)
Signals when the gate is open, partially open or not closed completely. It turns OFF only when
the gate is completely closed.
During opening, it flashes slowly.
When the gate is stationary or opened, it is permanently on.
During closing, it flashes quickly
N.B.: Max 3 W. If warning lights are in excess, the control panel processes will be endangered
with possible stop of all operations.
OPERATION AFTER BLACK-OUT
At the time of the blackout, gate status is saved in the memory.
When mains voltage is restored:
If the gate is located on the opening or closing limit switch, operating the control will close or
open the gate with the saved data.
If the gate is in intermediate position, operating the control will open the gate slowly until
it reaches the opening limit switch. After completing this first movement, the operator will
resume work at the set speed.
