1) GENERAL OUTLINE

Elba is a control unit for motors having maximum power of 470 W (e.g. tubular
motors for roller shutters and sunshades, roll-up door openers etc.), compatible
with the EElink protocol.
It is provided with the connections for opening (or start), closing and stop con-
trol buttons, for accessories such as the twilight sensor, anemometer and, when
requested, safety devices.
When the key is pressed, a START command is generated.
The commands can also be sent via radio through; the transmitters can directly be
memorised by means of the key and the LED present on the board or by means
of the radio self-learning method or using the cloning mechanism.
If the control unit allows it, set up a centralised control system via wire, which
can be divided into 8 or more zones, without having to interfere with the wiring.

4) WIRING
WARNING! For connection to the mains, use a multipolar cable having a
minimum cross section of 3x1.5 mm
dards. (For example, if the cable is not protected, it must be at least equal
to H07 RN-F, whereas if it is protected it must be at least equal to H07 VV-F
with a 3x1.5 sq mm cross section).

Serial line connections to produce a hardwired centralized control system must
be made using only twisted pair cabling of the kind used for telephone systems.
When using a telephone cable with more than one pair, it is essential to use wires
from the same pair.
The length of the telephone cable between one unit and the next must not
be greater than 250 m.
Control buttons must have markings to show the actual direction of movement.
In the event you are connecting devices to the STOP and PHOTOCELL terminals,
you will need to remove the factory-connected jumpers. If several devices
are to be connected to one of these inputs, they must be connected in series
with each other.
TERMINAL DESCRIPTION

Single-phase mains power (1=N, 2=L)
Motor connection:
3 start 1 + capacitor

6-7 OPEN/START INPUT (N.O.)
6-8 CLOSE INPUT (N.O.)
STOP/WIND SENSOR INPUT
A STOP control can be connected to this input, or a wind sensor
6-9 can be connected to provide automatic closing when wind speed
reaches a settable threshold. The setting is made by adjusting
DIP switches n° 1 and 2.
PHOT INPUT (N.C.)
6-10
The safety device operates locally only.
TWILIGHT SWITCH INPUT (N.O.)
A twilight switch can be connected to this input to provide automatic
6-11
opening and closing as environmental light conditions change.
When the contact closes, a close command is sent to the actuator; when
the contact opens again, the actuator is made to open.
24V~ max. 70mA output - power supply to photocells or

5.1) ADJUSTING OPERATING TIME AND AUTOMATIC CLOSING TIME
TW trimmer (fig. 1): operating time adjustable from a minimum of 10 sec. to a
maximum of 240 sec..
TCA trimmer (fig. 1): automatic closing time adjustable from a minimum of 3 sec.
to a maximum of 180 sec..
Automatic closing can also be disabled by setting the trimmer to its lowest setting.
The TCA countdown starts when the operating time ends.

5.2) ADJUSTING OPERATING LOGIC

The board features 12 DIP switches for adjusting operating logic:
STOP/WIND input setting
DIP 1
OFF

OFF
ON
OPEN/START input setting [OFF]
DIP 3:
ON: Input between terminals 6-7 works as START
OFF: Input between terminals 6-7 works as OPEN
Open/closed loop logic [OFF]
DIP 4: ON: closed loop
OFF: open loop
Master/slave logic [OFF]
ON: Control panel is set up as the Master unit in a centralized
DIP 5: connection system.
OFF: Control panel is set up as a SLAVE unit in a centralized con-
nection system.
Zone programming [OFF]
DIP 6: ON: Control panel is in Zone setting mode
OFF: Control panel is in normal operating mode
Deadman [OFF]
ON: Deadman mode: operation continues as long as the control
key is held down. (OPEN-CLOSE). Input between terminals 6-7
works as OPEN (regardless of position of DIP 3). Input between
DIP 7:
terminals 6-9 works as STOP (regardless of position of DIP 1
and 2). NEITHER A WIND SENSOR NOR TWILIGHT SWITCH
CAN BE CONNECTED.
OFF:Pulse operation, according to 2- or 4-step logic.
Photocell off during opening [OFF]
ON: when beam is broken, operation of the photocell is switched
off during opening. During closing, movement is reversed
DIP 8: immediately.
OFF:when beam is broken, photocells are active during both opening
and closing. When beam is broken during closing, movement
is reversed only once the photocell is cleared.
2-step logic on [OFF]
ON: Switches to 2-step logic. A start pulse has the following
effects:
door closed:............................................................opens
during opening:...........................stops and closes again
door open:..............................................................closes
during closing:.............................stops and opens again
DIP 9: OFF: Switches to 4-step logic. A start pulse has the following
effects:
door closed:............................................................opens
during opening:.........stops and switches on TCA (if configured)
door open:..............................................................closes
during closing:.............................................stops and does not
switch on tca (stop)
after stop:...............................................................opens
Transmitter management [OFF]
ON: Control panel is in transmitter management mode (memorizing/
DIP 10:
