1 Safety

1.1 Intended use

The roller door control unit RDC vision may only be used:

•to control motors in roller doors (max. motor power: 600 W);

•according to the instructions and safety information provided in these installation and operating instructions.

Any other use is considered improper use. The manufacturer is not liable for damage resulting from improper use.

The roller door control unit RDC vision (hereafter “control unit”) may not be used in conjunction with motors in roll-up grille doors.

1.2 Symbols used

All safety instructions are accompanied by signal words. These signal words indicate the level of danger and/or severity of injury and/or property damage that may be incurred in the event of failure to comply with the instructions and/or safety information.

•Danger indicates an imminent danger, causing: grave injury/death.

•Caution indicates potential danger, causing: minor injury or property damage.

For information and useful tips.

1.3 General safety instructions

Persons operating or working on the control unit must have first read and understood these installation and operating instructions and ensure compliance with all instructions and safety information.

Work on the control unit, such as installation, connection and initial operation, may only be carried out by a fully qualified electrician.

Always keep the installation and operating instructions within easy reach.

Always ensure compliance with local accident prevention regulations and current standards.

Always ensure compliance with the Employer’s Liability Rules “Power-operated windows, doors and gates – BGR 232” (only applies to operators in Germany).

RDC vision

When using the automatic close function, ensure compliance with the standard EN 12453:2000; install safety device (e.g., light barrier).

Only use OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) spare parts, accessories and fixing materials.

1.3.1 Remote control

The remote control may only be used for equipment and/or systems where interference in the transmitter or receiver does not pose a risk to humans, animals or objects, or where the risk is covered by other safety devices.

The user must be made aware that systems that pose an accident risk should only be remote controlled, if at all, if the user can actually see the door.

The radio remote control may only be used if the door’s movement can be watched and no persons or objects are within the range of movement.

Keep the transmitter somewhere where it cannot be pressed inadvertently, e.g., by children or animals.

The radio system is not protected from interference from other telecommunications systems or equipment (e.g., radio-controlled systems that are licensed to operate within the same frequency range). Excessive interference can be reported to your appropriate Telecommunications Office, which has radio interference measuring equipment (radio location).

Do not use transmitters near locations or installations that are sensitive to radio interference (e.g.: airports, hospitals).

1.4 Target groups and qualifications

The operator must make sure that the control unit is operated without modifications and that a qualified technician carries out regular checks to ensure that the safety device is fully functional.

The user may operate the control unit using pushbuttons or a transmitter as instructed by the operator.

Only qualified electricians may work on the control unit (such as installation, connection, initial operation, testing, maintenance or disassembly).

2	4

Recommended screw diameter: 6 mm. The 4 screws and plugs required for wall mounting are not included in delivery.

Install the housing upright on an even surface, with the cable conduits facing downwards.

Ensure the housing is not distorted when mounting, so that the cover seals properly when closed.

Use the fixture points provided for screwing on the housing. Do not drill through the rear wall of the housing.

Dry any moisture that enters into the housing with a fan.

3.2 Connecting the control unit

The control unit may only be connected to the power supply by a qualified electrician (according to the definition given in BGV A3, § 2 Subsection 3; applies only in Germany).

Always connect the control unit off-circuit.

Only connect the control unit to the mains over an all-pole isolation device. Always ensure compliance with the current VDE and EN standards (EN 12453:2000) and the technical criteria for connection as required by the regional electricity supply companies.

Before connection, check that the mains voltage range of the control unit is compatible with the local mains voltage.

Install the control unit and external command devices in the door area so that the door can be watched during operation. However, they must not be installed within the door’s range of movement.

Static electricity can damage the electronic components on the board. Before touching the board, touch a metallic, grounded object to discharge yourself.

The control unit can be operated in automatic mode or in conjunction with safety devices (minimum requirement: “safety contact strip”). If there are no safety devices, the control unit must only be operated in dead man mode!

Only cut as much off the cap on the cable conduit so that it will still be sealed after the cable is inserted.

Always use a strain relief when connecting the cable (included in delivery).

Risk of electric shock

Before working on the control unit, switch off the mains, check that it is not live and ensure that it cannot be inadvertently switched back on.

Permissible rated cross-section for connecting cord

• at terminals 1 to 12: 1.5 mm² – 4.0 mm²

Safety contact strips are available in two models:

•Optical safety contact strip from FRABA (1) or

•Electrical 8 kOhm safety contact strip (2)

The safety contact strip is attached to the closing edge of the door. It protects persons against the risk of entrapment from the closing edges and prevents damage to objects. As soon as it is activated when the door is closing (by an obstacle or person), the control unit stops the operator and changes the direction of travel. The setting of DIP switches 3 and 4 determines how the control unit responds or how far the door travels in the opposite direction when an obstacle is encountered; see Chapter 6.15 “Operator response to detected obstacle”.

If the safety contact strip is activated, faulty or not connected, dead man operation is automatically activated; see Chapter 4.1 “Activating dead man operation”.
