MOUNTING
4
Switch off power supply before installing the strobe light.
1. Turn the housing (orange) anti-clockwise.
2. Attach the signal lamp holder accordingly, insert the electro-
nics of the signal light on it and secure it with the supplied
screws (fig.4).
3. Route the cable. The cable must be laid in accordance with
local building and electrical installation regulations.
High voltage and low voltage lines should not be laid
together in a cable, which leads to malfunction. Connect the
cable (min. 2 x 0.5 mm²) to the terminals according to the
control.

- Garage door openers:
Select the drive model from the pictures (2+3).
The connection is made according to the wiring diagram.
- Swing and sliding door drives:
Select the drive model from the pictures (6-12).
The connection is made according to the wiring diagram.
5. Close the housing (orange) again.
6. After connecting the strobe light, switch power back on.
FUNCTION
5
- Garage door openers:
After operating the remote control/button the FLA1-LED starts
to flash. The drive opens or closes with a short delay. If the
drive stops, the indicator light flashes briefly after. Except
Model 5580: Here the flashing starts and ends with the start
and stop operation of the drive.
- Swing and sliding door drives:
After operating the remote control/button the flashing process
and the opening and closing operation of the door run simulta-
neously.
If the FLA1-LED does not flash although the connection
was made correctly, the system must be checked immedi-
ately by an authorised technician.
Live and moving parts of electrical equipment can
cause serious and fatal injuries.
Installation, connection, commissioning and repair work
should be undertaken only by qualified technicians.
The product is in compliance with the essential requirements
