4) TERMINAL BOARD CONNECTIONS (Fig.3)
WARNING - During wiring and installation operations, refer to the current
standards and to principles of good technical practice.
Wires powered at different voltages must be physically separated, or suitably
insulated with at least 1 mm extra insulation. The wires must be clamped by an
extra fastener near the terminals, for example by bands.
The capacitors must be inserted inside the control unit box and adequately
fixed to it.
WARNING! For connection to the mains, use a multipolar cable with a
2
minimum of 3x1.5mm cross section and complying with the previously
mentioned regulations. For example, if the cable is out side (in the open), it
has to be at least equal to H07RN-F, but if it is on the inside (or outside but
placed in a plastic cable cannel) it has to be or at least egual to H05VV-F
with section 3x1.5mm 2 .

5) PROGRAMMING
The control panel provided with a microprocessor is supplied with function
parameters preset by the manufacturer, suitable for standard installations. The
predefined parameters can be altered by means of either the incorporated display
universal palmtop programmer.
In the case where programming is carried out by means of universal palmtop
programmer, carefully read the instructions relating to universal palmtop pro-
grammer, and proceed in the following way.
Connect the universal palmtop programmer to the control unit through the
UNIFLAT accessory (See fig. 4). Enter the "CONTROL UNITS" menu, and the "PA-
RAMETERS" submenu, then scroll the display screenfuls using the up/down arrows,
and set the numerical values of the parameters listed below.
For the function logics, refer to the "LOgIC" submenu.
In the case where programming is carried out by means of the incorporated
programmer, refer to Fig. A and B and to the "configuration" paragraph.
6) CONFIGURATION
The display programmer is used to set all the ALTAIR-P control panel functions.
The programmer is provided with three pushbuttons for menu scrolling and
function parameter configurations (Fig. 2):
+ menu scrolling/value increment key
- menu scrolling/value reduction key
OK Enter (confirm) key
The simultaneous pressure of the + and – keys is used to exit the active menu
and move to the preceding menu.
If the + and – keys are pressed simultaneously at the main menu level (parameters,
logics, radio, language, default), programming is exited and the display is switched
off (the END message is displayed).
The modifications made are only set if the OK key is subsequently pressed.
When the OK key is pressed for the first time, the programming mode is entered.
The following pieces of information appear on the display at first:
- Control unit Software version
- Number of total manoeuvres carried out (the value is expressed in thousands,
therefore the display constantly shows 0000 during the first thousand ma-
noeuvres)
- Number of manoeuvres carried out since the latest maintenance operation
(the value is expressed in thousands, therefore the display constantly shows
0000 during the first thousand manoeuvres)
- Number of memorised radio control devices.
When the OK key is pressed during the initial presentation phase, the first menu
(parameters) can be accessed directly.
Here follows a list of the main menus and the respective submenus available.
The predefined parameter is shown between square brackets [ 0 ].
The writing appearing on the display is indicated between round brackets.
Refer to Figures A and B for the control unit configuration procedure.

6.1) PARAMETERS MENU

- Operation time (vork. t) [010.0s]
Set the numerical value of the operation time from 3 to 180 seconds.

the points established by the EN 12445 standard is lower than that speci-
fied in the EN 12453 standard.
Incorrect sensitivity setting can cause injuries to persons or
animals, or damage to things.

Set the opening delay time between 1 and 10 seconds.
- Closing delay time (cls delay time) [ 001.0s ]
Set the closing delay time between 1 and 60 seconds.
- Motor torque (mot torque) [ 050% ]
Set the numerical value of the motor torque between 1% and 99%.
