KNOWLEDGE OF THE PRODUCT AND PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION

NOTE TO MANUAL
• This manual describes how to implement a complete and opti-
mal automation, like that shown in fig. 6, using all the Mhouse
devices which form part of the automation system known as
"WG2W". Some devices and accessories mentioned in this man-
ual are optional and may not be present in the kit. For a com-
plete overview, see the Mhouse product catalogue or visit www.
niceforyou.com.
• This manual is designed as a step-by-step guide. Therefore, for
the safety and ease of assembly and programming work, we
advice you to carry out all the operations described in the same
order in which they are presented.

2.1 - PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE

The devices in this kit, plus other accessories (some optional and some
not included), together form the automation system called "WS2W",
designed for automation of a hinged gate for "residential" use. All uses
other than the intended use described and use in environmental
conditions other than those described in this manual should be
considered improper and forbidden!
The main part of the automation consists of a control unit and two elec-
tromechanical gearmotors. Each gearmotor is provided with a 24 V direct
current motor and a reduction unit with worm screws; it is equipped with
a mechanical release and key which allows you to manually move the
gate in the event of a lack of power supply.
The command control unit manages the operation of all of the automa-
tion, and is made up of an electronic board and an integrated radio receiv-
er, to receive commands sent by the user via the transmitter. It can store
up to 256 GTX4 transmitters, and up to 20 wireless devices.
The innovative Mhouse Power&Free System allows the control unit to
direct the PH100W photocells and the FL100W flashing indicator, without
wired connections. However it is possible to connect other devices, using
a single cable with two electrical conductors, on the inputs assigned to
opening (Open) and stopping (Stop). The control unit can be powered by
a fixed electrical network (230 V) or, alternatively, by solar energy via the
PF solar power system from the Mhouse line.
If powered from the grid, it can host a buffer battery (mod. PR1, option-
al accessory) which ensures that the automation can execute certain
manoeuvres, during the hours following a loss of power (electrical black-
out). It is however always possible to move the gate manually, by first
releasing the gearmotor using the appropriate key (see chapter 11.3 -
Usage guide).

2.2 - DEVICES REQUIRED TO CREATE A FULL SYSTEM

The fig. 1 shows all the devices required to create a full system, such as
that shown in fig. 6.
The devices shown in fig. 1 are:
A - 2 electromechanical WS1SK gearmotors, complete with mounting
brackets
B - 3 release keys
C - 1 pair of PH100W photocells (made up of a TX and an RX)
D - 2 GTX4 radio transmitters
E - 1 FL100W flashing indicator
F - 1 CL2W command control unit
G - Metal hardware
Note:
- Some devices and accessories mentioned in this manual are option-
al and may not be present in the kit. For a complete overview, see the
Mhouse product catalogue or visit www.niceforyou.com.
- The end stops are not included in the kit and do not form part of the
Mhouse product range.

3.1 - CHECK SUITABILITY OF GATE TO BE AUTOMATED
AND OF THE ENVIRONMENT
• Ensure that the mechanical structure of the gate is suitable for auto-
mation and complies with local standards. To verify this, refer to the
technical data on the label of the gate. Important - This product cannot
automate a gate that is not already secure and efficient; moreover, it
cannot resolve defects caused by improper installation of the gate or
from its poor maintenance.
• Manually move the gate leaves in the two directions (open/closed) and
make sure that the movement takes place with a constant friction at
every point in its course (there should be no points that require more
effort nor less).
• If there is an access door in the gate, or within the range of movement
of the gate, make sure that it does not obstruct normal travel and, if
necessary, provide an appropriate interlock system.
• Make sure that the gate is not on a slope, i.e. that the leaf does not
move by itself when it is manually moved to any position.
• Ensure that the environment in which the gearmotor is to be installed
has sufficient space to be able to perform the manual manoeuvre of
releasing the gearmotor.
• Make sure that the surfaces selected for the installation of the devic-
es, are strong and can ensure a stable attachment; for the photocells,
choose a flat surface that can ensure a correct alignment of the pair (Tx
and Rx).
• Ensure that all devices to be installed are in a sheltered location and
protected against the risk of accidental impact.
• Ensure that the area surrounding the automation does not contain
devices which product persistent radio interference. These can disturb
and distort system functionality.
• Check the dimensional limits by referring to fig. 2.
• Check that there is sufficient space, even with the gate in the open posi-
tion (fig. 3).
• Check, according to the opening angle of the leaves, that you can meet
the limits in fig. 4 and the graph in fig. 5).
• The rear support bracket can be mounted in various ways (fig. 10): the
amount "C" may vary between 53 mm and 176 mm. Usually it is around
150 mm.
• The amount "D" is a value that you can easily measure on the gate.
• The amount "A" is the sum of "C" and "D".
• Based on the value of "A", and the gate opening angle, in Graph 2 you
can obtain the value of "B". For example: if "A" is 150 mm and the gate
opening angle is 100°, the value of "B" is in the region of 150 mm.
We advise you to choose "A" and "B" values which are similar
to one another. By doing this, you are assured of a regular leave
movement, and minor stress to the gearmotor.

3.2 - PRODUCT APPLICATION LIMITS

Before proceeding with installation perform the following checks in the
suggested order and check their compliance with both the data in this
paragraph and the technical data in the chapter "Product technical speci-
fications":
1 - Check that the gate leaves have dimensions and weights which fall
within the following limits:
- maximum length 2.2 m
- maximum weight 250 kg
- opening angle of up to 120°
The shape of the gate and the climatic conditions (for example a strong
wind) can reduce these maximum values. In this case, it is necessary to
measure the torque required to move the leaves in the harshest condi-
tions, and compare it with the data reported in the technical specifica-
tions.
2 - Check the measurements of the total size of the gearmotor (fig. 2).
Note - These measurements also serve as a reference to calculate
the space that the foundation excavation will require for the passage
of the raceways for the electrical cables.
3 - Check that the estimated maximum number of daily cycles (para-
graph 3.2.1) is compatible with the intended use.
4 - Check that the estimated durability is compatible with the intended
use (see paragraph 3.3).
5 - Make sure you can comply with all the limitations, conditions and
warnings in this manual.
