This parameter enables the user to assign the automation with a name other than the original, to facilitate identification (e.g. northern gate”). A name comprising maximum 24 characters, including spaces, is admitted.
This parameter can be set with a value from 0 to 63; the factory setting is “0”. The series is a number that has to be assigned to each gearmotor, receiver or other device potentially connectable on a BusT4 network, to define its “classification area”. Subsequently, when using automations in a complex system, all devices with the same series number can be controlled simultaneously.
This parameter can be set with a value from 1 to 128; the factory setting is “2” for Receivers and 3 for Control Units. The address is a number that has to be assigned to each gearmotor, receiver or other device potentially connectable on a BusT4 network, to distinguish it from other devices in a series. Therefore all devices within a series must have a different address from one another.
This parameter can be set with a value from 1 to 14, or “None”; the factory setting is “None”. The function enables the user to assign a number to a device to be controlled (for example a gearmotor or other device poten­tially connectable to a BusT4 network), which enables this device to belong to a specific “command group”. Several devices, also if belonging to different series, can form part of the same group. Up to 14 groups of devices can be cre­ated and, in particular, the same device may be inserted in 4 different groups. In a device network, use of this function enables:
- simultaneous control of different devices inserted in a group, even if some of these belong to different series;
- use of a single receiver, installed in one of the devices belonging to the group, to control all the devices belonging to this group.
This function enables the display of the version of the firmware present in a device.
This function enables the display of the version of the hardware present in a device.
This function enables the display of the serial number identifying a specific device. This number is different for each device, even if of the same model.
This function is useful to restrict access by unauthorised personnel to all or some of the programming functions of a device. If a device is password protected, the user must perform the “log in” procedure to proceed with a programming session, followed by the “log out” procedure on completion of the programming procedure. Note – the “log out” procedure enables the user to
prevent access by unauthorised personnel, by re-activating the existing password. Caution! – When programming the pass­word on several devices (for example in Oview, the Control unit, Receiver etc.), we recommend using the same password for all devices including Oview. This will avoid the need to repeat the login procedure each time the device is changed during use of Oview and the connected Software.
Two types of password can be programmed on the devices (including Oview).
- the user password
, comprising maximum 6 alphanumeric characters. Caution! – Do not use uppercase letters.
- the installer password
, comprising maximum 6 alphanumeric characters. Caution! – Do not use uppercase letters.

COMMON FUNCTIONS
Robus 600-1000 – 3
Installation
This function enables start-up of the procedure for learning the devices connected to the Bluebus input and the HALT input of the control unit of an automation. Important – To activate the device search, press “Start”.
This function enables the measurement of the distance between the Closing limit position and Opening limit position (length of the gate leaf). This measurement is used by the control unit to censure the precise calculation of the points (positions) at which the gate leaf must start to decelerate during a manoeuvre and to determine the partial opening positions. To activate the posi­tion search, press “Start”.
maximum opening This function enables the display of the Opening limit position, after the relative learning procedure has been completed.
deceleration on opening This function is expressed in metres. This enables programming of the precise point (position) at which the gate should start decelerating before reaching the limit switch at the end of the Opening manoeuvre. After programming the required point, press “OK” to save the value.
partial open 1 This function is expressed in metres. During the opening manoeuvre this enables programming of the precise point (position) at which the gate stops travel (partial open). After programming the required point, press “OK” to save the value.
partial open 2 This function is expressed in metres. During the opening manoeuvre this enables programming of the precise point (position) at which the gate stops travel (partial open). After programming the required point, press “OK” to save the value.
partial open 3 This function is expressed in metres. During the opening manoeuvre this enables programming of the precise point (position) at which the gate stops travel (partial open). After programming the required point, press “OK” to save the value.
deceleration on closing This function is expressed in metres. This enables programming of the precise point (position) at which the gate should start decelerating before reaching the limit switch at the end of the Closing manoeuvre. After programming the required point, press “OK” to save the value.
This function enables the user to delete the configuration of a control unit and the relative stored data, selecting items from a series. These items are:
positions – enables deletion of all memorised positions;bluebus devices – enables deletion of the configuration of the Bluebus devices and the HALT input;function values – enables deletion of all values and settings of functions envisaged on the control unit;all – enables the deletion of all data in the Control unit memory excluding the reserved parameters: series
, address, hard-
ware version
, software version, serial number.
