5 - 7 Power Supply
The circuit has been designed to operate with a main supply of 230 V AC (+10%,-15%, 50
or 60 Hz).
The VF7+ CAN incorporates a soft-start system to control the bulk capacitors charge and
prevent short circuits.

Note: It is important that the Door Operator Module has a good earth connection.

The serial port is used to connect with external devices, interfaces
and future expansion devices.
Operating speed 1.200 Baud per second, current loop.

21 - 26 Priority Inputs

21. Reopen
This signal may be used to connect the cabin “door open” button, an external barrier or
other devices. In order to activate this signal connect the re-open input (21) with the +12 V
(23). Use voltage free contacts. The reopening signal has priority over the closing signal.

22. Barrier failure

This input is used to detect a failure from the Photoelectric Barrier installed.

23. Out +12 V

Isolated 12 Volts output available to activate the priority inputs via a voltage free contact.
Features are:
a) This supply must only be used for this purpose.
b) This contact must be isolated from any other power supply.

24. Bypass contact

This signal is used to connect an external security switch to detect door closed position.

VF7+ CAN 3
 INPUTS / OUTPUTS

25. Slow Close

This signal is used for ordering the door to close slowly. The slow close signal has priority
over the control signals and the barrier. It is designed to operate with fire fighting systems.

26. Floor Level

This input is used to connect the external emergency supplier to power an opening cycle in the
event a power failure when the lift is at a floor level. The Fermator emergency supplier uses a
12V battery, and it is able to provide power for 30 seconds to enable passenger evacuation.

Led indicators
A simple set of colours or modes in the LED indicators helps service personnel to identify
communication problems quickly without raving to check manuals for each status display.

OK status
LED for power indication and extra functionality during the learning
process is used. Blinking green led indicating proper working OK STATUS
conditions. If an alarm occurs the LED illuminates red.

There are two CAN LEDs: one red CAN ERR and one green CAN RUN.
• Indicator status and flash rates
The following Indicator states are displayed:
-- LED on: constantly on
-- LED off: constantly off
-- LED flickering: iso-phase on and off with a frequency of approximately 10 Hz: on
for approximately 50 ms and off for approximately 50 ms.
-- LED blinking: iso-phase on and off with a frequency of approximately 2,5 Hz: on
for approximately 200 ms followed by off for approximately 200 ms.
-- LED single flash: one short flash (approximately 200 ms) followed by a long off
phase (approximately 1.000 ms).
-- LED double flash: a sequence of two short flashes (approximately 200 ms),
separated by an off phase (approximately 200 ms). The sequence is finished by
a long off phase (approximately 1.000 ms).

Test Carries out a door open or close cycle to verify proper operation.

Door Learning Carries out a Door Learning process to set up the door.
If the Motor calibration has not been completed before, it will be carried out during this process.
This process must be carries out without the landing door coupled.
The door will carry out a close movement and then will carry out two complete movements to detect the clear
opening. From the information obtained the microprocessor will calculate the acceleration and deceleration ramps
to give the optimum control of the doors. Once the learning process has been completed the parameters are stored
in non-volatile EEPROM.
Learning process:

1. The door will close completely in slow speed until the end to detect the 0 position. If the first movement is
not “close” and the “Bypass Connected to circuit” is connected and “Change rotation by Bypass” activated
the VF7+ CAN will arrive at open position, and will automatically change the rotation sense. Then it will
start to close.
2. The door will open slowly counting the pulses from the encoder until it reaches the open mechanical stop.
”When it starts to open, it is necessary to open the CDL with by hand”
3. The door will close after a short delay. It will calculate the acceleration and deceleration ramps to give the
optimum control of the doors.

Note: If the last movement is not “close” without “Bypass Connected to circuit” it is necessary to change the
rotation sense and restart the Door Learning process.

Program Calibration

Program Calibration

Calibration The motor calibration process has to be carried out to detect the electrical characteristics of the motor
installed.

The calibration has to be carried out only once when the motor or the VF7+ CAN module are replaced.

Remove the motor belt before carrying out a calibration.

To perform an optimal calibration of the motor installed the process has to be carried out without load.
Never perform calibration with the car door and landing door coupled.

 CAN COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL

The CAN communication is done with short messages using a frame. The messages are sent in
hexadecimal code.

First, it is sent the reception or transmission Node. This parameter specifies the reception node or the
transmission node from the frame. This parameter takes 2 bytes.

Then, it is sent the Data Frame, which contains the message. The Data Frame takes 8 bytes.

All Data Frames begin with the same structure:

• Read/Write&Byte/Word: The first parameter indicates the action to be performed, Read or Write,
and the size of the parameter to read or write. This parameter takes 1 byte.

