    SITE EVALUATION The site should be evaluated before the installation begins. The following items should be checked. • Flood level. The motor should be above flood level to avoid any damage to the motor. • The rail must be level and should be above ground level, this will assist with keeping debris out of the path of the wheels.
  • Page 7: Gate Evaluation

    GATE EVALUATION It is extremely important to evaluate the gate that is to be automated before any automation is done. The following points must be checked. All of the points mentioned below are common causes of problems if not checked. Ensure that the end stops are secure.
  • Page 8: Start-Up Force

    START UP FORCE It is important to check the start-up force of the gate before the motor is installed. Place the gate in the fully closed position. Using a fishing scale, pull the gate open and check the kilogram force required to start the gate rolling.
  • Page 9: Removing The Lid

    REMOVING THE LID AND PLACING THE MOTOR IN MANUAL OVER-RIDE To remove the lid. Step 1 Step 2 Open the access door Pull the pin out, the pin will move about 5 mm The lid can now be removed To place the motor in manual over-ride Open the door as in step 1 above.
  • Page 10: Electrical Wiring

    ELECTRICAL WIRING (SOLO AND CONDO ) The following section explains how the wiring should be done for the CONDO and SOLO motors only. For the wiring of the CONDO AC / DC motor see “AC / DC wiring” section. • The transformer must be plugged into a normal plug socket in the house.
  • Page 11 AC/DC WIRING. (CONDO AC/DC ONLY) The following section explains the wiring for the CONDO AC/DC motor. This motor is designed to be used in townhouse type installations or where the traffic volume is above normal. Caution must be taken when wiring the motor as this uses 220v A/C .

  • Page 13: Anchoring The Motor

    ANCHORING THE MOTOR It is very important that the motor is mounted on a firm foundation that can not move or become loose over time. The foundation should be constructed from concrete. The size of the plinth should be about 300 by 300 mm square and about 200mm deep.
  • Page 14: Securing The Motor

    SECURING THE MOTOR TO THE FOUNDATION PLATE When anchoring the motor it is important to ensure that the following points are checked. • The electrical cable is in position. • The concrete is fully set. • The motor foundation mountings are secure and can not move or become loose. •...
  • Page 15: Mounting The Rack

    MOUNTING THE RACK The rack is a length of steel that has nylon teeth attached to it. The rack is attached to the gate by means of TEK screws. The rack meshes with the pinion gear on the motor which then drives the gate. It is very important that the rack is mounted securely and that the rack meshes with the pinion gear for the full length of the gate .
  • Page 16: Filling The Gearbox Oil

    FILLING THE GEARBOX OIL It is extremely important that the gearbox is filled with the oil supplied before the motor is operated. Fill the gearbox oil as shown bellow, the complete The gearbox oil level needs to be checked bottle needs to be emptied into the gearbox. periodically.
  • Page 17: Main P.c.board Layout

    MAIN P.C.BOARD LAY-OUT The main P.C.CBOARD is the main electronic control board, this is a very sensitive piece of equipment and must be handled with extreme care. The electronic components that are found on the board are sensitive to static electricity and should not be handled or tampered with unless by an authorized D.A.C.E. agent. It is safe to connect electrical wiring to the wiring connectors on the board, but this must be done according to the in- structions in this manual.
  • Page 18: L.c.d. Screen

    L.C.D. SCREEN The L.C.D. offers an easy to use screen that gives the owner / installer information regarding programming and fault analysis. Whenever the motor is programmed or a fault occurs, refer to the screen for diagnostic assistance. In certain cases the screen will give a message that reads “call gate technician’ this means that the motor needs to be checked by an installer.
  • Page 19: Setting The Motor Direction

    SETTING THE MOTOR DIRECTION The following diagrams show the correct wiring of the electric motor to the main P.C.Board. The motor wires are found protruding from the motor, there are two wires, one wire is blue the other wire is black. FOR A GATE CLOSING TO THE LEFT FOR A GATE CLOSING TO THE RIGHT BLUE WIRE...
  • Page 20: Programming The Motor

    PROGRAMMING THE MOTOR The motor must be programmed to the gate in order to operate correctly. Once the motor has been pro- grammed to the gate, the program is held in the memory on the microchip, there is no need to re-program the motor after the initial program.
  • Page 21: Setting The Over-Current

    SETTING THE OVER-CURRENT It is recommended that the current sensing is left as set in the factory. As increasing the current sensing may cause serious injury or damage in the case of the gate striking an object. Over-current is the amount of force that the motor delivers before stopping when an object is struck. The amount of force is controlled by the two potentiometers (pots) found on the main P.C.BOARD.
  • Page 22: Setting Auto-Close Time

    SETTING AUTO-CLOSE TIME (OPTIONAL) Auto-close is an option that allows the gate to close automatically after a chosen time delay, this delay can be from 10 to 70 seconds. Auto-close is selected by using the dipswitches on the main P.C.Board. Dip- switch numbers 2,3 and 4 are the auto-close time select switches.
  • Page 23: Connecting Infra-Red Safety Beams
