door fitting BY 4720).
• The installation or use of other parts can jeopardise the operational safety and hence they are prohibited.
• In accordance with EN 12453, the drive may not be used on doors that are located in public places without additional
safety mechanisms.

2.0 INSTALLING THE DRIVE

IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE INSTALLATION. PLEASE FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS IN THE SE-
QUENCESPECIFIED - INCORRECT OR IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN CAUSE FATAL INJURIES!

Before proceeding with the installation, please ensure that the mains plug has been removed. Safeguard the equip-
ment against the mains plug being reinserted.

Prior to installation, ensure that the garage door is in proper and working condition.

2.1 Preparatory work

You should do some preparatory work so that the installation can be completed expeditiously:

• Read the installation manual completely before commencing work, since it contains important information for installation.
• Learn about the roof thickness and, if applicable, any cables / pipes that have been laid (hazard of drilling through them!).
• Check the scope of supply. Keep any accessories that may be required or desired ready at hand.
• Keep all tools (FIG. 3) as well as suitable material, if required, at hand to cover the drive when drilling bore holes (dust ha-
zard) and any aids, if necessary, to support the drive (hazard of the drive falling down).
DOCOMAT 8/17 04-10
 • Put all those mechanical locks and devices of the garage door, which are not required after installing the drive, out of
operation and remove them.
• Please note that the drive is installed with the garage door closed: all tools and tackles required must be kept inside the
garage if it does not have any other access route.

2.2 Pre-assembly of the drive

FIG. 6: Pre-assemble the rails

• Depending on the model of the equipment, the rails must first be pre-assembled. First plug the rails into one another with
the help of the cap rails. The rails must be pushed into one another up to the stop points.

FIG. 7: Put the chain / toothed belt in place

• Pull the chain / toothed belt already in the rail in the direction of the open end of the rail. When doing so, please ensure
that the attachment (a) is located on the correct side of the rail.

FIG. 8: Mount the head retainer (toothed belt version)

• Pull the head retainer (1) out of the rail (2). Remove the transportation lock (3). Place the drive wheel (4) into the ball-
bearing and push the head retainer back into the rail.

FIG. 9: Mount the head retainer (chain version)

• Pull the head retainer (1) out of the rail. Attach the sprocket (4) and the transportation lock (3) and push the head retainer
back into the rail.

FIG. 10: Put the rubber liner in place (only chain version)
• To prevent vibrations at the points marked with "c", affix the self-adhesive rubber liner as close as possible to the end of the
rail in the front (a) and at the rear (b).

FIG. 11: Mount the clamp

• Pull the chain / toothed belt already in the rail in the direction of the open end of the rail. When doing so, please ensure
that the attachment (a) is located on the correct side of the rail.
• Then fix the deflection roller assembly to the clamp as shown. While doing so, please ensure that the square-shaped end
of the mushroom head bolt is correctly seated in the deflection roller assembly holder.

FIG. 12: Tighten the drive medium

• The chain or the toothed belt must then be pre-tensioned to such an extent that the chain or the toothed belt does not
drop down any longer.

FIG. 13: Test the carriage

• Finally, check whether the carriage can be moved easily in the rail. To do this, operate the emergency unlocking lever on
the carriage and move it in the rail simultaneously.
• Make sure to check that the carriage is latched onto the attachment after this test. For this purpose, move the carriage
over the attachment, while the emergency unlocking lever is not in operation, so that the carriage latches automatically.

FIG. 14: Mount the door fitting

• Different installation parts can be used for those versions of the appliance with a straight push rod (a): the straight exten-
sion can be used for overhead tilting doors (d) and the sectional door bracket (c) can be used for sectional doors. The
standard version of the equipment uses a curved push rod (a) and no other installation parts are supplied or used.
• Following this, the door fitting (b) is mounted on the push rod (a).

2.3 Installing the drive

FIG. 15: Mark the centre of the door

• Measure the width of your door and mark the centre of the door at the lintel, the upper edge of the door and on the
garage roof (behind the opened door and near the motor head).

