Note 1 – A power supply cable longer than 30 m may be used provided it has a larger gauge, e.g. 3x2.5mm

, and that a safety earthing system is provided near the automation unit.
Note 2 – If the “BlueBus” cable is longer than 30 m, up to 50 m, a larger gauge (2x1mm
2
) cable is needed.
Note 3 – These two cables may be replaced by a single 4 x 0.5 mm
2
cable.
Note 4 – These cables may be replaced by a single 5 x 1.5 mm
2
cable.
Note 5 – special devices which enable connection even when the gate is moving must be used to connect movable edges to sliding gates, the gure shows FT210B.

3.4 - Installation of gearmotor
WARNINGS
• Incorrectinstallationmaycauseseriousphysicalinjurytothose
working on or using the system.
• Beforestartingautomationassembly,makethepreliminarychecks
asdescribedinparagraphs3.1and3.2.
If the surface it is to rest on already exists, the gearmotor must be mounted
directly onto that surface using appropriate means, e.g. expansion bolts. Oth-
erwise, in order to mount the gearmotor:
01. Dig the foundations as indicated in g.3.
02. Prepare one or two ducts for routing the cables as indicated in g.4.
03. Assemble the four anchoring devices onto the foundation plate, placing
one nut under and one over the plate; the nut below the plate must be
tightened as in g.5 so that the threaded part emerges no more than 40
mm above the plate.
04. Pour the concrete and before it starts to set, place the foundation plate
atthelevelsindicateding.3;makesurethatitisparalleltothegateand
perfectly level as shown in g.6. Wait for the concrete to set fully.
05. Remove the 4 nuts above the plate and position the gearmotor; make sure
it is parallel to the gate and hand tighten down the 4 nuts with their wash-
ers (g.7).
06. Release the gearmotor as indicated in par. 3.6 - Manually releasing and
locking the gearmotor.
07. Fullyopenthegate,thenresttherstpartoftherackagainstthepinion
and make sure that the start of the rack corresponds to the start of the
gate as in g.8. Make sure that there is some play of about 1-2 mm
betweenthepinionandtherack,andthenxtheracktothegateusing
appropriate means.
08. Slidethegateandalwaysusethepinionasareferencetoxtheotherele-
ments of the rack.
09. Cut off the excess section of rack.
10. Try to open and close the gate a number of times and check that the rack
moves in line on the pinion with a maximum misalignment of 5 mm and that
the play of 1-2 mm between the pinion and the rack is observed through-
out the length (g.9).
11. Tightendownthexingnutsofthegearmotor,makingsurethatitisrmly

12. Fix the stop brackets as described below (proximity sensor units must be
mounted as described in par. 3.5 - Installing brackets with inductive prox-
imity switches):
a) Move the gate by hand to the open position, stopping at least 2-3cm
before the mechanical stop.
b) Slide the bracket on the rack in the opening direction until the stop
switch trips. Now move the bracket at least 2cm and secure it to the rack
with its grub screws (g.11).
c) Do the same for the closing stop bracket.
13. Lock the gearmotor as indicated in par. Manually releasing and locking the
gearmotor in the chapter on “User instructions and warnings”.
3.5-Installingbracketswithinductiveproximityswitches
For units with inductive proximity switches, install the brackets as described
below.
01. Move the gate by hand to the open position, stopping at least 2-3cm
before the mechanical stop.
02. Slide the bracket further along the rack until the led turns off, see g.12.
Now move the bracket at least 2cm further and secure it to the rack with its
grub screws.
03. Move the gate to the closed position by hand and stop at least 2-3cm
before the mechanical stop.
04. Slide the bracket further along the rack until the led turns off. Now move
the bracket at least 2cm further and secure it to the rack with its grub
screws.

3.6- Manuallyreleasingandlockingthegearmotor
The gearmotor is equipped with a mechanical blocking system to enable man-
ual opening and closing of the gate.
These manual operations should only be performed in the event of a power
failure, malfunctions or during the installation procedures.
01. Slide the lock cover disk (step 1 - g.14);
02. Fit and turn the key CW, then pull the release handle (step 2 - g.14);
03. You can now move the gate by hand to the desired position (steps 3 and
4 - g.14).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

nectedfromthegridanddisconnectedfromthebackupbattery(ifany).
01. Insert all the connecting cables to the various devices, leaving them 20
to 30 cm longer than necessary. Refer to Table 5 for the cable type and
Figure 17 for connections.
02. Use a clamp to hold together all the cables that enter the gearmotor, and
place the clamp underneath the hole through which the cables enter.
03. Connect up the power cable to the terminal provided, as shown in Figure
15,thenuseaclamptolockthecableontotherstcablering.
04. Connect up the other cables according to the diagram in Figure 16. For
greater convenience, the terminal clamps are removable.
05. After making the connections, lock the cables you have collected together

4.1 - Description of the electrical connections
• FLASH = output for one or two “LUCYB” or similar type flashers with single
12V maximum 21W bulb.
• S.C.A. = “Open Gate Light” output; a 24V (max. 4W) signal light can be con-
nected. It can also be programmed for other functions; see paragraph “7.5
Level two functions”.
• BLUEBUS = compatible devices can be connected up to this terminal. They
are connected in parallel using two conductors only, through which both the
electricity supply and the communication signals travel. For more useful infor-
mation about BlueBus see also paragraph “8.1.1 BlueBus”.
• STOP = input for the devices which block or that may stop a manoeuvre
in progress. Contacts like “Normally Closed”, “Normally Open” or constant
resistance devices can be connected up using special procedures on the
input. For more useful information about STOP see also Paragraph “8.1.2
STOP input”.
• STEP-BY-STEP = input for devices which control Step-by-Step movement.
It is possible to connect contacts of the “Normally Open” type to this input.
• OPEN = input for devices which control only the opening movement. It is
possible to connect contacts of the “Normally Open” type to this input.