Basic parameters
This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. This function enables the activation of automatic closure at the end of an opening manoeuvre in the control unit of the automation. If the function is active (ON) the automatic closure manoeuvre starts at the end of the wait time programmed in the function “pause time”. If the function is not active (OFF) the Control unit operation mode is “semiautomatic”.
This parameter is expressed in seconds and can be set with a value from 0 to 250 sec.; the factory setting is 30 sec. This func-

CONTROL UNIT FUNCTIONS
tion enables programming on the Control unit of the required wait time which must pass between the end of an Opening manoeuvre and the start of a Closing manoeuvre. IMPORTANT – This function is only enabled if the “automatic closure” func- tion is active.
active This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. The function enables the automation to remain in the Opening posi­tion only
for the time required for vehicle or person transit. When this interval elapses the Automatic Closure manoeuvre is acti-
vated automatically, which in turn is started after a time as set in the function “wait time”. Important – When the function is active (ON), operation varies according to the parameter set in the function “Automatic closure”:
with the function “Automatic closure” active
(ON), the Opening manoeuvre is stopped immediately after disengagement of
the photocells and, after the wait time set in “wait time”, the automation starts up the Closure manoeuvre. with the function “Automatic closure” not active (OFF), the automation completes the entire Opening manoeuvre (even if the photocells are disengaged beforehand) and, after the wait time set in “wait time”, the automation starts up the Closure manoeuvre.
Caution! – The function “reclose after photo” is disabled automatically if Stop command is sent during the manoeuvre in progress, to stop the manoeuvre.
mode This parameter is factory set on the mode “open until disengage” The function has 2 operating modes:
open all – when this mode is enabled, if the safety devices (photocells) are activated during a Closure manoeuvre, the
automation starts to perform a complete Opening manoeuvre. On the other hand, if the safety devices are disengaged, the automation starts up the automatic closure manoeuvre after the wait time as programmed in the function “closure delay time” has elapsed.
open until disengage – when this mode is enabled, if the safety devices (photocells) are activated during a Closure
manoeuvre, the automation starts to perform an Opening manoeuvre, which proceeds until the photocells are disengaged. At this point the manoeuvre is shut down and the automation starts the closure manoeuvre after the wait time as programmed in the function “closure delay time” has elapsed. Note – If the “Automatic closure” function is not active, the Control unit switches to “open all” mode.
wait time This parameter is expressed in seconds and can be set with a value from 0 to 250 sec.; the factory setting is 5 sec. This func­tion enables programming on the Control unit of the required wait time to pass between the end of an Opening manoeuvre and the start of a Closing manoeuvre.
active This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. This function is useful in the event of a power failure, even brief. In fact, during an Opening manoeuvre if the automation shuts down due to a power failure and the function is active (ON), the Clo­sure manoeuvre is performed normally when the electrical power is restored. On the contrary, if the function is not active (OFF), the automation remains stationary when the power is restored. Note – For reasons of safety, when the function is active, the
Closure manoeuvre is preceded by a wait time as programmed in the function “pre-flash time”.
mode This parameter is factory set on the mode “always close” The function has 2 operating modes:
standard – For this mode, refer to the function “active” under the item “always close”;
save automatic closure – When this mode is activated, there are two possible results after a power failure: a) execution
of automatic closure, observing the time as programmed in the function “pre-flash time”, if the timeout interval of this time was in progress at the time of the power failure; b) execution of closure manoeuvre if automatic closure was in progress at the time of the power failure and the manoeuvre had not been completed. Note – If the automatic closure manoeuvre was cancelled before the power failure (for example, by sending the Halt command), the Closure manoeuvre is not performed when the power is restored.
wait time This parameter is expressed in seconds and can be set with a value from 0 to 20 sec.; the factory setting is 5 sec. This function enables programming on the Control unit of the required wait time to pass between the end of an Opening manoeuvre and the start of a Closing manoeuvre.
manual force level This parameter can be set with a value from 10% to 100%; the factory setting is 100%. The function enables control of the force absorbed by the motor during execution of a manoeuvre.

