ELECTRONIC INSTALLATION

During the electronic installation, carefully follow these procedures.

Initial Wiring

Connect the start contact, common contact, and pedestrian contact according to the provided instructions.

Connection Terminals

Connect the control devices to the designated terminals on the control unit:

  • Terminal 1 and 2 for key, selector, or start button.
  • Terminal 2 and 3 for pedestrian passage.
  • Terminal 4, 5, 6, and 7 for photocells and other safety devices.
  • Terminal 11 and 12 for powering additional devices.
  • Terminals for connecting the motor, courtesy light, and flashing light.
  • Terminals for general power supply and grounding.

Dip Switches

Configure the dip switches according to the specific needs:

  • Dip 1 (use of sliding gate): Off.
  • Dip 2 (automatic closing): enable/disable selection.
  • Dip 3 (communal or step-by-step mode).
  • Dip 4 (left/right motor position), reverses the motor phases.
  • Dip 5-7 (safety control: photocells, mechanical edge, slowdown).
  • Dip 8 (encoder activation).
  • Dip 9-10 (advanced configuration for optimized and specific operation).

FAQ KV8

WHY AUTOMATE A GATE?

  • Simpler and safer daily life
  • Ensured that the gate is always securely closed
  • No more fear of bad weather: it opens and closes via remote control or app on the phone

WHO ISSUES THE CERTIFICATION?

Dieffematic issues the certification on the product itself, according to UNINISO 9001 standard, covering the electronic and mechanical parts and the use of the product.

The installer issues the certification because they need to make the system safe and compliant with regulations.

PROBLEMS WITH OPENING AND CLOSING?

If the automation does not respond to commands or there is no power, refer to the instructions for manual unlocking.

If the gate opens but does not close, it is a problem with the safety system of the photocells. The photocell may be obstructed or dirty.

For random gate openings, check the start or remote control inputs physically to ensure whether there are start points from selectors, buttons, or intercom, or if there is a possibility of radio interference at the gate. It is recommended to reset and reprogram the remote controls. The reasons could be two: either the remote control battery is discharging, or there is some interference in the area that has lowered the reception capacity of the antenna and the receiver itself. To resolve the problem, check the battery or introduce an external receiver/antenna.
