Testing The Automated System; Manual Release; Maintenance - tau ARM200 Serie Bedienungs- Und Wartungsanleitung

Be careful not to run cables for auxiliary devices inside raceways housing other cables supplying power to large loads or
lights with electronic
In the event control pushbuttons or indicator lights are installed inside homes or offices several metres from the actual
control unit, it is advisable to decouple the signal by means of a relay in order to avoid induced
6. START-UP
Carefully observe points 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of the SAFETY GENERAL RULES.
With reference to the indications in fig.3 and in the table (see paragraph INSTALLATION), set the ducts and carry out the electrical connec-
tions of the control board and of the chosen accessories.
Choose short routes for cables and keep power cables separate from control cables.
1) Power the system and check the status of the LED's according to the control unit instructions.
2) Program the control board according to the needs by following the given instructions.

7. TESTING THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM

• Carefully check operating efficiency of the automated system and of all accessories connected to it, paying special attention to the safety
devices.
• Hand the "User Guide" to the final user together with the Maintenance register.
• Explain correct operation and use of the automated system to the user.
• Indicate the potentially dangerous areas of the automated system to the user.

8. MANUAL RELEASE

If the automated system needs to be moved manually due to a power lack or to an actuator malfunction, proceed as follows:
1_ Cut power by means of the safety circuit breaker (even in the event of a power lack).
2_ Slide the protective cap, fig.17;
3_ Insert the key and turn it 90°, fig.18.
4_ As shown in fig.19, rotate the release lever upward in order to release the actuator.
5_ Open or close the leaf manually.
Note: To hold the actuator in manual operation the release device should be left in its current positions and the system
should be without power.
9. RESTORING NORMAL OPERATION
To restore normal operating conditions, proceed as follows:
1_ Lock the release lever by rotating it downward.
2_ Turn 90° the release key and remove it.
3_ Close the protection cover.
4_ Power up the system and perform some movements in order to check the correct restoring of every function of the automated system.
10. USE
Actuators ARM225I - ARM225BI, ARM250I - ARM250BI - ARM250BR and ARM270I – ARM270BI - ARM290BI are designed to move gates with a
maximum length of, respectively, 3.0, 4.0 , 5.0 and 6.0 metres.
It is expressly forbidden to use the device for any other purposes or under any other circumstances other than those mentioned. The
electronic control unit (which must be fitted with an electric clutch) allows the following functions to be selected:
automatic : a command impulse opens and shuts the gate
semiautomatic : a command impulse opens or shuts the gate.
In the event of a power failure, the gate may be moved manually by activating the "manual release" device. Mod. ARM200BENC can be pow-
ered by a buffer battery and is able to perform at least 15 complete cycles (open and close) on its own.
This is an electrically powered automatic device and should therefore be used with care. In particular:
• do not touch with wet hands and/or wet or bare feet;
• disconnect the power supply before opening the control box and/or the actuator;
• do not pull the plug out by its cable;
• do not touch the motor unless you are certain it is cool;
• only operate the gate when it is completely visible;
• carry out routine maintenance;

11. MAINTENANCE

To censure trouble-free operation and a constant safety level, an overall check of the system should be carried out every 6 months.
A form for recording operations has been included in the "User Guide" booklet.
Switch off the mains power supply to eliminate the risk of electrocution. If the power supply must be left on for certain operations, each
control device should be checked or disabled (remote controls, push button strips, etc.) except for the one used by the maintenance man.
The ARM200 / ARM200BENC actuators need very little maintenance. However, as the gate must be in good working order for them to work
properly, the operations required to keep it in perfect condition are described below.
Routine maintenance
Each of the following operations must be carried out every 6 months for domestic use (approx. 3000 work cycles) and every 2 months for
intensive use such as blocks of flats (always 3000 work cycles).
WARNING: In the event installation is to take place in areas exposed to a great deal of sea spray and/or sand (maritime
regions, desert zones, etc.), maintenance will need to be performed at shorter intervals, every 2/3 months.

- lubricate and grease the hinges of the gate.
