    GENERAL WARNINGS: SAFETY - INSTALLATION - USE (instructions translated from Italian) The following warnings are taken directly from the Regulations and apply, as far as possible, to the product described herein WARNING Important safety instructions. Observe all the instructions as improper installation may cause serious damage WARNING Important safety instructions.
  • Page 5: Product Description And Intended Use

    PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE ROAD (RD400) is an electromechanical gearmotor for the automatic movement of residential sliding gates; it is equipped with an electronic control unit with incorporated receiver for radio remote control. ROAD operates with electrical power. In the event of a power failure, the gearmotor can be released with an appropriate button in order to move the door manually.
  • Page 6 Before installing the system, check the gearmotor’s overall dimensions (Fig. 3) and installation measurements (Fig. 4): 300 mm 195 mm 0 – 10 mm 0 – 10 mm 192 mm 192 mm 330 mm 0 – 50 mm 0 – 50 mm 330 mm Dig the foundations and arrange the tubes for the electri- cal cables...
  • Page 7 Wait for the concrete to harden. Secure the gearmotor: a - remove the top nuts of the anchor bolts b - place the gearmotor on the anchor bolts: make sure that it lies parallel to the gate leaf c - insert the washers and nuts provided and tighten them slightly d - adjust the gearmotor’s height by tightening the adjust- er grub screws: position the pinion at the right height by...
  • Page 8 h - manually open the gate leaf fully i - place the first section of the rack on the gearmotor’s pinion: make sure that it corresponds to the start of the gate leaf and that there is a gap of 1–2 mm between the rack and the pinion (this so as to prevent the gate leaf weight from bearing on the gearmotor) l - secure the rack section...
  • Page 9 n - cut any excess rack off the end Slide the gate open and closed by hand to check that the rack is properly aligned with the pinion. N.B.: make sure that there is a gap of 1–2 mm between the rack and pinion for the entire length of the gate 1÷2 mm Strongly tighten the nuts for fixing the gearmotor to the foundation plate and cover the nuts with the relevant caps...
  • Page 10 CLOSE: a - slide the gate leaf closed by hand, stopping it 2/3 cm before the mechanical stop b - slide the limit switch bracket along the rack in the close direction until the limit switch intervenes (a “click” will be heard) c - after hearing the “click”, move the bracket further forward by 2 cm (minimum) d - secure the bracket to the rack with the grub screws provided 2-3 cm...

    5.2 - Connecting the automation to the mains electricity WARNING! – The automation must be connected to the mains electricity by an expert and qualified electrician, in accordance with established laws, standards and local regulations. Proceed as described below Manually release the gearmotor so that the gate can be opened and closed Move the gate leaf to the halfway position of its path Manually lock the gearmotor Power the automation and verify:...
  • Page 14: Testing And Commissioning

    TESTING AND COMMISSIONING These are the most important phases in the automation’s arrangement to ensure maximum system safety. They must be carried out by a qualified and expert technician who must define the necessary tests to verify the solutions adopted to counter any risks present, and check compliance with the laws, regulations and standards: in particular, with all the requirements of the EN 13241-1, EN 12445 and EN 12453 standards.
  • Page 15: Programming

    The force adjustment is an important safety factor and must be done with the utmost care by qualified technicians. Important! - Adjust the force sufficiently to enable the gate to move as intended; higher force values to those necessary for moving the gate can cause injury to animals and persons or damage to property if the gate collides with an obstacle Before commissioning the automation, adequately inform the owner in writing regarding the attendant residual risks PROGRAMMING...
  • Page 16: Recognition Of The Gate Opening And Closing Positions

    7.3 - Recognition of the gate opening and closing positions It is necessary for the control unit to recognise the gate leaf opening and closing positions; during this phase the length of the gate leaf is measured between the closing and opening limit switches, as it is necessary to calculate the slowdown and partial opening points. Besides the positions, the STOP input configuration is detected and memorised in this phase in addition to the presence or absence of the connection in “Phototest”...
  • Page 17: Programming The Level 1 Functions (On-Off Functions)

    7.6.2 - Programming the Level 1 functions (ON-OFF functions) By default, Level 1 functions are all set to “OFF” but can be modified at any time as described in Table 6. Take care during modification proce- dures, as there is a maximum time interval of 10 seconds between pressing of different buttons; otherwise the procedure terminates automati- cally and stores the changes made up to that time.
  • Page 18: Transmitter Memorisation

    Wait 10 seconds to exit the programming mode after the maximum time interval 10 s Steps 03 and 07 can be repeated during the same programming phase to modify multiple parameters 7.7 - Transmitter memorisation Each transmitter to be used in the system must be memorised in the control unit’s radio receiver; the transmitters can be memorised in two modes: Mode 1 and Mode 2 (Paragraphs 7.7.1 and 7.7.3).

    On the NEW transmitter press and release the button slowly once Repeat the procedure for each transmitter to be memorised 7.9 - Deleting all memorised transmitters from the memory Warning! - This procedure can ONLY be performed if the radio memory has been unlocked. Table 14 - Transmitter deletion procedure Press and hold the radio button on the control unit up to Step 02...
  • Page 20: Adding Or Removing Devices

    FURTHER INFORMATION 8.1 - Adding or removing devices It is possible to add or remove devices at any time; in particular, various types of devices can be connected to the STOP input, as described in the following paragraphs; for the relevant procedure see Paragraph 7.3 (“Recognition of the gate opening and closing positions”). STOP input STOP is the input that causes the immediate interruption of the manoeuvre, followed by a brief inversion.
  • Page 21: Buffer Battery

    8.2 - Buffer battery ROAD comes with the optional buffer battery accessory model PS124 (1.2 Ah with integrated battery charger). To connect the buffer battery, proceed as shown below. WARNING! - The buffer battery should only be connected to the control unit after completing all the installation and programming phases, because the battery is an emergency power supply.
  • Page 22: Full Deletion Of The Memory

    8.4 - Full deletion of the memory When full deletion of the memory is required, to restore the default settings, perform the following procedure with the motor stationary: Table 16 - Procedure for fully deleting the memory Press and hold buttons s and t simultaneously for 3 seconds. When all the LEDs light up simultaneously, release the buttons.
