GENERAL WARNINGS
>>> Attention! – Important safety instructions. Follow all instruc-
tions as improper installation may cause serious damage.
>>> Attention! – Important safety instructions. It is important for
you to comply with these instructions for your own and other
people's safety. Keep these instructions.
• Before commencing the installation, check the "Technical character-
istics" (in this manual), in particular whether this product is suitable
for automating your guided part. If it is not suitable, DO NOT contin-
ue with the installation.
• The product cannot be used before it has been commissioned as
specified in the chapter on "Testing and commissioning".
>>> Attention! – According to the most recent European legisla-
tion, the implementation of an automation system must com-
ply with the harmonised standards provided by the Machinery
Directive in force, which enables declaration of the presumed
conformity of the automation. Taking this into account, all op-
erations regarding connection to the electricity grid, as well
as product testing, commissioning and maintenance, must be
performed exclusively by a qualified and skilled technician!
• Before proceeding with the installation of the product, check that all
the materials are in good working order and suited to the intended
applications.
• This product is not intended to be used by persons (including chil-
dren) whose physical, sensory or mental capacities are reduced, or
who lack the necessary experience or skill.
• Children must not play with the appliance.
• Do not allow children to play with the fixed control devices of the
product. Keep the remote controls away from children.
>>> Attention! – In order to avoid any danger from inadvertent
resetting of the thermal cut-off device, this appliance must
not be powered through an external switching device, such
as a timer, or connected to a supply that is regularly powered
or switched off by the circuit.
• Provide a disconnection device (not supplied) in the plant's power
supply grid, with a contact opening distance permitting complete
disconnection under the conditions dictated by overvoltage catego-
ry III.
• Handle the product with care during installation, taking care to avoid
crushing, denting or dropping it, or allowing contact with liquids of
any kind. Keep the product away from sources of heat and naked
flames. Failure to observe the above can damage the product, and
increase the risk of danger or malfunction. Should this happen, stop
installation immediately and contact Customer Service.
• The manufacturer assumes no liability for damage to property, items
or persons resulting from non-compliance with the assembly in-
structions. In such cases the warranty for material defects is exclud-
ed.
• The weighted sound pressure level of the emission A is lower than
70 dB(A).
• Cleaning and maintenance to be carried out by the user must not be
carried out by unsupervised children.
• Before working on the system (maintenance, cleaning), always dis-
connect the product from the mains power supply.
• Check the system periodically, in particular all cables, springs and
supports to detect possible imbalances, signs of wear or damage.
Do not use, if repairs or adjustments are necessary, since installation
failure or an incorrectly balanced automation may cause injury.
• The packing materials of the product must be disposed of in compli-
ance with local regulations.
• When operating a biased-off switch, make sure that other persons
are kept away.
• When operating the gate, keep an eye on the automated mecha-
nism and keep all bystanders at a safe distance until the movement
has been completed.
• Do not operate the product if anyone is working nearby; disconnect
its power supply before permitting such work to be done.
• If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufac-
turer or by an appointed servicing company or similarly qualified per-
son in order to prevent any form of risk.
INSTALLATION WARNINGS
• Prior to installing the drive motor, check that all mechanical compo-
nents are in good working order and properly balanced, and that the
automation moves correctly.
• If the gate or door being automated has a pedestrian gate, then the
system must include a control device that will inhibit the operation of
the motor when the pedestrian gate is open.
• Make sure that the control devices are kept far from moving parts
but nonetheless in a visible position. Unless a selector is used, the
control devices must be installed at a height of at least 1.5 m and
must not be accessible.
• That windows, having a gap exceeding 200 mm when open, are to
be closed using a biased-off switch if the opening movement is con-
trolled by a fire-sensing system.
• Ensure that entrapment between the driven part and the surround-
ing fixed parts due to the opening movement of the driven part is
avoided.
• Permanently fix the label concerning the manual release adjacent to
its actuating member.
• After installing the drive motor, make sure that the mechanism, pro-
tective system and all manual manoeuvres operate properly.
GENERAL WARNINGS - Battery-operated devices
• The device must be disconnected from the power supply when re-
moving the batteries.
• The batteries must be removed from the device prior to its disposal.
• The batteries must be safely disposed of.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND
INTENDED USE
MC824L is an electronic control unit for the automation of swing gates. IM-
PORTANT! – Any other use than as specified herein or in environmental
conditions other than as stated in this manual is to be considered im-
proper and is strictly prohibited!
The control unit is ready for connection to devices belonging to the Opera sys-
tem, the Bluebus system and the Solemyo solar energy supply system.
If powered from the mains, it can house a buffer battery (model PS324, optional
accessory), which ensures that the automation can perform a number of ma-
noeuvres for several hours in the event of a power failure.
Other available accessories include the dedicated receivers with "SM" fitting
(SMXI, OXI, etc.).

nents, suitability of the selected model and conditions of the intended installa-
tion environment:
• Ensure that all material used is in perfect condition and suitable for use. •
Ensure that all conditions of use remain within the limits of product applica-
tion (paragraph 2.2) and within the limit values stated in the "Product technical
specifications". • Ensure that the selected installation environment is compat-
ible with the overall dimensions of the product (fig. 1). • Ensure that the select-
ed surfaces for product installation are solid and guarantee a stable fixture. •
Make sure that the fixing zone is not subject to flooding. If necessary, mount the
product raised from the ground. • Ensure that the space around the product
