IMPORTANT: detection of an obstacle always causes a reversal of the
direction of movement.
MOTOR ENCODER:
The control unit allows connection of an Encoder. The use of Encoders
facilitates the work of the control unit in the Obstacles Detection function
and ensures enhanced precision during execution of arm movements.
FLASHING LIGHT:
The control unit features an output to control a 24 Vdc 25W max flashing
light. Operation of the flashing light depends on the movement of the motor
and automatic closing, which, if selected, enables the flashing light also
during the pause time.
INDICATOR LIGHT:
The control unit allows a 24 Vdc indicator light to be connected to display
the status of the automation system.
Indicator light off: barrier closed
Indicator light on: barrier open
Indicator light slow blinking: opening movement; rapid blinking: closing
movement.
OPERATION WITH TIMER:
The control unit allows a timer to be connected in place of the open – close
pushbutton.
E.g.: at 08.00 am the timer closes the contact and the control unit
commands an opening movement; at 06.00 pm the timer opens the
contact and the control unit commands a closing movement. From 08.00
am – 06.00 pm at the end of the opening cycle the control unit disables the
flashing light, automatic closing and the remotes.
BUFFER BATTERY:
The control unit is equipped with a built-in 27.4 Vdc battery charger to
keep a full charge on the two 12V batteries connected in series. The
batteries allow the barrier to perform several complete open/close cycles
in emergency mode. The Flashing Light and LED strip output will operate
only for the first 4 seconds of the movement when mains power is absent.
CHECKING THE MOTOR DIRECTION OF RUN
AND MASTER/SLAVE SELECTION
Important Note: make sure the settings of dip-switch SW1 are
changed with the control unit off and then repeat the control unit
programming procedure.
The electronic control unit is equipped with a Dip Switch SW1, which can
be used to change the direction of run of the connected motor without
having to physically alter the electrical connections (DIP 1). In addition, again
using (DIP 2) of Dip Switch SW1, in the case of synchronized operation of
two barriers the control unit can be used to select which one acts as Master
and which one acts as Slave.
Important Note:
• In Master/Slave applications synchronised opening of the barrier is
available using the PUL input or exclusively the master barrier using the
PED input.
• In the Slave control unit all the control and safety inputs (except the
Emergency stop input) are automatically disabled because they are
managed by the control unit configured as the Master.

10.4 PROGRAMMING:
SEL key: selects the type of function to store; the selection is indicated by
blinking of the LED.
Press the key repeatedly to go to the required function. The selection
remains active for 10 seconds shown by blinking of the LED; when this
interval elapses the control unit returns to the original state.

SET key: programs the information in accordance with the function type
preselected with the SEL key.
IMPORTANT: The SET key function can be replaced by the remote if
programmed beforehand (CODE LED on).

The control unit is factory set to allow selection of several important functions.

1. CODE (Remote control code):
Up to 120 remotes with different codes of either the fixed or rolling code
type can be saved on the control unit.
Programming.
The transmission code is programmed as follows: use the SEL key to
select blinking LED L1 and transmit the chosen code with the required
remote within 10 seconds; LED L1 will remain steady on to indicate that
programming has been completed.
If all 120 codes have been saved, repeating the programming operation will
cause all the programming LEDs to start blinking to signal that no further
codes can be saved.
Remote controls reset.
To delete all the previously saved remotes from the receiver, use SEL to
select LED L1, then press SET and hold it pressed for > 5 s. At the end
of this interval the LED will switch off for two seconds to confirm that the
procedure has been completed successfully.
Rule of the first saved Remote control:
When programming remotes the following rule is applied: if the first remote
to be saved is a rolling code type, the receiver will subsequently accept only
rolling code remotes, thus providing enhanced anti-intrusion security; if the
first remote to be saved is a fixed code type, the receiver will subsequently
accept both fixed code remotes and rolling code remotes.
WARNING: Whenever you reset the remotes on the receiver, all the saved
remotes will be deleted and also the rule of the first saved remote control
will be reset to default.
2. MOTOR TIME (Barrier working time programming):
The control unit is factory set with a standard work profile for a barrier with
a 5 m arm. If the Operator working time and slowing stages duration must
be changed, reprogramming must be performed with the barrier closed
as follows: use the SEL key to select blinking LED L2 and then press the
SET key momentarily; the Operator will start an Opening cycle; when the
required slowdown starting point is reached, press the SET key again;
LED L2 will start blinking more slowly and the Operator will decelerate; on
reaching the required position press SET to terminate the Opening cycle.
When Opening cycle time programming is completed, the Operator restarts
immediately in the Closing cycle: repeat the operations described above for
the Closing cycle.
WARNING: The barrier working time function must be set with sensitivity
setting higher than 50% and at reduced speed.
3. PAUSE TIME (Automatic closing time programming 4 min. max.):
The control unit is factory set with automatic closing disabled. If you wish
SW1
to enable automatic closing proceed as follows: use the SEL key to select
blinking LED L3 and press the SET key momentarily; now wait for a time
ON
equivalent to the required time; press the SET key again momentarily
and at the same time the automatic closing time will be saved and LED
L3 will remain steady on. If you wish to restore the initial condition (no

automatic closing) select blinking LED L3 and then press the SET key twice
consecutively in an interval of 2 seconds. The LED will switch off and the

operation will be completed.
4. FORCE OPEN (Selecting the Force profile in the Normal
The control unit allows you to define different operator Force profiles during
the Normal operating cycle in the Opening movement. In the factory set
configuration, operator Force during opening is set at the maximum level
"MAX" (i.e. identical to the setting selected using the SPEED trimmer with
LED L4 off); if you wish to change the profile to a medium level value "MED",
proceed as follows: use the SEL key to select blinking LED L4 and press the
SET key; at the same time LED L4 becomes steady on and programming
