Operation

Caution symbol:
Indicates a potential risk! Failure to follow instructions
may result in serious injuries!

The drive mechanism may only be operated if a risk-free force tolerance

has been set. The force tolerance must be set as low as is required to
ensure that the door's closing force does not constitute a danger.
Keep your hands clear of any moving door or any moving parts.
Keep children, disabled persons and animals away from the door.
Only drive into and out of the garage when the door is fully opened.
Risk of persons trapping or cutting themselves in/on the door system's
moving parts or edges where it closes.
If the door is not equipped with a small door, or if there is no alternative
access to the garage, install an emergency release system (emergency
release lock or Bowden cable) that can be activated from the outside.

Note symbol:

Safety information

Radio remote control

The radio remote control may only be used for equipment and systems
in which defective remote operation of the transmitter or receiver does
not constitute a risk to people, animals or objects, or in cases where this
risk is eliminated by means of additional safety facilities.
The user must be made aware of the fact that the remote control of
equipment with accident risk potential may only occur, if at all, when the
equipment concerned is clearly visible.
The radio remote control may only be used if movement of the door
can be supervised and there are no persons or objects in the area of
movement.
Store the remote control such that there is no risk of it being accidentally
operated by, for instance, children or animals.
The operator of this radio-controlled equipment is in no way protected
from interference from other telecommunications systems and facilities
(e.g. other radio-controlled equipment that is licensed to operate at the
same frequency range). Should serious interference be encountered,
please contact your nearest telecommunications office with interference
measuring facilities (radio signal localisation)!
Do not use the manually-operated remote control near locations or
installations that are susceptible to radio interference (airports,
hospitals).

General
These Installation and Operating Instructions must be read, understood
and observed by the person installing, operating or maintaining the drive
mechanism.
Installation, connection and initial operation of the drive mechanism may
only be carried out by qualified specialists.
Only install the drive mechanism on correctly aligned and weightbalanced doors. An incorrectly aligned door could cause serious injury
or damage to the drive mechanism.
The manufacturer cannot be made liable for any damage or disruptions
to operation occurring due to failure to comply with the Installation and
Operating instructions.
Ensure that these Installation and Operating Instructions are located in
the garage.
Observe and comply with the locally applicable accident prevention
regulations and EC standards.
Observe and comply with the directive on "Power-driven Windows,
Doors and Gates - BGR 232" of the Employers' Liability Insurance
Association (valid for the given user in Germany).
Always disconnect the power supply to the control unit before working
on the drive mechanism.
Only use the manufacturer's original spare parts, accessories and fixing
material.
If the drive mechanism is only used occasionally, the batteries should be
charged at least every two months according to the specifications.
The operating life of the batteries can be reduced at low temperatures
and upon aging of the batteries.

Intended use
Caution! Risk of serious damage to drive!
Do not open or close the door with the drive system without
first adjusting the balance weight (springs tensions). Otherwise, the motor (gear system) might be seriously damaged.
Caution! Danger of death!
Disassemble all cables, loops and locking mechanisms which
are necessary for manual activation of the door.

Storage
The APERTO X-Box may only be stored indoors, in a dry, closed
environment at an ambient temperature of between -20 and +50 C.

The drive is designed for the exclusive purpose of opening and closing
doors. Any other use does not constitute normal use. The manufacturer
accepts no liability for damage resulting from use other than normal use.
The user accepts sole responsibility for any risk thereby incurred.
Doors operating automatically with a drive must comply with the standards and directives valid at the given time: e.g. EN 12604, EN 12605.
The drive mechanism may only be used if it is in a technically perfect
condition and in compliance with these Installation and Operating Instructions (MBA) particularly regarding correct and responsible usage.
Any defects that may impair the safe operation of the equipment should
be eliminated without delay.
The door wings must be stable and warp-proof, i.e. they should not bend
or warp during opening or closing operations.
The drive mechanism is unable to compensate for any defects in the
door or for its incorrect installation.
Only use the drive mechanism in a dry, indoor environment where there
is no risk of explosion.
Do not use drive in rooms where a hostile environment prevails (e.g.
salty air.)

General Installation Information

Safety information

The door must be balanced.

Test: Manually open the door half-way. It must stay still in this

position.
If the door moves downwards or upwards, mechanically
readjust it. Ask your specialist retailer for advice.
Check the clearance between the door's highest up-position (THP,
see Fig. 11) and the lower edge of the C-rail. The distance between the
THP and lower edge of the C-rail must be min. 5 mm and max. 65 mm,
whereby the drive arm can only be at an angle of max. 30 (see Fig. 21)!
If the clearance is less than is permissible, the drive mechanism has
to be moved back and an extended drive rail fitted. Ask your specialist
retailer for advice.

