INSTALLATION
Installation of control unit and safety devices must be carried
out with power disconnected.
POWER SUPPLY
The control unit must be fed by a 230V 50Hz (120V - 50/60Hz
for the model City1-120V) electric line, protected by a
differential magnetothermal switch complying with the law
provisions in force.
Connect power supply cables to terminals 30 and 31 of City1
control unit.
MOTORS
City1 control unit can control one or two alternate current
asynchronous motors. If the control unit needs to control one
motor only, the latter must be connected to terminals of
motor 1.
Connect motor 1 cables as follows:
• opening cable to terminal 27
• closing cable to terminal 29
• common return cable to terminal 28
Connect motor 2 (if any) cables as follows:
• opening cable to terminal 24
• closing cable to terminal 26
• common return cable to terminal 25
CONTROL OF THE CORRECT ORDER OF CLOSING
LEAVES
If the leaves of the gate overlap during the closing phase, it is
necessary to connect the motor of the leaves that must start
first at the motor 1 terminals, and to arrange the delays
(parameters r.AP and r.Ch) so that collision is avoided.
If the control unit detects a wrong overlap order (leaf 1 gets to
the closing position before leaf 2), the gate is opened a little
again so that it can close correctly.
If the leaves do not overlap (e.g. in a double swing gate) set to
zero the opening door delay parameter in order to disable the
control of the right closing order.
WARNING:
• In case it has not yet fitted, a start capacitor for each motor
is required; connect the start capacitor for motor 1 between
terminals 27 and 29 and start capacitor for motor 2 (if any)
between terminals 24 and 26.
• In case motor 2 is not connected, set menu tAP2 to zero.
WARNING (USING HYDRAULIC MOTORS):
• If using hydraulic motors, the following function could not
work properly: Soft start, Slowing down and Obstacle sensor.
In this case, such functions should be disabled from menu.
• Read carefully the working times self-learning procedure,
described in the paragraph "QUICK CONFIGURATION", paying
particular attention to the points where the procedure to be
followed in case of disabled obstacle sensor is described.
BLINKER
City1 control unit provides for a 230V 40W (120V – 40W for
model City1-120V) blinker equipped with intermittence inside.
Connect blinker cables to terminals 22 and 23 of the control
unit.
PHOTOCELLS
The control unit considers two kinds of photocells, depending
on the terminal to which they are connected:
• Photocell 1: that is to say, photocells installed on the gate
inner side, which are active both during the opening and the
closing phase. When photocells 1 operate, the control unit
stops the doors; as soon as the photocell beam is free, the
control unit will open the gate completely.
• Photocell 2: that is to say, photocells installed on the
external gate side and which are active during the closing
phase only. When photocells 2 operate, the control unit
opens the gate immediately, without waiting for release.
City1 control unit supplies a 24VAC power supply to photocells
and it can perform a photocell operation test before starting
the gate opening phase. Photocell power terminals are
protected by an electronic fuse that stops current in case of
overload.
• Connect power supply cables of photocells transmitter
between terminals 19 and 18 of the control unit.
• Connect power supply cables of photocells receiver between
terminals 17 and 18 of the control unit.
• Connect receiver output of photocells 1 between terminals 7
and 11 of the control unit and receiver output of photocells
2 between terminals 8 and 11 of the control unit.
Use outputs having normally closed contact.
