ZAP 8000 SERIES DC MOTOR-DRIVES & CONTROLLERS
FOR SECTIONAL DOORS

FEATURES:

VARIABLE SPEED OPERATION with a "V" belt drive. The slow speed change point is automatically adjusted by the microprocessor, during successive door operations, to 3 seconds before the limit of the door travel. This provides a rapid action with a soft stop.

INTEGRAL SAFETY CONTROL: On detection of an obstruction during the fast close cycle, the door will STOP and RE-OPEN.

BUILT-IN REMOTE CONTROL RECEIVER, with a non-volatile memory for up to 60 different transmitter codes. The control unit incorporates a "code grabber", which easily enables the customer to programme new transmitter codes --in just a few seconds! The code memory can easily be erased by the customer. The receiver will operate with any of the Zap range of transmitters, including the key-fob style Zap-Key four channel transmitter, the Model 4305A six channel "Hand-Grip" transmitter, and the Model 4504 robust Fork Lift Truck mounting, four channel transmitter, which is "fork lift driver-proof".

AUTO-CLOSE TIMER, which is enabled by a panel switch. The pre-programmed close delay time of 15 seconds can easily be changed at any time by the customer from 1 second to 2 minutes. The Auto-Close operation can be programmed to continue to auto-close, or remain open if the door has re-opened following the detection of an obstruction. When the Auto-Close function is selected, the control unit will only provide an OPEN response to a signal from a pre-programmed remote control transmitter. If the Auto-Close function is disabled, the response to signals from the remote control transmitter will be: PRESS TO OPEN - PRESS TO STOP - PRESS TO CLOSE - PRESS TO STOP. If a Model WL250-S Photo Beam, or a Magnetic Loop Vehicle detector is used as a safety device, then the door will stop and re-open in fast speed, and the Auto-Close timer will restart if it is enabled.

AUTO-CLOSE INHIBIT: With the Auto-Close timer enabled, it may be advantageous sometimes to temporarily disable the function - on a hot summers day, for example. This can be easily done by the programme sequence "STOP-CLOSE" using the button station. When the door is fully open, press and hold the STOP button, then hold the CLOSE button until a bleep response is heard. This confirms that the door will stay open until the close button is next pressed. The Auto-Close function will operate normally thereafter.

A WARNING CLOSE DELAY, which is easily programmed from between 1 and 10 seconds, to allow a ZAP Warning Speaker ( Model 4401) or other warning device, to operate before the door starts to close.

A 1 KW LIGHT CONTROL output, which will either switch on and remain on for three minutes from the last operation, or if enabled by a panel switch, will switch on when the door is opened, and turn off when the door is fully closed. The light may be turned on by momentary operation of the remote control transmitter button. If the transmitter button is held on for longer than 1.5 seconds, the light will turn on and the door will open.

OPERATIONS COUNTER: Accessed through a simple STOP and OPEN button station operation, with a sequence of bleeps, provides an indication of the number of operations the door has completed.

SERVICE DUE REMINDER which operates automatically, approximately every six months. A series of bleeps is emitted prior to the door closing, following operation of the CLOSE button or transmitter button. This prompts the customer to call the installer, to query why there is a delay in the door moving in the CLOSE direction, accompanied by the sequence of bleeps. The Service reminder operates after 2560 operations, or 1280 open cycles, (assuming 10 cycles each day for a 5 day week, this equates to 26 weeks or 6 months).

Plug-in terminals are provided for ease of wiring the following:

• Case lid OPEN, STOP and CLOSE buttons (Model 8000-PB) or for connection of a remote button station (Model 3333).
• External safety control circuit, which can be either a Normally Closed circuit, or a C.E.N. fail safe circuit with an 8k2 Ohm terminating resistor.
  
• 24 Volt DC supply for accessories such as Zap Model WL250-S Polarised Photo Beam.
• Optional Zap Model 4401 Warning Speaker for a CLOSE warning.
• Optional Traffic light control.
• Optional Battery pack connection. ( Model 8030 ).
• Optional Auto Lock and lock-test circuits, to be used in conjunction with a Model 8066K Lock Control unit or interlock to a "shoot bolt" switch.
  
• Optional plug-in Bleeper module ( Model 850 ).
• AC Single Phase mains supply.
• AC Single Phase lighting control output.
• Low voltage DC controlled motor supply.
• Interlock connection.

Panel mounted switches are provided for the following:

Switch No. 1: Safety Sense switch, which enables the safety circuit to be changed from a Normally Closed circuit, to a C.E.N. conforming circuit (which provides a continuous monitor for both an OPEN or a SHORT circuit). The terminating resistor must be 8k2 Ohms.

Switch No.2: Safety Over-ride switch is provided on the panel, to allow the door operation without an external safety circuit , or before the safety circuit has been completed.

Switch No. 3: Interlock Override.

Switch No.4: Auto-Close switch. This enables the Auto-Close timer.

Switch No.5: NOT USED.

Switch No.6: Lighting mode control switch. The off position facilitates 3 minute lighting control from the last door operation. When the switch is enabled, for dock lighting, the lighting power output switches on as the door opens, and switches off when the door is fully closed.

Panel mounted indicators are provided for the following:

A SAFETY ACTIVE indicator is provided to show the operation of the safety circuit. The indicator operates regardless of whether the door is moving or stationary, and enables Photo-beams etc. to be tested statically.

An "OPENING" indicator is provided which signifies the door moving in the OPEN direction.

A "CLOSING" indicator is provided which signifies the door moving in the CLOSE direction.

A "POWER" indicator. The indicator illuminates continually when mains power is connected, and starts flashing when the mains supply has failed, providing the control unit is operating with battery back-up power.
