INTRODUCTION 1. Introduction The D5 SMART is a domestic and light-industrial operator designed to open and close sliding gates weighing up to 500kg. A custom-designed gearbox moulded from robust engineering polymers, coupled to a powerful 24V DC motor, provides fast and reliable automation for entrances to homes and small housing estates.
• Make sure that an earth leakage circuit breaker with a threshold of 30mA is fitted upstream of the system • Never short-circuit the battery and do not attempt to recharge the batteries with power supply units other than that supplied with the product, or manufactured by Centurion Systems (Pty) Ltd page 6 www.centsys.com...

Always check the obstruction detection system, and safety devices for correct operation • Neither Centurion Systems (Pty) Ltd, nor its subsidiaries, accepts any liability caused by improper use of the product, or for use other than that for which the automated system was intended •...
1.3. Theft Protection While care has been taken in the design of the D5 SMART to prevent unauthorised removal (theft) of the unit, an optional steel theft-deterrent cage is also available for added peace of mind.
When the WiZos are removed from their packaging, it is important to remember the following: The WiZos are ready to be used; they have just not been configured or added to a network. Configuration is what the user / installer needs to do. 31mm 181mm 275mm FIGURE 1. D5 SMART PHYSICAL DIMENSIONS 2.2.

SECTION 5 NEW SITE INSTALLATION PREPARATION 5. New Site Installation Preparation 5.1. General Considerations for the Installation Always recommend the fitment of additional safety equipment such as safety edges and safety beams, for additional protection against entrapment or other mechanical risks. Check that no pipes or electrical cables are in the way of the intended installation. Check that enough space is available for the gate operator, specifically for the release handle (See Section 7.1.2.
SECTION 5 NEW SITE INSTALLATION PREPARATION 5.2. Endstops Fit opening and closing endstops capable of stopping the gate at rated speed. Refer to the specifications at the beginning of this manual for the operating speed. Make H1>H2 to ensure gate will not jump over the endstop. Opening and closing endstops are mandatory and must be fitted to prevent death or accidental injury as the operator uses and confirms these limits during operation.
SECTION 5 NEW SITE INSTALLATION PREPARATION 5.4. Starting and Running Forces Test the starting force of the gate as per the diagram. Use a pull scale in both directions to determine the maximum amount of pull force required to set the gate in motion. Determine the running force of the gate by continuing to pull on the scale with just sufficient force to keep it running.
LUBRICATION 6. Lubrication The internal gearset of the D5 SMART is lubricated by means of an oil bath. The D5 SMART is supplied with oil in its gearbox. The D5 SMART does not require routine oil changes. However, in the event of the unit losing oil due to stripping down or mechanical damage, the correct replacement oil is Castrol Syntrax Long Life 75W-90.
When installing the D5 SMART, it is important to take note of the information found in Sections 7.1.1. and 7.1.2. when determining the position of the Foundation Plate, and the height of the D5 SMART in relation to the gate that is to be automated.

SECTION 7 OPERATOR INSTALLATION Lay the cabling conduit so that it routes the cables to the back of the Foundation Plate. Ensure that 30mm of conduit protrudes above the concrete. Using medium-strength concrete (25MPa), cast the plinth according to the dimensions as shown in Figure 21. Cabling conduit exiting at the back of the Foundation Plate...
If the existing foundation plate is in a good condition, it is not necessary to replace it with the D5 SMART Foundation Plate. However, if the existing foundation plate is corroded or needs to be replaced for whatever reason, the D5 SMART foundation plate can accommodate the existing footprint without the need to re-route cable conduits.

2-3mm gap between the Pinion and the gate's rack. Fit the Pinion Spyder onto the Pinion of the D5 SMART by aligning its teeth with the gaps between the teeth of the D5 SMART's Pinion. Ensure that the D5 SMART Gearbox is in Manual Override.
SECTION 7 OPERATOR INSTALLATION Slide the gate halfway along the first section and level the unsecured end, ensuring that the rack is resting on the Pinion Spyder, not pressing down. Continue this way to fix all sections. Before fully fixing each section of rack, slide the gate backwards and forwards along the section, checking that the rack is only resting on the Pinion Spyder, and not pressing down onto it.
