6.5 Configurations

6.5.1 Description of parameters

Legend:
W = Factory parameter: base operator (FP)

DRIVING CYCLE

→ opening speed W=36

Speed when opening the door.

  • 0 = lowest speed
  • 40 = highest speed

– The maximum speed depends on the opening angle and acceleration.
– DIN: >1.5 s <4 s

→ Acceleration W=36

Starting acceleration when opening and closing the door.

  • 0 = slow acceleration
  • 40 = fast acceleration
→ Creep speed W=0

Previous braking when closing extends the distance traveled in the area of the last 20°.

  • 0 = no creep
  • 1 = the last 2.5% of the travel path creep
  • 40 = 100%, i.e. creep along the entire travel path
→ Closing force W=0

Increase of motorized power during closing.

– DIN: 0
– If the value is greater than 0, a traveling safety sensor must be installed!

TIME DELAY OPEN

→ time delay open W=2

Determines how long the door remains open after it has been opened by a trigger signal.

  • 0..20 = 0 to 20 seconds, increment 1 s
  • 21..40 = 22 to 60 seconds, increment 2 s

– The time delay open starts when all trigger and safety signals for closing stop.

→ SSK time delay open W=5

Determines the minimum time the door remains open after it has been opened by a trigger signal of the type SSK.

  • 0..20 = 0 to 20 seconds, increment 1 s
  • 21..40 = 22 to 60 seconds, increment 2 s

– The hold open time starts when all trigger and safety signals for closing stop.

NOTICE: The time delay open can be reduced if sensors are used that hold the door open, e.g. hold time.

OPERATOR

→ opening angle W=35

The opening angle is determined during the teach-in run and corresponds to the value 40.

  • 0 = minimum opening angle
  • 40 = maximum opening angle

– DIN: min. 95°

→ Collision CLOSED W=20

Threshold for collision detection when the door is closing.

  • 0 = fine
  • 40 = coarse

– The kinetic energy of the moving door is partly absorbed by the obstacle. Depending on the nature of the door, it takes a certain amount of time before the controller can determine the increased force required and re-open the door.

→ Collision OPEN W=20

Threshold for collision detection when the door is opening.

  • 0 = fine
  • 40 = coarse

– The kinetic energy of the door is partly absorbed by the obstacle. Depending on its configuration, it takes a certain amount of time for the controller to determine the increased force required and stop the door.

→ Brake

The parameter determines at which stop positions and in which operation modes the motor brake is to be actuated.

  • Without (X): Never brake.
  • Closed position: Activate the brake in all operation modes with the door closed.
  • Open position: When the door has reached the intended opening angle, activate the brake in all operation modes.
  • Closed/Open position: Activate the brake in all operation modes, with the door closed and open.
→ Arm

Determining the arm used. In the case of Primary/Secondary systems, the arm must be configured separately for each operator.

  • Normal: Standard arm for pushing opening.
  • Sliding pulling (X): Sliding arm for pulling opening.
  • Sliding pushing: Sliding arm for pushing opening. (not for inverse)
  • Inheader: Only for USA.
→ Inverse

Opening the door with spring force in the event of a power failure.

  • Inactive (X): Function as base operator or configured door type.
  • Active: Do not activate.
NOTICE: The Inverse application is only intended for the DFA IN operator type. If the function is activated for another operator type, the door will try to open continuously in the Automatic, One-way or Locked operating modes.
→ Spring type

Spring value is read in during spring learning (MF 6th light pulse).

  • EN 4: Value of 35-41
  • EN 5: Value of 42-59
  • EN 6: Value 60-89

The display shows "Unknown" if the value cannot be determined or is out of the range. The spring is pre-loaded to door closer size EN 4 ex works.

→ Mech. stop

This function can be configured if the option MS Mech. end stop (102-127808234) or a door stop is installed.

  • Inactive (X): Function turned off.
  • Active: The door is held more firmly in the open position. Recommended for wind load or pressure fluctuations.
→ Momentum

Programmed for U.S. applications.

  • Inactive (X): Function turned off.
  • Active: Brief increase in motor power when starting to move in the opening direction.

DOOR SYSTEM

→ Fire system

Specific adaptation to the requirements of EN standards for fire protection systems.

  • Inactive (X): Function turned off.
  • Active: Fulfillment of the requirements of the EN standards for fire protection systems. The door starts moving with less force.
→ Controller

This setting is made automatically during operation. With the FPC 902 or i-record, a controller type can be imposed on the operator for simulation purposes or for the division of a primary/secondary system.

  • Individual controller (X): Single door, jumper J14 is in position M1
  • Primary controller: Primary for a primary/secondary system, jumper J14 is in position M1
  • Secondary controller: Secondary for a primary/secondary system, jumper J14 is in position S1
  • Primary interlock: Primary for airlock controller, jumper J14 is in position M2
  • Secondary airlock: Secondary for airlock controller, jumper J14 is in position S2
→ Airlock (two single-leaf swing doors or airlock with FEM 1)

As of software version 1.41, the operator enables the operation of two single-leaf swing doors in airlock function with only one BDE-D / BDI. One door can only be opened with AKI and SSK when the other door is closed. An “OPEN” command is stored at the closed door.

  • Inactive: No interlock function
  • All operation modes: The interlock function is only active in the Automatic, One-way and Locked operation modes.
  • Only One-way / Locked (X): The interlock function is only fully active in the One-way and Locked operation modes. In the Automatic operation mode, both doors always open when triggered.
→ Door type

The door type is used to adapt the behavior of the controller software to special application cases. Each door type has preset default parameters.

