Radio-controlled gate driver E124

Key features

• Swing gate control board for 24V operators
• Additional programming features accessible via a device with USB port

Product details
The E124 control board is considered to be one of the highest performance electronic control units for swing gates currently available on the market. Compatible with FAAC 24V swing gate systems; the E124 will also control other brands. It is a highly flexible control board with a huge range of variable parameters for swing gate installations.

It has high levels of programmability, it offers:

• 10 standard logics which can be further customized to give almost unlimited programming
• 50 different power levels and 10 different speeds which can be varied independently allowing maximum performance whilst monitoring anti crush safety
• Powerful motor outputs allow up to 36Vdc to be supplied to the FAAC motors, enabling higher speeds compared to other 24V boards
• Management of limit switches and encoders for safety and compliance to standards

Other features

• Ultra sense function for obstacle detection with hydraulic operators
• Hold closed function to pulse leaves closed every 1 to 48 hours
• Cycle counter showing total number of cycles or can be set to request assistance after a set number of cycles
• 32 bit processor platform with capacity for software developments; software developments can be uploaded to the board via a USB connector
• Can be programmed via push buttons and advanced programming can be undertaken via PC (software available)

PC programming
PC programming allows access to all the installation parameters, easily adjustable at the touch of a button and there is a password protection option. A simple plug in USB cable connects the PC to the control board. The connection of the PC allows the operation of the system to be monitored in real time, providing data for fine-tuning. Existing control board programming can be uploaded to a connected PC for analysis or modification.

Tech Specs

• Switchable anti-wind feature to manage operation in windy conditions
• Adjustable deceleration times and speed to be programmed to specific site requirements
• Battery back up option available (UK-BATTERY)
• Pedestrian command programmable for any percentage opening required and different pause times; includes dead man feature for testing motor direction and function
• Two connectors for radio control reception allowing two different radio frequencies to be managed simultaneously (one for XF receivers and one for RP/decoder/minidec receivers); 2nd channel of XF receiver can be programmed to activate an output on the board
• Built-in 6 event, 7 day timer with summer time adjustment; can be wired to hold gates open or isolate inputs
• Automatically logs the last 128 events once time and date set; event log retrievable with PC
• Programmable inputs and programmable outputs
• New BUS (2easy) accessories can be used alongside conventional safety devices on the same system
• Force and speed can be varied independently, adding flexibility
• Allows for maximum thrust at opening or closing, enabling safer running of the system
