1) Warnings:
This manual has been especially written for use by
qualified fitters. No information given in this manual can
be considered as being of interest to end users!
This manual refers to IB only and cannot be used for dif-
ferent products.
• The installation, testing and commissioning of door and gate
automation systems must be performed by qualified and experi-
enced personnel.
• The persons responsible for installation must establish which tests
are to be conducted based on the risks involved, and verify the
compliance of the system with applicable regulations, legislation
and standards.
2) Product description and intended use
Unit IB is an interface that makes it possible to connect detectors with
bluebus technology (MOFB and MOFOB photocells) to control units
with inputs for conventional NC type contacts.
The use of the IB unit with MOFB and MOFOB photocells makes it
possible to create detectors (D type to standard 12453) that can be
used with door and gate automation systems. Use of the fototest
function makes it possible to attain safety category 2 in compliance
with EN 954-1.
3) Installation
!
Warning: the unit must be installed with the power sup-
ply disconnected.
Warning: before installing the unit carry out risk analysis
to calculate the number of detectors required in relation
to the specific automation system.

3.1) "Single-leaf" type systems
In "single-leaf" type systems the photocells can be positioned in the same way as for Figura 1 sliding gates or as for Figura 2 sectional doors.

The figures show the maximum number of photocells possible, although a smaller number may be installed; during programming unit IB will
automatically recognise the devices that are effectively connected.
For unit IB to identify photocells connected to bluebus each must be assigned an address in accordance with its specific function in the sys-
tem. The addressing operation is performed by setting up the jumpers as specified in table 2 for each TX / RX pair.

• Before starting to install the product read all the instructions in this
manual thoroughly: improper use of the product or erroneous con-
nections could reduce safety levels or cause malfunctions.
• Before starting the installation procedure check the suitability of
the product for the intended application; use special care to check
that the values given in the "Technical Specifications" chapter are
compatible with the application, otherwise unit IB cannot be used.
Bluebus technology is easy to install because just two wires (no
polarity) are needed to connect all the devices in parallel; also, it
solves inter-detector interference problems by means of an auto-
matic synchronism system.
Device IB can be used in various types of automation system for
doors and gates, with installation options potentially varying in rela-
tion to the specific system; refer to table 1 for installation and pro-
gramming.