open speed This parameter can be set with a value from 0% to 100%; the factory setting is 60%. The function enables programming of the required motor speed during an Opening manoeuvre. Important – When this parameter is modified, the control unit updates the “force” and “obstacle sensitivity” values during the subsequent manoeuvres.
open deceleration speed This parameter can be set with a value from 0% to 100%; the factory setting is 15%. The function enables programming of the required motor speed during the deceleration phase of an opening manoeuvre. Important – When this parameter is modified, the control unit updates the “force” and “obstacle sensitivity” values during the subsequent manoeuvres.
close speed This parameter can be set with a value from 0% to 100%; the factory setting is 60%. The function enables programming of the required motor speed during a Closing manoeuvre. Important – When this parameter is modified, the control unit updates the “force” and “obstacle sensitivity” values during the subsequent manoeuvres.
close deceleration speed This parameter can be set with a value from 0% to 100%; the factory setting is 15%. The function enables programming of the required motor speed during the deceleration phase of a closing manoeuvre. Important – When this parameter is modified, the control unit updates the “force” and “obstacle sensitivity” values during the subsequent manoeuvres.
active This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. When this function is set to “ON”, the values attributed to the func­tions associated with motor force and speed give the motor more power during the initial phase of a manoeuvre. This function is useful in the presence of static friction (for example, snow or ice which obstruct the automation). Note – If the function is not active (OFF) the Opening or Closing manoeuvre starts with a gradual acceleration.
start-up time This parameter is expressed in seconds and can be set with a value from 0.5 to 5 seconds; the factory setting is 2 seconds. The function enables programming of the duration of initial motor start-up. Important – The function is only effective if the “start-up” function is enabled (ON).
active This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. When this function is set to “ON” it enables the activation of a flash­ing time, which passes between activation of the flashing light and the start of an Opening or Closing manoeuvre. This time is adjustable and useful to for an advance indication of a hazardous situation. Important – When this function is not active (OFF), the flashing light is switched on at the same time as the start of the manoeuvre.
time in opening This parameter is expressed in seconds and can be set with a value from 0 to 10 seconds; the factory setting is 3 seconds. The function enables programming of the flashing time which indicates the imminent start of an Opening manoeuvre and is associ­ated with the “preflash” function.
time in closing This parameter is expressed in seconds and can be set with a value from 0 to 10 seconds; the factory setting is 3 seconds. The function enables programming of the flashing time which indicates the imminent start of a Closing manoeuvre and is associat­ed with the “preflash” function.
active This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. When this function is set to “ON”, automation power consumption can be reduced.
mode The function has 3 operating modes:
safety – when this mode is set, at the end of a manoeuvre and when the standby time has elapsed (parameter program-
mable in the function “wait time”), the control unit switches off the transmitters of the Bluebus photocells and all leds
, with the
exception of the Bluebus led, which flashes at a slower interval. Note – When the control unit receives a command, it auto­matically restores normal operation of the automation, and no longer in energy saving mode.
bluebus – when this mode is set, at the end of a manoeuvre and when the standby time has elapsed, the control unit
switches off the Bluebus output (devices) and all leds
, with the exception of the Bluebus led, which flashes at a slower inter-
val. Note – When the control unit receives a command, it automatically restores normal operation of the automation, and no longer in energy saving mode.

all – when this mode is set, at the end of a manoeuvre and when the standby time has elapsed, the control unit switches
off the Bluebus output (devices), some of the internal circuits and all leds, with the exception of the Bluebus led, which flash­es at a slower interval. Note – When the control unit receives a command, it automatically restores normal operation of the automation, and no longer in energy saving mode.
wait time This parameter is expressed in seconds and can be set with a value from 0 to 250 seconds; the factory setting is 60 seconds. The function enables programming of the time which must pass between the end of a manoeuvre and the start of the “stand­by” function, if the latter is active (ON).
This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. This function enables automation operation to be disabled, by set­ting the value to “ON”. In this case no type of command is acknowledged or performed, with the exception of “High priority step-step”, “Release”, “Release and close” and “Release and open”.
