Battery Powered Operation; Remote Control - Cardin Elettronica 710/EL3424 Mode D'emploi

TIME PROGRAMMING
Programming the travel distance can be carried out even with the boom
open as long as it is blocked. You can only enter the programming mode
when the safety devices TB, FTCI and CSP are at rest. Programming
must be carried out with the programmer powered up at 230Vac.
1) Press and hold down P3 PROG for 4 seconds: "PAUSE" will appear
on the display:
2) Press P3 PROG: the indication "PAUSE" will flash and the pause
time count will start.
3) Wait for the desired pause time to pass.
4) Press P3 PROG : the time count will stop and the automatic travel
distance programming procedure will start ("Auto" will appear on the
display).
5) A low speed closing manoeuvre will be carried out until the boom
reaches the completely close position.
6) After 0.5 seconds the barrier will open at normal speed, wait for the
pause time to elapse and then close again. This completes the auto-
matic programming cycle and the control unit saves the parameters
and exits the programming mode.
From this moment onwards the control unit is in its normal function
mode.
SPEED CONTROL
The speed of the motor is controlled, with rapid start up and decelera-
tion at the end of the opening/closing manoeuvre. "FRA" in the opening
direction and "FRC" in the closing direction cause a change in velocity
while the activation of the travel limits FCA/FCC block the motor (com-
pletely open/closed position).
It is therefore important that the travel limits mounted on the barrier are
maintained in good working order and that they are carefully set if they
need to be replaced. The choice of the type of boom being used "3"
metres or "4" metres can be selected by the switch "S1" on the circuit
board.
Attention! The correct setting of the switch "S1" is fundamental
for the correct working order of the appliance and for the validity of
the guarantee supplied by the constructor.
To this end the control unit carries out a "correct operation control"
which indicates eventual anomalies by activating the klaxon (KLX)
if the boom is completely open and lights up the LED "L2" during
deceleration.
If the control unit is running off battery power deceleration is excluded
and the maximum velocity may less than the normal velocity when you
are using the mains supply.
When you move the boom manually or when you switch on the
appliance without travel limits active the programmer activates
the position identification mode: the movement of the boom will
be slow until it crosses a travel limit because it is only at this
point that the programmer can reliably identify the position of the
boom and consequently activate the normal operating speed.
ADJUSTING THE TRAVEL LIMITS
The mechanical deceleration and the manoeuvre end travel limits are
factory set for the best use of the barrier; if you are faced with the simul-
taneous activation of a pair of travel limits (e.g. the deceleration travel
limits or the manoeuvre end travel limits, the motor will block and the
programmer will display an error:
• "StOP t": in the case of a manoeuvre end travel limit alarm (FCA/FCC)
• "StOP r": in the case of a deceleration travel limit alarm (FRA/FRC)
The warning light is activated for 3 seconds and is repeated every 6
seconds; once normal operating conditions have been restored the
programmer will be reset. If the boom isn't completely closed a 10-
second pre-flashing period will pass and then the boom will automati-
cally close.
If maintenance has to be carried out to the deceleration travel limits ("O"
and "N" fig.8), make sure they are released before the boom arrives at
the completely closed position: otherwise the boom will invert its travel
direction.
Adjust the deceleration travel limit remembering that the programmer
will activate the motor during the deceleration stage for a maximum of
3 seconds.

BATTERY POWERED OPERATION

In case of blackouts the two 12dc lead batteries (wired in series) guar-
antee operation.
Battery powered operation is indicated by the segments lighting up in
rotation on the display when the boom is completely closed. When the
battery is charged appears; When the battery is discharging appears.
If the batteries are completely flat a "C" will appear and the boom will
block in the completely open position until the mains supply comes
back on line, after which the unit will pre-flash for 10 seconds and then
close automatically. To increase the battery life time the external loads
(e.g. photoelectric cells) will be cut off at binding posts 17-18 (CTRL
24V) thus limiting power consumption; this means that the following will
happen each time a command is received:
• The control unit sends power to the photocells and waits for a long
enough time to allow them to stabilise (about 0,6 seconds);
• Evaluates the status of the safety devices;
• If everything is OK, the command will be carried out and the motor
will be activated otherwise the barrier will remain at rest.
As a result of this, external devices such as metal detector loops
etc. must be wired to binding posts 13-14, in order to make sure
they receive power. The same applies to an external receiver
and it is only in this way that the remote signal can activate the
motor.
• The batteries allow the barrier even during blackouts: The autonomy
that can be obtained when the batteries are completely charged and
working at an environment temperature of 20°C is 500 manoeuvres,
this figure could drop to 200 depending on:
- the battery lifetime
- the operating temperature
- the length of the blackout
- the power consumption of the loads connected to binding posts
13-14.
To obtain maximum performance you are advised therefore to replace
the batteries every three years.
• As the battery voltage is applied to both the control unit logic as
well as the motor deceleration towards the end of the manoeuvre
will not be available and the speed will depend on the battery power
voltage
The wires connecting the battery to the charger card (fig.18) must
never be short circuited, this would damage the battery, and in the
worst of cases could lead to burns (if metal parts are touching the
skin when the contact is made). Only connect them to the binding
post 9-10 and make sure you respect the polarity. If the batteries
are damaged they could leak acid. The batteries must only be
installed/removed by qualified personnel. Used batteries must not
be thrown into domestic rubbish bins and they must be disposed
according to the local standards and regulations in force.
REMOTE CONTROL (fig. 19, page 20)
The system can be remotely activated using radio control devices that
carry out the sequential command function. The sequential command is
ignored during opening, when the boom is completely open it starts the
closing sequence and during closing it inverts the travel direction.
Memory module (M1)
This is extractable, furnished with a non volatile EEPROM type memory
and contains the transmitter codes and allows you to memorise up to
300 codes. The programmed codes are maintained in this module even
in the absence of power.
Note: Before memorising the transmitters for the first time remember
to cancel the entire memory content. If the electronic card has to be
replaced due to failure, the module can be extracted from it and inserted
into the new card. Make sure that the module is correctly inserted as
shown in fig. 19.
Signal LEDs "L3" (fig. 19)
Flashing quickly: cancels a single code
Flashing slowly: memorises a single code
Permanently lit: memory full.
TRANSMITTER CODE MANAGEMENT
Memorising a channel (fig. 19)
1. Pressandholddownbutton"P1"MEMO:TheLED"L3"willflashslowly.
2. At the same time activate the transmitter which is to be memorised.
3. Hold down button "P1" MEMO until LED "L3" starts to flash again.
4. Release the MEMO button: The LED will continue to flash.
5. Activate the transmitter again (same transmitter, same channel; if the
channel is different or it is a different transmitter the memorisation
attempt will abort without success).
6. End of memorisation: the LED "L3" will remain lit for 2 seconds,
indicating that the transmitter has been correctly memorised.
