Commissioning Guide - IRA_DFA_127 | Record DFA 127

6. Commissioning

6.1 CAN bus connections

6.1.1 CAN bus topology

IMPORTANT:
  • Each component has two CAN bus connections that must be assigned.
  • The CAN bus connection must be provided with a termination plug (120 Ω) at both ends.
  • Place the termination plug on empty connectors!
NOTICE: The BDE-D control panel is equipped with a termination resistor.

6.1.2 Using CAN cable

IMPORTANT: Using the wrong CAN cable can cause malfunctions or operational failure.
  • Only use the supplied cables.
  • Order new or additional cables from the producer of the system.

Cable Selection

RJ10 2x4P cross-linked connectors (pre-assembled):

  • Art. 102-020808481: CAN cable 1000 mm (supplied with Function Expansion Module FEM -0)
  • Art. 102-020808718: CAN cable 1500 mm (recommended stock item)
  • Art. 102-020808406: CAN cable 2500 mm (supplied with CAN-enabled sensors)

6.1.3 Using CAN connector

CAUTION: Malfunctions of the system

Poor connections can lead to malfunctions of the system.

  • Precisely connect the CAN connector and only use it if no other solution is available.

When pulling in the interconnection cables, a hole of at least Ø 13 mm is required. If this is not possible, the cables can be disconnected and reconnected with the CAN connector (hole of min. Ø 10 mm required).

CAN connector Art.: 102-015302 + 102-015303

6.1.4 Addressing CAN bus components

IMPORTANT:
  • The addressing (setting of the DIP switches) of the sensors must be carried out before the connection to the CAN bus.
  • Do not assign multiple addresses.

Addressing the Sensor – Position of DIP Switches

Surface-mounted version
Sensor Type DIP Switch Setting
AKI 1 (inner) Switch 1: ON, Switch 2: OFF (Example representation)
AKI 2 (inner) Combination setting (Refer to manual diagram)
AKA 1 (outer) Combination setting (Refer to manual diagram)
AKA 2 (outer) Combination setting (Refer to manual diagram)

Note: Ensure DIP switches align with the "ON/1/2" indicators on your specific sensor hardware.

Built-in version
Sensor Type Setting
AKI 1 (inner) ON / 1 / 2 (Check device labels)
AKI 2 (inner) ON / 1 / 2 (Check device labels)
AKA 1 (outer) ON / 1 / 2 (Check device labels)
AKA 2 (outer) ON / 1 / 2 (Check device labels)

6.1.5 Changing addresses

If an incorrect position has been assigned to a sensor and the system has already been put into operation, the addressing must be changed.

Example Scenario:

  • Inner RAD 290 → correctly addressed as AKI 1
  • Outer RAD 290 → incorrectly addressed as AKI 2

Consequence: The “One-way” operation mode does not work. The addressing must be adjusted.

Procedure:

  1. Disconnect the RAD 290 outer sensor from the CAN bus.
  2. Address the RAD 290 outer sensor as AKA 1.
  3. Reconnect sensor to CAN bus.
  4. Use i-record or the FPC in the SERVICE STG / PARAMETER / CAN bus menu to deactivate the AKI 2 sensor that is no longer present.

→ The newly addressed AKA 1 sensor is automatically detected and activated.

6.1.6 Deactivating/reactivating CAN bus components

If components are disconnected from the system, they must be deactivated. If components are replaced, they must be reactivated and re-addressed. The component must then be re-learned.

Deactivation Procedure:

  1. Disconnect the defective or no longer required component from the CAN bus.
  2. Use FPC or i-record in the SERVICE STG / PARAMETER / CAN-BUS menu to select and deactivate the disconnected sensor.

6.2 Simplified Start-Up

Simplified commissioning is carried out using the BDE-D control panel and multi-function button on the control device.

IMPORTANT:
  • Simplified commissioning is only possible with software version 2.10 or higher.
  • The Learning system function is not supported by software version 2.30.
  • For Primary / Secondary systems, comply with Section Primary / secondary application [} 57].
CAUTION: Unexpected opening or closing of the door

Crushing, bruises or material damage caused by the door leaves.

  1. Turn off the safety devices during the teach-in run.
  2. Make sure that there are no persons or objects in the danger area before starting the teach-in run.
  3. In the event of uncontrolled movement of the door, immediately disconnect the supply voltage or actuate the main switch.

Learning parameters and sensors

After installing the BDE-D, the language selection appears on the screen.

  • +/- Keys: Scroll up in the menu with the “Automatic” key, scroll down with the “Locked” key.

6.3 Checking control panel and actuating elements

Key function Behaviors Check
Continuously open
  • Door must open and remain open.
  • Door cannot be moved by hand.
Check operating behavior.
Locked
  • Door must close.
  • Pressing the key again triggers an SSK opening.
  • SSK must trigger (if present).
  • AKI and AKA must not trigger.
Check operating behavior
Check locking, if present (status message in the event of malfunctions, see Section Status and error messages BDE-D).
One-way
  • AKI and SSK must trigger.
  • AKA must not trigger when the door is closed.
-
Automatic operation
  • Open door (e.g. with AKI)
  • Actuate a safety device during closing. Door must open again.
If other safety devices are present, carry out the same check.

6.4 Checking the auto-reverse mechanism

  1. Obstruct the door during closing.
    The door must reverse. At the next closing, the door moves at creep speed over the blockage location.
  2. Obstruct the door during opening.
    The door stops and closes again. At the next opening, the door moves at creep speed over the blockage location.