FIG. 16/17: Obtaining the required height

• The rail must be mounted in such a way that there is about 10-20 mm clearance between the highest point of door mo-
vement (a) (the highest point that the top edge of the door can reach during its movement) and the bottom edge of the
rail (b). In the process, however, please ensure that the rail is always mounted horizontally.
• The angle α may not exceed 30°, otherwise proper power transfer cannot be guaranteed.
• The distance between the lower edge of the rail and the upper edge of the garage door must be between 5 and 7 cm
when the door is closed.
DOCOMAT 9/17 04-10
 FIG. 18/19: Mounting the lintel fixture
• Place the lintel fixture supplied along with the equipment based on the dimensions obtained (centre of the door, instal-
lation height) on the lintel (depending on the site conditions, the fixing screws supplied may have to replaced with other
suitable ones). Please note: Cover the drive when doing any drilling work!

FIG. 20: Fix the rail on the lintel

• Finally, mount the rail on the lintel fixture

FIG. 21: Position the slotted brackets

• In the next step, the slotted brackets are fixed to the rail. The required dimensions are derived from the installation height
obtained earlier (ensure horizontal installation of the rails!).

FIG. 22: Fixing the drive to the roof

• Following this, swing the rail up to the garage roof. Please ensure that the rail is aligned in the centre of the door marked
previously. Prevent the rail from falling down. Mark the bore holes.
• Fix the rail to the garage roof using suitable dowels, screws and flat washers.

FIG. 23/24: Mount the drive head to the rail

• Fix the drive head with the motor axis on the pinion located in the rail.
• Finally, tighten it using the screws supplied.

FIG. 21-24: Alternatively, the roof fixture can also be carried out using the slotted brackets directly on the drive head; see
the overview drawing.

FIG. 25: Fixing the garage door holder

• First, manually unlock the carriage and push it in the direction of the lintel.
• Then fix the door holder to the door using at least 4 screws.

FIG. 26/27: Install the emergency unlocking mechanism

• Installation of the external unlocking mechanism is absolutely necessary for garages that do not have a second access
route, so as to be able to open the garage from outside in case of an emergency. If no internal twist grip is available, the
emergency unlocking mechanism must be installed using a key lock (Item no. B 146.02, accessories). Please check to see
if the emergency unlocking mechanism is working (see 2.5).

FIG. 28: Put the light cover in place

• After all of the work has been completed, please ensure that the light cover is put back in place and fastened with the
screw provided.
2.4 Affix warning labels

The warning label, which draws attention to the risk of jamming and serves as a reminder for regular checking of
the hindrance detection system, must be permanently affixed at a clearly visible location or in the vicinity of the
50mm

operating elements that have been installed permanently.

The warning label that contains notes regarding the operation of the emergency unlocking mechanism must be
fixed permanently near it and must be clearly and easily visible.

The warning label that advises children to stay away from the area of the open door must be fixed permanently
near the pivoting range and it must be clearly and easily visible.

2.5 Manual functional test / Emergency unlocking

After completing the installation, please ensure that the functioning of the garage door has not been affected by installing
the drive.

• Disconnect the mains plug. Unlock the garage door drive using the emergency unlocking mechanism. Please note that
there can be uncontrolled movements, in the event of a broken spring / cable or if the door is not properly balanced!
• Open and close the door manually a number of times (when doing so, every time that the carriage (FIG. 13) is pulled
over the attachment (FIG. 7, a), the emergency unlocking mechanism must be pulled) and ensure that the garage door
moves easily in the process. While doing so, the carriage of the drive may not collide with the deflection roller at the front
or the drive head at the rear under any circumstances. The garage door may not collide with the drive.
• Check the cord tension of the emergency unlocking mechanism. In the closed condition, the cord must be slightly taut so
that operating the door twist grip is enough to operate the emergency unlocking lever at the carriage of the drive and to
unlock the carriage. The cord may not slacken while the door is in motion.
• Move the garage door until the attachment latches again. It should no longer be possible to move the garage manu-
ally.

