PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE MC824L is an electronic control unit for automating swing gates. MC824L is able to command electromechanical actuators of the PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE type indicated in “Table 4”. It incorporates a system that verifies the force of the motors connected to it (amperometric function).
3.4 TYPICAL INSTALLATION INSTALLATION “Figure 3” shows an example of an automation system constructed using Nice components. INSTALLATION 3.1 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS Before proceeding with the product’s installation, it is necessary – check the integrity of the supply – check that all the materials are in good working order and suited to the intended use –...

4.3 CONNECTING OTHER DEVICES TO THE PHOTOCELL ADDRESSES CONTROL UNIT Position of the Photocell jumpers If the user needs to power external devices, such as a proximity FOTO 2 (PHOTO 2) reader for transponder cards or the light of the key selector Internal photocell triggered during the switch, power can be tapped as shown in the figure.
4.8 LEARNING OF THE MECHANICAL STOP POSITIONS Once the connected devices have been learned, the mechanical stop positions must be learned (maximum opening and maximum closing). This procedure can be carried out in three Bluebus Stop Open Close different ways: automatic, manual and mixed.

5.1 TESTING For all the above-mentioned documentation, Nice – The sequence of steps to be performed when running the through its technical assistance service – provides testing phase, as described below, refers to a typical system the following: pre-completed forms.
6.1 USING THE PROGRAMMING BUTTONS PROGRAMMING Button for commanding the gate opening Selection button during the programming phase. There are 3 buttons on the control unit: PROGRAMMING (“Figure 19”) which can be used both to command the control unit during the testing phase and to programme the Button used to stop a manoeuvre available functions.
LEVEL 1 FUNCTIONS (ON-OFF) Function Description Function ENABLED: 1 minute after the manoeuvre is completed, the control unit will turn off the “Bluebus” output (connected devices) and all the LEDs, with the exception of the Bluebus LED, which will flash at a slower speed.

TROUBLESHOOTING... (troubleshooting guide) Some devices are configured for signalling the operating status or the presence of any anomalies. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE 7.1 SIGNALLING THROUGH WARNING LIGHT If a warning light is connected to the FLASH output (A) on the control unit, the light will flash once every 1 second while the manoeuvre is being performed.
7.2 SIGNALS ON THE CONTROL UNIT The control unit has LEDs “L1-L8” on the buttons and LEDs “L9- L13” on the control unit terminals (“Figure 22”). Each of these LEDs can emit special signals both during normal Bluebus Stop Open Close operation and in case on anomalies.
