MECHANISM QUICK-START GUIDE Some Future Automation mechanisms may ship with the control box disconnected to prevent damage during transit. In order to operate the mechanism, the control box will need to reconnected, then have mains power applied along with the desired control method. RECONNECTING THE CONTROL BOX To reconnect the mechanism control box, follow the below steps: 1. Make sure the power is disconnected from the control box. 2. Remove the retaining screw and washer from the end of the control box to allow removal of the control box lid. (Image 1 Below). 3. Slide off the control box lid to reveal the control board inside. 4. Locate the green connector on the end of the loom leading from the lift mechanism. This plug will have a small tag attached stating the correct connecting socket on the control board (e.g. “AC1”, “DC2”...) (Image 2 Below). 5. Plug the green connector into the corresponding socket on the control board. This plug is handed and will only connect correctly one way. Do NOT force the connector into the socket, this can cause serious damage to the control board and mechanism. 6. Route the wiring loom out of the end of the control box by inserting the black plastic inserts into the slots provided. (Image 3 Below). 7. Slide the control box cover back over the control board and replace the fixing screw and washer. Image 1. Image 2. Image 3. Image 4. IMPORTANT For the mechanism to operate, the green three way safety connector with the loop of wire attached, must also be plugged into the end of the control box. (Image 4 above).

ELECTRICAL RECOVERY If the Mechanism fails to OPEN from IR or control system commands, an electrical override system can be utilised in order to recover the mechanism for emergency use and repair. The Electrical Recovery system uses an override card that is supplied with the mechanism to bypass the internal control system in order to operate the main hinging tray drive. This is done by inserting the supplied card into a concealed connector in the back left corner of the mechanism and powering directly using an 18v Drill Battery or equivalent voltage DC power supply. Powering Mechanism using Electrical Recovery System Override Card will cause mechanism to open without control system and internal safety switches. DO NOT OPEN FULLY AND ENSURE AREA BELOW MECHANISM IS CLEAR. BEFORE OPERATION Electrical Recovery System Override Card (SUPPLIED) Make sure card is in correct orientation. Silver contact pads should be facing ceiling, NOT Mechanism. 27

Page 30

ELECTRICAL RECOVERY CONT. Ensure card is securely inserted into override connector. Card should click into position and be held in position by the connector. With card in place and using lead on the card to carefully power card from 18V DC drill battery or similar voltage DC power supply. DO NOT EXCEED 24V DC WHEN USING ELECTRICAL RECOVERY SYSTEM AS THIS CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO MECHANISM. If Mechanism fails to move, change polarity of power supply / drill battery and also check card is in correct orientation and firmly inserted into connector. With mechanism open, diagnostics can take place to determine cause of fault. The Electrical override system will ONLY OPEN mechanism and requires fault to be fixed in order to close using internal control system via IR Remote Control, Contact Closure or RS323 Commands. 28
