3.7 - TESTING AND COMMISSIONING
These are the most important operations, designed to guarantee the
maximum safety and reliability of the automation system.
The testing procedure can also be used as a periodic check of the devic-
es that make up the automation.
The testing and commissioning operations must be performed
by qualified and experienced personnel who must establish what
tests should be conducted based on the risks involved, and verify
the compliance of the system with applicable regulations, legis-
lation and standards, in particular with all the provisions of EN
standard 12445 which establishes the test methods for sectional
and overhead door automation systems.
3.7.1 – Testing
1 Make sure that the provisions contained in chapter 1 "WARN-
INGS" have been carefully observed.
2 Using the selector switch (if provided) or the radio transmitter, test the
opening and closing of the door and make sure that the door moves in
the intended direction.
The test should be carried out a number of times to make sure that the
door moves smoothly, that there are no points of excessive friction and
that there are no defects in the assembly or adjustments.
3 Check the proper operation of all the safety devices, one by one (photo-
cells, sensitive edges, etc.). In particular, each time a device is activated,
the "OK" LED on the control unit flashes for a longer time, confirming that
the control unit recognises the event.
4 To check the photocells (if provided), pass a 5 cm diameter, 30 cm long
cylinder on the optical axis, first near TX, then near RX and finally at the
mid-point between them and make sure that in all these cases the device
is triggered, switching from the active to the alarm status and vice-versa;
finally, that it causes the intended action in the control unit, for example:
when closing, it reverses the motion.

STEP 4
The maintenance operations must be performed in strict com-
pliance with the safety directions provided in this manual and
according to the applicable legislation and standards.
The devices used for the GD0N automation system do not require any
special maintenance. However, periodically make sure (at least once eve-
This product constitutes an integral part of the automation sys-
tem, therefore it must be disposed of along with the latter.
Likewise for installation operations, when the product reaches its end-of-
life decommissioning operations must be performed by qualified person-
nel.
This product is made up of different types of material, some of which
can be recycled while others must be disposed of. Seek information on
the recycling and disposal systems available in your area for this product
category.
Caution! – some parts of the product may contain pollutant or hazardous
substances which, if disposed of into the environment, may cause serious
damage to the environment or physical health.
As indicated by the adjacent symbol, it is strictly forbidden to dispose of
this product together with domestic waste. Therefore, implement sepa-
5 Measure the impact force according to EN standard 12445. If "motor
force" control is used to assist the system for the reduction of the impact
force, try to find the adjustment that gives the best results.
6 Ensure that the entire mechanism is correctly adjusted and that the
automation system inverts the manoeuvre when the door collides with a
50 mm high object on the floor.
7 Ensure that the automation prevents or blocks the opening manoeuvre
when the door is loaded with a mass of 20 Kg, fixed in the middle of the
door's lower edge.
3.7.2 – Commissioning
The commissioning operations can be performed only after all the
tests have been successfully carried out. Partial commissioning or
implementation of "temporary" conditions are not permitted.
1 Draw up the technical file which must include, as a minimum: assembly
drawing (e.g. figure 1), wiring diagram (e.g. figure 56), analysis of hazards
and solutions adopted, manufacturer's declaration of conformity of all the
devices installed. For GD0N use Annex 1 "CE Declaration of Conformity
of the GD0N components".
2 Post a label on the door providing at least the following data: type of
automation, name and address of manufacturer (person responsible for
the "commissioning"), serial number, year of manufacture and "CE" mark-
ing.
3 Fill out the declaration of conformity and deliver it to the owner of the
automation system; for this purpose you can use Annex 2 "CE Declara-
tion of Conformity".
4 Prepare the operating guide and deliver it to the owner of the automa-
tion system; Annex 3 "USER GUIDE" can be used as an example.
5 Prepare the maintenance schedule and deliver it to the owner of the
automation system; it must provide directions regarding the maintenance
of all the automation devices.
6 Post a permanent label or sign near the door detailing the release
and manual manoeuvre operations (refer to the figures in Annex 3 "User
guide").
7 Before commissioning the automation, ensure that the owner is ade-
quately informed of all associated risks and hazards.
8 Post a permanent label or
sign with this image on the door
(minimum height 60 mm) with
inscription WARNING – RISK OF
CRUSHING.
MAINTENANCE
ry six months) that all the devices are perfectly efficient.
To this end, carry out all the tests and checks described in paragraph
3.7.1 "Testing" and the operations described in paragraph 7.3.3 "Mainte-
nance operations to be performed by the user".
If other devices are present, follow the directions provided in the corre-
sponding maintenance schedule.
PRODUCT DISPOSAL
rate waste collection criteria for disposal according to the
regulations in force in your area, or return the product to
the dealer when purchasing a new equivalent version.
Caution! – Local legislation may envisage serious fines in
the event of abusive disposal of this product.
Disposal of the buffer battery (if present)
Caution! – Even if discharged, the batteries can contain pollutant sub-
stances and therefore must never be disposed of in common waste col-
lection points.
Dispose of according to separate waste collection methods as envisaged
by current local standards.
