2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE
MC424L is an electronic control unit for the automation of swing gates MC424L can command 24 V WINGO, TOO, SFAB elec-
tro-mechanical actuators. it incorporates an amperometric device that veries the force of the motors connected to it. This system
allows for automatically detecting the limit switches, memorising the work times of each motor and detecting any obstacles during
normal gate movement. These characteristics simplify the installation considerably, as the leaf offsets and work times do not require
any adjusting.
The control unit is programmed in advance for the most frequently used functions and incorporates a radio receiver for the remote
controls. In addition, a straightforward procedure can be implemented to select more specic functions (see the “PROGRAMMING” chapter).
MC424L is equipped with an SM-type connector for slot-in radio receivers (see the “Connecting an SM-type radio receiver“
paragraph) and an IBT4N-type connector which, through the IBT4N interface, can be used to connect BusT4 devices, such as the
Oview programmer (see the “Connecting the IBT4N interface” paragraph).
The control unit is congured for being powered with PS124 back-up batteries which, in case of a power outage, function as an
emergency power supply (see the “Connecting the PS124 back-up battery” paragraph). Moreover, the MC424L is congured for
being connected to a Solemyo solar power kit (see the “Connecting the Solemyo system” paragraph).

AUX
NC NCNO NOC C
Most of the connections are extremely easy to make, as they are
largely connections directed at a single user or contact. Below
are some examples on how to connect external devices.
Connection of the selector to carry out the “STEP-BY-STEP”
functions and one of those relevant to the AUX auxiliary input
(PARTIAL OPENING, OPEN ONLY, CLOSE ONLY, etc.) (“Figure 10”).
4.2.4.1 Stand-by all / Phototest connection
The “Stand-by all” function allows for reducing consumption and
is active as a standard feature. It is automatically excluded only
when the “Phototest” function activates.
Note The “Stand-by all” and “Phototest” functions are alterna-
tive, as one excludes the other.
The possible connection options are listed below:
– with “Stand-by all” active (energy saving) (“Figure 7 A”)
– without “Stand-by all” and without “Phototest” (standard con-
nection) (“Figure 7 B”)
– without “Stand-by all” and with “Phototest” (“Figure 7 C”).
With the “Stand-by all” function active, 1 minute after the end of
the manoeuvre the control unit enters the “Stand-by all” mode
by switching off all the inputs and outputs to limit consumption.
The relevant status is signalled by the “OK” LED, which starts
ashing more slowly.
If the control unit is powered with a photovoltaic
m
panel (“Solemyo” system) or with a back-up battery, the “Stand-by all” function must be activated
as shown in the “energy saving” diagram (“Figure
7 A”).
When the “Stand-by all” function is not required, the “Phototest”
function can be activated, which can be used to verify – at the
start of each manoeuvre – whether the connected photocells are
working properly. To use this function, it is necessary to connect
the photocells appropriately (“Figure 7 C”) and then activate
the function.
Note By activating the “Phototest” function, the inputs sub-
ject to the testing procedure are PHOTO, PHOTO1 and
PHOTO2. If one of these inputs is not used, it must be
connected to the “PHOTOTEST” terminal (number 5)
("Figure 7 D").
10
4.2.4.3 Connecting the Open Gate Indicator / Electric
Lock
The OGI (Open Gate Indicator) output, if suitably programmed,
can be used as a “Open Gate Indicator”. The indicator light
will ash slowly during the opening phase and quickly during
the closing phase. It will remain steady lit with the gate open
(stopped) and off with the gate closed. If the output is programmed as an electric lock, it activates for 3 seconds whenever an opening manoeuvre starts (“Figure 11”).

4.2.5 ALT (STOP) input type
The MC424L control unit can be programmed to congure two
types of ALT (STOP) inputs:
– NC-type STOP for NC contacts
– Fixed resistor STOP type for connecting devices with 8.2 kΩ
xed resistor output (e.g. sensitive edges) to the control unit.
The input measures the resistor’s value and removes the manoeuvre consent when the resistor exceeds the nominal value. With suitable arrangements, normally open (NO), normally
closed (NC) and even multiple devices of a different type can
be connected to the ALT input, congured as a xed resistor
(see “Table 3”).

