quent amendments.
• Disconnect the electrical power supply before carrying out any work on
the installation. Also disconnect any buffer batteries, if fitted.
• Fit an omnipolar or magnetothermal switch on the mains power supply,
having a contact opening distance equal to or greater than 3,5 mm.
• Check that a differential switch with a 0.03A threshold is fitted just before
the power supply mains.
• Check that earthing is carried out correctly: connect all metal parts for closure
(doors, gates etc.) and all system components provided with an earth terminal.
• Fit all the safety devices (photocells, electric edges etc.) which are needed
to protect the area from any danger caused by squashing, conveying and
shearing, according to and in compliance with the applicable directives
and technical standards.
• Position at least one luminous signal indication device (blinker) where it
can be easily seen, and fix a Warning sign to the structure.
• The Company declines all responsibility with respect to the automation safety
and correct operation when other manufacturers' components are used.
• Only use original parts for any maintenance or repair operation.
• Do not modify the automation components, unless explicitly authorised
by the company.
• Instruct the product user about the control systems provided and the
manual opening operation in case of emergency.
• Do not allow persons or children to remain in the automation operation
area.
• Keep radio control or other control devices out of children's reach, in
order to avoid unintentional automation activation.
• The user must avoid any attempt to carry out work or repair on the automation
system, and always request the assistance of qualified personnel.
• Anything which is not expressly provided for in the present instructions,
is not allowed.
• Installation must be carried out using the safety devices and controls
prescribed by the EN 12978 Standard.

1) GENERAL OUTLINE

The ALTAIR control panel is suitable for swing gates. It is supplied by the
manufacturer with standard functional settings. Any alteration must be set by
means of the incorporated display programmer or by means of UNIPRO and
UNIRADIO. The Control unit completely supports the EELINK protocol.
The most significant innovative characteristics of the Altair control panel are:
- management of two motors with electronic torque setting.
- management of on-board receiver, according to the new type of radio-
control cloning.
- presetting for operation with local or centralised controls via wire.
INSTALLATION MANUAL
Its main characteristics are:
- Motor force limitation: to be set electronically
- Manoeuvre limit switch: with operation time limitation, operation time to
be set.
- Safety inputs: Stop, photocells
- Control inputs: Start, pedestrian
- Radio receiver: 433.92 MHz rolling-code or fixed code
- Maximum numbers of radio control devices to be managed: 63
- Centralised controls with other controllers: presetting for serial protocol
with an external accessory.

4) TERMINAL BOARD CONNECTIONS (Fig.3)
WARNING - During wiring and installation operations, refer to the current
standards and to principles of good technical practice.
Wires powered at different voltages must be physically separated, or suitably
insulated with at least 1 mm extra insulation. The wires must be clamped by
an extra fastener near the terminals, for example by bands.
WARNING! For connection to the mains, use a multipolar cable with a
minimum of 3x1.5mm
sly mentioned regulations. For example, if the cable is out side (in the
open), it has to be at least equal to H07RN-F, but if it is on the inside
(or outside but placed in a plastic cable cannel) it has to be or at least
egual to H05VV-F with section 3x1.5mm

N.B. The board is provided with a terminal board which can be pulled out
for easier maintenance or replacement. The board is supplied with a series
of pre-wired jumpers to facilitate the installer's work.
The jumpers relate to the following terminals: 17-18 and 17-19. If the above-
mentioned terminals are in use, remove their respective jumpers.
5) MOTOR MOVEMENT CONTROL PARAMETERS
The functional parameters can be changed by means of the incorporated
display programmer or by means of UNIPRO. Here is an explanation of
each option, followed by the setting procedure.
Meaning of the options:
- Operation time: sets the time for the opening and closing manoeuvres.
- Automatic Closing Time (TCA): sets the dwell time with the gate open,
following which the gate is closed again if the TCA function is active.