DOCOMAT 10/17 04-10

 3. COMMISSIONING

If the springs are weak or broken, or the weight of the door is not balanced properly, operating the drive can lead
to uncontrolled movements of the door.

During commissioning, you must remain inside the garage. This means that you can open the door using the manual
unlocking mechanism in the event of a fault.

3.1 Programming

Loosen the screw on the light cover. Remove the light cover from the housing (FIG. 28).
The attachment (FIG. 7, a) must be latched and locked in the carriage (FIG. 13).

3.2 Programming path and force ("Learning movement")

During the learning movement, no evaluation of the light barrier and hindrance detection system or the power-
operated shutdown is to be carried out! Nobody may remain in the hazard zone of the garage door during com-
missioning and when adjustments are being made!

The adjustment procedure can be interrupted at any

time by removing the mains plug. After reinserting the LED red LED green
mains plug and performing a self-test, the adjustment
procedure will be restarted. During this procedure, the
controller "learns" the end positions of the garage door
as well as the force required to open and close the gara-
ge door. To do this, carry out the following steps:

A) For initial learning of the drive:

• Insert the mains plug. Wait for about 10 sec. until the controller has completed executing the self-test (=green LED START
flashes at 0.5 Hz, and finally all LED's light up for 1 sec.). The controller will then automatically switch to the learning mode:
LED MENUE (red) and LED START (green) flash simultaneously at 0.5 Hz.
• Next, begin with step 1 of programming.
B) For reprogramming a drive that has already undergone the learn procedure previously:
• Insert the mains plug. Wait for about 10 sec. until the controller has completed executing the self-test (=green LED START
flashes at 0.5 Hz, and finally all LED's light up for 1 sec.).
• Press the MENUE button and hold for at least 3 sec. After a short time delay, press the START button and also hold for 3
sec. Release both the buttons as soon as the MENUE LED (red) and the START LED (green) simultaneously switch from slow
flashing (5 Hz) to flashing at high speed (0.5 Hz).
• Next, begin with step 1 of programming.

Step 1: Setting the "Door Open" position

• Press the START button (hold it) and move the door drive in the direction of the end position for "Door Open". The MENUE
LED (red) lights up. Release the button about 10 cm before the door reaches the end position.
• Now bring the door to the desired end position by pressing the START button briefly a number of times. The MENUE LED
(red) continues to remain lit. If the desired end position has been crossed, it can be reset by pressing the LEARN button.
• Press the MENUE button. The position "Door Open" is saved and the START LED (green) lights up. Now, continue with step
2. If the START LED (green) does not light up, remove the mains plug and repeat the entire programming procedure from
the beginning (A).

Step 2: Setting the "Door Closed" position

• Press the START button (hold it) and move the door drive in the direction of the end position for "Door Open". The MENUE
LED (red) lights up. Release the button about 10 cm before the door reaches the end position.
• Now bring the door to the desired end position by pressing the START button briefly a number of times. The MENUE LED
(red) continues to remain lit. If the desired end position has been crossed, it can be reset by pressing the LEARN button.
• Now bring the door to the desired end position by pressing the START button briefly a number of times. The MENUE LED
(red) continues to remain lit. If the desired end position has been crossed, it can be reset by pressing the LEARN button.

Step 3: Adjusting the force required (this is only possible after the successful completion of steps 1 and 2)
• Press the START button briefly. The MENUE LED (red) and the START LED (green) will start flashing (0.5 Hz), and, after a short
time delay, the garage door will open completely once and close completely once. While this is happening, the controller
saves the value of the force required for the open and close operations. At the end, the LED's go off.
• Once the programming procedure ends, the garage door is ready for operation. The START LED (green) flashes conti-
nuously at 0.5 Hz. It goes off after about 3 min.

The "values learnt" will remain saved, even in the event of power failure or if the mains plug is removed. The drive that has
been adjusted carries out automatic correction of the "Door Closed" end position at regular intervals. Temperature-depen-
dent changes in the end position are compensated for in this way.