NOTICE: After changing the door type, the system must be reconfigured and the running parameters must be relearned.
Common Door Type Settings:
Door Type Description
Basic operator (X) Default setting. Suitable for applications in Europe.
USA Setting for Full Power applications to meet U.S. normative requirements.
USA Low Energy Setting for applications in the U.S. Meets U.S. requirements only in combination with DFA LE US operator type.
EU Low Energy Setting for Low Energy applications to meet European requirements.
UK Setting for Full Power applications to meet UK normative requirements.
Nordics high/low Settings for applications in Scandinavian countries.

PRIMARY/SECONDARY 2 LEAVES

→ Function AKA

This configures the input AKA for primary / secondary systems.

  • Primary + Secondary (X): AKA acts on both operators.
  • Primary only: Input AKA only acts on the primary operator, AKI and SSK act on both operators.
→ Overlap

W=5. Only one door leaf moves at a time in the set overlap area.

  • 0 = no overlap (blunt door rebate)
  • 5 = low overlap (single door rebate)
  • 40 = very large overlap (multiple door rebate)

MANUAL OPERATION

→ During closing

The parameter defines how the door should behave in manual operation.

  • Inactive (X): The door closes at the programmed closing speed.
  • Active: The door only closes with spring force.
→ Assisted locking

Motorized assistance in manual operation within the last 10° of the door closing.

  • Inactive (X): Programmed closing speed.
  • Constant: Consistent closing force within the last 10°.
  • Incremental: Increasing closing force within the last 10° when the closing is impeded.
  • End stop: Rapidly increasing closing force within the last 2° of the door closing.
→ Active sensors
  • Inactive (X): No sensor is active.
  • SIS inactive: All sensors except SIS are active.
  • SIS active: All sensors including SIS are active.
  • SIS active AUTO: SIS is only effective during closing if the door has been opened automatically.
  • SIS without: In manual operation, only the SIS signal is evaluated. Inputs AKI, AKA and SSK are not taken into account.
NOTICE: For the proper functioning of "Manual operation with active sensors", the BDE-D or the toggle must be set to Manual in addition to the corresponding parameter adjustment! Do not activate manual operation with assisted closure!

CONTROL PANEL

→ BDE-D

Setting for the control panel with display. All parameters for the BDE-D are stored in the STG.

Available languages: DEUTSCH, FRANCAIS, ENGLISH, ENGLISH US, ITALIANO, ESPANOL, NEDERLANDS, DANISH, SLOVENSCINA, POLSKI, MAGYAR, CZECH and TÜRKCE.

→ Keyboard
  • Normal (X): Standard layout
  • OFF mode: Layout for the U.S.. Instead of the Locked operation mode, the OFF operation mode is activated with the Locked key.

LOCKING

→ Locking function
  • Normally Locked (X): Locked only in Locked operation mode.
  • One-way Locked: Locked only in the One-way operation mode.
  • Always Locked: Locked in the Locked, One-way and Automatic operating modes.
NOTICE: If no BDE-D is connected and the operator triggers an electric strike, "Always locked" must be parameterized.
→ Locking device type
  • Standard (X): For standard electric strikes (e.g., effeff).
  • Bolts: Suitable for motorized lock.
  • Magnet: Same as bolt function, but without shutting.
  • Pulse: The operator briefly shuts so that the lock can be unlocked.

INPUT / OUTPUT → STG

→ AUX1_IN

Configurable input signals on STG.

  • Inactive (X)
  • BEA Bodyguard: Function only for U.S. door types.
  • CLOSED key: If the hold open time is set for a door for a very long time, the door can be closed prematurely via a button.
→ AUX1_OUT

Configurable output signal on STG (Terminal 9).

  • Inactive (X)
  • Test sensors: Output connected to test input of Class 2 safety sensors.
  • Locked: Output signal indicates whether the door is locked (0V = not locked, 24V = closed and locked).
  • Closed: Output signal indicates if the door is closed.
  • Gong: Visually and hearing-impaired signaling.

6.6 Interlock mode

6.6.1 Interlock with two single doors

As of software version 1.41, it is possible to operate two single-leaf swing doors in interlock function. Only one BDE-D / BDI is required for this. The connection takes place with a CAN insulator.

One door can only be opened with AKI and SSK when the other door is closed. An 'OPEN' command is stored on the closed door.

Priority: If in interlock operation, AKI or SSK is activated at the same time for primary and secondary, the primary opens first.

6.6.6 Wire interlock controller

NOTICE: The basic wiring of the interlock controller is always necessary. Additional functions require additional wiring.

6.6.7 Deactivation of the interlock mode

The interlock operation is switched off with the “Interlock OFF” switch (contact closed). This allows the doors to be opened at the same time.

6.7 Fire doors

6.7.1 Fire safety operator type

To distinguish between standard operators and fire door operators, the type designation is supplemented with an F for “Fire” on the nameplate. In addition, the lettering FIRE SAFETY is on the gearbox.

Only these operators may be used on fire doors.

6.7.3 Setting the closing time

WARNING: Incorrect closing time
There is a risk of personal injury or property damage due to an incorrect closing time.
  • The closing time must be 4-10 seconds when the door is open between 0° - 90°.
  • Set the closing time with jumper J5 according to the table below.
Type of arm EN 4 EN 5 EN 6
Standard arm 2 + 3 2 + 3 2 + 3
Sliding arm pulling 2 + 3 2 + 3 1 + 2
Sliding arm pushing 1 + 2 1 + 2 1 + 2

Note: Position of jumper J5 on MOT PCB

6.9 Adjusting the spring tension

WARNING: Falsely set closing force
If the closing force is set falsely, there is a risk of personal injury or material damage due to a lack of locking in fire safety systems. Excessively adjusted closing force can lead to crushing injuries.

Depending on the door leaf width, the spring force must be in the range from EN 4 to EN 6. The operator is set to EN 4 by default.
