Intersection Newmarket Road & Epsom Avenue North Riding Gauteng South Africa Declares that the product: Product name: D10/D10 Turbo Sliding gate operator Conforms with the following specifications: Safety: SANS 60335-1:2007 IEC 60335-1:2006 Emissions: CISPR 11 CLASS A - Radiated and conducted Interference field strength (emission tests) –...
The standard D10 uses a 34 tooth internal gear and a 17 tooth output pinion, whereas the D10 Turbo uses a 22 tooth internal gear and a 20 tooth output pinion.
In order to ensure that the surge protection is effective, it is essential that the unit is properly earthed. Theft Protection While care has been taken in the design of the D10/D10 Turbo to prevent unauthorized removal (theft) of the unit, an optional steel theft-resistant cage is also available for added peace of mind.

2. Since the D10 Turbo operates at exceptionally high speeds, it is mandatory to install the following additional safety equipment in order to ensure the safest possible installation: a) Opening safety beams which will prevent the gate from moving should anyone be in the path of the gate while OPENING.
Install the gate operator only if: 1. It will not pose a hazard to the public 2. There is sufficient clearance to a roadway and/or public thoroughfares 3. The installation will meet all municipal and/or local authority requirements once completed 4.
Guide-rollers and anti-lift brackets 1. Guide-rollers must ensure that the gate is held vertically 2. For improved safety, fit additional support post to prevent gate from falling over if guide-rollers fail 3. To prevent unauthorised access fit anti-lift brackets as shown 4.
3. Where possible determine the gate mass 4. The CentSys warranty will be void if the pull force and or gate mass, exceed the operator specification as below: Starting force - 40kgf &...

10. Operator Installation Locate operator position To ensure operator does not protrude into driveway, install base plate at least flush with the driveway entrance Determine a suitable position and vertical height for the operator by considering Figures 9 and 10. It is typical to mount the rack above the pinion as shown in Figures 9A and 10A for each type of rack considered.

11. Electrical Setup 1. Always check that the circuit breaker in the electrical panel is in the OFF position, and that all high voltage circuits (more than 42.4V) are completely isolated from the mains supply before doing any work. 2. Ensure that all low voltage systems (less than 42.4V) are suitably protected from damage, by disconnecting all sources of power such as chargers and batteries before doing any work.

21. Controller Features Menu 2 - Safety (collision force) 1. Collision force If the gate is obstructed, the internal collision circuitry will activate. The response of the system to a collision will vary, depending on the profile (operating standard, e.g. ZA,) selected. Responses can vary from the gate stopping, to the gate reversing.
Page 45
Menu 3 - Autoclose 1. Autoclose status When turned on, the Autoclose feature has the function of automatically closing the gate after a preset autoclose time. The Autoclose feature is automatically turned on when the controller is set for Condiminium Mode of operation.
Page 46
Sets the maximum opening speed in meters per minute. This can be set from 10 to 24 meters per minute on the D10, and 10 to 50 metres per minute on the D10 Turbo. Selecting MAX will move gate at maximum possible speed.

Sets the maximum closing speed in meters per minute. This can be set from 10 to 24 meters per minute on the D10, and 10 to 50 metres per minute on the D10 Turbo. Selecting MAX will move gate at maximum possible speed.
Page 48
The beam test for the closing beam is automatically enabled when the D10 Turbo option is turned on (D10 Turbo only). However, this can be disabled by the installer at his own risk.
Page 49
IR beam alarms While the gate is fully closed, this feature allows the following alarms: a) Ambush alarm Activates an alarm if either the opening or closing beams have been continuously interrupted for a predefined time. The alarm will remain activated while the beams are interrupted.
Page 50
Menu 7 - Pedestrian opening This feature is associated with the Ped input on the controller. When activating this input, the system will open the gate to the pedestrian open position, and then automatically close after the Pedestrian Autoclose time lapses. If the Ped connection to Com is maintained, then the gate will remain open, and when the connection is broken, it will close after the Pedestrian Autoclose time has expired.
Page 51
Menu 9 - ChronoGuard (Time-periods) 1. ChronoGuard™ (patent pending) is a powerful feature which has been added to the new generation CentSys controllers. An integral Real Time Clock (RTC) is used to provide time-based functionality, including the automatic activation or time-barring of specific controller inputs, and the time-barring of specified remote control buttons used together with the onboard NOVA rolling code receiver.
Page 52
3. Time-periods A time-period is defined by a start and end date and time. Up to 100 time-periods can be defined. A Time-period can be a once off event, or can be set to repeat on a weekly or annual basis. The weekly repeat can be chosen to occur on every day of the week, weekdays only, weekends only, or any specific day.

Requires a backup module, obtainable from CentSys. If the backup module is used to restore the settings of a different D10/D10 Turbo operator, then the gate limits setup procedure must be performed again. Menu 11 - Remote controls The controller is capable of learning up to 500 CentSys code-hopping (Keeloq encryption) remote controls buttons.

The time period can be set from one hour to seven days in one hour increments. 7. Tx menu locked Allows the remote controls menu to be locked, preventing the unauthorized addition of new transmitters to the system. Once enabled, the remote controls menu can only be accessed by pressing a valid transmitter button.

Pedestrian opening input. (A normally-open potential-free input). Momentarily connecting this input to Com will cause the gate to open to the pedestrian open position. For more information refer to the pedestrian feature in Section 21. Trigger input. (A normally-open potential-free input.) Momentarily connecting this input to Com will cause the gate to open, close or stop, depending on the operating mode selected.

Safe Common Used for switching the power supply to the safety beams. If automatic beam testing is required, the negative power supply connection of the beam transmitter only must be wired to this point. In addition, the beam test circuit must be switched on via Menu 6. See Section 21.
24. Diagnostics Diagnostic LEDs The D10/D10 TURBO controller has a series of diagnostic LEDs which indicate the state of the inputs. Normally-open inputs are indicated by a red LED, and normally-closed inputs by a green LED. An illuminated red LED indicates that the signal is present (e.g. intercom button pressed), while a non-illuminated green LED indicates that the signal is absent (e.g.

9. Battery might be old, and might have to be replaced. If in doubt test as follows: a) Check that the battery is charged, by ensuring that the battery voltage is above 25.0V with the charger connected. (If the battery is in a good condition it would probably pass the test without being fully charged) b) Disconnect the charger from the battery c) Remove the DC Motor leads from the DC Controller...
26. Manual Operation Manual release operation In the event of power failure, or product malfunction, it may be required to lock the cover in place whilst ‘latching’ the manual release (i.e. manual release permanently enabled). This helps prevent theft of the unit, or its components, and provides full protection from the elements.
27. Installation Handover Once the installation has been successfully completed and tested, it is important for the installer to explain the operation and safety requirements of the system. NEVER ASSUME THE USER KNOWS HOW TO SAFELY OPERATE AN AUTOMATED GATE! Even if the user has used one before, it does not mean he knows how to SAFELY operate it.
