5.6 - SAFETY EDGES
The control unit considers two kinds of safety edges, depending
on the terminal to which they are connected:
Type 1 (fixed)
They are mounted on walls or on other fixed obstacles that are
approached by the gate doors during the opening phase.
When type 1 safety edges operate during the gate opening phase,
the control unit will close the doors for 3 seconds, then it stands
still; when type 1 safety edges operate during the gate closing
phase, the control unit will stand still immediately.
The direction of the gate at next command of START or
PEDESTRIAN START depends upon the parameter STOP (it inverts
or continues the motion).
If the input STOP is disabled, the command makes the motion
continue in the same direction. If the STOP input is disabled, the
control restarts motion in the same direction it was travelling prior
to the intervention of the edge.
Type 2 (mobile)
They are mounted to the door ends.
When type 2 safety edges operate during the gate opening phase,
the control unit will stand still immediately; when type 2 safety
edges operate during the gate closing, the control unit will open
the doors for 3 seconds, then it will stand still.
The direction of the gate at next command of START or
PEDESTRIAN START depends upon the parameter STOP (it inverts
or continues the motion). If the input STOP is disabled, the
command makes the motion continue in the same direction.
If the STOP input is disabled, the control restarts motion in the
same direction it was travelling prior to the intervention of the
edge.
Both the input can manage the classic safety edge with N.C.
contact and the conductive rubber safety edge with 8,2 kohm
nominal resistance.
C
Change the value of parameters
depending on the type of installed facet for cables.
• Connect type 1 safety edges cables between terminals
L9 and L11
C
To activate the function, change the settings of
CoS1
parameter
• Connect type 2 safety edges cables between terminals
L10 and L11
C
To activate the function, change the settings of
CoS2

In order to meet the requirements of the EN12978 rules, it is
necessary to install safety edges controlled by a control unit
continuously checking the proper working. If using control units
suited to the test by power outage, connect the power supply
cables of the control unit between terminals Z3 and Z2 of the
control unit.
Otherwise, connect them between terminals Z1 and Z2.

WARNING:
• Make use of safety edges having outputs with normally close
contact.
• Outputs of same kind safety edges must be connected in
series.
5.7 - LIMIT SWITCHES
The CITY1-EVO unit can control the gate run through a limit
switches.
The limit swiches can be used for indicating the limits of the run
or to indicate the start of the slowdown point.
C
To activate the function and select the type of operation
(limits of run/start of slowdown) change the settings of the
FC.En
parameter.
Connect the limit switch to the unit terminal box as follows:
• opening limit switch in door 1 between terminal E1 and E5
• closing limit switch in door 1 between terminal E2 and E5
FCA1
• opening limit switch in door 2 between terminal E3 and E5
• closing limit switch in door 2 between terminal E4 and E5
