noeuvre near its actuating element.

– After installing the drive motor, make sure that the

mechanism, protective system and all manual manoeuvres function properly.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE

2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE

M-BAR and L-BAR are electromechanical boom gates for residential and industrial use, which control the opening and closing of a driveway. These barriers are equipped with an electromechanical gearmotor with a 24 V motor, an electric limit switch system and a warning light incorporated in the cover (optional accessory). These two models can be installed as counterposed barriers

in the “Master-Slave” mode, to cover the surface of a driveway exceeding 8 metres (see paragraph “Gearmotor in SLAVE

mode“).

The control unit is congured for being connected to the various devices belonging to the Nice Opera System and to the

“Solemyo” solar power system (see paragraph “Connecting the Solemyo solar energy system“).

The barriers work on electricity and in case of a power outage (blackout), the boom can be unlocked manually and moved by hand. Alternatively, it is possible to use the back-up battery (model PS224 - optional accessory) which ensures that certain

manoeuvres can be carried out in the rst few hours of a power

outage. To prolong this period or increase the number of al-

lowed manoeuvres, it is necessary to activate the “Stand-by”

function (see “Table 5“). The barriers must be combined with the available booms, individually or in pairs, to reach the desired length. Various optional accessories are available, depending on the chosen boom, as shown in the table.

3.1 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS

a

The installation must be carried out by qualied

personnel in compliance with the current legislation, standards and regulations, and with the instructions provided in this manual.

Before proceeding with the product’s installation, it is necessary to:

– check the integrity of the supply – check that all the materials are in good working order and

suited to the intended use

– check whether it is possible to observe the operating limits

specied in the paragraph “Product usage limits“

– check that the installation location is compatible with the over-

all clearance of the product (see “Figure 3“)

– check that the surface chosen for installing the boom gate is

solid and can ensure stable anchorage

– make sure that the installation area is not subject to ooding; if

necessary, the product must be installed appropriately raised above ground level

– check that the space surrounding the boom gate allows for

executing the manual manoeuvres easily and safely

– check that there are no obstacles along the boom’s path ca-

pable of hampering the opening and closing manoeuvres

– check that each device to be installed lies in a position that is

protected against the risk of accidental impact.

– verify that the mounting positions of the various devices are

protected against impacts and that the mounting surfaces are

sufciently sturdy

– prevent any parts of the automation from being immersed in

water or other liquids

– keep the product away from heat sources and open ames

and acid, saline or potentially explosive atmospheres; these

may damage the product and cause malfunctions or dangerous situations

– connect the control unit to an electricity supply line equipped

with a safety earthing system

3.2 PRODUCT USAGE LIMITS

Before proceeding with the product’s installation, it is necessary to:

– check that all the values appearing in the “TECHNICAL SPEC-

IFICATIONS” chapter are compatible with the intended use

– check that the estimated durability (refer to the paragraph “

Product durability”) is compatible with the intended use

– check that all limitations, conditions and warnings appearing

in this manual can be fully observed.

3.2.1 Product durability

The product’s durability is its average economic life value and is

strongly inuenced by the degree of severity of the manoeuvres:

in other words, the sum of all factors that contribute to product wear. To estimate the durability of your automated device, proceed as follows:

1. add the values of the items in “Table 2” relative to the

system’s conditions

2. in the graph shown in “Figure 2”, from the value obtained

above, trace a vertical line until it intersects the curve; from this point trace a horizontal line until it intersects the

line of the “manoeuvre cycles”. The value obtained is the

estimated lifetime of your product.

The durability values shown in the graph can only be obtained if the maintenance schedule is strictly observed – see the “PROD-

UCT MAINTENANCE” chapter. The durability is estimated on

the basis of the design calculations and the results of tests effected on prototypes. Being an estimate, therefore, it offers no

explicit guarantee of the product’s actual useful life.

Example of durability calculation: M5BAR with mobile support, level 3 speed and braking

“Table 2” shows the “severity indices” for this type of installation: 10% (“Mobile support”), 10% (“Level 3 speed”) e 10% (“Braking”).

These indicators must be added together to obtain the overall

severity index, which in this case is 30%. With the value calculated (30%), identify along the graph’s horizontal axis (“severity index”) the value corresponding to the number of “manoeuvre cycles” that the product can perform throughout its lifetime =

roughly 550.000 cycles.

Note 1 If the power supply cable is longer than 30 m, a cable

with larger cross-sectional area (3 x 2.5 mm

) must be used and a safety earthing system must be installed near the automation.

Note 2 If the BlueBus cable is longer then 20 m, up to maxi-

mum 40 m, it is necessary to use a cable with a greater

cross-sectional area (2 x 1 mm

Note 3 These two cables can be replaced by a single 4 x 0.5

cable.

Note 4 Before making the connection, verify that the output is

programmed on the basis of the device to be connected (refer to the chapter “PROGRAMMING“).

a

The cables used must be suited to the type of environment of the installation site.

a

When laying the pipes for routing the electrical cables, take into account that any water deposits in the junction boxes may cause the connection pipes to form condensate inside the control unit, thus damaging the electronic circuits.

a

Before proceeding with the installation, prepare the required electrical cables by referring to “Figure 5” and to that stated in the “TECHNICAL SPECIFICA- TIONS” chapter.

