Before using the automation for the first time, ask the installer to
explain the origin of residual risks and devote a few minutes to reading
this user instruction and warning manual given to you by the installer.
Keep the manual for reference when in doubt and pass it on to new
owners of the automation.
IMPORTANT! – Your automation is a machine that performs
your commands faithfully; negligent or improper use may con-
stitute a hazard.
– Never activate automation controls if persons, animals or
objects are present in the operating range.
– NEVER touch parts of the automation while the gate or door is
moving!
– Photocells are not safety devices but safety aids. They are
constructed with very reliable technology but in extreme situ-
ations they may malfunction or even break. In some cases this
malfunction may not be immediately evident. For this reason,
observe the following warnings when using the automation:
- Pass through the gate or door only when it is completely
open and the leafs have stopped moving.
- NEVER pass through while the gate or door is closing!
- Periodically check correct operation of the photocells.
• Children: an automation system guarantees a high level of safety,
using a special detection system to prevent movement in the presence
of persons or objects. Nonetheless, it is advisable to ensure that chil-
dren do not play in the vicinity of the automation. To prevent the risk of
accidental activation, do not leave the remote controls within the reach
of children It is not a game!
• The product should not be used by children or people with impaired
physical, sensorial or mental capacities or who have not received ade-
quate training in the safe use of the product.
• Malfunctions: if the automation is seen to perform abnormally,
disconnect the electrical power supply from the system and manu-
ally release the gearmotor (see instruction manual) to operate the gate
manually. Never attempt to perform repairs; contact your local installer
for assistance.
• Never modify the system or the control unit programming and
adjustment parameters: this is the responsibility of the installer.
• Power supply failure or absence: while waiting for the installer
or the electrical power supply to return, the automation can still be
used even if the system is not equipped with a buffer battery: manually
release the gearmotor (see instruction manual) and move the gate leaf
manually as required.
• Safety devices disabled: the automation can be operated even
when a safety device does not work correctly or is out of use. The gate
can be controlled in the "hold-to-run" mode. Proceed as follows:
01. Send a command to operate the gate using a transmitter or a key
selector, etc. If everything operates correctly, the gate will move
normally, otherwise proceed as follows;
02. Within 3 seconds, activate the control again and keep it activated;
03. After approximately 2 seconds, the gate will perform the required
movement in "hold-to-run"; mode; i.e. the gate will continue to
move only as long as the control is activated.
IMPORTANT! – If the safety devices are out of use, it is advis-
able to have them repaired as quickly as possible by a qualified
technician.
• Testing, periodic maintenance and any repairs must be documented
by the person performing the operations and the relevant documents
must be kept by the system owner. The only operations that can be
VI
Instructions and warnings for the user
performed by the user are to clean the photocell lenses (use a soft
and slightly damp cloth) and remove any leaves or stones that may
obstruct the automation. Important – To prevent the door from being
activated accidentally, before proceeding release the automation man-
ually (as described in the relevant manual).
• Maintenance: Regular maintenance (at least every 6 months) is
needed to keep the level of safety constant and to ensure the maxi-
mum durability of the entire automation. Checks, maintenance and
repairs must be performed exclusively by qualified personnel.
• Disposal: At the end of the automation's lifetime, ensure that it is
disposed by qualified personnel and that the materials are recycled or
scrapped according to current local standards.
• If the automation has been blocked by a "Block automation"
command: after sending a command, the gate does not move and
the flashing light emits 9 short flashes.
