Nice KS100 - Key-Operated Selector Manual

Warnings

• The installation, testing and set-up of automation devices for doors and gates must be performed by qualified and experienced personnel who must also determine the type of tests required based on the risks involved, and ensure that laws, standards and regulations in force are complied with.
• Nice disclaims responsibility for any damage resulting from improper use of the product; the only use authorized by the manufacturer is the one described in this manual.
• The packaging materials must be disposed of in compliance with the regulations locally in force.
• The KS100 key-operated selector switch must not be immersed in water or any other liquid substances. If liquid substances should penetrate inside the device, disconnect the power supply immediately and call Nice customer service; using the component under these conditions could be hazardous.
• 
  Do not place the selector switch near heat sources or expose it to open flames; this could damage the device and cause malfunctions, fire hazards or other dangers.

Description and Intended Use

The KS100 key-operated two-position selector switch enables gate control without using the radio transmitter. It is equipped with internal light for use in the dark.
There are two commands, which depend on the direction in which the key is turned: "OPEN" and "STOP"; then the key, which is spring loaded, returns to the centre position. The KS100 key-operated two-position selector switch may only be used in combination with Mhouse control units.

Installation

disconnect the power supply to the system before performing any installation operations; if the system is equipped with a PR1 buffer battery, the latter must be disconnected.
Notice: Take care not to damage the o-ring featured (fig. 4) [A].

Observe the following directions when choosing the position of the selector switch:

• Make sure that the mounting surface is sufficiently compact, enabling the device to be mounted using the screws and anchors provided; if necessary, you can use other suitable fastening systems.
• A conduit for the wires must be provided at the intended installation point.

1. Remove the glass front (Fig.1).
   
2. To separate the bottom from the shell, turn the key and pull with a finger inserted in the hole at the back for the passage of the wires (Fig.2).
   
3. Mark the drilling points using the bottom as reference. Drill the holes in the wall using a hammer drill fitted with a 5 mm bit and insert the 5 mm screw anchors provided.
4. Thread the electrical cables through the holes provided (break those required).
   
5. Secure the bottom using the corresponding screws, and make sure that the hole in the bottom matches the outlet for the wires. Two self-tapping screws are also provided for securing on a different density surface.
   
6. Connect the electrical cables to the appropriate OPEN and STOP terminals as shown below. It is not necessary to observe any polarity. To facilitate the above operations you can remove the terminals, make the connections and then reinsert the terminals.
   
7. To insert shell [B] on the bottom you need to turn the key. After you have inserted it, turn the key back to the centre position. Secure shell [B] using the two screws [C]. Finally insert the frame [D], pressing it gently to close it.
   
8. The KS100 selector switch is designed to be connected directly to the corresponding OPEN and STOP terminals in the control unit; also in this case it is not necessary to observe any polarity.
   

Device Recognition

If the KS100 selector switch is used to replace a pre-existing one, or has been connected "in parallel" to an existing one, no recognition procedure needs to be carried out. For further information, please refer to the chapter titled "Addition or Removal of Devices" in the control unit's instructions manual. However, if you add or remove devices connected to the STOP input, the recognition procedure has to be carried out. In this case proceed as follows:

1. Power the control unit and check whether the "STOP" LED [E] shown in Fig.8 is on; in this case the recognition procedure is not necessary.
2. On the control unit, press the P2 button [F] shown in Fig.8 for at least three seconds, then release the button.
3. Wait a few seconds until the control unit has completed the device recognition procedure.
4. When the recognition procedure has been completed, the P2 LED [G] Fig.8 will go off. If the LED flashes it means that something is wrong.
   

Checking the operation of the device

With the control unit powered, make sure that the night light is on. Check that the OPEN command is given when the key is turned clockwise, and that the STOP command is given when the key is turned counter-clockwise. The OPEN input may have different functions depending on how it is programmed in the control unit; see the "Advanced Adjustments" chapter in the control unit's instructions manual.

Testing

after adding or replacing any devices connected to the "STOP" input, in the event that any safety devices are also connected to this input, you need to test the entire automation system again following the instructions found in the relevant installation manuals under the "Testing and set-up" chapter.