DOCOMAT 11/17 04-10

 3.3 Adjusting the shutdown force

CAUTION: Do not set the value of the shutdown force for hindrance detection too high, as this can lead to damage
to property and human injury. If the drive power is adjusted in such a manner that a force greater than 150 N is ap-
plied at the door edge or the shear points before automatic shutdown takes place, additional safeguard must be
provided by means of a light barrier or some other equivalent device.

Following any modifications to the settings for the shutdown force, please check that the drive reverses when the
door touches an object that is 50 mm high and that has been placed on the ground (see Hindrance detection, 3.4).

The factory setting is "5" (= 100%). In the case of a door that is working properly, there should be no need to change and
increase the value of the force after programming the path and force (3.2)- in any case, please check that the door works
properly when operated manually before making any changes to the settings for the value of the force!

• Keep the POWER button pressed longer than 3 sec., until one of the 4 yellow LED's next to the POWER button light up or
begin to flash; this LED indicates the value of the shutdown force that has been set (see the bar).
• Every further operation of the POWER button increases the shutdown value of the force by one step. After reaching the
maximum value of 8, the setting changes to the minimum value of 1 when pressing the button again.
• To accept the value set, press the MENUE button.
• The value set is indicated in accordance with the following bar:

LED off Step1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Step 7 Step 8
LED flashes
LED on

If no operation takes place for a period of 3 min., the original value is accepted without any change and this mode ends.
While this mode is active, the drive cannot be controlled. If no values of force have been saved (3.2) or if the drive is faulty
(5.3), the shutdown force cannot be adjusted or set.

3.4 Testing the hindrance detection system

After adjusting the drive, please check that the shutdown force for hindrance detection has been set in such a way that
the door stops and reverses when it encounters a hindrance. The hindrance detection system can be tested by placing a
piece of wood that is at least 50 mm in height on the floor in the path of movement of the door and allowing the door to
close. When encountering the hindrance, the door must stop immediately and start reversing. If this does not happen, the
value of the shutdown force must be corrected by reducing it!

If the drive is used on a door, which has perforations in the door wing >Ø 10mm or has edges or protruding parts that
can grip a human being or which can stand on the door, please ensure that the drive prevents the opening move-
ment or stops if the door encounters a mass of 20 kg at the centre of the lower edge of the door (safety shutdown to
protect against lifting human beings / other objects).

3.5 Supplementary feature of automatic closing

Enabling the automatic closing feature makes it imperative to provide additional security for the system using at
least one extra light barrier! For this purpose, please make sure to take note of and comply with the provisions of EN
12453 with respect to the usage type, hazard level and minimum level of protection! With the feature of automa-
tic closing, operation in accordance with EN 60335-2-95 is not permissible - the machine must be approved on a
case-by-case basis, based on the product standard for garage doors! The feature of automatic closing can lead to
severe damage to property and serious human injuries if not used properly!

The automatic closing feature closes the garage door automatically 60 sec. after it has switched off on reaching the "Door
open" position. Please refer to the detailed information provided in Section "5.2 Operation" for an accurate description of
the operating states and method of working. To enable the automatic closing feature, the drive that has undergone the
learning process must be in the ready mode and have fault-free operation (START LED (green) flashes at approx. 0.5 Hz).
Please proceed as follows:

• Loosen the screw on the light cover. Remove the light cover from the housing (FIG. 28).
• Keep the MENUE button pressed for at least 3 sec., until the MENUE LED (red) begins to flash at approx. 2 Hz and the START
LED goes off: Release the MENUE button.
• The MENUE LED (red) now indicates the status of the automatic closing feature: MENUE LED (red) "on" = enabled; MENUE
LED (red "off" = disabled.
• Each operation of the START button now changes the status of the automatic closing feature, which is reflected by the dis-
play of the MENUE LED (green): Set the desired status and finally quit the setup mode by pressing the MENUE button once.
• The setting is accepted and the drive switches to the ready mode (START LED (green) flashes at approx. 0.5 Hz. Replace
the light cover. The operating state is accepted after the next operation.
DOCOMAT 12/17 04-10
 3.6 Special rotation direction reversal feature

