Operating Instructions

Before carrying out any work to the

operator, always pull out the mains plug!

All persons using the door system must be

shown how to operate it properly and

safely:

When the operator is being used, the

opening and closing cycles must be

monitored.

Keep hand transmitters out of the reach of

children.

It must be ensured that neither persons

nor objects are located within the door's

range of travel.

Functional sequence

The garage door operator can be actuated via

impulse generators such as hand

transmitters, key switches etc. It is only

necessary to give a short, sharp impulse.

Initial impulse:

The operator starts up and causes the door to

travel to the set OPEN or CLOSE end-of-

travel positions.

Impulse generated whilst the door is moving:

the door stops

A new impulse:

the door continues to move but in the opposite

direction.

Internal safety device

If the closing door encounters an obstruction,

the operator stops and causes the door to

open to its top end-of-travel position in order to

clear the obstruction.

During the last 2 seconds of the closing cycle,

the door only opens slightly, this being

sufficient to clear the obstruction but

otherwise barring anyone from taking a look

into the garage.

If the opening door encountes an obstruction,

the operator stops immediately. The door can

be closed again by generating a new impulse.

External safety devices

Connecting plan figure 13

Wicket door contact (STOP A)

An open wicket door stops the operator

immediately or stops it from starting up.

Photocell (STOP B)

If the photocell is interrupted whilst the door is

closing, the door stops and reverses direction.

An interruption whilst the door is opening has

not effect.

Quick release

During adjustments, in the event of a power

failure or malfunctions the door can be

disengaged from the operator by actuating the

pull cord on the carriage and then operated

manually.

If the door is to be operated manually over a

longer period of time, then the existing locking

pin must be inserted (see figure 12). The door

latches, put out of service for power operation,

must be refitted, otherwise the door is not

latched in the closed position.

To restore power operation, return the locking

pin to the parking position (a) and put the

latches put out of service.

After an impulse has been generated, the door

automatically latches with the door operator.

Lighting

The lighting switches on automatically

whenever a start impulse is generated and

switches off again after the set time phase

(factory setting approx. 90 seconds).

A second button on the hand transmitter can

be programmed for 4-minutes light (figure 16).

When the button on the hand transmitter is

pressed, the light switches on independent of

the motor and switches off again after approx.

4 minutes.

Changing the light bulb:

Pull out the mains plug and open the lamp

cover using a Phillips screwdriver size 2 x 100.

Replace the light bulb (230 V, 40 W, base E27)

and screw the lamp cover back on.

Signal light

If a signal light for signalling the opening and

closing phases is installed, this flashes

together with the lamp in the operator as soon

as a start impulse is generated. The operator

starts with a time-delay in accordance with the

set warning phase (see menu stage 7).

Hand transmitter

Programming further hand transmitters:

See menu stages 1 and 2 (figure 15 and 16).

Changing the battery: Slide back the battery

compartment cover on the hand transmitter.

Take out the battery.

Insert a new battery (alkaline 23A, 12V) and

be sure polarity correctly!

Slide the cover back on.

Empty batteries must be disposed of

separately (toxic waste)!

Maintenance / Checks

For your own safety we recommend

that the door system be checked by a

specialist after initial installation and

then regularly at intervals of 1 year

minimum.

Monitoring the force limit

The operator control unit features a 2-

processor safety system to monitor the force

limit. The integral force cut-out is

automatically tested at each end-of-travel

position.

The door system must be checked before

being put into service and at least once a year

thereafter, during the course of which, a check

of the force limit facility (figure 21) must also

be carried out!

Caution! If the closing force is set too

high, persons can be placed at risk of

injury.

The opening force can be re-adjusted in menu

stage 5, the closing force in menu stage 6.
