14 - TESTING AND COMMISSIONING
These are the most important phases of the automation's
construction, as they ensure maximum safety of the system.
The test can also be used to periodically verify the devices making up
the automation.
m
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 that
all legal provisions, standards and regulations are met, in
particular all the requirements of the EN 12445 standard, which
defines the test methods for checking gate automations.
The additional devices must undergo specific testing, both in terms of
their functions and their proper interaction with the control unit.
Refer to the instruction manuals of the individual devices.
14.1 - TESTING
To run the test:
1. verify that all the instructions stated in the "GENERAL SAFETY
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS" chapter have been strictly
observed
2. check that the boom is correctly balanced (see paragraph " Boom
balancing")
3. check that the manual unlocking device works properly (see
paragraph "Manually unlocking and locking the gearmotor")
4. using the control devices (transmitter, control push-button, key
selector, etc.), test the boom opening, closing and stopping
phases, ensuring that the movement matches the specifications.
Several tests should be conducted to assess the boom's
movement and to check for any assembly or adjustment defects
or any particular points of friction.
NOTE: If the duration of the maneuver is not correct with respect
to the limit switches, make a fine adjustment of the stroke using
L.AdJ
the parameter
5. verify the correct operation of all the safety devices present,
one-by-one (photocells, sensitive edges, etc.) whenever a device
intervenes, the "OK" LED on the control unit will emit 2 quicker
flashes to confirm the recognition
6. verify the correct operation of the photocells in the following way:
- depending on whether one or two pairs of photocells have
been installed, one or two blocks of rigid material (e.g. wooden
panels) are required, measuring 70x30x20 cm. Each block
must have three sides of reflective material (e.g. mirror or glossy
white paint), one for each dimension, and three sides of opaque
material (e.g. matt black paint). To test the photocells positioned
50 cm above the ground, the block must be placed on the
ground, or raised to 50 cm when testing photocells positioned
1 m above the ground
- if the test is on a pair of photocells, the testing block must be
placed directly under the centre of the boom with the 20 cm
sides facing the photocells and moved along the entire length
of the boom

- if the test is on two pairs of photocells, the test must first be
performed individually for each pair of photocells using one
testing block and then repeated using two testing blocks;
each testing block must be positioned laterally in relation to the
centre of the boom, at a distance of 15 cm and then moved
along the entire length of the boom

- during these tests, the testing block must be detected by the
photocells in any position it lies along the entire length of the
boom
7. check that there are no interferences between the photocells and
other devices:
- block the line of sight between the pair of photocells with a
cylinder (diameter 5 cm, length 30 cm), by moving it close to
the TX photocell first then next to the RX photocell and then at
the mid-point between the two

– check that the device intervenes in all cases, switching from the
active to the alarm status and vice-versa
– check that it triggers the intended action in the control unit (e.g.
a reversal of the movement during the closing manoeuvre)
