BOTTICELLI BT AV 650 Automation for Overhead and Sectional Garage Doors

General Outline

The BOTTICELLI BT AV 650 system is designed for motorizing sectional doors and protruding, fully retracting spring-operated overhead doors. The maximum height for overhead doors is 3 meters. The installation is straightforward, allowing for quick fitting without modifying the door. The irreversible gearmotor ensures the door remains locked in the closed position.

Key Features:

• Suitable for sectional and overhead doors.
• Maximum overhead door height: 3 meters.
• Easy and quick installation.
• Irreversible gearmotor for secure locking.
• ER-Ready compatibility.

Kit Composition and Equipment

The kit includes the motor unit, rail, various brackets, and a comprehensive set of fasteners (screws, bolts, wall plugs). Tools required for installation typically include wrenches, an Allen key, screwdrivers, and drills with appropriate drill bits (e.g., Ø5 for metal, Ø10 for wall). For installations at heights over 2 meters, safety equipment such as scaffolding or rolling towers is mandatory.

Installation Guidelines

Proper installation involves several key steps:

1. Rail Assembly: The rail must be correctly assembled and fixed to the ceiling or lintel, ensuring proper length and alignment based on the door dimensions (A, B, C). Various bracket types (APT S, APT) are available for different ceiling heights and configurations.
2. Motor Head Assembly: The motor head is attached to the rail. Special installations may require rotating the head.
3. Balancing the Door: Ensure the sectional door is properly balanced before automation.
4. Safety Checks: Verify that impact forces comply with EN12445 and EN12453 standards. Obstacle detection is not active during autoset; the installer must monitor the system.
5. Wiring and Connections: Connect accessories, safety devices (photocells, safety edges), and control inputs (START, PED, STOP) to the control unit according to the wiring diagram. Ensure mains voltage connections are kept separate from low-voltage safety connections.
6. Low Power Mode: The system features a low power mode to save energy, where accessory power is disconnected after 10 seconds of inactivity. This is indicated by a dot on the display.

Parameter Settings and Diagnostics

The control unit allows for various parameter adjustments (Table A) to customize operation, including:

• d1: Opening impulse block.
• d2: Configuration for safety edges (BAR/8K2).
• d3: Photocell test activation.
• d4: Power Down activation for energy saving.
• t1: Automatic closure time.
• t2: Opening torque.
• t3: Closure torque.

The system provides diagnostic codes (e.g., St rE, oPE n, cLS, ErD1, Er1H*) to indicate operational status and potential errors. Troubleshooting involves checking connections, parameter settings, and component wear.

Transmitter Programming and Cancellation

Remote controls can be programmed for opening, closing, or other functions. The manual provides instructions for programming new transmitters and cancelling existing ones, typically involving button presses on the control unit and the transmitter.
