Are you ready for the Eclipse? The MC's Eclipse operating system 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 MC controller 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 MC 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 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, backup batteries with charger or the card only. The MC is also suitable for solar gates with its very low standby current.

Before Setup:
The MC control card can be installed in a variety of installtion setup. Below are 3 common setup. It is very important to select the correct setup type during i-Learn. 1. No limit switches. In this setup, the card relies on the current draw of the motor to determine the fully open and fully closed positions. You need to adjust your margins accordingly to get the gate to fully open and closed. Setting margins too high can cause the motor to stall in the open or closed postion. (See troubleshooting guide). 2. Limit switches connected to the Control card. The limit switches can be Normally Closed (NC) or Normally Open (NO). You need to select the correct type during i-Learn. In this setup the limit switches are wired directly to the control card. 2. Limit switches in series with the motor. The limit switches are connected in series with the motor. The limit switches will disconnect power to the motor when activated.
Setup i-Learning Steps:
1. Look at the LCD and follow the instructions displayed. 2. The i-Learning setup can always be interrupted with the stop button or by pressing the Master
Control knob. 3. Enter Menu 13 to start i-Learning or new control cards will automatically prompt you to do the
i-Learning. 4. The control card will open and close the gates or doors several times to learn the load and travel
distances. This is the auto profiling using latest intelligent technology. 5. Buzzer will indicate learning was successful. If there was no buzzer check all electrical wiring
including the power supply then go back to step 1. 6. If you hear the buzzer after the i-Learn, the gate or door is ready for use.

7.1 Remote Control Open Only
By default the remote control allows the user to open and close the gate. In public access areas user should only be able to open the gate and not worry about closing it. Usually the Auto Close is used to close the gate. This mode disables closing for the remote controls.

7.2 Holiday Mode This feature disables all the remote controls.

7.3 Energy Saving Mode
This puts the control card to very low standby current that reduces your electricity bill while still maintaining normal functions and operations.

7.4 Automatic Stop & Open on Closing
By default when the gate is closing and a push button or remote control is activated it will automatically stop and open the gate. When this feature is disabled, the gate will only stop on an activation of the push button or remote control. Automatic opening will be disabled.

7.5 Receiver Channel 2 Options
The receivers 2nd channel can be programmed to control a courtesy light, pedestrian access or can be used for Close only.

Troubleshooting Guide
During i-Learn, the gate will open and close 3 times. First cycle is in slow speed. The second cycle is in fast speed. The third cycle will be in fast speed but the gate will slow down before reaching the end.

Error during i-Learn
i-Learn is stuck at 14% i-Learn is stuck at 28%
Gates do not fully open or fully close in the 1st i-Learn cycle

Remedy
Decrease M1 and M2 Slow Speed Obstruction Margin (Menu 9.3 & 10.3) Decrease M1 and M2 Open Obstruction Margin (Menu 9.1 & 10.1)
Increase M1 and M2 Slow Speed Obstruction Margin (Menu 9.3 & 10.3)

Gates do not fully open or fully close in the 2nd i-Learn cycle

Increase M1 and M2 Open or Close Obstruction Margin (Menu 9.1, 9.2 & 10.1, 10.2)

Limit switch failed to register and the gate is not in the fully open or closed
position.

For 1st cycle. Increase M1 and M2 Slow Speed Obstruction Margin (Menu 9.3 & 10.3). For 2nd & 3rd cycle. Increase M1 and M2 Open or Close Obstruction Margin (Menu 9.1,
9.2 & 10.1, 10.2)

Limit switch failed to register and the gate is in the fully open or closed
position.

Limit switch position is not correct. The gate has reached the physical stopper or it's maximum travel before the limit switch is activated.

Error during Operation

Remedy

Gate does not fully open or fully close but the LCD says "Gate Opened" or
"Gate Closed".

Increase M1 and M2 Slow Speed Obstruction Margin (Menu 9.3 & 10.3) depending on which motor did not fully open or close.

LCD says "Obstruction detected" when there is no obstruction.

Increase M1 and M2 Open or Close Obstruction Margin (Menu 9.1, 9.2 & 10.1, 10.2)

Gate does not respond to remotes or any local trigger.

Check the LCD for Input status (see previous page). If any input is activated and held active, the card will not respond to any other command.