3.6 ADJUSTING THE BOOM GATE

The boom gate is factory-set in the following way:

– balancing spring fastened to the right, installation selector on

the right, anchored through non-permanent holes

– closing manoeuvre of the boom towards the left. These are random settings, therefore the following checks must be carried out to understand whether they must be changed:

– if a single accessory will be installed: identify in box “A”

in “Figure 6” your boom gate version, the length of the boom and, lastly, the accessory you intend mounting on the boom; with this data, read the corresponding letter and the number relative to the holes to be chosen to attach the spring

– if multiple accessories will be installed: identify in box “B”

in “Figure 6” your boom gate version, the length of the boom and, lastly, the type and number of accessories you wish to mount on the boom; add the numbers in brackets linked to the accessories and use the result of the addition to read, in the lower part of box “B”, the letter and the number relative to the holes to be chosen to attach the spring

– if the boom must close tot he right of the motor: the spring’s

attachment must be shifted to one of the holes located on the other arm of the balancing lever.

3.7 INSTALLING THE GEARMOTOR

a

Incorrect installation may cause serious physical injury to the person working on the system or to its future users.

Before starting to assemble the automation, complete the preliminary checks described in the “Pre- installation checks” and “Product usage limits” paragraphs.

If there is a support surface:

1. open the cubicle panel

2. place the cubicle on the anchoring surface and mark the

points corresponding to the slots

3. move the cubicle and drill the surface through the marked

points

4. insert 4 expansion bolts (not supplied)

5. arrange the cubicle properly and secure it with the appro-

priate nuts and washers (not supplied).

If there is no support surface:

1. dig the hole to insert the foundation plate

Note The anchoring surface must be completely at and

smooth. If the surface is made of concrete, the latter must be at least 0,15 m thick and must be suitably reinforced with iron cages. The concrete must have a volume above 0.2 m

(a 0.25 m thickness corresponds to

0.8 m

, that is, equal to a square base with sides each

measuring roughly 0.9 m). The plate can be anchored to

the concrete using the 4 expansion bolts, equipped with

12 MA screws capable of withstanding a tensile load of at least 400 kg. If the anchoring surface is made of a different material, it is necessary to verify its consistency and whether the four anchoring points can withstand a load of at least 1,000 kg. Use the 12 MA screws to fasten the plate.

2. arrange the pipes for routing the electrical cables

3. fasten the four anchor bolts (A) to the foundation plate, in-

serting a nut and washer (supplied) on each, on the upper and lower sides of the plate

m

The lower nut must be screwed up to the end of the thread.

ENGLISH – 11

4. pour the concrete and, before it starts to set, place the

foundation plate ush with the surface, parallel to the

boom and perfectly level

5. wait for the concrete to set completely, which generally

takes two weeks

6. remove the four upper nuts and washers (B) from the an-

chor bolts

7. open the cubicle panel (“Figure 8“)

8. arrange the cubicle properly and secure it with the ap-

propriate nuts and washers removed previously (“Figure 17“).

3.8 INSTALLING THE BOOM

Proceed as follows to mount the boom of the gate:

1. insert the two pins (A) through the appropriate housings

on the exit motor shaft

2. place the support (B) on the exit motor shaft, orienting it in

the “vertical boom” position

3. fasten it with the appropriate screws and open Grower

washers; tighten vigorously

m

With booms consisting of two pieces, the shorter piece must be fastened to the cubicle.

4. position the cover (C) of the support and fasten it with the

6 screws provided; leave the screws loose

5. insert the aluminium connector (D) into one end of the

shortest boom and lock it with the screw provided

M-BAR L-BAR

12 – ENGLISH

6. only for booms made up of two pieces: connect the uni-

versal joint (E) into the free ends of the two booms, aligning the holes correctly; loosen the three screws of the joint equally so that the latter can be fastened inside the booms

7. lightly oil the aluminium rail on both sides

8. along the entire length of the boom, insert the rubber im-

pact protectors through the slots (F) alternating them with the relevant joints (G); the rubber protector can protrude roughly 1 cm from the end of the boom

9. put on the boom cap (H) and secure it with the two screws

10. position and t together the two rubber protector caps (I)

11. insert the complete boom into the shell (J) of the support

all the way to the end

12. vigorously tighten the 6 screws of the support inserted

previously.

l

After installing the boom and the rubber impact protector, before proceeding further, the other accessories – if relevant – must be installed on the boom. To install them, refer to the respective instruction manuals.

ENGLISH – 13

3.9 ADJUSTING THE MECHANICAL LIMIT

SWITCHES

To adjust the limit switches, proceed as follows:

1. unlock the gearmotor with the relevant key provided (refer

to the “Manually unlocking and locking the gearmotor” paragraph)

2. manually move the boom so that it completes a full open-

ing and closing manoeuvre

3. turn the screws of the mechanical stops (A - B) to adjust

the boom’s horizontal position, when it is closed, and its vertical position, when it is open

4. after making the adjustments, tighten the nuts vigorously.

