cycle with the minimum force necessary. An excessive torque can reduce
the anti-crush safety. In the other case, an insufficient torque can impede
the manoeuvres. Consult the control unit's instruction manual.
8) ADJUSTMENT OF THE LIMITING DEVICES
The correct adjustment of the limiting devices is obtained by positioning
the end-of-stroke magnets correctly (FC1 and FC2 in Fig.1) with respect to
the axis of the front bracket. Loosen the fastening screws of the magnets
as described in the following paragraphs so that they can slide inside the
end-of-stroke track "B" (Fig.1).
8.1) Adjustment of the closing limiting devices (Fig.13):
Move the leaf to the desired closing point, loosen the two screws A and B
of the closing limiting device (FC1 in Fig.1) and move it so that the distance
between the screw B and the axis of the front racket is 14.8" (376 mm) ap-
proximately (as shown in fig. 13).
Perform a closing manoeuvre to make sure that the end-of-stroke limiting
device operates correctly; if the leaf stops too far before the desired closing
point, slightly move the limiting device towards the end of the stem; if, on the
contrary, the leaf hits the ground closing stopping device and the actuator
reverses its moving direction, move the end-of-stroke limiting device slightly
towards the actuator body. After identifying the correct position of the limiting
device , fix it using the two screws A and B.
8.2) Adjustment of the opening limiting devices (Fig.14):
Move the leaf to the desired opening position, loosen the two screws C
and D of the opening limiting device (FC2 in Fig.1) and move it so that the
distance between the screw D and the axis of the front bracket is 14.8" (376
mm) approximately (as shown in fig. 13).
Perform an opening manoeuvre to make sure that the end-of-stroke limiting
device operates correctly; if the leaf stops too far before the desired opening
point, slightly move the limiting device towards the actuator body; if, on the
contrary, the leaf hits the ground closing stopping device and the actuator
reverses its moving direction, move the end-of-stroke limiting device slightly
towards the end of the stem. After identifying the correct position of the limit-
ing device , fix it using the two screws C and D.
N.B. When using the LIBRA UL R control board, remember to slightly
anticipate the intervention of the limiting devices because the stem, after
intercepting the limiting devices, continues to move for a further 0.5"/1" (1/2
cm). (100 ms). In this way a perfect strike of the leaves against the ground
supports is guaranteed.
9) MANUAL OPENING
All controllers feature a key release mechanism. After lifting the lock cover
(fig.15), insert the release key supplied and turn it clockwise by 90°.
Push the leaf manually to open the gate. To reset the motorised operation,
turn the key in the opposite direction and refit the cover.
10) COVERS
An optional stem cover (mod.CPH) is available on request in order to pro-
tect the stem and to improve the appearance of the actuator. The actuator
equipped with the stem cover mod. CPH looks like in fig.17.
The stem cover is mounted on the right or left actuator by simply invert-
ing the position of the cover and making sure that the water drain outlet is
directed downwards.
11) CHECKING THE AUTOMATION
Before considering the automation completely operational, the following
checks must be made with great care:
• Check that all the components are firmly anchored.
• Control all the safeties work properly (i.e. photocells, pneumatic skirt, etc.).
• Check the emergency manoeuvre control.
• Check the opening and closing manoeuvres using the controls.
• Check the control unit's electronic logic in normal (or customised) opera-
tion.
12) USE OF THE AUTOMATION
Since the automation may be remote controlled either by radio or a Start
button, it is essential that all safeties are checked frequently.
Any malfunction should be corrected immediately by a qualified specialist.
Keep children at a safe distance from the field of action of the automation.
13) THE CONTROLS
With the automation the gate has a power driven opening and closing. The
controls can come in various forms (i.e. manual, remote controlled, limited
access by magnetic badge, etc.) depending on needs and installation
characteristics. For details on the various command systems, consult the
specific instruction booklets.
Anyone using the automation must be instructed in its operation and controls.
INSTALLATION MANUAL
14) MAINTENANCE
When carrying out maintenance operation on the controller, disconnect
it from the mains power supply. The actuator does not require periodical
maintenance operations.
• Check the safety devices of the gate and automation.
• Periodically check the pushing force and correct the value of the electric
torque in the control board if necessary.
• In case of unsolved operation failures, disconnect the unit from the
mains power supply and ask for the intervention of qualified personnel
(installer).
When the unit is out of order, activate the manual release to perform
manual opening and closing manoeuvres.
15) NOISE
The aerial noise produced by the gearmotor under normal operating condi-
tions is constant and does not exceed 70dB(A).
16) SCRAPPING
Materials must be disposed of in conformity with the current regulations.
In case of scrapping, the automation devices do not entail any particular
risks or danger. In case of recovered materials, these should be sorted out
by type (electrical components, copper, aluminium, plastic etc.).
17) DISMANTLING
When the automation system is disassembled to be reassembled on another
site, proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the power supply and the entire electrical installation.
• Remove the gearmotor from its fixing base.
• Disassemble the control panel, if separate, and all installation compo-
nents.
• In the case where some of the components cannot be removed or are
damaged, they must be replaced.
18) TROUBLES AND SOLUTIONS
18.1) Incorrect operation of gearmotor
a) Check for the presence of power supply to the gearmotor using a suitable
instrument after opening or closing commands have been given.
b) If the moving direction of the leaf is opposite to the right one, invert the
motor running connections (motor +green/ motor - black).
c) Should the gate stop and hit the ground stopping device and the actuator
reverse its moving direction, it means that the limiting devices have not
been adjusted correctly. If this happens on the opening stopping device,
move the opening limiting device towards the hinge of the gate until the
correct position is found(see adjustment of the limiting devices).
If, on the contrary, this happens on the closing stopping device, move the
closing limiting device towards the stem plug until the correct position is
found (see adjustment of the limiting devices).
18.2) Incorrect operation of the electrical accessories
All control and safety devices can cause, in case of failure, malfunctioning
or stoppage of the automation.
To identify the failure, it is advised to disconnect all the devices of the auto-
mation one by one until the one causing the problem is found.
After fixing or replacing the defective device, reset all the devices previously
disconnected. Refer to the relevant instruction manual for all the devices
installed on the automation.
WARNINGS
The installation of the two supplied placards is required in the area of the
gate and in a location where they are clearly visible. (Fig.12).
