3. Installation and setting Drive control unit is pre-set by parameter “r” for motor with which is deliveried or for the weakest motor (SI 17.15), control unit permanently verifies correct setting of frequency inverter parameters. It is necessary to set parameter for motor selection Parameter “r”. To ensure proper operation we have to install appropriate type of control box designed for particular motor group or control box designed for a higher group of motors.

case of present power supply 1x230V or if the backup power is correctly dimensioned. In parameter „O“ – it is possible to select maximum of 10 attempts to open, however it is dependent on status of battery charge and its size. Function of audio and visual signalization (Pre-flash) causes that during the set time in parameter „2“, before the standard operation of gate, signalization starts functioning (flash and sound = warning light).
5. Description of control and terminal blocks 5.1.

Control box FSTronic DES-FI can be equipped with hermetic PB batteries. To secure their safe operation the following conditions apply: Precondition for reaching full life of the hermetic PB batteries is their proper charging (life of common types of batteries is approx. 5 years during optimal operating temperature 15-20°C).