This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. This function disables operation of the keys present on the control unit.
This parameter type is ON/OFF; the factory setting is “OFF”. In the case of two gearmotors which must operate in synchronised mode, each installed on one of the two leafs of a gate or door, one must operate as a Master and the other as a Slave. To use this configuration, set the Master motor to “OFF” and the Slave motor to “ON”.
Advanced parameters

DESCRIPTION
The programmed light indicates the operating status of the control unit.
light off = application in maximum Closing position; slow flashing = application Opening manoeuvre execution
phase; quick flashing = application Closing manoeuvre execution phase; light permanently on = application in maximum Opening position.
The programmed light indicates the operating status of the control unit.
light on = application in maximum Opening position; light off = application in other positions.
The programmed light indicates the operating status of the control unit.
light on = application in maximum Closing position; light off = application in other positions.
The programmed light indicates the count of manoeuvres completed and therefore the need (or not) for system mainte­nance operations.
light on for 2 sec at start of Opening manoeuvre = number of manoeuvres less than 80%; light flashing during execution of entire manoeuvre = num­ber of manoeuvres between 80 and 100%;
light always flashing = number of manoeuvres over 100%.
This function enables the flashing light to indicate execution of a manoeuvre in progress with flashes at regular intervals (0.5 sec ON, 0.5 sec OFF).
This function type is ON/OFF. Important – For safety reasons, as the light is not controlled by a timer, use of an adequate light, able to withstand the heat of the light emitted, is recommended.
With this function programmed, when an Opening manoeuvre is performed the electric lock is activated for a time as set in the function “electric lock time – output configuration”.
With this function programmed, the suction cup is activated when the application is in the maximum Closing position. Note
– The suction cup is disabled in all other situations.
When the suction cup is disabled, before an Opening manoeu­vre is started, the time interval as programmed in the function “suction cup time – output configuration” is activated, which delays the start of the manoeuvre.
If this radio channel is set for the configuration of output 1 (flash), this channel is activated when a command is set with the transmitter. It is useful if installing external devices (for example, an auxiliary light) in the same system to be controlled with a single transmitter. WARNING – If this channel is not free on the control unit receiver, as previously memorised with a command, the con­trol unit activates exclusively the programmed output when the channel is activated with the transmitter, ignoring the com­mand to the motor.
This item covers the functions available and associable with Outputs 1 (flash) - 2 - 3 present on the control unit of an automa­tion. Each output has various functions as described in a table (Table 2, Table 3 etc):

This function enables the display of the events generated or received by the control unit. “Event” refers to a condition that changes the operating status of the control unit, for example: activation of an input, end of a manoeuvre, activation of a photo­cell or the alt input, etc. In this section the date and type of event can be displayed.
This function enables the firmware of a control unit to be updated with another compatible version, without the obligation to change the board. To update, proceed as follows:
01. Download the firmware update file (the software update is available at the site internet www.nice-service.com);
02. In “Advanced Functions” select “Update firmware”;
03. In the window displayed, select “Select file” and then select the update file previously downloaded. The data related to the
software of the device to be updated are displayed on the left of the window, while the data related to the update software and compatible hardware versions are displayed on the right;
04. If the file is compatible, the text “Update firmware” appears on the button, and when this is clicked, the update procedure is started. At the end of the procedure, if the message “Update completed successfully” is displayed, this means that the pro­cedure has bee completed. Otherwise, the message “Retry” appears on the button; in this case press the button again to repeat the update process.
If the update process is not completed, the user can retry a number of times, or return to the window “Device List”, selecting “Back” and then decide on how to proceed. In this window, the device previously selected will no longer be visible; to display the latter select the down arrow on the right of the window and select the function “Devices in boot phase”. This enables a search for devices ready for the firmware update phase. At this point the user can retry the update process, repeating the procedure described above. If the update is still not completed successfully, contact the Nice Assistance Service.
This function enables the installer to decide which functions and parameters are to be selected for display and modifications by the user. For example, for safety reasons, the installer can decide to prevent the user from modifying the parameters related to automation motor force and speed. User permits can be managed exclusively by using the “installer password” (password management, common functions).
