Description

The Motor Controller Single (MCS) is not just the next generation but the industry game changer. We wanted to create a controller that is simple to use and does just about any feature required in the gate and door industry. The MCS is not just the next generation but the “Next Transformation” in the gate and door industry creating an Eclipse over previously developed motor controllers.

This new intelligent motor controller is the best match for your automatic gate or door motors.

The MCS’s Eclipse

®

Operating System (EOS) is a user friendly menu driven system that uses the 1-touch button to control, setup and run automatic gates, doors and barriers. It uses a large 4-line LCD screen showing live reading of the motor performance and status of all inputs and outputs.

The intelligent controller was built from the ground up, based on customer feedback and using todays technology. With its rich functions, consumer friendly price and with the focus during development being ease of use and setup makes this controller the ultimate board to control your motors.

Elsema’s easy options to add remote controls or any type of photoelectric beams makes for a very user friendly approach, while avoiding the lockdown approach to accessories.

The control cards are available with an IP66 rated plastic enclosure for outdoor installations or the card only.

14.1 Battery Type

The MCS can be used with 2 types of backup batteries, Lead Acid & Lithium-ion.

Default setting is

Lead Acid. Never connect a lithium battery when lead acid mode is selected. Always select the correct battery type.

Only use Lithium-ion batteries supplied by Elsema.

14.2 Set the Supply Voltage

This allows you to manually set the control card to 12 or 24 Volt supply. The control card will automatically set the correct supply voltage during setup. To use the control card in a solar application you must set the correct voltage in the Tools. This will disable the automatic voltage sensing which could causes problems in solar applications.

14.3 Resets Controller

Reset all settings to factory default. Also removes password.

14.4 Test Inputs

This allows you to test all the external devices connected to the controllers inputs. UPPERCASE means input is activated and lowercase means input is deactivated.

14.5 Travel Timer for Slip Clutch Motors

This allows you to use the controller with travel time. Used for Slip clutch or Hydraulic Motors

14.8 Slow Speed Ramp Down Time

This allows you to change the time it takes the gate/door to change its speed from fast to slow.

Accessories

Battery Charger

The control card has a built in charger for backup batteries. Simply connect the batteries to the battery terminal and the charger will automatically charge the batteries. This allows you to use your gates or doors when the mains power has failed.

The control card’s built-in charger is not suitable for solar applications.

*Select correct battery type and size

Solar Applications

Solar applications use Elsema solar charger,

CMP12 to charge the batteries and SP20 or

SP40 solar panels. Solar gate controller kits are available.

WARNING

To use the control card in a solar application you must set the correct voltage input in the Tools

Menu (14.2). This will disable the automatic voltage sensing which could causes problems in solar applications.

Backup Batteries

Elsema has backup batteries perfectly matched to the control card. Three sizes are available:

Lab12-12, 12 Volt 12 AH Rechargeable, ideal for solar and industrial gates and doors.

Lab12-7.0, 12 Volt 7.0 AH Rechargeable, ideal for solar and industrial gates and doors

Lab12-2.6, 12 Volt 2.6 AH Rechargeable, ideal for domestic gates and doors

Programming Instructions

Coding the PentaFOB

®

remotes and receivers can be done in 2 different ways.

1. Using the Receiver

2. Using another Remote Control

Coding using the Receiver

1. Press and hold the program button on the receiver

2. Press the remote button for 2 seconds, receiver LED will flash and then turn Green

3. Release the button on the receiver and the remote

4. Press remote control button to test the receiver output

Coding using another Remote Control (you should be near the receiver for this procedure)

1. Open the case of a remote control that is already programmed and press and release the

program button on the back of the board (The receiver enters learning mode)

2. Press the button of the remote in step 1 which activates the receiver

3. Press the button on the new remote which needs to be programmed for 2 seconds

4. Press the program button again of the remote in step 1(The receiver exits learning mode)

5. Press the new remote control button to test the receiver output

Deleting Receivers Memory

Short the Code Reset pins on the receiver for 10 seconds. This will delete all the remotes from the receiver’s memory.

PentaFOB

®

Programmer

This programmer allows you to add and delete certain remotes from the receiver memory. This is used when a remote control is lost or a tenant moves from the premises and the owner wants to prevent un-authorised access.

PentaFOB

Backup Chips

This chip is used to backup or restore the contents of a receiver. When there are 100’s of remotes programmed to a receiver the installer normally backups the receiver memory in case the receiver is damaged.
