Operation with safety cells
An obstacle placed between the cells will prevent the gate from closing.
if an obstacle is detected when the gate is closing, it stops then reopens fully or partially depending on how it was programmed during installation.
If the cells are obscured for 3 minutes, the system switches to the "wired deadman operation" mode. In this mode, a command via a wired input causes
the gate to move slowly. The gate moves for as long as the command is issued and stops immediately when the command is discontinued. The system
switches back to normal operating mode as soon as the cells are no longer obscured.
N.B. the "wired deadman" mode requires the use of a safety contact (e.g. keyed reversing switch ref. 1841036).
operation with orange flashing light
The orange light is activated during any movement of the gate.
A 2-second pre-warning signal before movement starts may be programmed during installation.
Remote lighting operation
Depending on the programming performed during installation, the lighting comes on each time the motor is started and remains on when it stops for the
duration of the programmed time delay.
If a remote control is programmed for the remote lighting, operation is as follows:
with a 2- or 4-button remote control (Fig. 5)
Press the programmed button to operate the lighting.
Operation in sequential mode with automatic reclosing after time delay
The gate closes automatically after a time delay programmed during installation.
A new command issued during this time delay cancels automatic closing and the gate remains open.
The next command issued closes the gate.
Operation using the backup battery
If a backup battery is installed, the motorisation will work even during a power outage.
Operation is then activated under the following conditions:
• With a 9.6 V battery:
• Reduced speed.
• The additional devices (photoelectric cells, orange light, wired code keypad, etc.) do not operate.
• With a 24 V battery:
• normal operation: normal, accessories functional
Battery specifications:
• Life: 24 hrs; 5 operating cycles depending on the weight of the gate.
• Recharging time: 48 hours
• Service life before replacement: Approximately 3 years.
For optimum battery life it is recommended that the main power supply be switched off and the motor operated using the battery for several cycles, three
times a year.

Adding remote controls

2- or 4-button remote control (Fig. 7)
Copying the function from a memorised button on a 2- or 4-button remote
control to a button on a new 2- or 4-button remote control:
A
Remote control "A" = "source" remote control already memorised
Remote control "B" = "target" remote control to be memorised
For example, if the button on remote control A opens the gate fully, the button
on the new remote control (B) will also open the gate fully.