To connect ALT (STOP) with the “Stand-by all” func-
m
tion active, use terminal no. 5 and not no. 8 (see the
“Stand-by all / Phototest connection” paragraph).
4.3 INITIAL START-UP AND ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS TEST
After powering the control unit, carry out the following checks:
1. check that terminals “6-7” have roughly 30 VDC voltage
(“Figure 16”). If the values do not match up, immediately
disconnect the power supply and carefully check the connections and supply voltage.

12
Note 2 Multiple devices can be connected as NO and NC con-
tacts in parallel, taking care to place a 8.2 kΩ resistor in
series with the NC contact (this also allows for combining 3 devices: NO, NC and 8.2 kΩ (“Figure 13”).

Note 3 One or more NC-type devices can be connected in se-
ries to one another and to an 8.2 kΩ resistor without any
quantity limitation (“Figure 14”).

2. after the quick initial ash, the “OK” LED will signal the
correct operation of the control unit by ashing regularly
every second. When there is a variation on the control unit
inputs, the “OK” LED will emit a quick double ash to sig-
nal that the input has been recognised
3. if the connections have been made correctly the “NC”-
type inputs must have the corresponding LED lit, while the
“NO”-type inputs must have the corresponding LED off
(refer to “Figure 17“ and to “Table 4”).

If the motors do not start for the opening manoeu-

rst motor to move is not the one associated with
the upper leaf, invert M1 with M2.
If any one of these tests fails, disconnect the pow-
a
er supply to the control unit and check the various
electrical connections made previously.
4.4 MOTOR SELECTOR
The control unit is equipped with a selector (A - “Figure 19”) that
allows for specifying which type of motor to use (see “Table 5”).
4.5 AUTOMATIC LIMIT SWITCH SEARCH AND “STOP” INPUT ACQUISITION
Once the checks have been completed, the automatic search
for mechanical stop devices connected to the control unit can
start. This operation is necessary, as the control unit must detect
the duration of the opening and closing manoeuvres. The procedure is entirely automatic and consists in measuring the motor
effort to detect the mechanical stop devices during the opening
and closing phases.
Before starting the limit switch search, check that
m
all the safety devices give their consent (STOP,
PHOTO and PHOTO1 enabled). The intervention of
a safety device or the arrival of a command during
the procedure causes its immediate interruption.
The leaves MUST be positioned roughly halfway
along their path.

Press [Stop/Set] and [Close q] (“Figure 20”) for over 3 sec-
onds to start the automatic search phase.
The procedure entails:
– control and memorisation of the motor selector
– control and memorisation of the ALT input (NC / 8.2 kΩ)
– brief opening of both motors
– closing of the lower leaf motor up to the mechanical stop for
the closing phase
– closing of the upper leaf motor up to the mechanical stop for
the closing phase
– start of upper leaf motor opening
– after the programmed offset, start of the lower leaf opening
movement
– the control unit will measure the movement required so that
the motors can reach the mechanical stops for the opening
phase
– the control unit runs the complete closing manoeuvre. The
motors can start at different times. The aim is to have a stag-
gered closing of the leaves so as to avoid potential shearing
between the leaves
– end of the procedure with memorisation of all the measure-
ments recorded.
All these phases occur one after the other, without
m
any intervention by the operator.
If, for any reason, the procedure fails to advance
m
correctly, it must be interrupted by pressing the
[Stop/Set] button. The procedure must then be repeated (if necessary, by modifying the parameters,
for example the amperometric device thresholds
and the leaf delay – consult the “PROGRAMMING”
chapter).

This procedure can be repeated without having to
l
delete the memory.

