7 AUTOMATION TESTING AND
COMMISSIONING
CAUTION! – All operations in this chapter must be performed
exclusively by skilled and qualified personnel, in observance of the
instructions in the manual, and current local legislation and safety
standards in the place of installation.
These are the most important phases of automation set-up to ensure max-
imum system safety. The testing procedure described can also be per-
formed as a periodic check of automation devices.
Testing and commissioning of the automation must be performed by
skilled and qualified personnel, who are responsible for the tests required
to verify the solutions adopted according to the risks present, and for
ensuring observance of all legal provisions, standards and regulations: and
in particular all requirements of the standard EN 12445, which establishes
the test methods for checking automations for gates.
7.1 - Automation testing
Each automation component, such as sensitive edges, photocells, emer-
gency stop, etc., requires a specific testing phase; for these devices take
care to follow the procedures specified in the respective instruction manual.
To test, proceed as follows:
1 Ensure that all specifications in the chapter "GENERAL SAFETY PRE-
CAUTIONS AND WARNINGS" regarding safety have been strictly
observed;
2 Release the gearmotor by means of the special release key (refer to the
paragraph "Manually releasing or locking the gearmotor" in the "Opera-
tion manual");
3 Ensure that the gate leaf can be moved manually both in opening and
closing;
4 Then lock the gearmotor by means of the special key (refer to the para-
graph "Manually releasing or locking the gearmotor");
5 Using the control or stop devices of the automation (key-operated
selector switch, control pushbuttons, transmitters, etc.) perform gate
opening and closing tests, ensuring that the leaf movement corre-
sponds to specifications. Test several times to assess smooth operation
of the gate and check for any defects in assembly or adjustment and
any possible points of friction;
6 Check operation of all system safety devices one at a time (photocells,
sensitive edges, etc.) and ensure that automation behaviour corre-
sponds to specifications. Each time a safety device is activated, the OK
led on the control unit must emit 2 quick flashes, to confirm acknowl-
edgement of the event by the control unit;
7 Measure the impact force as specified in the standard EN 12445. If the
motor force control is used by the control unit as an auxiliary function for
reduction of impact force, adjust the functions to identify the setting that
obtains the best results;
8 Permanently affix a label in the zone adjacent to the automation describ-
ing how to manually release the gearmotor.
7.2 - Automation commissioning
Commissioning can only be performed after positive results of all
test phases. Partial or "makeshift" commissioning is strictly pro-
hibited.
1 Prepare the automation technical documentation (to be conserved for at
least 10 years), which must contain the following documents: an overall
layout diagram of the automation, electrical wiring diagram, risk assess-
ment and relative solutions adopted, manufacturer's declaration of con-
formity for all devices used and the declaration of conformity compiled
by the installer, copy of instruction manual for operation and the
automation maintenance schedule;
2 Affix a dataplate on the door, specifying at least the following data: type
of automation, name and address of manufacturer (responsible for com-
missioning), serial number, year of construction and CE mark;
3 Prepare and provide the automation owner with the declaration of con-
formity; the form "CE Declaration of conformity" must be compiled
for this purpose;
4 Prepare and provide the automation owner with the form "Operation
manual";
5 Prepare and provide the owner with the form "Maintenance sched-
ule", containing all maintenance instructions for all devices in the
automation;
6 Before commissioning the automation, ensure that the owner is ade-
quately informed of all associated risks and hazards.

PRODUCT DISPOSAL
This product is an integral part of the automation and therefore
must be disposed together with the latter.
As in installation, also at the end of product lifetime, the disassembly and
scrapping operations must be performed by qualified personnel.
This product comprises various types of materials: some may be recycled
others must be disposed of. Seek information on the recycling and dis-
posal systems envisaged by the local regulations in your area for this prod-
uct category.
CAUTION! – some parts of the product may contain pollutant or haz-
ardous substances which, if disposed of into the environment, may cause
serious damage to the environment or physical health.
As indicated by the symbol alongside, disposal of this prod-
uct in domestic waste is strictly prohibited. Separate the
waste into categories for disposal, according to the meth-
ods envisaged by current legislation in your area, or return
the product to the retailer when purchasing a new version.
CAUTION! – Local legislation may envisage serious fines in the event of
abusive disposal of this product.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS
In general, this product does not require special maintenance; however,
regular checks over time will ensure system efficiency and correct opera-
tion of the safety systems installed
The automation requires periodic maintenance to ensure optimal opera-
tion, extended lifetime and complete safety. Automation maintenance
must be scheduled at regular intervals. Scheduled routine maintenance
must be performed at the latest every 6 months.
To perform maintenance checks, proceed as follows.
CAUTION! - Disconnect all electric power sources before perform-
ing any checks.
• Check all automation components for wear; with special attention to the
phenomena of erosion or oxidation of structural parts; if necessary replace
parts that show reduced efficiency.
• Check the moving parts for wear: Pinion, rack, and all parts making up
the gate leaf; replace worn parts as necessary.
• On completion of the maintenance checks, reconnect the electric power
supply and perform all tests and checks as envisaged in chapter 4.