The motor's direction of rotation can be reversed for the controller's special applications: Set the status to "Step 1" of pro-
gramming (see 3.2). First press and hold the POWER button, and after a short time press and hold the MENUE button. The
START LED (green) and the MENUE LED (red) light up and extinguish after about 3 sec.. Release both the buttons: the direc-
tion of rotation reverses; the drive now runs in the opposite direction when pressing the START button. Finally, carry out the
entire learning procedure from start to finish, as described in section 3.2.

 4.0 CONNECTING ACCESSORIES

Remove the mains plug prior to performing any wiring or connection work in order to prevent damage to the con-
troller!

Always lay the control and signal lines as well as the antennas in such a way that they are separated and isolated
from power cables in order to prevent interferences.

4.1 Buttons

Only non-latching NO (normally open) contacts (not self-holding or latching contacts of a switch or similar!) may be
used! Only potential-free contacts may be connected - never connect any external power supply!

Connect the button contacts to terminals 1 and 2 of the control board (FIG. 30). If more than one element is used for this
connections, the contacts must be connected in parallel.
Use cables with a core diameter of at least 0.25 mm² for maximum length of 20 m. Operating elements that are permanently
installed must be within sighting range of the garage door. The distance between moving parts and the height above the
ground must be at least 1.8 metres. They must be mounted beyond the reach of children under all circumstances!

4.2 Light barrier

The use of a light barrier generally enhances the safety of the garage door system and can become urgently necessary
under certain circumstances (e.g. contact with public places or minimum level of protection in accordance with EN 12453).

If the light beam gets interrupted during the door closing operation, the garage door stops immediately and reverses about
10 cm in the direction of door opening (Automatic door closing: complete opening). The light barrier is inactive during the
door opening movement.

Use cables with a core diameter of at least 0.25 mm² for a maximum length of 20 m. We recommend that the light barrier
be located at a height of 40 cm above the ground and as close as possible to the door (max. 50 mm away). If more than
one pair of light barriers is used, they must be installed opposite one another and connected in series.

The power supply (24 V) of the transmitter light barrier (TX) and the receiver light barrier (RX) is connected to terminals 3 and
5. Connect the signal output of the receiver light barrier (RX) to terminal 4 and earth (terminal 5). Remove the factory-fitted
jumper between terminals 4 and 5 (FIG. 30). After completing the installation, test the operation of the light barrier by inter-
rupting the light beam using some object (e.g. a broom).

4.3 Antenna

Please use only an antenna with a suitable (=matching) frequency 1

and screened (or shielded) coaxial cable. Do not modify the antenna
under any circumstances. 2
Please use only an antenna with a suitable (=matching) frequency and scree-
ned (or shielded) coaxial cable. Do not modify the antenna under any circum-
stances.

• Remove the dipole (wire) antenna fixed to the antenna connection ANT of
the wireless receiver.
• Connect the inner conductor (1) of the rod antenna to the antenna connec-
tion ANT and the screen or shield (2) to the ┴ terminal.
• Lay the antenna outside the garage and place it at a point that is exposed
and at as high a location as possible with a line of vision to the operating
location.

Do not extend the coaxial cable provided on the antenna and do not use more than one antenna simultaneously / for the
same connection.

5.0 OPERATING THE SYSTEM

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: ATTENTION – IT IS IMPORTANT FOR SAFEGUARDING HUMAN LIVES TO COMPLY WITH
ALL INSTRUCTIONS! THESE INSTRUCTIONS MUST BE KEPT IN SAFE CUSTODY!

When operating the emergency unlocking mechanism, there can be uncontrolled movements of the garage door
if springs are weak or broken or if the door is not balanced by weight. The emergency unlocking mechanism may
only be operated when the mains plug has been removed.