5 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.
Testing and commissioning of the automation must be per-
formed by skilled and qualied 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 denes the test methods for checking gate automations.
The additional devices must undergo specic testing, both in
terms of their functions and their proper interaction with the control unit. Refer to the instruction manuals of the individual devices.
TESTING AND COMMISSIONING
5.1 TESTING
The sequence of steps to be performed when running the testing phase, as described below, refers to a typical system (“Fig-
ure 3”).
To run the test:
1. check that the activation of the STEP-BY-STEP (Sbs) input
triggers the “Open, Stop, Close, Stop” sequence
2. check that the activation of the AUX input (Type 1 partial
opening function) manages the “Open, Stop, Close, Stop”
sequence only for the upper leaf motor. The lower leaf motor must remain still during the closing phase
3. start an opening manoeuvre and verify that:
– when engaging FOTO (PHOTO) the gate continues the
opening manoeuvre
– when engaging FOTO1 (PHOTO1) the manoeuvre
stops until FOTO1 is disengaged. Subsequently, the
manoeuvre will resume the opening movement
– with FOTO2 (PHOTO2), after engaging this device, the
manoeuvre must stop and restart during the closing
phase
4. verify that when the leaf reaches the mechanical stop for
the opening phase, the motors switch off
5. start a closing manoeuvre and verify that:
– when engaging FOTO, the manoeuvre stops and re-
starts during the opening phase
– when engaging FOTO1 (PHOTO1) the manoeuvre
stops until FOTO1 is disengaged. Subsequently, the
manoeuvre will resume the opening movement
– when engaging FOTO2, the gate continues the closing
manoeuvre
6. verify that the stoppage devices connected to the STOP
input cause the immediate stoppage of any movement under way and a brief reversal
7. check that the level of the obstacle detection system is
suited to the application: during the manoeuvre, during
both the opening and closing phases, prevent the leaf’s
movement by simulating an obstacle and verify that the
manoeuvre reverses before exceeding the force specied
in the regulations
8. other checks can be necessary depending on the devices
connected to the inputs.
If an obstacle is detected for two consecutive ma-
a
noeuvres in the same direction, the control unit will
perform a partial reversal of both motors for one
second only. After the next command is given, the
leaves will start opening and the rst intervention of
the amperometric device for each motor will be regarded as a mechanical stop for the opening phase.
The same behaviour occurs when the mains power
supply is restored: the rst command is always an
opening command and the rst obstacle is always
regarded as a mechanical stop for the opening
phase.
5.2 COMMISSIONING
Commissioning can only be performed after all test-
a
ing phases have been successfully completed.
Before commissioning the automation, ensure that
a
the owner is properly informed of all residual risks
and hazards.
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. afx a data plate on the gate specifying at least the fol-
lowing data: type of automation, name and address of
the manufacturer (responsible for commissioning), serial
number, year of manufacture and CE mark
3. compile the declaration of conformity of the automation
and hand it to the owner of the automation
4. compile the User Manual of the automation and hand it to
the owner of the automation
5. compile and provide the owner with the automation’s
“Maintenance schedule”, containing the maintenance instructions for all the automation’s devices.
For all the above-mentioned documentation, Nice –
l
through its technical assistance service – provides
the following: pre-completed forms.

6.2 PRE-SET FUNCTIONS
The control unit has a few programmable functions, which are
pre-set in a typical conguration that suits most automations (see
“Table 6”). The functions can be modied at any time, both be-
fore and after the automatic limit switch search phase, through
appropriate programming procedures described below.

6.3 LEVEL 1 PROGRAMMING (ON-OFF)
All the Level 1 functions are set by default to “OFF” and can be modied at any time. Refer to “Table 7” to check the various func-
tions.
6.3.1 Level 1 programming procedure
The user has maximum 10 seconds to press the buttons consecutively during the programming procedure,
m
after which time the procedure terminates automatically and memorises the changes made up to then.
To perform Level 1 programming:
1. press and hold the [Stop/Set] button until LED “L1” starts ashing
2. press the [Open
] or [Close q] button to move the ashing LED to the LED associated with the function to be modied
p
3. press the [Stop/Set] button to change the status of the function:
– short ash = OFF
– long ash = ON
4. wait 10 seconds (maximum time) to exit the programming mode.
To set other functions to “ON” or “OFF”, while the procedure is running, repeat points 2 and 3 during the phase
l
itself.
LEVEL 1 FUNCTIONS (ON-OFF)

which the control unit automatically starts a closing manoeuvre. The pause time is set by default to 30
seconds. Pressing the [Stop/Set] button or the intervention of the “STOP” input stop the cycle.
Function NOT ENABLED: the system works in “semi-automatic” mode.
Function ENABLED: if the photocells intervene during the opening or closing manoeuvre, the pause
time drops to 4 seconds regardless of the set “pause time”. With “automatic closing” deactivated, if the
photocells intervene during the opening or closing manoeuvre, the “automatic closing” activates with a
4-second “pause time”.
Function ENABLED: in the event of a blackout, even of short duration, 10 seconds after the electricity
is restored the control unit detects that the gate is open and automatically starts a closing manoeuvre,
preceded by 5 seconds of pre-ashing.
Function ENABLED: phototest.
Instead of the “Stand-by all” function, the user can activate the “Phototest” function, which veries
whether the photocells function properly at the start of a manoeuvre. To use this function, the connect the
photocells correctly (see “Figure 7 C”) then activate the function.
Function NOT ENABLED: stand-by.
The control unit has the “Stand-by all” function set by default; if it is active, 1 minute after the end of the
manoeuvre the control unit switches off the “Stand-by all” function (terminal 5), all the inputs and the other
outputs to limit consumption (see “Figure 7 A”). This function is mandatory if the control unit is powered
exclusively through Solemyo photovoltaic panels. It is recommended even if the control unit is powered
from the mains and the user wishes to increase the emergency mode operation with the PS124 back-up
battery.