3.10 BOOM BALANCING

The boom balancing operation is used to nd the best balance

between the overall weight of the boom, inclusive of the installed accessories, and the force opposed by the tension of the balancing spring.

To verify the spring tension, proceed as explained below.

For models M-BAR (“Figure 28”)

1. unlock the gearmotor with the relevant key provided (refer

to the “Manually unlocking and locking the gearmotor” paragraph)

2. manually move the boom to about half-way (45°) and

leave it stationary

3. if the boom tends to rise, reduce the tension of the spring

(A) by manually turning the latter clockwise. On the other hand, if the boom tends to fall, increase the tension by manually turning the spring anti-clockwise.

Note The imbalance is acceptable when the force required

to move the boom during the opening and closing manoeuvres and in all other positions is less than or equal to half the nominal value. The force required is therefore equal to roughly 1.5 kg for M3; 3.5 kg for M5; 4.5 kg for M7. The force is measured perpendicularly to the boom

at 1 m from the rotation axis.

45°

4. repeat the operation by positioning the boom also at

roughly 20° and 70°. If the boom remains stationary in its position, it means that it is correctly balanced; a slight imbalance is allowed, but the boom must never move substantially

5. loosen the nut (B) to block the balancing spring

6. lock the gearmotor.

For models L-BAR (“Figure 29”)

1. unlock the gearmotor with the relevant key provided (refer

to the “Manually unlocking and locking the gearmotor” paragraph)

2. manually move the boom to about half-way (45°) and

leave it stationary

3. if the boom tends to rise, reduce the tension of the spring by turning the nut (C) clockwise. On the other hand, if the boom tends to fall, increase the spring tension by manually turning the nut (C) anti-clockwise.

45°

Note The imbalance is acceptable when the force required

dicularly to the boom at 1 m from the rotation axis.

14 – ENGLISH

4. repeat the operation by positioning the boom also at

roughly 20° and 70°. If the boom remains stationary in its position, it means that it is correctly balanced; a slight imbalance is allowed, but the boom must never move substantially

5. lock the gearmotor.

3.11 MANUALLY UNLOCKING AND LOCKING THE GEARMOTOR

The gearmotor is equipped with a mechanical unlocking system that allows for opening and closing the boom manually. These manual operations should only be performed in case of a power outage, malfunctions or during the installation phases. To unlock the device:

1. insert the key (A) and turn it by 180° towards the left or right

2. the gate leaf can now be moved manually to the desired

position.

To lock the device:

1. turn the key (A) back to its initial position

2. remove the key.

To shift the lock cylinder to the opposite side of the gearmotor:

1. insert the key (A) and turn it by 180° clockwise

2. from inside the cubicle, pull downwards the U-shaped spring (B) that locks the lock cylinder

3. remove the cylinder (C) from the cubicle by pulling it out-

wards

4. remove the rubber cap on the opposite side of the cubicle

and insert the lock cylinder through the hole

5. from inside the cubicle, insert from bottom to top the U-shaped spring to lock the lock cylinder

6. turn the key (A) back to its initial position

7. remove the key.

FINAL CHECKS AND START-UP

5 FINAL CHECKS AND START-UP

5.1 CHOOSING THE DIRECTION

Choose the direction of the opening manoeuvre on the basis of the gearmotor’s position. Set the switching device as follows:

– set it to the RH if the spring is attached to the right-hand side

of the balancing lever (factory setting)

– set it to the LH if the spring is attached to the left-hand side of

the balancing lever

5.2 POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION

a

The power supply connections must only be made

by qualied and experienced personnel possessing

the necessary requirements and in full conformity to the laws, regulations and standards in force.

Connect the control unit to a power line equipped with a safety earthing system. Install a circuit breaker with a contact gap that ensures full disconnection in the Category III overvoltage conditions, or mount a plug and socket system. As soon as the product is powered, a few simple checks should be carried out:

1. check that the display switches on.

2. make sure that the LEDs on the photocells (both the TX

and RX) also ash; the type of ashing is irrelevant, since

it depends on other factors.

3. check that the device connected to the FLASH output or the LED warning light XBA7 is switched off (with factory setting).

If the above conditions are not satised, immediately switch

off the power supply to the control unit and carefully check the electrical connections. Further useful information on searching and diagnosing faults is included in the “Troubleshooting” paragraph.

5.3 DEVICE LEARNING

After connecting the power supply, the control unit must learn the devices connected to the “BlueBUS” and “STOP” inputs.

m

The learning phase must be carried out even if no device is connected to the control unit.

18 – ENGLISH

Start the procedure by activating parameter Set 1 (refer to the chapter “PROGRAMMING“). The self-learning phase of the connected devices can be repeated at any time also after the installation, for example whenever a device must be added.

