3) GENERAL INFORMATION

Suitable for motorising sectional doors (fig. 2), spring overhead doors with
total reentrance (fig. 3) and overhead doors with counterweights by means
of a special pulling arm (fig. 4). The maximum height of the overhead door
must not exceed 2.5 meters (3.5 meters with extension).
The installation is carried out easily, it allows a fast assembly without any
change to the door. The closing lock is maintained by the irreversible motor
reducer. This product was designed in order to motorise the above
mentioned types of doors. Any other use will be considered contrary to the
use foreseen by the manufacturer which, therefore, cannot be considered
responsible for any caused damage to things, people, animals.

4) INSTALLATION OF THE AUTOMATION

Preliminary controls
Check the balance of the door.
Check the sliding of the door for all its travel.
If the door is not of new installation, check the wear state of all its component
parts. Fix or replace the faulty or worn parts.
The reliability and safety of the automation is directly influenced by the
condition of the structure of the door.

5) ASSEMBLY

Once removed the packing, the door opener presents itself as in fig. 5. We
would like to remind you to dispose of all the components of the packing
separating the different types of material (cardboard, polystyrene, PVC
etc.) according to what foreseen by the national regulations in force.

- Remove the existing locking bolt from the door cremone bolt.

- Place the joint “G” as in fig. 6.

- Place the half track as in fig. 7 and lower it to the face putting the chain
into tension and obtaining in this way the whole track.

- Place the joint divided into two between the two semi-tracks as in fig. 8.

- Block the joint by tightening the special supplied screws as in fig. 9. The
door opener is therefore ready for the installation.

- Mark the centre line of the door and fix the pin joint of the track to the door
frame as in fig. 10. If the height of the ceiling of the room allows it, it is
possible to assemble the pin joint higher fixing it to the masonry headsill
with wedges.

- With the aid of a support as a ladder, lift the motorised head until levelling
the track as in fig. 11.

- Fasten the two supporting brackets to the ceiling as in fig. 12. Check
everything again and fasten the two supporting brackets onto the base
plate of the motor reducer.

DF1 - PREALL

ON - Inserts pre-alarm (Disconnect power at every change).
OFF - Switches off pre-alarm (Disconnect power at every change).

DF2 - TCA

OFF - Inserts the automatic closing.
ON - Switches off the automatic closing.

11) TEST PUSH-BUTTON (fig. 16)
A start push-button is foreseen as a test on the board for controlling the
opening and closing manoeuvre.

12) CHAIN TIGHTENER REGULATION

The automation is supplied already calibrated and tested. If it is necessary
to adjust the tension of the chain proceed as indicated in fig. 17.
ATTENTION: The compression spring must never be compressed
completely. Check carefully that the spring does not go into total compression
during the functioning.

13) LIMIT SWITCH REGULATION

The operator disposes of a unit for limit switch regulation which is supplied
already regulated for the maximum available travel. The limit switch unit is
equipped with 2 microswitches for every direction: the first intercepted
activates the slowing down, the second intercepted stops the operator.
ATTENTION: before carrying out any regulation operation, disconnect the
power from the system. Every time the power is disconnected from the
system, the electronics resets. When power is given to the system, the first
start always carries out the opening manoeuvre. To regulate the opening
and closing microswitches, proceed as follows:

- If the pulling carriage is in the position of manual unlocking, bring it to the

chain coupling moving the door manually until coupling it up and give
power supply to the system.

- Give START: the first control always carries out the opening manoeuvre.

Give START to stop the door when it is in the position of total opening.

To regulate the limit of the travel, lift the holding spring from the gear
teeth of the cam with a screwdriver (fig. 18), rotate the opening cam in
the direction of the opening microswit-ches “OPEN”, until hearing the
click of the first and second limit switch. Lower the spring until fitting a
tooth of the cam.

- Feed the system and give START to carry out the closing manoeuvre.
Give Start when the door is completely closed. Lift the holding spring
from the gear teeth of the cam with a screwdriver (fig. 19), rotate the
closing cam in the direction of the closing microswitches “CLOSE”, until
hearing the click of both limit switches. Lower the spring until fitting a
tooth of the cam.

- Give power and check the slowing down and stopping in both positions.
Check that the stopping during opening and closing is carried out
without excessive traction or compression of the system.

- Repeat the complete opening and closing manoeuvre a few times in
order to control if the limit microswitches intervene correctly. Regulate
the position of the cams if necessary.

- The holding spring must always be fitted in the gear teeth of the cams
in order to maintain their position.

- Reassemble the cowling of the operator.

14) SLOWING DOWN SPEED AND TORQUE (fig.20)

N.B. If the thrust, in the final opening and closing phase does not allow to
obtain the complete desired manoeuvre, it is possible to increase the force
of the motor reducer by moving the connection of the transformer from
terminal 3 to terminal 4 as in fig. 20.

15) EMERGENCY MANOEUVRE

If there is no power or because of a breakdown of the system, to carry out
the manoeuvre manually, pull the cord connected to the carriage as in fig.

21. For garages without secondary exit it is compulsory to assemble an

unlocking device from outside with key ( Mod. SM1-fig.22 or Mod. SET/S

-fig23).

16) CONTROL OF THE AUTOMATION

Before making the automation definitely operative, carefully check the
following:

- Check the correct functioning of all safety devices (limit microswitches,
photocells, sensitive cushions etc.).

- Check that the thrust (anticrushing) of the door is within the limits
foreseen by the regulations in force.

- Check that the chain tightener spring is not compressed completely
during the manoeuvre.

- Check the manual opening control.

- Check the opening and closing operation with the applied control
devices.

- Check the electronic logic of normal and personalised functioning.

17) USE OF THE AUTOMATION

As the automation can be controlled at a distance by means of remote
control or start push-button, and therefore not at sight, it is indispensable
to control frequently the perfect efficiency of all safety devices. For any
functioning anomaly, intervene rapidly even with the help of qualified
personnel. We recommend to keep children at a suitable distance from the
range of action of the automation.

18) CONTROL

The use of the automation allows the opening and closing of the door in a
motorised way. The control can be of different types (manual, with remote
control, access control with magnetic badge etc.) according to the necessity
and the characteristics of the installation. For the various control systems,
see the relative instructions.
The users of the automation must be instructed about its control and use.

19) MAINTENANCE

For any maintenance, disconnect the system from the power supply.

- Check periodically (twice a year) the tightening of the chain.

- Carry out occasionally the cleaning of the photocells optics if installed.

- Have the correct regulation of the electronic clutch controlled by qualified
personnel (installer).

- For any functioning anomaly, not solved, disconnect the system from
the power supply and request the intervention of qualified personnel
(installer). During the out of order period, activate the manual unlocking
in order to allow the manual opening and closing.

20) NOISE

The environmental noise produced by the gear-motor in normal operation
conditions is constant and does not exceed 70 dB (A).
