2.1 Applications

WG2 is a set of components designed for the automation of single-leaf

or double-leaf gates in residential applications.

Any applications other than those described above or under

different conditions from those specified in this manual are

forbidden.

WG2 operates with electric power. In the event of a power failure, the

gearmotor can be released using suitable keys in order to move the gate

manually. Alternatively, the PR1 buffer battery (optional accessory) can

be used.

2.2 Description of the automation

16 WG2 Instructions

3.5.3 Checking the Radio Transmitters

After recognizing the devices, the control unit must learn to recognize the

leaves' opening and closing angles .

During this stage, the leaves' opening angle is measured from the

closing mechanical stop to the opening mechanical stop.

Fixed and sufficiently sturdy mechanical stops are required.

1 Release the motors using the appropriate keys (see the "Gearmotor

Release" paragraph on page 34) and move the leaves to mid travel so

that they are free to move in both opening and closing directions; then

lock the motors.

2On the control unit press the P3 button [B] and hold it down for at least

three seconds, then release the button.

Wait for the control unit to complete the recognition stage: closing of the

M1 motor to the mechanical stop, closing of the M2 motor to the

mechanical stop, opening of the M2 and M1 motors to the opening

mechanical stop; complete closing of M1 and M2.

•If the first manoeuvre of one or both leaves is not to close, press P3

to interrupt the recognition stage, then switch the polarity of the motor/s

that opened by exchanging the two brown and blue wires on the

terminal.

•If the first motor to move in the closing direction is not M1, press P3

to interrupt the recognition stage, then switch the motor connections on

the terminals.

•If any device is triggered during the recognition stage (photocells, key-

operated selector switch, pressure on P3, etc.), the recognition stage will

immediately be interrupted. It will therefore be necessary to start again

from the beginning.

3If at the conclusion of the search the P3 LED [A] flashes, it means that

an error has occurred; see paragraph 5.5 "Troubleshooting".

The opening angles recognition stage can be repeated again at any time,

even after the installation (for example, if one of the opening stops is

moved); just repeat the procedure starting from step 1.

3.5.2 Recognition of Gate Leaves' Opening and Closing Angles

Figure 57

To check the transmitters just press one of the four buttons, make sure

that the red LED flashes and that the automation executes the

command.

The command associated to each button depends on how they have

been memorized (see paragraph 5.4 "Memorization of Radio

Transmitters"). The transmitters supplied have already been memorized

and when you press the buttons the following commands are

transmitted:

Button T1 "OPEN" command

Button T2 "Open pedestrian gate" command

Button T3 "Open only" command

Button T4 "Close only" command

3.6 Regulations

3.6.1 Selecting the Speed of the Leaf

The leaves can be opened and closed at two speeds: "slow" or "fast".

To switch from one speed to the other press the P2 button [B]

momentarily; the corresponding P2 LED [A] will light up or go off; if the

LED is off the speed is "slow", if the LED is on the speed is "fast".

WG2 Instructions 7

The installation must be carried out by qualified and skilled

personnel in compliance with the directions provided in chapter

1 "WARNINGS".

3 Installation

3.1 Preliminary checks

WG2 must not be used to power a gate that is not efficient and

safe. It cannot solve defects resulting from incorrect installation

or poor maintenance of the gate.

Before proceeding with the installation you must:

•Make sure that the weight and dimensions of the gate fall

within the specified operating limits. If they do not, WG2 cannot

be used.

•Make sure that the structure of the gate is suitable for

automation and in compliance with regulations in force.

•Make sure that there are no points of greater friction in the

opening or closing travel of the gate leaves.

•Make sure that the gate is well balanced: it must not move by

itself when it is placed in any position.

•Make sure that the mounting positions of the various devices are

protected from impacts and that the surfaces are sufficiently sturdy.

•Make sure that the mounting surfaces of the photocells are flat

and that they enable the proper alignment between TX and RX.

•Check the size limits referring to Figure 10.

•Make sure there is enough space even when the gate is open.

•Using the leaf opening angle as a guideline, check that the

values in Table 6 can be met.

Max 150mm

•"C" depends on how the rear bracket is mounted (see Figure 17) and

may vary from 53 mm to 176 mm. It is normally about 150mm.

•"D" is easy to measure on the gate.

•"A" is the sum of "C" and "D".

•The value of "B" can be calculated from the value of "A" and the

opening angle of the leaves. For example: if "A" is 150mm and the

opening angle of the leaves is 100°, the value of "B" is about 150mm.

