Stop blocks on the ground
The IXENGO L 230V RTS drive is designed for motorising hinged gates
with a rigid structure (wood, metal, aluminium), with the following maximum
dimensions:
Weight per gate leaf
Width per gate leaf
Number of cycles per hour: 10 cycles/hour at 20°C, spread uniformly across
the hour (this may vary depending on the installation).
For a large gate leaf format (larger than 2 m) or in a windy area, Somfy
recommends installing an electric lock.
Stop blocks integrated into the motors - option (ref. 9019745)
When the stop blocks are added to the ends of the motor, it is essential to
configure a slowdown at the motor end limits (see instructions CB230, section
entitled "Programming the gate leaf travel").
In this case, the maximum specifications are:
Weight per gate leaf
Width per gate leaf

3 INSTALLATION

3.1 Dimensions to be defined (opening inwards) - Fig. 4
No. Description
A-B Dimension to determine the mounting point of the pillar mounting
bracket
X Distance between the gate axis and the edge of the pillar
Z Distance from the edge of the pillar to the motor's rotation axis (length
of the mounting bracket)
α° Opening angle of the gate
3.2 Dimensions to be defined (opening outwards) - Fig. 5
No. Description
A-B Dimension to determine the mounting point of the pillar mounting
bracket
Maximum opening 90°.

3.3 Installing the pillar mounting bracket

A tool to help you measure the dimensions is available from your Somfy contact.
[1]. Define the required opening angle α°.
[2]. Measure the dimension X on the gate.
[3]. Calculate B = Z + X (with Z = 110 mm for the standard mounting bracket).
[4]. In the table of dimensions, define the dimension A according to the required
opening angle α° and the calculate dimension B.

Having similar values for A and B will ensure the gate's movement is more
fluid.
As the values for A and B get further apart, the gate's movement becomes
less fluid, and the force exerted on gate will vary more.
The higher the value B, the greater the force required for closing.
To increase the value for dimension B, use a long mounting bracket where
Z = 240 mm (ref. 9019500) - Fig. 4 -
[5]. Secure the pillar mounting bracket:
- Screw bracket - Fig. 6a
- Welded bracket - Fig. 6b

3.4 Installing the gate leaf mounting bracket - Fig. 7

[1]. Unlock the cylinder.
[2]. Fit the cylinder on the pillar mounting bracket.
[3]. Insert the pillar mounting bracket-motor connecting pin.
[4]. Install the gate leaf mounting bracket on the cylinder.
[5]. Secure the gate leaf mounting bracket, ensuring that the cylinder is
correctly levelled.

3.5 Installing the stop blocks on the ground - Fig.8

Check that the stop blocks for the gate leaves are present on the ground J.
For the cylinder to operate, the use of stop blocks on the ground is compulsory
for both opening and closing. The stop blocks on the ground apply physical
pressure to the gate leaves, thus limiting the mechanical stress on the cylinders
(particularly in windy conditions).
Depending on the gate specifications, it may be possible to replace the stop
blocks on the ground with stop blocks integrated in the motors (ref. 9019745).
4 MOTOR ELECTRICAL CONNECTION FIG.
[1]. Cable the cylinders to the CB 230 RTS control box.
[2]. Refit the caps on the cylinder (Fig. 10).

5 LOCKING/UNLOCKING THE MOTORS

When unlocking the motors, the gate may be manoeuvred manually if there is an
electrical fault (Fig. 11).
