the user the warnings handbook supplied with the product.
21. Do not allow children or adults to stay near the product while it is operating.
22. Keep remote controls or other pulse generators away from children, to prevent the automated system from being activated involuntarily.
23. Transit through the leaves is allowed only when the gate is fully open.
24. The user must not attempt any kind of repair or direct action whatever and contact qualified personnel only.
25. Do not short-circuit the poles of the batteries and do not try to recharge the batteries with power supply units other than Master or Slave
cards.
26. Do not throw exhausted batteries into containers for other waste but dispose them in the appropriate containers to enable them to be
recycled.
27. Anything not expressly specified in these instructions is not permitted.
Estate Slide Summery of Functions
The Estate Slide is only to be used for vehicular Slide gates in a Class I
setting.
Class I: A vehicular gate opener (or system) intended for use in a home of
one-to-four single family dwelling, or a garage or parking area associated
therewith.
The FAAC Estate Slide automated system was designed and built for controlling
vehicle access. Do not use for any other purpose.
The EstateSlide automated system automates residential Slide-leaf gates with
leaves of up to 16’ in length.
It consists of a locking electro-mechanical linear operator, powered by a 12V DC
battery, coupled with control board recharging the battery. The MASTER card can
be programmed and is used to set the following: function logics, work times (by
self-learning) and pause times, leaf speed, and the sensitivity of the anti-crushing
device.
The locking system will automatically lock when the motor is not operating. A release system enables the gate to be moved by hand in case of a system failure.
Keep this manual safely stored after
installation.

Standard System
Overview and Safety
Zones
The system display to the right is a
recommended standard system.
Other approved accessories can be
installed. Photo sensors and a flashing light indicating gate movement
is recommended for safety purposes.
1 Estate Swing Operator
2 Photocells (not included)
3 Key operated pushbutton
4 Flashing lamp
5 Radio receiver (optional)
Notes: 1) Do not extend operator connection cables
2) When laying electrical cables, use
appropriate rigid and/or flexible tube
3) Do not run any wires in the same conduit as
110 AC power that may be in the area. This
will cause unwanted interference
IMPORTANT
Preliminary Checks:
To ensure safety and an efficiently operating automated system, make sure the following conditions are observed.
• The gate and post must be suitable for being automated. Check that the structure is suffi-
ciently strong and rigid, and its dimensions and weights conform to those
indicated on page 1. In particular, wheel diameter must be in relation to the weight of the
gate to be automated. Dimensions and weight must match those indicated in the technical
specifications.
• Make sure the leaves move smoothly without any irregular friction during entire travel.
• The soil must permit sufficient stability for the expansion plugs securing the foundation
plate.
• Check if the upper guide and travel limit mechanical stops are installed.
We advise you to have any metalwork carried out before the automated system is installed.
2.1
Tools Needed
• Power Drill
• Crescent Wrench
• 3/8” Drill Bit
• Hacksaw
• Flat Head Screwdriver
• Phillips Head Screwdriver
• Tape Measure
• Level
• Wire Strippers
• C-clamps
Other items that may be needed prior to commencing installation.
• Additional low voltage wire may be required to run power to your operator.
Length is determined by distance between transformer power supply and the
control box.
• If the gate is more than 1000’ from an a/c power supply then alternate power will
be necessary to charge your battery.
• Depending on the current base, you may need cement to form a level mounting
pad.
• A voltage meter may be necessary to run diagnostic checks.
• A digital camera will come in handy with technicians if any support is needed.
3.1
IMPORTANT: Charging Battery Prior to Use
Before beginning any electrical stages of installation we highly recommend charging the battery on the control board for 12 hours. This can be done anywhere there
is an outlet available.
1. Plug the battery into the control board (fig 1). For charging purposes it is not
necessary to hook the receiver to the battery or control board.
2. Insert the wires from the supplied AC transformer into terminal J2 of the con-
trol board. NEVER RUN 110V AC or POWER IN THROUGH ANY
OTHER METHOD BESIDES THE PROVIDED TRANSFORMER TO
THE CONTROL BOARD.
3. Let the unit charge for 12 hours, after you
can proceed with the installation
process.
