CABLE PLAN

The plan shows the site from inside the property. A duct is shown across the

road containing a motor cable and a photocell cable. The junction box on

the right may be omitted for FERNI or FAST sets. Note the photocell cable

passes through the backs of the boxes and piers to photocell positions. The

mains supply should be armoured or in a duct. Always include a draw string.

Above ground cables have been shown unsleeved for clarity. Conduits are

tidy and good practice.

SPECIFICATION

MOTOR.

Sequenced operation of two motor outputs with adjustable torque.

SEQUENCE CONTROL.

Adjustable motor run time, adjustable timed re-closure, and

adjustable leaf delay. Timed re-closure is switch enabled.

RADIO CONTROL

12 bit coded transmitters. Plug-on receiver head with 433MHz

SAW filter. Flash memory single code storage.

SAFETY

Single photocell safety circuit to re-open during closure in fault

condition. Normally closed circuit. Fail safe photocell logic.

POWER

240Vac supply internally fused at 5A.

24Vac accessory output not to exceed 20W loading.

CABLE TYPES

The motor cable requires an earth, a neutral and

two live conductors with a current rating of 5A.

Duct cable should be waterproof. Final runs to

ATI motors must be flexible. FROG motors have

a 2 metre cable (excl. earth) fitted.

Photocell cables should be 2 core and 4 core for

transmitter and receiver respectively. It is good

practice to use 4 core for both.

MOTORS w3

Frog motors require capacitor in the

control box. M1 capacitor fits to the

black wires, M2 capacitor to the red.

See note r5 for setting Frog direction.

PHOTOCELLS w4

DIR photocells have plug on screw

terminals. The receiver (Rx) needs a

4 core cable. The transmitter needs a

2 core cable. Set the voltage jumper

to 24V. Range is 10m when the Rx &

Tx face each other within 5 degrees.

EARTHING w1

You must create an earthing pointing

in the enclosure to bond the incoming

earth to the two motors and other any

metal gate parts deemed necessary.

MAINS SUPPLY w2

IEEE regulations designated a drive

as a special location which must be

protected by a RCCB. The supply

should be fused at no less than 6A

and supply cable rated appropriately.

Electrical work is notifiable under P

part of building regulations.

BOARD SETTINGS w5

Leave switch 1 off. Switch 2 is ‘on’ for

automatic closure. To close the gate

by radio transmitter only, set switch 2

to ‘off’. This disables the auto-close.

RADIO CONTROLS w6

Hang a single core wire 346mm long

from the terminal. If radio range

is poor, a tuned antenna can be fitted.

Plug the radio head onto the plug (9).

TORQUE SETTING c2

The power of the motor is set on the

transformer. A black wire connects to

the transformer in one of 4 positions

by a white fast-on connector. Select

the lowest setting (

from 1 to 4

) that will

ensure reliable satisfactory operation.

RUN TIME SETTING c3

The motor running time is set by ‘TL’

(

adjustment 5

). Set such that the motor

with the longest travel arrives 2 secs

before the motor switches off. Run

time is less important on motors with

limit switches. The overrun time will

be added to the open period.

INTERLEAF DELAY c4

This allows overlapping gate leaves

to close in the right order by applying

a delay before closing motor 2 (

WXY

)

AUTOMATIC CLOSING c5

Auto-closing is enabled by switching

DIP 2 on (up) on switch block 8. The

gates re-close from 1 to 60 sec after

opening. The open period is set on 7.

The LED indicator flashes once per

second during the open period.

Mains in Aerial

Changes should be made by competent

persons only. Always disconnect power

before making any wiring changes.

TRANSMITTERS

The TOP432s code is set on switches

inside the transmitter. We recommend

changing the code from that supplied.

To copy a code to a new transmitter,

set the switches until they match.
