1. Introduction
1.1. General description
Radio safety solution for industrial sliding gates with NO-TOUCH technology. Based on 3 devices: transmitter (CAP
T868/916, CAP ACTIVE 868), receiver (CAP R868/916) and inhibition detector (CAP MAGIN).
• Compatible with all kind of metallic / aluminum sliding gates.
• Category 2 devices.
Safety edge gives the device security degree. NO-TOUCH detection is a courtesy function.
NO-TOUCH detection is not working all the time, it only should work during the movement of the gate. It detects metal
or conductive objects near the safety edge. It cannot detect plastics, glass neither other no conductive materials.
The receiver manages the activation and deactivation of NO-TOUCH function depending on the status of the inhibition
detector (inhibition input).
Inhibition detector is based on magnetic fields thanks to the use of 2 polarized magnets (grey and black). These 2
magnets are the responsible for activating and deactivating NO-TOUCH sensor on the transmitter. It is needed to
deactivate NO-TOUCH sensor at a distance of 30-50cm before the door is totally closed (inhibition zone).
CAP system is not suitable

2. Detection principles
CAPT detects objects near the safety edge of the gate by detecting variations between conductive part of the gate and
conductive parts of the safety edge.
For that reason CAPT has a cable to connect GND to the metal part of the gate.
It is very important for the proper working of the NO TOUCH detection that the ground
reference is properly connected.
The measurement is going to
depend on:
• Size of the conductive
part of the object.
• Distance from the
object to the edge of
the gate.
Maximum safety edge length=
2.5m.

3.3. CAP MAGIN
MAGNETS: at the gate.
Grey magnet should be installed to activate the NO-TOUCH sensor when the gate
starts the close movement. Black magnet switches off the NO-TOUCH sensor in
order to allow the gate to closing.
GREY – BLACK magnets position depends on the direction of the gate. CAP MAGIN LED must be GREEN while gate is
closing/opening, RED when gate is totally closed/opened.
CAP MAGIN: install onto a support near the magnets and at the same height.
In case the gate is not totally
opened/closed, a safety time of
5 minutes is added to avoid
battery consumption.
Maximum NO TOUCH
activation time = 5 minutes
Depending on the gate direction, BLACK magnet is the one
who actives the NO-TOUCH sensor.

3.3.1. Fixing the ACTIVATION magnet
With the GATE TOTALLY OPENED fix the south field magnet (grey).
Grey magnet must be 2-3 cm away from the MAGIN detector. When the door starts closing, the green magnet travels
past the MAGIN and NO-TOUCH gate sensor is activated.
LED indicator on MAGIN detector changes to green color when grey magnet passes in front of MAGIN.
INHIBITION ZONE: NO TOUCH
Before fixing the magnet, CAP ACTIVE/CAP T must be programmed at the

3.3.2. Fixing the DEACTIVATION magnet
With the GATE AT 30-50CM FROM ITS CLOSED POSITION:
Black magnet must be fixed at the other extreme of the gate (in respect of the grey magnet). The location of this magnet
depends on the inhibition zone desired.
Due to NO TOUCH detection, it is required that an inhibition zone is created at the end of the gate movement in order to
avoid the detection of the wall support by NO TOUCH detector. In this zone, the safety edge will only be activated from
mechanical compression.
Inhibition zone length depends on NO TOUCH sensitivity adjustment.
When NO-TOUCH sensor is detecting, an LED on the transmitter is activated. If indicators on the transmitter are
switched off, it is needed to push PROG button on the transmitter to activate during 5 minutes the LED visualization on
the transmitter.
LED indicator on MAGIN detector changes to red color when black magnet passes in front of MAGIN.

In order to comply with EN ISO 13849-1: 2008 safety standard, a signal to test the system must be connected.
When working with optical safety edges, in ON mode, only OSE-S7502 are allowed as they are kept always active. The
radio communication is tested every 7 or 30 seconds depending on the selector SW1 of the receiver.

CAPTIVE SYSTEM
jcmtechnologies
21
In WORK mode, the ATEST signal is used to power up and down the optical safety edges. The radio communication is
tested as in ON mode and when the optical elements are powered up and down.
4.4. Connecting MAGIN to the receiver
Any kind of external signal is suitable to manage the activation / deactivation of the NO TOUCH function. A dry contact
signal must be connected into INH – GND terminal. Selector 3 on the receiver selects the inhibition signal polarity to be
able to apply different kind of signals.
When INH LED on the receiver is switched on, the NO TOUCH sensor is deactivated.

