    2) oduct description and applications ROBUS is a line of irreversible electromechanical gearmotors for the ates with electric power. In the event of a power failure, the gearmo- automation of sliding gates. It is equipped with an electronic control tor can be released using a special key in order to move the gate unit and connector for the optional SMXI or SMXIS radiocontrol manually.

    4.4) Recognizing the length of the leaf After recognizing the devices, L3 and L4 LED’s start flashing; the control unit must recognize the length of the gate. During this stage, the length of the leaf is measured from the closing limit switch to the opening limit switch. This measurement is required to calculate the decel- eration points and the partial opening point.

    7.2.2) Level one programming (ON-OFF functions). Level 1 functions are all factory set to “OFF”. However, they can be changed at any time as shown in Table 8. Follow the procedure careful- ly, as there is a maximum time of 10 seconds between pressing one key and another. If a longer period of time lapses, the procedure will fin- ish automatically and memorize the modifications made up to that stage.

    7.3.5) ROBUS in “Slave” mode Properly programming and connecting, ROBUS can function in “Slave” mode; this type of function is used when 2 opposite gates need to be automated with the synchronised movement of the two leaves. In this mode ROBUS works as Master commanding the movement, while the second ROBUS acts as Slave, following the commands transmitted by the Master (all ROBUS are Masters when leaving the factory).