5.4 LEARNING OF THE MECHANICAL STOP POSITIONS

Once the connected devices have been learned, the mechanical stop positions must be learned (maximum opening and maximum closing). To do this:

1. unlock the gearmotor with the relevant key provided (refer to the “Manually unlocking and locking the gearmotor” paragraph)

2. manually move the boom to about half-way (45°) and leave it stationary

3. lock the gearmotor

4. start the level search procedure by activating parameter Set 2 (refer to the chapter “PROGRAMMING“)

5. while the manoeuvres are being executed, make sure that

the boom’s balancing lever strikes the mechanical stops of the limit switch. If this does not occur, stop the procedure by pressing encoder (A), adjust the mechanical stops of the limit switch and repeat the procedure from the beginning

a

Do not interrupt the execution of the manoeuvres: if this occurs, the entire procedure must be repeated from the beginning.

5.5 CHECKING THE BOOM’S MOVEMENT

Once the devices have been learned, it is advisable to carry out a few manoeuvres in order to verify that the gate moves properly.

To do this:

1. press the

button to command an “Open” manoeuvre; check that the boom starts slowing down before reaching the open position

2. press the

button to command a “Close” manoeuvre; check that the boom starts slowing down before reaching the closed position

3. during the manoeuvre, check that the LED warning light, if

present, ashes alternatively on and off every 0.5 seconds

4. open and close the gate several times to make sure that

there are no points of excessive friction and that there are

no defects in the assembly or adjustments.

5.6 CONNECTING OTHER DEVICES

If the user needs to power external devices, such as a radio

receiver or the light of the key selector switch, power can be

tapped as shown in the gure.

The power supply voltage is 24Vc -30% ÷ +10% with a maxi- mum available current of 500mA.

TESTING AND COMMISSIONING

6 TESTING AND COMMISSIONING

These are the most important phases of the automation’s con-

struction, 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 qualied 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 denes the test methods for checking gate automations.

The additional devices must undergo specic testing, both in

terms of their functions and their proper interaction with the control unit. Refer to the instruction manuals of the individual devices.

6.1 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 match-

es the specications. 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

ENGLISH – 19

5. verify the correct operation of all the safety devices pres-

ent, one-by-one (photocells, sensitive edges, etc.)

6. verify the correct operation of the photocells in the follow-

ing 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 reective 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

300

200

700

500

– if the test is on two pairs of photocells, the test must

rst 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

300

200

700

300

200

700

500

150

– 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 mov-

ing it close to the TX photocell rst 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)

8. check on the safeguard against the lifting hazard: in automations with vertical movement it is necessary to verify that there is no lifting hazard. This test can be carried out in the following way:

– hang a 20 kg load (e.g. a sand bag) midway along the

boom’s length

– send an opening command and check that during the

manoeuvre the boom does not exceed a height of 50

cm above its closed position

– if the boom exceeds this height, the motor force must

be reduced (refer to the chapter “PROGRAMMING“)

9. if potentially dangerous situations due to the boom’s movement have been prevented by limiting the impact force, the latter must be measured according to the EN

12445 standard and, if the “motor force” control is used

to aid the system in reducing the impact force, it is neces-

sary to test various adjustments to nd the one that gives

the best results

10. checking the efciency of the unlocking system:

– put the boom in the closed position and manually un-

lock it (see paragraph “Manually unlocking and lock- ing the gearmotor“)

– verify that this occurs smoothly – verify that the manual force to move the boom during

the opening phase does not exceed 200 N (roughly 20

kg)

– the force is measured perpendicularly to the boom at 1

m from the rotation axis

11. verication of the power supply disconnection system: operate the power disconnection device and dis-

connect any available back-up batteries; check that all the LEDs on the control unit are OFF and that the boom remains stationary when a command is sent. Check the efciency of the locking system to prevent any unintentional or unauthorised connection.

20 – ENGLISH

6.2 COMMISSIONING

a

Commissioning can only be performed after all testing phases have been successfully completed.

a

Before commissioning the automation, ensure that the owner is properly informed of all residual risks and hazards.

a

The gate cannot be commissioned partially or under “temporary” conditions.

To commission the automation:

1. compile the automation’s technical le, which must in-

clude the following documents: overall drawing of the automation, wiring diagram, risk assessment and relative solutions adopted, the manufacturer’s declaration of conformity for all devices used and the declaration of conformity compiled by the installer

2. afx a permanent label or sign on the cubicle specifying

the operations for unlocking the gate and manoeuvring it manually “Figure 41“

3. afx a data plate to the cubicle specifying at least the

following data: type of automation, name and address of the manufacturer (responsible for commissioning), serial number, year of manufacture and CE mark

4. compile the declaration of conformity of the automation

and hand it to the owner of the automation

5. compile the User Manual of the automation and hand it to

the owner of the automation

6. compile and provide the owner with the automation’s

“Maintenance schedule”, containing the maintenance instructions for all the automation’s devices.

PROGRAMMING

7 PROGRAMMING

The control unit can be programmed by rotating the incremental encoder (A), pressing the same encoder vertically and using the display (B).

l

Refer to “Table 5” for the complete list of parame- ters and the relative selectable values.