DOCOMAT 14/17 04-10

 5.1 Instructions for safe operation

• Do not lean on the cord of the emergency unlocking mechanism with your body weight.
• Do not fasten any objects to the cord of the emergency unlocking mechanism or other components of the garage door
drive.
• Please ensure that the emergency unlocking mechanism or other moving parts of the system do not get caught on the
roof supporting structure or other projections of the motor vehicle or the garage door or any other objects in the garage.
• In the event of malfunctions or faults, the garage door can be opened / closed by operating the emergency unlocking
mechanism.
• Attention: The garage door can close faster if springs are weak, broken or defective and if the door weight is not balan-
ced properly.
• Only operate the garage door when you can see the entire area covered by the door. Please ensure that there are no
human beings or objects in the path of movement of the garage door. Observe the moving door and keep persons away
until the door has opened or closed completely and has stopped moving.
• Ensure that the garage door is completely open and has stopped moving before driving in and out of the garage.
• Do not keep the handheld transmitter in tight pant pockets or similar clothing. This can cause unintended operation.

Do not allow children to play with the drive. Keep the wireless handheld transmitter away from children.

Please do not operate the garage door system if any repair or service work needs to be done, since a fault in the
system or an incorrectly adjusted garage door can lead to severe injuries. Please ensure that such work is only
carried out by qualified and skilled technicians.

Do not modify the system in any way after it has been commissioned. Any modification beyond the scope of the
maintenance and repair work foreseen, or removal of parts or addition of (foreign) parts can impair the operational
safety provided by the manufacturer and lead to serious injuries.

5.2 Operation

Normal operation mode: the garage door can be opened or closed in a number of ways using the garage door drive: using
the start pulse via the handheld transmitter, the START button, indoor button / key switch or a wireless code lock (accessory).

Each operation of these operating elements triggers a new impulse ("Impulse follow-up function"):

First operation: The drive runs in one direction (opposite to that of the last movement made)
Second operation (during the movement): The drive stops
Third operation: The drive runs in the opposite direction
Fourth operation (during the movement): The drive stops
Fifth operation: same as with the first operation
Triggering the hindrance detection system while the door is closing causes it to stop and reverse (move in the opposite di-
rection) by about 10 cm.
As a rule, the integrated light gets switched on whenever the drive is operated, and it shuts off automatically after about 3
min.

Automatic closing operation enabled: In general, the countdown to the door opening time of 60 sec. begins at the end of
the door opening movement,. After 60 sec. the drive light starts flashing for 2.5 sec., and finally, the door begins to close.

If a new start impulse is triggered while the door is closing, the drive stops and moves back to the "Door open" position and
the countdown to the door opening time recommences.
If a a start impulse is triggered while in the "Door open" condition, i.e. during the countdown to the door opening time, the
countdown time is reset and recommences.
If a start impulse is triggered while the door is opening, the drive stops. The next start impulse results in the door getting closed.
If the hindrance detection function is triggered while the door is closing, the drive stops and moves back to the "Door open"
position, and the countdown to the door opening time recommences. If the hindrance detection feature is triggered for a
third time, the door remains in its last position; a new start command causes the door to close.
If any light barrier gets triggered while the door is closing, the drive stops and moves back to the "Door open" position, and
the countdown to the door opening time recommences.
If the hindrance detection is triggered while the door is opening, the drive stops and reverses a few centimetres. A new start
impulse causes it to close

In the event of power failure the drive stops in its last position, and a new start impulse causes the last movement to continue
once the power supply is restored. Any movement initiated at the time of power supply failure is not continued automati-
cally after power supply is restored.

 5.3 Fault indications

Every time that the 230 V power supply is switched on, the first thing the control electronics does is to perform a self-test (see
4.2, A/B). After commissioning the equipment, the START LED (green) indicates normal readiness for operation with slow flas-
hing at 0.5 Hz. If the drive cannot get started or if it stops, there are 2 indications that can be distinguished from one another:
Possible cause: Fault rectification:
• The light barrier has been triggered The fault mode is reset automatically
