Key Automation S.r.l. produces systems for the au-
tomation of gates, garage doors, automatic doors,
shutters, parking lots and road barriers. However,
Key Automation is not the manufacturer of your
automation system, which is rather the result of a
process of analysis, evaluation, selection of ma-
terials, and installation performed by your own in-
staller. Each automated system is unique and only
your installer has the experience and professional-
ism required to create a system to suit your needs,
safe and reliable over time, and carried out in a
workmanlike manner, i.e. compliant with the cur-
rent regulations. Even if your automation system
meets the security level required by law, this does
not exclude the existence of "residual risks", i.e.
the possibility that it may cause dangerous situa-
tions, usually as a result of improper or irresponsi-
ble use; for this reason we would like to give you
some suggestions:
• Halo is an irreversible electromechanical gear-
motor suitable for automating overhead doors up
to 17m
and sectional doors up to 19m
2
equipped with an encoder, a control unit and an
integrated 4-channel receiver. The rail is pre-as-
sembled with a belt, in one piece or 3 pieces.
A special aluminium rail, powder coated and with
integrated LEDs, allows for garage lighting both
during movement and at any other time. The spe-
cial flat design of the motor housing also makes it
possible to install it less invasively near the door
cross beam or the spring holder shaft.
• Drive is not to be used with doors having open-
ings exceeding 50mm in diameter or having edges
or protruding parts a person could grip or stand on.
• After installation, ensure that the mechanism is
properly adjusted and that the drive reverses or
the object can be freed when the door contacts a
50mm high object placed on the floor (for drives
incorporating an entrapment protection system de-
pending on contact with the bottom edge of the
door);
• After installation, ensure that parts of the door do
not extend over public footpaths or roads;
• Before using the automation for the first time, ask
the installer to explain the origin of residual risks
(Fig.1).
• Keep this manual for future use and deliver it to
any new owner of the automation.
• In the case of detection of an obstacle during its
closing travel, the garage door reverses its travel
direction, releasing the obstacle until it opens com-
pletely;
• Inappropriate or improper use of the automa-
tion can make it dangerous: do not command the
movement of the automation if people, animals or
things are in its range.
• Children: This appliance can be used by children
aged from 8 years and above and persons with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities
or lack of experience and knowledge if they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the appliance in a safe way and understand
the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made
by children without supervision.
• Malfunctions: As soon as you notice any mal-
functions, disconnect the system from the power
supply and operate the manual release. Do not
. Halo is
attempt any repairs by yourself, but require the as-
2
sistance of your installer: meanwhile, the system
can operate like a non-automated opening device
after releasing the motor reducer with the release
key supplied with the system.
Frequently examine the installation, in particular
check cables, springs and mountings for signs of
wear, damage or imbalance. Do not use if repair
or adjustment is needed since a fault in the instal-
lation or an incorrectly balanced door may cause
injury.
Each month check that the drive reverses or the
object can be freed when the door contacts a
50mm high object placed on the floor (for drives
incorporating an entrapment protection system de-
pending on contact with the bottom edge of the
door).
WARNING: Automatic door – The door may ope-
rate unexpectedly, therefore do not allow anything
to stay in the path of the door.
• In case of failures or power failures: While await-
ing the arrival of your installer or the restore of the
electricity, if the system is not equipped with back-
up batteries, the automation can be operated as
