/!\ To enable control of the gate / pedestrian door via the “Somfy Protect” app, the video door phone door station must be wired to the gate motor and/or the pedestrian door’s electric latch.
CONNECTING TO A SOMFY GATE MOTORISATION
/!\ In compliance with standard EN 12453 on the safe use of motorised doors and gates, using a video door phone to control an automatic gate or garage door that may not be visible to the user necessarily requires the installation of a photoelectric cell-type security device on this automated system. Failure to comply with these instructions absolves Somfy of any liability resulting from damage that may be caused.
1 / Switch off the power supply to the Somfy gate motor.
2 / Remove the cover from the control cabinet or from the motor containing the electronics.
3 / Connect the door station dry contact output (COM and NO) to the drive electronics. If connecting the door station is not explained in the drive manual, follow the instructions for connecting a key switch.
When the drive is solar-powered, the wired controls are deactivated. It can only be controlled by Io-homecontrol® radio control via the indoor monitor. To connect the door station to another gate drive model, please refer to the relevant installation guide.
CONNECTING TO AN ELECTRIC LATCH (PEDESTRIAN GATE)
Connect terminal blocks L- and L+ of the door station to the electric latch.
Observe the correct polarity: refer to the electric latch instructions.
The latch activation time (2, 5 or 10 seconds) is set via the “Settings” menu on the indoor monitor.