Function ENABLED: each command received triggers an opening manoeuvre that cannot be interrupted
by subsequent command impulses.
Function NOT ENABLED: each command received triggers an OPEN-STOP-CLOSE-STOP sequence,
which is useful when many people use the automation with radio commands.
Function ENABLED: if the function is enabled, the control unit can be congured to control heavy gates
by setting the acceleration ramp and closing slowdown speeds differently.
Function NOT ENABLED: if the function has not been enabled, the control unit is set for controlling light
gates.
6.4 LEVEL 2 PROGRAMMING (ADJUSTABLE PARAMETERS)
All Level 2 parameters are set by default as shown under “GREY” in “Table 8” and can be modied at any time. The parameters
can be adjusted to a value between 1 and 8. To check the value corresponding to each LED, refer to “Table 8”.
6.4.1 Level 2 programming procedure

The control unit has an auxiliary input that can be congured with
one of the following 6 functions.
Type 1 partial opening: performs the same function as the STEPBY-STEP input, triggering the opening of the upper leaf only. It
only works with the gate fully closed, otherwise the command is
interpreted as if it were a STEP-BY-STEP command.
Type 2 partial opening: performs the same function as the STEPBY-STEP input, triggering the opening of the two leaves for half the
time it takes for full opening. It only works with the gate fully closed,
otherwise the command is interpreted as if it were a STEP-BY-STEP
command.
Open Only: this input performs opening only with the Open-StopOpen-Stop sequence.
Close Only: this input performs closing only with the Close-StopClose-Stop sequence.
Photo 2: performs the function of the “PHOTO 2” safety device.
Excluded: this input does not manage any function.
Adjusts the motor speed during normal travel.
Adjusts the duration of the “brief reversal” of both motors, after
completing the closing manoeuvre, to reduce the residual nal
thrust.
The control unit features a system that measures the current
absorbed by the two motors and used to detect the mechanical
limit switches and any obstacles during the gate’s movement. As
the absorbed current depends on variable conditions (weight of the
gate, sources of friction, wind gusts, voltage uctuations, etc.), the
intervention threshold can be modied. There are 8 levels: level 1
is the most sensitive level (minimum force), while level 8 is the least
sensitive (maximum force).
Increasing the degree of amperometric sensitivity increases the
slowdown speed during the gate closing manoeuvre.
WARNING! – The suitably adjusted “amperometric” function
(together with other indispensable arrangements) can be
useful to ensure compliance with the EN 12453 and EN 12445
standards, which require the use of techniques or devices that
limit the force and dangerousness associated with automatic
door and gate movements.
Adjust the closing delay for the upper leaf motor.
It is programmed as a percentage of the work time.
The opening delay is half the time of the closing delay.

6.6.1.1 STANDARD memorisation (Mode 1: all buttons)
Procedures of this kind allow for simultaneously memorising,
during their execution, all the buttons on the transmitter. The
system automatically associates each button with a pre-dened
command, according to the following scheme:
Table 9

6.6.1.2 CUSTOM memorisation (Mode 2: one button
only)
Procedures of this kind allow for memorising, during their execution, a single button among those present on the transmitter.
The following commands can be paired with the buttons: Step-
by-Step, AUX, OPEN, CLOSE.
The installer decides which button to associate with the command on the basis of the automation’s needs.
6.6.2 Number of transmitters that can be memorised
The control unit’s receiver has 100 memory locations. A location
can memorise either a single transmitter (i.e. the combination of
its buttons and commands) or a single button with the relative
command.
6.6 MEMORISING THE TRANSMITTERS
The control unit incorporates a radio receiver compatible with all
transmitters that adopt the following NICE radio encoding protocols: FLO, FLOR, O-CODE and SMILO.
6.6.1 Procedure for memorising transmitter buttons
Among the available procedures for memorising transmitters,
some allow for memorising in “standard” mode (or Mode 1) and
others in “custom” mode (or Mode 2).
6.6.3 Transmitter memorisation and deletion procedures
To perform the procedures A, B, C and D described
a
below, the control unit’s memory must be unlocked.
If the memory is locked, perform the unlocking procedure described in the “LOCKING AND UNLOCK-
ING THE MEMORY” paragraph