5. Adjustment of the reciver / Operating modes
The system performs a complete test of the equipment, including
Operating mode with optical safety edges
In ON mode, only "always on" optical safety edges (OSE-S7502)
are permitted, as the optical element always is on.
In WORK mode, the optical elements are OFF meanwhile the
ATEST signal is active. So it is necessary to disconnect this ATEST
signal during the door movement.
Open contact in “INH-GND” connector
switch off NO TOUCH detector.
Close contact in “INH-GND” connector
switch off NO TOUCH detector (CAP MAGIN)
ATEST signal polarity (depends on the control panel)
ATEST negative: ATEST signal is a fixed 12 or 24V signal that the
control panel sets to 0V to make the system check.
ATEST positive: ATEST signal is disconnected and when the control
panel makes a testing gives a 12 or 24V signal.

CAPTIVE SYSTEM
jcmtechnologies
23
In case of operating without ATEST signal, it is necessary to work in ATEST positive way. In order to comply with the EN
ISO 13849-1: 2008 safety standard, you must connect this signal to test the system.
ON/WORK mode
The operating mode is selected by the SW2 of the receiver. This selector is necessary when working with optical safety
edges. All transmitters in the receiver work in the same way. It will be necessary to reset the receiver when changing
the operating mode with transmitters already memorized.
With standard optical safety edges, WORK mode must be used due to high consumption of the optical elements.
With OSE-S7502 "always on" optical safety edges, both modes are allowed. In ON mode, the system becomes
universal for any control panel. In WORK mode the battery life is maximized thanks to the shutdown of the optical
elements.

6. Programming
6.1. Programming safety edge to receiver
CAP R868/916 receiver can work with standard RB3 transmitters and new CAP ACTIVE/CAP T transmitter (NO-TOUCH
function) at the same time.
Inhibition input (switch on and off the NOTOUCH function) will affect all CAP
ACTIVE/CAP T transmitters in the same way.
It does not make any difference between
safety edge on opening nor on closing.
CAP ACTIVE / CAP T transmitter has 2
separate detectors, mechanical / resistive
safety edge and NO-TOUCH function. Both
program together and at the same time as if
they were a single safety edge on the receiver.
It is needed to see LED indicators on CAP
ACTIVE / CAP T to know which kind of
technology is detecting a collision (safety
edge) or prevent the collision (NO-TOUCH
function)

CAPTIVE SYSTEM
jcmtechnologies
25
Before programming, place the options selectors at the desired position. Any subsequent change will require a receiver
reset and reprogramming.
Press the PROG button on receiver and hold it until the desired mode is selected. LED's for R1 & R2 will flash in
sequence to select the correct operation mode.
There are four programming modes, depending on the inputs you wish to use of the transmitter and the outputs
required to activate on the receiver.
The receiver allows programming 6 safety edges (3 for Relay 1 and 3 for Relay 2). A safety edge can only be
programmed to one receiver.
In case of CAP ACTIVE/CAP T, safety edge is IN1 and NO TOUCH function is IN2

7. Checking and maintenance
7.1. Does the equipment work properly?
Once the safety edge is wired and programmed into the receiver, R1 and / or R2 (according to programming mode) are
not illuminated (OFF). Also IN1 and IN2 LEDS at the transmitter are at OFF.
If the safety edge has been programmed in R1 and R1 LED is at ON, check that the safety edge is not pushed/detecting
(IN1 LED at ON on the transmitter) or it is not properly configured (IN1 LED flashing on the transmitter). If IN1 LED is
at OFF and R1 LED is at ON, check status of other transmitters memorized.
The IN1 and IN2 LEDs of the transmitter will pass to battery saving mode (off) 5 minutes after pressing PROG on the
transmitter. They can re-awaken again pressing the PROG button on the transmitter.
If there is no safety edge programmed in R1 and / or R2, it will be in safety mode (opened and LED at ON)
If R1 / R2 LEDs are OFF, but the door does not move, check that the wiring to the control panel is made correctly as
safety contact or resistive safety edge input.
Check also if LED indicator on MAGIN detector changes to red color in the desired inhibition zone, and the INH LED on
the receiver is switched ON.
7.2. Check the correct operation
Press the safety edge to assure that the appropriate relay on the receiver is activated.
If not, see the Troubleshooting table, to check what is happening and how to solve it.

7.3. CHECK function
Ideal to know the radio coverage on the installation
Press the receiver’s CHECK button for at
least 1 second to enter check mode. The
indicator light will come on and four beeps
will be heard.
Perform a complete door opening and
closing manoeuvre. During the system
check a beep will be heard every 1,5
seconds. If no other acoustic signal is
heard on completing the manoeuvre, the
system is operating correctly. If the
communication with a transmitter fails during checking, or the communication is deficient, the receiver emits
three consecutive beeps, indicating that an error has occurred.
Press the installed safety edges to detect which one has failed.
Low coverage signal will increase battery consumption.
For exiting CHECK mode, press CHECK button or wait for 5 minutes. On exiting check mode, seven consecutive beeps
will be heard and the indicator light will flash continuously in case of failure.
This function has to be used to check the operation and range of all the devices once the installation has been carried
out.