7.1 PROGRAMMING THE CONTROL UNIT

Turning clockwise or anti-clockwise the encoder (A) allows for scrolling on the display (B) the parameters shown in “Table 5”, which identify the Level 1 menu. After identifying the desired Level 1 parameter, on the basis of the required programming, press and release the encoder (A) to

move to Level 2, where the value appears of the memorised or default parameter (xed display) appears referred to the Level 1

parameter just selected. Turning the encoder (A) causes the Level 2 values to scroll (ashing display). After selecting the value by pressing the encoder (A), the system returns to Level 1.

Among the optional values that can be displayed there are “ESC” and “---“: after selecting “ESC” by pressing and releasing the encoder (A), the system returns to the Level 1 parameters without modifying the programming, while the value “---” identies the programming made through the Oview external programmer. This value cannot be selected as a mere Level 2 parameter.

7.2 SPECIAL FUNCTIONS

7.2.1 “Move anyway” function

This function can be used to operate the automation even one or more some safety devices fail to work properly or are out of order. The automation can be controlled in “hold-to-run” mode by proceeding as follows:

1. send a command to move the gate, using a transmitter or

key selector, etc. If everything works properly, the boom will move normally, otherwise proceed with point 2

2. within 3 seconds, press the control again and hold it down

3. after roughly 2 seconds, the gate will complete the re-

quested manoeuvre in “Hold-to-run” mode, in other words, it will continue to move so long as the control is held down.

l

When the safety devices fail to work, the warn-

ing light will emit a few ashes to signal the

type of problem. To verify the type of anomaly, consult the “TROUBLESHOOTING... (troubleshooting guide)” chapter.

7.2.2 “Maintenance notice” function

This function warns the user when the automation requires a maintenance check.

The “Maintenance notice” parameter can be adjusted using the

Oview programmer. The maintenance request signal is given through the Flash warning light or by the maintenance indicator, depending on the type of programming chosen.

l

The “Flash” warning light and the maintenance indicator give the signals indicated in “Table 7” based on the number of manoeuvres completed with respect to the set limit.

Table 7

Flashes for the entire duration of the manoeuvre

Exceeding 100% of the limit

Remains lit for 2 seconds at the start and end of the manoeuvre then carries on normally

Flashes always

7.2.3 Verifying the number of manoeuvres completed

The number of manoeuvres completed can be checked through the control unit (refer to “Table 5”) or with the Oview program-

mer, under “Maintenance”.

7.2.4 Manoeuvre counter resetting

Once maintenance has been performed on the system, the manoeuvre counter must be reset. Resetting can only be done through the Oview programmer.

TROUBLESHOOTING... (troubleshooting guide)

8.1 TROUBLESHOOTING

The table below contains useful instructions to resolve any malfunctions or errors that may occur during installation or in case of a fault.

30 – ENGLISH

Table 8

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problems Recommended checks

The radio transmitter does not control the gate and the LED on the transmitter does not light up

Check whether the transmitter batteries are exhausted and replace them if necessary.

The radio transmitter does not control the gate but the LED on the transmitter lights up

Check whether the transmitter has been memorised correctly in the radio receiver.

No manoeuvre is commanded

Check that the gearmotor is being powered with the mains voltage Check whether fuses F1 and F2 are blown; if they are, identify the cause of the failure then replace the fuses with others having the same current rating and characteristics.

No manoeuvre starts and the warning light is off

Check that the command is actually received. If the command reaches the Step-by-Step input, the corresponding “SbS” LED must light up; if instead the radio transmitter is used, the “BlueBus” LED must emit two quick ashes.

No manoeuvre starts and the

warning light ashes a few times

Count the number of ashes and check the corresponding value in “Table 14”.

The manoeuvre starts but is immediately followed by a reverse run

The selected force could be too low for this type of boom. Verify that the boom is correctly balanced and select a higher force, if necessary.

The manoeuvre is carried out at slow speed

The manoeuvre does not start from one of the limit switches or the control unit does not learn the limit switch. Check the electrical connection of the limit switch.

The Slave barrier does not complete the manoeuvres

Check that the “Master-Slave” learning phase was carried out on both barriers.

The manoeuvre is carried out in the opposite direction

Check that the installation selector is in the correct position (see paragraph “Choosing the direction“).

8.2 DIAGNOSTICS

The control unit contains the following diagnostics functions:

– signalling on the control unit through LED – diagnostics through the display – error signalling through the display – warning light signals.

8.3 SIGNALS ON THE CONTROL UNIT

The LEDs near the control unit’s terminals issue special signals to indicate both normal operation and any anomalies. The following table describes the causes and solutions for each type of signal.

FURTHER INFORMATION (Accessories)

9 FURTHER DETAILS (Accessories)

9.1 FULL DELETION OF THE CONTROL UNIT’S MEMORY

All the data memorised in the control unit can be deleted and the latter can be restored to its initial factory values.

To do this, go to the “ER5” programming parameter (refer to the

chapter “PROGRAMMING“).

l

With this procedure it is possible to also delete any errors left in the memory.

m

This procedure does not delete the number of manoeuvres completed.