Installation, connection and initial operation of the drive mechanism may

only be carried out by qualified specialists.
Do not operate the door when people, animals or objects are in its area
of movement.
Keep children, disabled persons and animals away from the door.
Safety goggles should be worn when drilling the mounting holes.
Cover the drive mechanism and rail when drilling to ensure no dirt can
get into the drive or drive rail.
The walls and ceiling must be firm and stable. Only fit the
drive mechanism to a correctly aligned door. A door that has
not been aligned correctly can cause serious injuries.

The distance over which the drive moves must be free of obstructions.
Obstructions must be removed properly before initial operation, as a
collision represents a safety risk and the drive could be damaged by this.

Only use approved fixing materials (e.g. screws, plugs) that are
appropriate for the given material the ceilings and walls are made of.

Setting of the top roller for a sectional door

The rail supply line supplied as standard may not be shortened. Only
use an original extension kit for lengthening.
Live parts of the drive (voltage-carrying parts e.g. C-rails)
may not be connected to earth or to the live parts or protective
conductors of other circuits.

Safety-relevant preparation of the

door
The preparations must be carried out with extreme care and
attention, as an incorrect preparation can cause serious
injuries, as well as considerable damage to the drive and your
garage.

Installation of outside access to

emergency release

Caution! Danger of death!

Disassemble all cables, loops and locking mechanisms which
are necessary for manual activation of the door.

Most garages are not provided with a separate entry (e.g. slipdoor).
As a result, the emergency release provided with the drive
must be guided outwards, so as to be able to open the door
from outside as well in the event of a power failure or defect.
For this, use the Bowden cable set (20) or a release lock (21),
which is not included in the scope of supply. (For installation,
see accessory instructions)

Installing the slip-door safety facility

If your garage door is fitted with a slip-door but no slip-door
safety facility (22) you need to have one installed (for installation,
see accessory instructions).

Doors must be stable because they are subjected to high traction and
pressure forces. Light doors made of plastic or aluminium must be
strengthened before installation if necessary. Ask your specialist retailer
for advice!
At the start of installation, all existing mechanical door locking
mechanisms must be removed or made non-functional.
A030809

Check that the door runs easily.

Installation
Installation tips

Choosing an installation option

Check that all the parts have been supplied before you start installation
work in order to save time and unnecessary work if a part is missing.

Select the required installation option. For option (A) change

position of power supply unit.

Installation work is best carried out by two persons for reliability and
speed.

Caution! The plastic chain case is not packaging. Do not

remove!

The drive mechanism can be installed to one side of the door if it cannot
be installed at the centre. It must be ensured that the door does not
bend as a result and jam in the guide rails..

Installation option A

Installation option B

Check:
Open and close the door several times by hand holding it at the point
where you intend fitting the drive mechanism.
If the door can be moved in this way without difficulty (in compliance
with the above forces), then the drive mechanism can be fitted at this
point.

Swing doors:
As the mechanical lock of a door with a drive mechanism has to be
dismantled or deactivated, it is possible to open the door manually up to
approx. 50 mm depending on the door construction.
In order act against this, spring latches can be mounted which also lock
the door in addition to the drive. These spring latches are connected
to the drive via a locking set in order to first unlock the spring latches
before a drive opens the door when opening the door.
Other pulse generators include: Hand-held transmitter,
Funkcody, radio-operated interior switches and key-operated
switches. In the case of the hand-held transmitter, Funkcody
and radio-operated interior switch, no cable need be run to the
drive. Contact your local dealer for advice.

Initial Operation
Safety information

Initial operation of battery units

Insert fuses

Once the drive has been installed, the person responsible for
installation has to issue an EU Conformity Declaration for the
door system in accordance with Machine Directive 98/37/EC
as well as fitting the CE seal and the rating plate.
This also applies to doors installed for private purposes and
in cases where the drive has been retrofitted to a manual door.
These Instructions as well as the drive's Installation and
Operating Instructions should be kept by the user for
reference purposes.

Insert glass-tube fuses supplied (T 6A) in the fuse holders on the outside of
the battery units.
The figure shows the right battery unit, left side correspondingly.

The force setting is relevant to the systems safety and must

therefore be carried out by trained personnel with due care
and attention. An excessively high force setting can injure
people and/or animals and damage property.
Select as low a force setting as possible to ensure that
obstacles are identified in a fast, safe manner.
Risk of falling!
When operating the emergency release, it is possible that
the door may open or close automatically due to the spring
breaking or the weight balance being set incorrectly. Drive can
suffer damage or be destroyed.

