Mounting th e Power Pack and Junction Box
Remove the dus t-cover from the Ju nction Box. De pending on the posi tion
of the nearest m ains 3-pin power socke t, choose a front or side wall . On
that wall, u sing the #4 screws and Ø 5.5 mm p lugs su pplied, mount th e
Junction Box as in Figure 14, 1.1 m from the fl oor and 100 mm from the side
guide of the do or.
Take care to avoid damagi ng the wires in the Junc tion Box.
Plug the Power Pack in to the 3-Pin Mains S ocket; do not switc h on yet. Use
the t win-fl ex cable to connect the Power Pack to the Junc tion Box as in
Figure 15, making u se of the Yellow and Blue terminals , marked ‘AC 24V’.
(Note: depend ing on the position of the pow er point, a longer length of
twi n-fl ex may be r equir ed). S ecur e the ca ble to t he wall by mean s of cab le-
saddles. Fi t the dust-cover to the Ju nction Box. Plug the sh ort end of the
curly cord int o the Junction Box.
As in Figure 16, at tach the beginning of the s traight portion of the c urly
cord to the tip of th e nearest bearing
bracket wit h a cable-tie, t hen at the
diagonal at tachment po int. Plug the
free end of the c urly cord into th e
socket third f rom the right of th e
Controller (F igure 9). Secure the cord
to the next bear ing bracket w ith a
cable-tie. Finally, fold up any slack
cable and sec ure it with a ca ble-tie.
Trim the free ends of t he cable-ties.
Measure the di stance fro m the Key Release to t he end of the Manu al
Over-ride Lev er in the horizo ntal positio n. Cut the cabl e 150 mm l onger
than this dis tance. Insert the Key Re lease into the body and loc k it. Loop
the cable aro und the end of the Manu al Over-ride Lever an d secure it with
an electr ical screw clamp.
Manual Operation
To release the door fr om the Paratrak uni t for manual operati on, move the
yellow lever at th e right end of the unit, from i ts horizontal positi on in an
anti-cloc kwise direct ion until it touches t he body.
The door may now b e moved by hand. To re-engage th e drive, return the
yellow lever to the h orizontal position in a c lockwise direct ion. Note that
the door may be re -engaged in any positi on, and, if not closed, the nex t
operation w ill cause the door t o close slowly until t he fl oor is rea ched.
Fitting Safety Beams
Choose and mar k a suitable mounting heigh t on both sides of t he gate
or doorwa y, low enough to protect todd lers and pets, but not l ower than
the under-sid e of most motor ve hicles. Mou nt the Safety B eam units
(Transmitter and Receiver) opposing one another, and at the chosen
height. Note: Do no t screw or rivet t hrough the sid e tracks. T his will
interfere w ith the free movement o f the curtain.
Wiring (Refe r to Figure 15)
In the Junct ion Box (dust cover re moved), use the Wh ite terminal to sup ply
positive(+) voltag e to both beam units, a nd the black termina l to make the
negative (-) con nection to b oth beam unit s. If a Digitronic S afety Beam
set is used, in t he receiver uni t, connect a s hort wire f rom negative (-)
to ‘COM’. Lastly, connec t the Red terminal to the beam no rmally closed
(N.C.) terminal on th e beam Receiver unit.
Set-up
Referring to Fig ure 9, enable the Safety Bea m by removing the link below
the Telecom plug. The S afety Beam w ill not funct ion if this is no t done.
Interrupt ing the beam during closing w ill cause the Paratrak to s top and
reverse, but wi ll be ignored during op ening.
Enabling Auto-close
Warni ng! I t is stro ngly advised that Safety Beams are fi tted before
making use of Auto-close.
Referring to Fig ure 9, remove the Auto-cl ose Link to the right of t he 3-way
screw termin als. For conveni ence, store the L ink on a single pin . The
Auto-clo se timer will start af ter the door has stoppe d opening; after ten
seconds the be eper will sound and the lights will fl ash f or a f urther ten
seconds bef ore the door start s to close. Interrupt ing the safety beam wi ll
reset the time r, and the timer will not sta rt while the beam is in terrupted.
Fitting a Wall Console
Fix the Wall Cons ole to the wall, in a convenient po sition (usually next to
the side door) a t a height of at least 1,5 m, within sight of the automa ted
door, but clear of mov ing parts. To add the Wall Cons ole to the Paratrak,
close the doo r and un-clip the cover f rom the Battery Box. A s in ‘Adding
an eKey Remote’, press th e button on th e Controller a nd the LED will
fl as h. Wit hin 3 0 seco nds, press the l arge bu tton on th e Wall Consol e,
causing the L ED on the Controller to turn of f. Press the same button on
the Wal l Console and t he LED will fl ash a nd the Beeper w ill sound four
times. The Wall C onsole is ready for use. T he large button will c ontrol the
Paratrak (Op en, Close and Stop). The button w ith the light symbol tur ns
the Paratrak l ighting on and of f. (Note that this light ing will still go of f after
three minute s). Normal operation of th e Paratrak is locked and u n-locked
by means of the bu tton with th e key symbol. Th e LED on the Contro ller
changes fro m green to red when locked .
Fitting an Additional Receiver
An addition al receiver may be con nected by means o f the terminals sh own
in fi g ure 8. These are:
‘-’(0V), ‘+’(24V ) and ‘▲▼’ (O perate, N.O. conta ct, acti ve low signal). Thi s
receiver sho uld not exceed 50 mA. The ra nge of this rece iver may be
degraded; i f so, increase the mounting d istance to at least 1 met re from
the Controller.
Status Indications
The single L.E. D. on the controller indicat es the status of the Parat rak as
follows:
• Green (solid) - Ready, Mains is on
• Green (fl ashing) - Ready, Mains is off - b attery voltag e good
• Red (fl a shing) - Batter y low – door cannot oper ate – restore mains
to charge
• Red (solid) - Door locked by mea ns of the wall con sole – will
beep once when operation is attempted – unlock
using the wall console
• Orange (fl ashing) - R eset – Programming mode – see Step 11, Set-u p
for details Pag e 9
Note: To save power, the Status L. E.D turns off when th e Courtesy Light