9.2 ADDING OR REMOVING DEVICES

Once the automation has been assembled, it is possible to add or remove devices at any time. In particular, various types of devices can be connected to the “BlueBUS” and “STOP” inputs, as described in the following paragraphs.

m

After having added or removed devices, these must be learned as described in the “Learning of other devices” paragraph.

34 – ENGLISH

9.2.1 BlueBUS

BlueBUS is a technique that allows for connecting compatible devices with only two wires which carry the electrical power and the communication signals. All devices are connected in parallel on the same 2 BlueBUS wires and without having to observe the polarities; each device is recognised because it is assigned a univocal address during the installation phase. The following devices can be connected to the BlueBUS: photocells, safety devices, control buttons, signalling lights, etc. The control unit recognises all the connected devices individually through an appropriate learning phase, and can detect all possible anomalies with absolute precision. For this reason, whenever a device is connected to or removed from BlueBUS, the learning phase must be carried out on the control unit, as described in the “Learning of other devices” paragraph.

9.2.2 STOP input

STOP is the input that causes immediate stoppage of the manoeuvre followed by its brief reversal. Devices with output fea-

turing normally open “NO” and normally closed “NC” contacts, as well as devices with 8.2 kΩ xed resistor output, such as

sensitive edges, can be connected to this input. As with the BlueBUS, the control unit recognises the type of device connected to the STOP input during the learning phase (see the “Learning of other devices” paragraph); subsequent- ly the control unit gives a STOP command when it detects a variation with respect to the recognised status. Multiple devices, even of different types, can be connected to the STOP input if suitable arrangements are made:

– Any number of NO devices can be connected to each other

in parallel.

– Any number of NC devices can be connected to each other

in series.

– Two devices with 8.2 kΩ xed resistor output can be connect-

ed in parallel; if there are more than 2 devices then they must

all be connected in cascade, with a single 8.2 kΩ terminating

resistor.

– It is possible to combine two NO and NC contacts by placing

them in parallel, while also mounting a 8.2 kΩ resistor in series

with the NC contact (this also allows for combining 3 devices:

NA, NC and 8.2 kΩ).

a

If the STOP input is used to connect devices with

safety functions, only those devices with 8.2 kΩ xed resistor guarantee Category 3 safety against

faults in accordance with the EN 13849-1 standard.

9.2.3 Photocells

To allow the control unit to recognise the devices connected through the “BlueBUS” system, these devices must be addressed. This operation can be carried out by correctly positioning the electrical jumper present in each device (also refer to the instruction manual of each device). Shown below is an addressing diagram for photocells, based on their type.

l

It is possible to connect two photocells to the “Bluebus” input with the “FA1 open” and “FA2 open” command function (jumper A on the back of the TX and RX boards must be cut). When these photocells intervene, the control unit commands an opening manoeuvre. For further information, refer to the instruction manual for the photocells.

m

At the end of the installation procedure, or after photocells or other devices have been removed, it is necessary to complete the learning procedure (see the “Device learning” paragraph).

9.2.4 EDSP digital selector and proximity reader for ETPB transponder cards

The “Bluebus” system allows for connecting up to four EDSP digital selectors or four ETPB transponder card readers. With EDSP it is possible to command the automation by entering on the keyboard one of the memorised numerical combinations. With ETPB it is possible to command the automation by simply moving the memorised transponder card close to the sensor. These devices are equipped with a unique code that it learned and memorised by the control unit during the learning phase of all the connected devices (see paragraph “Device learning“). This prevents any fraudulent attempt to replace a device and any unauthorised person from commanding the automation. For further information, consult the EDSP and ETPB instruction manual.

ENGLISH – 35

9.2.5 Learning of other devices

Normally the learning of devices connected to “BlueBUS” and the “STOP” input takes place during the installation stage; how- ever, if new devices are added or old ones removed, the learning process can be redone. Start the procedure by activating parameter Set 1 (refer to the chapter “PROGRAMMING“).

m

After having added or removed devices, the auto-

mation test must be carried out again as specied

in the “Testing” paragraph.

9.3 GEARMOTOR IN SLAVE MODE

When properly programmed and connected, the motor can function in the SLAVE mode; this operating mode is used when two counterposed barriers must be automated and the barriers must move in a synchronised manner. In this mode, one motor functions as a MASTER and commands the manoeuvres,

while the second motor functions as a SLAVE, executing the

commands transmitted by the MASTER (all motors devices are MASTERS by default). The connection between the SLAVE and the MASTER is made by connecting terminals 1-2 of the MASTER to terminals 1-2 of the SLAVE using two cables.

l

It is not important which motor functions as MASTER or SLAVE; the choice must take into account the ease of the connections and the fact that the “Step-by-Step”, “Open” and “Close” commands on the SLAVE device allow for commanding the SLAVE barrier only.