Hang battery units into holding rail

Setting Door OPEN + CLOSED end

positions

The two holding rails must be mounted absolutely parallel and

vertical to each other for perfect functioning.
Hang in the batteries units so that the fuse is on the outer
side.

Open and close the gate manually while adjusting the settings. Do not operate it with the engaged drive system.
The distance over which the drive mechanism moves the door can be
increased/reduced by using the slide switch (V + H).
Check that the door opens and closes completely. If it does not, its travel
must be adjusted.
Ensure that the distance over which the drive moves is free
of obstructions! Obstructions (e.g. cross bars between the
runner rails of the door) will damage the drive and must be
removed properly before initial operation!
Check the following:
Have all mechanical door locking mechanisms been removed?

Initial Operation
Teaching in drive

Checking emergency release

In vertical-sectional doors, you have the option to activate the
back-jump with DIP switch 6 in order to release the load from
the drive system and the door. This is a simple way to activate
the emergency release.

The control unit is equipped with an automatic force setting facility. During
the door movements OPEN and CLOSE, the control unit automatically
reads in the force required and memorises it when the given final travel
position is reached.
The drive should be taught in by two persons. One person operates
the drive, while the other person remains outside the garage as a
safety observer.

1
V

Insert both battery units in the control unit before you teach in
the drive!
Insert drive connector (XLR connector) on the underside of the control unit.

Close door with drive mechanism.

Pull the emergency release handle (N) once.
If the emergency release cannot be operated, loosen the limit switch (V)
and move it in direction (1).
Open the door with the drive mechanism and close it again. Test emergency release again.

Checking force setting

The first movement by the drive after connecting the

X-Box must always be Door OPEN. If this is not the case,
please contact your specialist dealer.

Whenever the door is opened or closed, the control unit compares the
memorised force setting with the force actually needed and automatically
adjusts the memorised setting accordingly when the given final travel position is reached.

Defined opening and closing (DIP 7)

Procedure:
1. Close door

If this function is activated, only button 1/radio channel 1 can

open the door and only button 2/radio channel 2 can close it.

2. Set DIP switch 8 to ON, thus activating partial opening functionality

- leave DIP switch 8 in ON position; the OFF position automatically
deletes the partial opening function that has been set.
3. Press button 2 (opens door from CLOSED final travel position)
- door opens until such time as button 2 is pressed again or OPEN final
travel position has been reached.
4. Press button 2 when the desired position has been reached.
5. Close door by pressing button 2
The required partial opening adjustment has thus been set. Press button 2
to open door to set position.
Set DIP switch 8 to OFF position to delete partial opening setting

Partial opening via remote control (2-channel operation)

Teaching in 2 remote control buttons:
e.g. button 1 on to radio channel 1 and button 2 on to channel 2.

Button 1/Radio channel 1 opens the door and button 2/radio channel 2
closes it. This function can also be performed using just two buttons or just
the remote control.

Radio channel 1 always has the same function as button 1

Radio channel 2 always has the same function as button 2

Requirement:
DIP switch 8 OFF, button 2 connected (DIP switch 2 ON) or 2 remote
control buttons have been taught in.

Partial opening (DIP 8)

This function opens the door partially, depending on the given setting.
Ideas for use: garage ventilation, opening of side-opening door for personal
access, to name but a few. Partial opening can be used in combination with
two push-buttons or just the remote control.
Before teaching in the second opening height (before DIP8 is
moved to ON), the drive must be correctly taught in!

Troubleshooting
Further troubleshooting tips

Complete control system reset (deletion of programmed force values).

Disconnect any accessories that may have been connected
(e.g. light barrier).

Many problems can be solved by a control reset (deletion of

force values) and subsequent reprogramming of the drive!

Set all DIP switches to default settings.

Homelink compatible!
If the latest Homelink version (Version 7) is installed in your
vehicle, our drive mechanism/radio receiver with 868.6 MHz is
compatible with this. In the case of older Homelink versions,
you need to use another radio frequency (40,685 or
434,42 MHz).
You can find more information at http://www.eurohomelink.
com or contact your specialist dealer.

Reset potentiometer to the default settings.

If settings have been changed using the TorMinal, carry out a control
unit reset using the TorMinal.
Check all connections at the direct plug-type adapters and the terminal
bar (sprint/duo), and retighten them, if necessary.
