SAFETY DISCLAIMER IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BELOW WARNING: Failure to provide adequate structural strengthening, prior to installation can result in serious personal injury or damage to the equipment. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure the structure to which the component is affixed can support four times the weight of the component and any additional apparatus mounted to the component. WARNING: Do not exceed the weight capacity for this product as listed below. This can result in serious personal injury or damage to the equipment. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that the total combined weight of all attached components does not exceed that of the maximum figure stated. WARNING: Risk of death or serious injury may occur when children climb on audio and/or video equipment or furniture. A remote control or toys placed on the furnishing may encourage a child to climb on the furnishing and as a result the furnishing may tip over on to the child. WARNING: Risk of death or serious injury may occur. Relocating audio and/or video equipment to furniture not specifically designed to support audio and/or video equipment may result in death or serious injury due to the furnishing collapsing or over turning onto a child or adult. WARNING – RISK OF INJURY! Only for use with equipment weighing 55LBS (25KG) OR LESS. Use with heavier projectors/equipment may lead to instability causing tip over or failure resulting in death or serious injury. Suitable for Residential and Commercial Use. ADDITIONAL WARNINGS: 1. Keep all documentation/instructions after fitting. 2. Read all technical instructions fully before installation and use. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure that all documentation is passed on to the end user and read fully before operation. 3.

INITIAL TESTING Before installing the PLH mechanism: • Remove all red cable ties. • Check there is no damage to any part of the PLH mechanism, control board, or wiring. • Check all internal and external mechanism wiring is secure. WARNING: THE PLH MECHANISM DOES NOT HAVE AN ANTI-JAM CAPABILITY. THE MOTOR DRIVE SYSTEM WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE UNTIL A LIMIT SWITCH IS CONTACTED. KEEP HANDS AND ANY OBJECTS CLEAR OF THE MECHANISM DURING OPERATION TO REDUCE RISK OF DAMAGE OR INJURY. Familiarise yourself with the mechanism. Pressing ‘OUT’ on the IR remote will open the flap panel, raise the lifting beam and set the hinge angle to the maximum. Pressing ‘IN’ will set the hinge angle to 0°, lower the lifting beam and close the flap panel. Pressing ‘HOME’ will take the mechanism to an up position with no hinge angle. 5

GENERAL CONTROL This mechanism has multiple standard control methods, each of which requires a different input method to the control box. For ease, the input sockets on the control board are labelled below. (Control box size and style may vary to image shown) CONTROL BOX INPUTS OPERATION DETAILS Mains Voltage Input Mains Voltage Input RS232 Contact Closure IR Input Jack RS232 (RJ11/RJ25) Contact Closure (RJ45) Input Confirmation LED IR LED DC1 Low voltage power Emergency Stop IR Input Jack (3.5mm) output for motor drive. LED’s to show operation of limit switches and positional counters MECHANISM EMERGENCY STOP CONNECTOR This mechanism features an Emergency Stop Connector, which MUST be plugged into the control box in the connector labelled above for the mechanism to operate. If this connector is not plugged in, the Input Confirmation LED will be permanently lit. As per the red plastic tag attached to the Emergency Stop Connector (and shown below), the small loop of wire in this connector is designed to be replaced by a third party safety mechanism. REPLACING MECHANISM BATTERIES The standard Future Automation Infrared (IR) remote control requires x2 AAA batteries to operate. These are provided with the mechanism in the Accessories Pack. These batteries can be replaced as per the image below. 16

INFRARED (IR) This mechanism can be controlled via the supplied 14 button Infrared (IR) Remote Control, paired with the supplied Infrared (IR) lead and sensor. The mechanism's functions can be controlled by plugging the Infrared (IR) lead and sensor into the 3.5mm IR Input Jack shown on the General Mechanism Control page. Confirmation of Infrared (IR) input will be shown by a single flash of the large green LED located on the end of the control box. As Infrared (IR) control works via line of site, the Infrared (IR) sensor must be directly viewable from the location the remote control is being used from. Infrared (IR) Remote Control Button Layout NOTE: Commands involving multiple keys requires each successive key to be pressed within 2 seconds of each other.