6.6.3.3 PROCEDURE C - Memorising a transmitter by
means of another transmitter already memorised
(memorisation far from the control unit)
This procedure can be used to memorise a new transmitter by
means of a second transmitter, already memorised in the same
control unit. In this way, the new transmitter can receive the
same settings as those of the memorised transmitter. The user
does not have to intervene directly on the control unit’s [Radio
] button, as the procedure is simply carried out within the
R
control unit’s radius of reception.
To perform this procedure:
1. on the transmitter to be memorised: press and hold the
button to be memorised
2. on the control unit: after a few seconds (roughly 5) the
“LR” LED lights up
3. release the transmitter button
4. on the transmitter already memorised: press and slowly
release 3 times the memorised button to be copied
5. on the transmitter to be memorised: press and hold the
same button pressed at point 1 and wait for the “LR” LED
to emit 3 long ashes (= memorisation completed correctly)
6. release the transmitter button.
The “LR” LED can also emit the following signals: 1
l
fast ash, if the transmitter is already memorised, 6
ashes, if the transmitter’s radio encoding system
is not compatible with that of the control unit’s receiver, or 8 ashes, if the memory is full.

7 TROUBLESHOOTING... (troubleshooting guide)
Some devices are congured for signalling the operating status or the presence of any anomalies.
7.1 SIGNALLING THROUGH WARNING LIGHT
If a warning light is connected to the FLASH output on the control unit, the light will ash once every 1 second while the manoeuvre is being performed.
If any anomalies occur, the warning light will emit slow ashes
repeated twice with a 1-second interval. “Table 10” describes
the cause and possible solutions for each type of anomaly signalled by the warning light.
In case of anomaly, the “OK” LED will also emit signals. “Table
10” describes the cause and possible solutions for each type of
anomaly signalled by the “OK” LED.

7.3 MAINTENANCE NOTIFICATION
The control unit allows for notifying the user when to perform
maintenance on the automation. The signal is emitted once the
number of manoeuvres completed equals the value set for the
“Maintenance warning” adjustable parameter (see the “Table 8”
paragraph).
The maintenance request signal is emitted through the FLASH
warning light.
The FLASH warning light and the maintenance indicator emit the
signals indicated in “Table 13” based on the number of manoeu-
vres completed with respect to the set limit.

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.
WARNING!
a
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 gate or door 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.
IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN to transit through the
a
gate while it is closing! It is only possible to transit
through the gate when it is fully open and the leaves
are at a standstill.
CHILDREN
a
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 appears to behave strangely,
disconnect the power supply to the automation and manually
unlock the motor (consult the respective instruction manual) to
manoeuvre the gate manually. Do not perform any repairs personally, but contact your trusted installer.
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 “Person present” mode in the
following way:
1. send a command to operate the gate, with a transmitter
or key selector, etc. If everything works properly, the gate
will move normally, otherwise proceed as described below
2. within 3 seconds, press the control again and hold it down
3. after roughly 2 seconds, the gate will move in the “Person
present” mode, in other words, it will continue moving so
long as the control is held down.
If the safety devices are out of order, have the sys-
m
tem repaired as soon as possible by a qualied
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.
The user of the automation must manually unlock
m
the motor before starting any maintenance operation, to prevent other people from accidentally manoeuvring the gate (consult the respective instruction manual).
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).
Only qualied personnel is authorised to carry out
l
checks, maintenance operations and repairs.
Disposal: at the end of its useful life, the automation must be
dismantled by qualied personnel and the materials must be
recycled or disposed of in compliance with the local regulations
in force.
If the automation was locked using the “Lock auto-
l
mation” command, the gate will not move when a
command is sent and the warning light will emit 9
short ashes.
Do not modify the system or the programming and
l
adjustment parameters of the control unit: your installer is exclusively responsible for these operations.
Failure or power outage: while waiting for your installer to in-
tervene or the power supply to be restored, if the system is not
equipped with back-up batteries, the automation can be used
by manually unlocking the motor (consult the relative instruction
manual) and manually moving the gate leaf.
