Work time
The motors' work time is controlled by two independent digital timers. For the automation system to work properly the operating time value to be set
must be slightly (min. 2 sec.) above the gate's actual work time. If any command interrupts the wing's travel before its end, the Timer stops and the
elapsed time is stored in memory. Therefore the unit can determine, with a fair approximation, the partial working time necessary to the wing to end its
travel. Thanks to this feature it is possible to avoid that the motor works for a long time after the end of the wing's travel, thus reducing overheating to
the minimum. Warning : In case of absence of power supply the stored position will be lost.
Kickback
This procedure can be enabled or excluded. It is usually employed to help the electric lock release during bad weather conditions (wind, ice, etc.). The
"kickback" procedure consists of a logic sequence operating the electric lock during a short closure phase (approx 1 sec.) with the gate closed. The
electric lock is released only after the wing has started its opening motion.
M1 delay at opening
The unit causes a fixed delay of approx. 2 seconds between the first wing's (M2) and the second wing's (M1) start during the gate's opening phase.
This delay is imposed irrespective of the position from which the gate starts to open. This delay may be cancelled (see "Card programming").
E) Operation modes
The unit can operate in three modes :
- Step by step
- Automatic
- Condominium
The Condominium mode is the priority operation mode. If more than one modes are selected the priority mode will be enabled.
Notice: The operation logic setting (dip switch), the work time programming and the pause time programming must be carried out only if the cycle is
concluded or before it starts (with closed gate).
"Step-by-step" mode
After the power is supplied to the electronic card the first start command determines an opening cycle. At the end of the two work times, the gate
stops. The operating cycle is completed (blinker off) and the system waits for a new start command to determine the closing cycle. If a start command
is supplied when the end of travel has not been reached yet the gate stops. A new start command will cause the reversal of the motion.
"Automatic" mode
After the power is supplied to the electronic card the first start command determines an opening cycle. At the end of the two work times, the gate
stops. The pause period starts (blinker off). At the end of the pause period the gate closes automatically. The operating cycle is complete only when
the closing motion has ended. If a start command is supplied before the end of travel is reached the gate stops. A new start command will cause the
gate to reverse its motion. If a start command is supplied during the pause period the operating cycle is interrupted (blinker off) and the gate does not
close automatically. A further start command will determine a closing cycle.
