1) GENERAL OUTLINE
CAPRI-TCA is a control unit compatible with the EElink protocol. The unit is
intended to control a motor having maximum power of 350 W, and to connect
pushbuttons for opening, closing and stopping commands.
It also makes it possible to connect safety devices as required. Commands
can also be sent via radio by means of a transmitter of the rolling-code series;
transmitters are stored in the memory through the self-learning method.
This unit is used to create a wire-controlled centralised system which can
be divided in 8 or more zones, independently of the wiring.

(*) The protection degree of the enclosure is brought to IP55 by applying a
special accessory supplied on request. Only use fittings suited to the
container dimensions and cable diameter.
4) INSTALLATION
Make some openings in which to pass the cables and use the cable-holders
or the PG9 joints supplied depending on the protection degree to be reached
with the case, and based on the installation conditions.
Fasten the support (fig.2) marking the two holes by using the two slots provided
on the container as a template. Use the screws supplied directly or make
a 4mm hole to insert the anchors supplied depending on the material the
support is made of.Tighten the screws completely and correct any centering
difference using the slots on the container.
NOTE: when drilling or tightening the screws, be careful not to damage
the ducts or the cables underneath.
5) ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
CAUTION:The electrical connections must be workmanlike performed
only by qualified and specialized technicians who also have to observe
any current directives and use suitable materials.
A knife switch must be installed before the appliance, with an opening distance
between the contacts equal to or greater than 3,5 mm, with magnetothermal
and differential protection having a capacity suited to the consumption of
the appliance.
Only use cables in compliance with harmonized or national standards for
wiring, with a section appropriate for the protections located upstream, the
consumption and the installation conditions.
Connect the accessories, safety and control devices to the motor unit, making
sure that the mains voltage connections are kept totally separate
from the low voltage accessory connections. Make reference to figure 3 for
the single system connection or to figure 4 for the connection of the units
of a centralized system.To ensure continuity of the ground protection
circuit, connect the earth wire of the operator to the earth wire of the
power supply unit using the terminal supplied. The serial connections
to obtain a centralized wire control must only be made using telephone-type
pair. When using a telephone wire with several pairs it is necessary to use
the wires of the same pair. The length of the telephone wire between the
units must not exceed 250m. The control push-buttons should be provided
with symbols indicating the actual operation direction.
If other devices have to be connected onto the STOP and PHOTOCELL
terminals, it is necessary to remove the jumpers connected by the
manufacturer.When connecting several devices to one of these inputs,
they must be connected in series.
6) WIRE CONTROL
To obtain a local wire control, it is sufficient to connect the inputs of the board
according to the instructions given in paragraph 5 and fig.3.
If a centralized wire control has to be obtained, it is necessary to carry out
the connections of fig.4 following the instructions given in paragraph 5 in
addition to the connections described above. Furthermore, it is necessary
to identify the master board and set the zone addresses. The master board
is the one in which all the controls are carried out by all the other boards
belonging to the same zone. To configurate the board as a master board,
move the DIP switch 5 to "ON". Only one master board can be identified
in each zone. The zone includes all the boards with the same address; the
address is set by mean of the three DIP switches n° 6, 7, 8.
Therefore, it is possible to define up to 8 different zones regardless of the
wiring.
A master device having the zone configuration set to value 0 controls all the
other connected devices (overall control), regardless of their configuration
(master or slave).If a system requires more than 8 zones, it is possible to
define different addresses from 8 to 127 using the UNIPRO universal pro-
grammer and setting the number of the zone in the advanced parameter
"Address 1". In this case, the address programmed using the UNIPRO will
prevail over the one programmed using the DIP switches. To return to the
configuration function using the dip switches, set the advanced parameter
"Address 1" to 0, using the UNIPRO, or erase the memory completely as
described below (in this case all information stored in the board will be
erased). A centralized wire system can be created both by closing the loop
(carrying out the connections marked with a broken line in fig.4 and setting
to ON the dip switch n°4 of the master boards), or by leaving the loop open
(without carrying out the connections marked with a broken line in fig.4 and
leaving on OFF the dip switch n°4 of all boards).
When the loop is closed, each zone master checks the execution of the
