PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE
This product is intended to be used to automate sliding gates used in residential
premises. CAUTION!–Allusesotherthantheintendedusedescribed
anduseinenvironmentalconditionsotherthanthosedescribedinthis
manualshouldbeconsideredimproperandforbidden!
RUN is a line of one-way electromechanical gearmotors with electronic control-
ler and SM type connector for the wireless receiver (optional). Electrical con-
nectionswithexternaldevicesaresimpliedthankstouseofthe“BlueBus”,a
technique permitting connection of multiple devices with only 2 wires. The list
of devices compatible with RUN over the BlueBus network is given in Chap-
ter7.3.1“BlueBus”;anup-to-datelist,withcompatibilityspecications,isalso
available on www.niceforyou.com.
RUN has a remote programmer connector to facilitate installation, maintenance
and troubleshooting; see Chapter 7.8.1 “Remote programmer”.
Ifmainspowered,Runcanbettedwithabackupbatterytoprovidepower
during power failures so that it can be operated for several hours (see par.
7.8.2). In the event of power failure, it is still possible to operate the gate by
releasing the gearmotor with its release handle (see par. 3.6).
The automation mechanism permits installation of various accessories to add
functions and improve security.
TheRUNproductlineincludesthefollowingproducts(table1-seeg.1).

INSTALLATION
3.1 - Tests prior to installation
Caution!-TheinstallationofRUNmustbecarriedoutbyqualifiedper-
sonnelincompliancewithcurrentlegislation,standardsandregula-
tions,andthedirectionsprovidedinthismanual.
Before proceeding with the installation of RUN you must:
• Checkthatallthematerialsareinexcellentcondition,suitableforuseand
that they conform to the standards currently in force.
• Makesurethatthestructureofthegateissuitableforautomation.
• Makesurethattheweightanddimensionsofthegatefallwithinthespecified
operating limits provided in chapter 3.2 “Operating limits”.
• Checkthattheforcerequiredtostartthemovementofthegateislessthan
half the “maximum torque”, and that the force required to keep the gate in
movement is less than half the “nominal torque”. Compare the resulting val-
ues with those specified in the “Technical Characteristics”. The manufacturer
recommends a 50% margin on the force, as unfavourable climatic conditions
may cause an increase in the friction.
• Makesurethattherearenopointsofgreaterfrictionintheopeningorclosing
phases of the gates.
• Checkthatthereisnoriskofderailmentorthatthegatesmaycomeofftheir
guides.
• Makesurethatthemechanicalstopsaresturdyenoughandthatthereisno
risk of deformation even if the gate hits the mechanical stop violently.
• Makesurethatthegatesectionisbalanced,i.e.itmustnotmoveifleftstillin
any position.
• Makesurethattheareawherethegearmotorisfixedisnotsubjecttoflood-
ing; iff necessary, mount the gearmotor raised from the ground.
• Makesurethattheinstallationareaenablesthereleaseofthegearmotorand
that it is safe and easy to release it manually.
• Makesurethatthemountingpositionsofthevariousdevicesareprotected
from impacts and that the mounting surfaces are sufficiently sturdy.
• Componentsmustneverbeimmersedinwaterorotherliquids.
• KeepRUNawayfromheatsourcesandopenflames;inacid,salineorpoten-
tially explosive atmosphere; this could damage RUN and cause malfunctions
or dangerous situations.
• Ifthereisanaccessdoorinthegate,orwithintherangeofmovementofthe
gate, make sure that it does not obstruct normal travel and, if necessary,
provide an appropriate interlock system.
• Connectthecontrolunittoanelectricitysupplywithasafetyearthsystem.
• Connectthegatetotheprotectiveearthinaccordancewithcurrentlegisla-
tion.
• Provideadeviceontheelectricitysupplylinethatensurescompletedis-
connection of the automation mechanism from the grid. The disconnection
device must have contacts with an opening distance large enough to per-
mit complete disconnection under the conditions sanctioned by overvoltage
category III, in accordance with installation regulations. The device ensures
quick, safe disconnection from the power supply if needed, and must there-
fore be positioned in view of the automation mechanism. If, on the other
hand, it is located in a position which is not visible, there must be a system
forpreventingaccidentalorunauthorizedreconnectionwiththepowergridto
prevent this risk. The disconnection device is not supplied with the product.
3.2 - Operating limits
The “Technical Characteristics” chapter provides all the data needed to deter-
mine whether the products of the RUN line are suitable for the intended appli-
cation.
The structural characteristics of RUN make it suitable for use on sliding gates in
conformity with the limits indicated in tables 2 and 3.
The effective suitability of RUN to automate a particular sliding gate depends on
the friction as well as other correlated factors, such as ice, that could interfere
with the movement of the gate.
For an effective control it is absolutely vital to measure the force necessary
to move the gate throughout its entire run and ensure that this is less than
half of the “nominal torque” indicated in chapter 8 “Technical characteristics” (a
50% margin on the force is recommended, as unfavourable climatic conditions
may cause an increase in the friction); furthermore, it is necessary to take into
consideration the data indicated in tables 1 and 2 to establish the number of
cycles/hour, consecutive cycles and maximum speed allowed.