Perform the following operations to install two motors in MASTER and SLAVE mode:

1. install the two motors

2. connect the two motors as shown in “Figure 47”

3. select the direction of the opening manoeuvre of the two

motors (see paragraph “Choosing the direction“)

4. make the other electrical connections (refer to the chapter “ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS“)

5. power the two motors (see paragraph “Power supply connection“)

6. in the SLAVE barrier:

– perform learning of the connected devices (see para-

graph “Device learning“)

– perform learning of the opening and closing positions

(see paragraph “Learning of the mechanical stop po- sitions“)

– adjust the force and speed – activate the “SLAVE mode” parameter (refer to the

chapter “PROGRAMMING“)

– error “E5” will appear to signal a Master-Slave commu-

nication error, because the MASTER barrier has not yet been paired with the SLAVE barrier

m

Bear in mind that during operation all the settings made on the SLAVE barrier are ignored, since those made on the MASTER barrier prevail, with the exception of the speed, slowdown speed, slowdown position and force settings, which have an impact on the SLAVE barrier only.

7. in the MASTER barrier:

– perform learning of the connected devices (see para-

graph “Device learning“)

– perform learning of the opening and closing positions

(see paragraph “Learning of the mechanical stop po- sitions“)

8. send a command from the MASTER control unit to com-

plete a manoeuvre and verify that it is carried out also by

the SLAVE barrier. In connecting the two motors in SLAVE-MASTER mode, verify that:

– all devices must be connected to the MASTER motor (as

shown in “Figure 47”), including the radio receiver

– when using back-up batteries, each motor must have its own

battery

On the SLAVE motor it is possible to connect:

– an own warning light (Flash) – an own Open Gate Indicator (OGI) – boom lights – an own sensitive edge (Stop) – own control devices (SbS, Open and Close) that command

the SLAVE barrier only

– the Loop1 and Loop2 inputs programmed with the “Open”

and “Close” modes.

INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNINGS FOR THE USER

Before using the automation for the rst time, ask the installer to explain the origin of any residual risks and take a few minutes

to read this instruction manual and warnings for the user given to you by the installer. Store the manual for future reference and hand it to the new owner when transferring the automation.

a

WARNING!

Your automation is a machine that faithfully executes commands imparted by the user. Negligence and improper use may lead to dangerous situations:

– do not manoeuvre the gate if there are people, animals

or objects within its range of operation

– it is strictly forbidden to touch parts of the automation

while the boom is moving

– the photocells are not a safety device but only an aux-

iliary aid to safety. They are built using highly reliable

technology but, in extreme conditions, may malfunction

or even become defective. In certain cases, the defect may not be clearly evident. For these reasons, it is important to follow all the instructions given in this manual when using the automation

– periodically check that the photocells work properly.

a

IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN to transit while the boom is moving! Transit is allowed only if the boom is fully open and stationary.

a

CHILDREN

An automation system guarantees a high degree of safety. With its detection systems, it can control

and guarantee the gate’s movement in the presence

of people or objects. It is nonetheless advisable to forbid children from playing near the automation and not to leave remote controls near them to prevent any unwanted activation of the system. The automation is not a toy!

The product is not intended for use by persons, including children, with limited physical, sensory or mental capacities, or who lack experience or knowledge, unless supervised or trained in the use of the product by a person responsible for their safety.

Anomalies: if the automation shows any signs of anomalous be-

haviour, disconnect the power supply to the system and manually unlock the motor (see instructions at the end of the chapter) to manoeuvre the boom manually. Do not attempt any repairs personally but contact your trusted installer.

l

Do not modify the system or the programming and adjustment parameters of the control unit: your installer is exclusively responsible for these operations.

Failure or lack of power supply: while waiting for the install-

er to intervene or the electricity to be restored, if the system is not equipped with back-up batteries, the automation can nonetheless be used by manually unlocking the motor (consult the instructions at the end of the chapter) and moving the boom manually.

Safety devices out of order: the automation can also be used when one or more safety devices are defective or out of order. The gate can be operated in the “Hold-to-run” mode in the fol- lowing way:

1. send a command to operate the boom using a transmit-

ter or key selector, etc. If everything works normally, the boom will move regularly, otherwise the warning light will

ash a few times and the manoeuvre will not start (the number of ashes depends on the reason for which the

manoeuvre cannot start)

2. in this case, within 3 seconds press the control again and

hold it down

3. after roughly 2 seconds, the boom will complete the requested manoeuvre in “Hold-to-run” mode, in other words, it will continue to move so long as the control is held down.

m

If the safety devices are out of order, have the sys-

tem repaired as soon as possible by a qualied

technician.

The test, periodic maintenance and any repairs must be documented by the person carrying out the work and the documents must be stored by the owner of the automation. The only interventions the user may carry out periodically include cleaning of the photocell glass components (use a soft and slightly damp cloth) and removing any leaves or stones that may obstruct the automation.

m

Before carrying out any maintenance operations, the user of the automation must manually unlock the motor to prevent anyone from accidentally triggering the boom’s movement (consult the instructions at the end of the chapter).

Maintenance: in order to ensure constant levels of safety and

the longest useful life for the automation, routine maintenance must be carried out (at least every 6 months).

l

Only qualied personnel is authorised to carry out

checks, maintenance operations and repairs.