Action Size Code

Byte 0x5B
Read
Word 0x39

Byte 0xB5
Write
Word 0x93

To perform the communication, three types of Data Frame are used:

– Frame Rx (call back).
– Frame Tx.
– Frame Rx.

Frame Rx (call Back)

This frame indicates the operator state, it is a reception frame. It is updated and sent automatically every
100 milliseconds.
Structure:

-- State Frame structure:

The code that indicates that the State Frame starts is 0xFE1E.

• Activate the Test option to open the door and verify the proper operation. Activate again the test
option to close the door.

6. Connect the wires coming from the lift controller

• Connect the CAN communication cables (# 60 to #63).
• Connect the priority inputs cables (#21 to #26).

If the circuit board is already installed only do this steps

1. Connections
• Connect the motor wire and encoder wire (#55, #56, #57, #58, #59).
• Disconnect all other inputs and CAN.
• If it has been installed the Bypass to the VF7+ CAN, Connect the bypass wire (#23, #24).
• Connect the 230 V AC mains supply to the controller (#5, #6, #7).

2. Switch on the VF7+ CAN door controller button I/O in the front of the box.

 INSTALLATION PROCESS

3. Select the CAN Door. Go to Menu CAN and select the Door.

4. Place the door in the middle position in order to see the starting movement.

5. Activate the Door Learning option to start the learning cycle. Go to Menu Program → Program
Actions in the VF7+ CAN Graphic Interface.
This process must be done without the landing door coupled.

The correct steps that the door has to make are:

The door will close completely in slow speed until the end to detect the 0 position.
If the first movement is not “close” and the “Bypass Connected to circuit” is connected and “Change
rotation by Bypass” activated the VF7+ CAN will arrive at the open position and it will automatically
change the rotation sense. Then it will start to close.
The door will open slowly counting the pulses from the encoder until it reaches the open mechanical
stop. ”When it starts to open, it is necessary to open the CDL with by hand”
The door will close after a short delay. It will calculate the acceleration and deceleration ramps to
give the optimum control of the doors.

Note: If the last movement is not “close” without Bypass Connected to circuit, it is necessary to
change the rotation sense and restart the Door Learning process .

6. Door Test
• Activate the Test option to open the door and verify the proper operation. Activate again the
test option to close the door.

7. Connect the wires coming from the lift controller

• Connect the CAN communication cables (# 60 to #63).
• Connect the priority inputs cables (#21 to #26).

POWER FAILURES

The VF7+ CAN incorporates two new security systems related to power failures:

• Anti-banging system: When a power failure occurs while the door is opening, closing or fully open,
the new anti-banging system brakes the PM motor to perform a slow closing and avoid the door
slamming on closing.

• CDL electronic: When a power failure occurs while the door is fully closed, the VF7+ CAN detects
the voltage drop and opens the CDL if the car is at the floor level. This new security system could be
used with a CDL. The CDL electronic system could be enabled or disabled by software.

Note: After the power supply has been restored and the open signal is activated the doors will open slowly
for the first operation in order to recognize the clear opening.

LIFT STANDARD EN 81-20/50

In this section the modifications are listed for customer awareness in order to comply with the new lift
standard EN 81-20/50.

Kinetic energy

• The average closing speed has to be limited to 10 J. To create this limit it is necessary to know
the moving mass, the door opening and the number of door panels. These parameters are
programmed by default except when the unit is a spare part. In this case the parameters have
to be introduced by the VF7+ CAN menu program .

In order to comply with the standard it is necessary to configure some options and parameters:

Menu Option Configuration to comply EN 81-20/50

Door model. Select door model.

Photoc. / Curtain timer. Enable.

Eco Mode. Select modes Control, Close delay or Control delay.

Security Device. Curtain.

Programming options
Close Anticipated (recommended). Enable.

Unlock on standby. Enable.

Temperature measurement. Enable.

Energy limit. Enable.

Menu Option Configuration to comply EN 81-20/50

Max. open torque. Limit only in case of a glass door. If glass door the value must to be up to 1,2.

Programming parameters Max. close torque. Up to 1,2.

Door mass. Masses of the door and landing door. To know check Annex 1 and Annex 2.

Light curtain
• The light curtain is mandatory and it can be
connected to the lift controller or to the VF7+
CAN in the pin 21.
• In case of failure or deactivation of the light
curtain the kinetic energy of the doors must be
BARRIER
limited to 4J. To limit it the lift controller has to FAILURE
activate the slow close input, pin 25, of VF7+
CAN.

Overheating protection
• The internal temperature of the PM motor is measured by the VF7+ CAN when the option of
“Temperature measurement” inside the “Programming options” menu is enabled.

Door contact
• A separate monitoring signal is necessary to check that the car door(s) is / are in the closed
position. To comply this point an additional door contact is added, and the signal should be
connected to the lift controller.
The maximum contact rating is 2 A 230 Vac.
