You may find this symbol attached to the product. It indicates a powered terminal where dangerous voltage may be present. You may find this symbol attached to the product.
Tower Electric shock can cause personal injuries or even death. Avoid direct contact with dangerous voltages at all times. The protective grounding connection, when offered, is essential for a safe operation and must be checked before connecting the equipment to the power grid. Know the following warnings and safety guidelines: Dangerous voltages Only qualified technical professionals can install or replace the equipment.
Tower General maintenance precautions WARNING Avoid electric shock! Opening or removing the doors of this equipment can expose it to dangerous voltages. WARNING To reduce the risk of electric shock, before maintenance, turn off the power of the equipment by moving the circuit breaker key to the position OFF.

Tower The distance between doors depends on their sizes. Doors must be adjusted so to have a small space between them of about 30mm. Such space is important to ensure that, even closed, the door will not injure the user. Conduits with 50 mm diameter 4"x4"...
Tower Fixation to the floor The image below indicates the points for fixing the product to the floor. The surface must be steady and leveled to ensure good performance for the passage- controlling sensor and to maintain the doors aligned. Fixing can be done through mechanical bolts, also known as parabolts, or through chemical anchorage.

Tower NOTE - We recommend using chemical anchorage; however, if you prefer parabolts, make sure the floor is adequate.
Tower 6.4 Fixation of doors dTower is packaged with the doors unassembled, that is, they accompany the equipment separately in order to avoid damage. To install/fixate the doors, follow the step-by-step below: 1º Place the screw (1) only in the upper part, in the fastener hole (2);...
Tower 6.4.1 Labels Alongside the equipment, there are identification labels for passage, which are blue and yellow circles: Blue: Identify passage for people with special needs (PNE), with a passage space of 920mm. Yellow: Identify passage for people with special needs, with a passage space of 520mm. Identification labels for pasagem NOTE –...
Tower Accessing dTower after assembly WARNING Avoid electric shock! Opening or removing the doors of this equipment can expose it to dangerous voltages. WARNING To reduce the risk of electric shock, before maintenance, turn off the power of the equipment by moving the circuit breaker key to the position OFF.
Leave all maintenance services to qualified technical professionals. Interconnection cables can be found in the and must pass through the dTower R ducts as seen below: Interconnection duct for signal cables and DC charge: 037.12.909 - Interconnection signal cable and DC charge dTower ...

OFF. Leave all maintenance services to qualified technical professionals. The connection must follow the figure below: Digicon recommends using the norm NBR 5410 as reference for electrical installations of equipment pieces. Power cables of power supply must be connected to the circuit breaker and the ground cable in yellow/green terminal.
Tower Connection of control signals WARNING To reduce the risk of electric shock, before maintenance, turn off the power of the equipment by moving the circuit breaker key to the position OFF. Leave all maintenance services to qualified technical professionals. Enabling dry contact with 2 relays: Dry contact Enab.

Tower Confirming passage by disk emulation: Confirmation of entry Confirmation of exit In this operation mode, any of the passage confirmation outputs – output Rl1 or Rl2 – can be used to activate an electromechanical counter in order to count the passage flow in both directions of the equipment.
OFF. Leave all maintenance services to qualified technical professionals. dTower R will always be the master module in the blockage. In this module the controller board is installed – it is responsible for controlling the operation of the blockage.

Tower a) Passage with or without invasion: Selection: DS1-P3 at ON allows invasion, at OFF it does not. This feature defines if, in standby, the blockage accepts or not the invasion, that is, if it allows or not the obstruction of its sensors.
Tower 7.4.2.3 Configurable functions (via DS2) a) Waiting time after passage: Selection: DS2-P1, DS2-P2. This feature allows selecting the waiting time before closing the door after a valid passage. Times can be 0.5 seconds, 1.25 seconds, 2 seconds or Smart Speed. In the Smart Speed option, the system measures the passage speed and calculates the time for a person to go over the blockage in safety.

Tower Cleaning 11.1 Maintenance and preservation of stainless steel: Do not use chemical products, bleaches, or household cleaning products. Routine cleaning: The best products to preserve stainless steel are water, soap, mild and neutral detergents and ammonia-based removers diluted in warm water and applied with a soft cloth or a nylon sponge.
Tower Intense dirt/Prominent stains: Apply warm or hot detergent or an ammonia-based remover (domestic removers) and water solution. If this is not enough to remove burnt food or charred deposits, use more aggressive products, such as caustic soda-based removers used in domestic cleaning. 11.2 Maintenance and preservation of polycarbonate (doors) Routine cleaning: Choose a dry day (preferably with low humidity) because it will be...