Disposal: at the end of its useful life, the automation must be

dismantled by qualied personnel and the materials must be

recycled or disposed of in compliance with the local regulations in force. Replacing the remote control battery: if your remote control appears to be working poorly after some time, or stops working

altogether, it may simply depend on at batteries (depending

on how much the device is used, the batteries may last from several months to over a year). You will notice this by the fact that the indicator light signalling the transmission fails to light up, is weak or lights up only for a short time. Before contacting the installer, try replacing the battery with that of another transmitter that works properly: if the anomaly is resolved, simply replace

the at battery with one of the same type.

46 – ENGLISH

Unlocking and manual movement

To unlock the device:

1. insert the key (A) and turn it by 180° towards the left or

right

2. the gate leaf can now be moved manually to the desired

position.

To lock the device:

1. turn the key (A) back to its initial position

2. remove the key.

3. remove the rubber cap on the opposite side of the cubicle

and insert the lock cylinder through the hole

4. from inside the cubicle, insert from bottom to top the

U-shaped spring to lock the lock cylinder

5. turn the key (A) back to its initial position

6. remove the key.

ENGLISH – 47

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE (to be handed to the end user)

m

This maintenance register must be passed on to the new owner of the automation, after having lled in the

relevant sections.

This register must contain a list of all the maintenance activities, repair work and alterations to the automation. The register must be updated every time work is carried out and must be stored carefully so that it is available for any inspections that may be required by the relative authorities.

This “Maintenance register” refers to the following automation:

model: M-BAR and L9BAR - serial no. ................. - installed on ................. - at .................................................................

The following attached documents are part of the Maintenance Register:

1) - Maintenance schedule

2) - ............................................................................................

3) - ............................................................................................

4) - ............................................................................................

5) - ............................................................................................

6) - ............................................................................................

According to the enclosed document “Maintenance Schedule”, maintenance operations must be performed at the following intervals: every 6 months or every 50.000 manoeuvre cycles, depending on the event that occurs rst.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

m

Warning! – All maintenance work on this system must be carried out by qualied technical personnel, in full compliance with the safety standards provided for by the laws in force and the safety

instructions specied in the “GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS” chapter, at the

beginning of this manual.

In general, this boom gate mechanism does not require special maintenance; however, regular checks over time will ensure

system efciency and correct operation of the safety systems

installed. For maintenance of devices added to the boom gate mechanism, follow the provisions laid down in the respective maintenance schedules. As a general rule, it is advisable to perform a periodic check every 6 months or 50.000 manoeuvres. Bear in mind that should the spring break, the boom gate will nonetheless conform to the requirement set out in section 4.3.4 of the EN 12604:2000 standard.

m

The boom balancing system must be checked at least 2 times a year, preferably when the seasons change.

These checks and replacements must be performed at the scheduled maintenance intervals:

1. disconnect all power supplies

2. check for any deterioration of the components which form

the barrier mechanism, paying particular attention to cor-

rosion or oxidation of the structural parts; replace any

parts that are below the required standard

3. make sure that all screwed connections are properly tight-

ened (especially those of the balancing spring)

4. check that there is no clearance between the balancing

lever and the exit shaft. If necessary, fully tighten the central screw

5. lubricate the swivel head of the balancing spring and the

lower anchor

6. on versions M7BAR and L9BAR, check the perfect lock-

ing between the two boom segments. If necessary, adjust

the expansion screws.

7. place the boom in the vertical position and verify that the

pitch between the coils of the balancing spring is constant without any deformation

8. unlock and check the correct balancing of the boom and for any obstacles during manual opening and closing

9. relock the boom and run the testing procedure.

10. Verication of the safeguard against the risk of lifting:

on automations with vertical movement, it is necessary to check that there is no lifting danger. This test can be carried out as follows: hang a 20 kg load (e.g. a sand bag) halfway along the length of the boom then command an opening manoeuvre and check that during the manoeu-

vre the boom does not exceed a height of 50 cm above its closed position. If the boom exceeds this height, the

motor force must be reduced (refer to the “Programming the control unit” paragraph).

11. If potentially dangerous situations due to the boom’s movement have been prevented by limiting the impact force, the latter must be measured according to the EN

12445 standard and, if the “motor force” control is used

to aid the system in reducing the impact force, it is neces-

sary to test various adjustments to nd the one that gives

the best results.

12. Checking the efciency of the unlocking system: place

the boom in the “closed” position and manually unlock the

gearmotor (refer to the “Manually unlocking and locking the gearmotor” paragraph), making sure that this occurs

without difculty. Check that the manual force for moving the boom to the “open” position does not exceed 200 N (approximately 20 kg); the force is measured perpendicular to the boom and at 1 m from the axis of rotation. Lastly,

check that the manual release key is available near the automation.

13. Check the power supply disconnection system: operate the power disconnection device and disconnect any available back-up batteries; check that all the LEDs on the control unit are OFF and that the boom remains stationary when a command is sent. Check the efciency of the locking system to prevent any unintentional or unauthorised connection.
