Important notice
We are obliged to remind you that you are working on equipment
classified in the following category:
“Automatic gates and doors”, which are considered to be especially
“Dangerous”; you must make them as “Safe”
as reasonably pos
-
sible!
Only qualified, expert personnel must carry out the installation and
any servicing required, making the best possible job of it and in ac
-
cordance with the following laws, standards and directives (norms,
decrees of the President of the Republic and law decrees are only
valid for Italy; EEC Directives are, on the other hand, applicable for
the whole of Europe):
- UNI 8612 (Motorised gates and doors: construction criteria and ac
-
cident prevention equipment)
- DPR N° 46 of 5/03/1990 (Standards for the safety of electrical
installations, authorised personnel)
- Dlgs N° 459/96 of 24/07/96 (EEC directive 89/392, “Machinery
Directive”)
- Dlgs N° 615/96 of 12/11/96 (EEC directive 89/336, Directive on
Electromagnetic Compatibility)
- Dlgs N° 626/96 of 26/11/96 (EEC directive 93/68, Low Voltage
Directive)
When designing and producing its products, Nice observes (as re-
gards the equipment) all the above standards but it is of paramount
importance that the installer too (as regards the systems) strictly ob-
serves the same standards.
Unqualified personnel or those who do not know the standards appli
-
cable to the “Automatic gates and doors” category:
must not install
systems.
Whoever carries out systems without observing all the applicable
standards:
Will be held responsible for any damages that the
system may cause!

Description of the
product
The electronic card is suitable for controlling OPEN model road boom
gates with 24 V DC motors.
This is an entirely new design where the actuator has a limit switch
with a speed control system that makes it possible to reach the travel
limits by means of a slowing down phase. In addition, the effort the
motor is subject to during movement is promptly detected as well as
any obstacles that may be in the path and in such an event direction
is reversed.
The most advanced techniques and sophisticated components
have been employed in the project to guarantee maximum immunity
against interference, greater flexibility of use and the widest possible
range of programmable functions.
It can be controlled “manually”, “semiautomatically” or “automatical-
ly”. There are also certain highly sophisticated functions like “Reclose
immediately after Photocell” or “Reclose always”, “Flashing also in
pause” as well as other operating functions such as “Gradual Start-
up” and “Slowing down” (a standard feature) plus a sensitive “Brake”
that only comes into play if movement has to be stopped hastily.
The whole range of KING-GATES radio receivers can be inserted on
the card.
In view of the particularity of the product, before you start the instal-
lation and hookup, here is a brief description of the most important
elements on the control card:

The OK LED (

) has the task of signalling the correct functioning of
the internal logic and must flash at 1 second intervals; it indicates
that the internal microprocessor is active and waiting for commands.
Whenever there is a change in the state of an input (whether it is a
command input or function switch) a fast double flashing is gener
-
ated which happens even if the change does not have an immediate
effect. Fast flashing at 5 second intervals means that the power volt

age is insufficient.
When the unit is powered, the indicator lights on the inputs (

) turn
on if that particular input is active and hence 24 V DC control voltage
is present. Normally, the LEDs on the safety inputs, PHOTOCELL,
