Contact interrupted: Door will stop immediately out of the movement. Contact closed: Switches the door function into Hold-to-run Mode. (If a GfA frequency inverter drive would be in use, the function changes to very slow speed). A reset is available and made when pushing the built-in STOP-button for a minimum of three seconds.
SAFETY DEVICES Optical safety edge system The input is meant for an infrared safety beam sensor with transmitter and receiver in a rubber profile. By pressing the rubber profile, the light beam is interrupted. The F2.9 fault indication appears upon activation or a faulty safety edge system. Light curtain The light curtain detects people and obstacles without contact.
SAFETY DEVICES Function of the safety edge system With Menu item 2.1 the function of the safety edge system can be chosen. Function Reaction following the activation Active safety edge Stop De-activated safety edge No reaction, door moves until final limit close only for folding doors Active safety edge+ Stops and automatically re-adjusts the final limit with the...
SAFETY DEVICES Pass door / slack rope switch input The pass door switch Entrysense features a protective function complying with safety category 2 under EN 954-1. The electrical contact is monitored by the control panel that outputs fault F1.7 when it malfunctions. The electronic pass door switch Entrysense: Function and test The pass door switch Entrysense is fitted with two reed contacts that are switched by a permanent magnet.
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION Emergency stop Connection of an emergency stop control device as per EN 13850 or an evaluation unit for an anti-trap safety device. The F1.4 fault indication appears upon activation. Important note! Frequency inverter drive unit: The emergency stop switches the supply off. The door control can only be operated again 30 seconds after unlocking the emergency stop.
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION X6 / X16 Through / Reflective photo cell or Light curtain Photo cell X6 / X16 A photo cell is used for presence detection. It is only active in door operating mode „.3“ and „.4“, in the OPEN limit position or during the closing operation. If the photo cell is interrupted, fault indication F2.1 appears.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION X7 / X17 Ceiling pull switch / Radio control It is possible to connect a ceiling pull switch or a radio receiver. The radio receiver's switching contact must be potential free. Menu item 2.6: Several types of commands can be adjusted. With each command (impulse) the shutter operates in the following sequences.
, RWA-function activated. Light indicator for traffic control TS 981 control have a complete one-way and two-way traffic light management integrated. Two pairs of red/green light indicators may be connected on terminal X13. Supply voltage for these light indicators is selectable and could be provided from external or directly from internal terminals X1 1.8 / 1.9.

FUNCTION DESCRIPTION Menu item 6.1 Traffic light management The integrated traffic light management of TS 981 supplies two traffic modes One-Way Two-Way One-Way mode: This could be selected if the shutter width delivers enough space for two cars driving through the door. The lights indicating only when the shutter is fully OPEN.
2 seconds. These inputs affect the OPEN and CLOSE operation of the door. If safety devices would be activated the shutter stops. The TS 981 works with four several evaluating principles. Principle To be used NC contact 1k2 with out testing...
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION Overrun correction The stopping position of the door can be influenced by various factors e.g. temperature, cable extension etc. To always have the same door stopping position the overrun correction can be activated. Using Menu item 2.2 the overrun correction can be switched ON or OFF. Important! Great variations of temperature during a time when the door is not in use, could cause a position variation of about 1 cm.
AIR look SLF Air-lock management could be realised by means an easy electrical cable connection between two shutters with TS 981. The required module with cable should be connected into SLF plug-in. This module would be delivered complete within a manual.
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION Software Update For software updates TS 981 have a MMC/SD card slot available. With this function the software can be updated respectively in external places saved. For that purpose the new program can be taken from a PC with special card reader function for GfA cards, following the card could be guided into the control panel existing slot.
OPERATING STATUS DISPLAY The control TS 981 can display up to three different status conditions one after another. Each status is displayed with a letter and a number. The letter and the number are flashing alternately, thereby the control differentiates between a FAULT = F and a command = E.