Make sure that "B" is equal or similar to "A". This ensures the leaf moves

smoothly, thereby reducing the strain on the gearmotor.

Figure 12

Table 6

8WG2 Instructions

3.1.1 Operating Limits

Chapter 6 "Technical Characteristics" provides the fundamental data

needed to determine whether all the WG2 components are suitable for

the intended application.

In general, WG2 is suitable for the automation of gates featuring leaves

up to 2 m wide, weighing up to 250 kg, with opening angle of up to 130°

for residential applications.

The shape of the gate and the climatic conditions (e.g. presence of

strong wind) may reduce these maximum limits. In this case it is

necessary to measure the torque needed to move the leaves under the

worst conditions, and to compare it to the data provided in the technical

characteristics chart for the WG1 gearmotor.

3.1.2 Tools and Materials

Make sure you have all the tools and materials needed to install

the system; make sure that they are in good condition and

serviceable according to current safety standards. See examples

in Figure 13.

3.1.3 List of Cables

The cables required for the installation of WG2 may vary depending on the type and quantity of devices to be installed; figure 14 shows the cables

needed for a typical installation; no cable is supplied with WG2.

Table 7: list of cables

Connection Cable type Maximum length allowed

[A] Power supply line 3x1.5mm2cable 30m (note 1)

[B] FLASH light output 2x0,5mm2cable 20m

[C] Radio aerial RG58 type shielded cable 20m (recommended less than 5m)

[D] ECSBus input/output 2x0,5mm2cable 20m (note 2)

[E] STOP input 2x0,5mm2cable 20m (note 2)

[F] OPEN input 2x0,5mm2cable 20m (note 2)

[G] M1 and M2 motors output 3x1mm2cable 10m

Figure 14

WARNING: the cables used must be suitable for the type of installation; for example, an H03VV-F type cable is recommended for indoor

applications, while H07RN-F is suitable for outdoor applications.

Note 1 A power supply cable longer than 30 m may be used provided it has a larger gauge, e.g. 3x2.5mm2, and that a safety grounding system

is provided near the automation unit.

Note 2 For the ESCbus, STOP and OPEN cables, there are no special contraindications to the use of a single cable that groups together multiple

connections; for example, the STOP and OPEN inputs can be connected to the KS1 selector switch using a single 4x0,5mm2cable.

1Choose the mounting position in accordance with the specifications in

paragraph 3.1 "Preliminary Checks".

2Check that the mounting surface is perfectly smooth, vertical and

sufficiently compact. WG1 does not come with a mounting system,

consequently one will have to be chosen according to the surface

material.

3Lay the conduit for the power cable.

4To obtain the rear supports, assemble two brackets and the rear plate

as shown in Figure 16.

5To obtain different "C" values (see Figure 12) assemble the brackets and

plate as shown in Figure 17.

6To obtain the front support, assemble one bracket and the front plate

as shown in Figure 18.

7Loosen the two screws and remove the back cover of the gearmotors.

8Move the leaves to the "gate closed" position.

9Referring to the "B" distance calculated from Table 6, place the rear

support in the correct position on the mounting surface, Check that there

is a suitable surface at the values in Figure 22, i.e. where the front

support is mounted.

10 Mark the drill points for the rear support using the support itself as a

reference point. Drill holes in the mounting surface for 4 anchors [A] with

a diameter of at least 8 mm (not included in supply). Fix the plate with

suitable screws [C] and washers [B].

WG2 Instructions 9

With the exception of the power line that supplies the control unit, the

rest of the system uses extra-low voltage (approx. 24V); the wiring can

therefore be done by personnel that is not properly qualified, provided

that all the instructions in this manual are carefully observed.

After selecting the position of the various devices (refer to figure 1) you

can start preparing the conduits for the electrical cables connecting the

devices to the control unit.

The conduits are designed to protect the electrical cables and prevent

accidental breakage, which may be caused by the passage of vehicles,

for instance.

3.2 Preparing the Electrical System

Although the connection of WG2 to the electrical mains is beyond the

scope of this manual, we wish to remind you that:

•The power supply line must be laid and connected by a

qualified professional electrician.

•Alternatively, have a suitably protected 16A "shuko" outlet

installed, where you can plug in WG2.

•The power supply line must be protected from short circuits

and ground leakage; a device must be provided to enable the

disconnection of the power supply during the installation and

maintenance of WG2 (the plug with outlet are suitable for this

purpose).
