ENGLISH49 PHOTOCELLS - INSTRUCTIONS• The control unit powers the photocells at a nominal voltage of24 Vdc, with an electronic fuse that breaks the current in thecase of an overload.• If the transmitter power supply is connected to terminalsK8 and K9, the control unit can perform the photocelloperation test prior to starting gate opening.• The photocells on the interior side should be installed so as tocompletely cover the gate opening area.• If several pairs of photocells are installed on the same side ofthe gate, the receiver N.C. outputs should be connected inseries.• The photocells are not powered when the control unit is inENERGY SAVING mode.4.4 - EXTERNAL PHOTOCELL CONNECTIONPhotocells installed on the exterior side of the gate should beconnected as follows:• Connect the transmitter power supply to terminalsK8 (+Test) and K9 (-)• Connect the receiver power supply to terminalsK10 (+24 VDC) and K9 (-)• Connect the receiver N.C. output to terminalsJ5 (PHOTO) and J4 (COM)Photocells thus connected are active during closure.In the case of tripping the photocell, the control unit immediatelyre-opens the gate (without waiting for disengagement).4.5 - INTERNAL PHOTOCELL CONNECTIONPhotocells installed on the interior side of the gate should beconnected as follows:• Connect the transmitter power supply to terminalsK8 (+Test) and K9 (-)• Connect the receiver power supply to terminalsK10 (+24 VDC) and K9 (-)• Connect the receiver N.C. output to terminalsJ6 (PHOTO) and J4 (COM)Photocells thus connected are active both during opening andduring closing. In the case of the photocell tripping, the controlunit immediately stops the gate.When the photocell is disengaged, the gate re-opens fully. SAFETY RIBBONS - INSTRUCTIONS• If several edges, with normally closed contacts, are used, theoutputs should be connected in series.• If several conductive rubber edges are used, the outputs shouldbe connected in cascade, and only the final edge should beterminated on the nominal resistance.• Active edges connected to the accessory power supply areinactive when the control unit switches to ENERGY SAVINGmode.• To meet the requirements of EN12978, it is necessary to installconductive rubber sensitive edges; contact normally closedsensitive edges should have a control unit that constantlyverifies their correct operation. If control units with the optionto conduct testing by interrupting the power are used, connectthe control unit power cables between terminals K9 (-) andK8 (+Test) on the PD12.Otherwise, connect them between terminalsK10 (+) and K9 (-).Testing the edges should be activated by means of theCo.tE menu.4.6 - CONNECTING SAFETY RIBBONSThe control unit considers two kinds of safety ribbons,depending on the terminal to which they are connected:• Type 1 (fixed): they are mounted on walls or on other fixedobstacles that are approached by the gate doors during theopening phase. When type 1 safety ribbons operate during thegate opening phase, the control unit will close the doorsfor 3 seconds, then it stands still; when type 1 safety ribbonsoperate during the gate closing phase, the control unit willstand still immediately. The direction of the gate at nextcommand of START or PEDESTRIAN START depends upon theparameter STOP (it inverts or continues the motion).If the input STOP is disabled, the command makes the motioncontinue in the same direction.• Type 2 (mobile): they are mounted to the door ends.When type 2 safety ribbons operate during the gate openingphase, the control unit will stand still immediately; whentype 2 safety ribbons operate during the gate closing, thecontrol unit will open the doors for 3 seconds, then it willstand still. The direction of the gate at next command ofSTART or PEDESTRIAN START depends upon the parameterSTOP (it inverts or continues the motion). If the input STOPis disabled, the command makes the motion continue in thesame direction.Both the input can manage the classic safety edge with n.c.contact and the conductive rubber safety edge with 8,2 kohmnominal resistance.Connect type 1 safety ribbons cables between terminalsJ7 (EDGE1) and J9 (COM) of the control unit.Connect type 2 safety ribbons cables between terminalsJ8 (EDGE2) and J9 (COM) of the control unit.
