Sliding gate automation 746 C & 844 C

Overview

• Renewed FAAC gearmotors with integrated E781S LC electronic control unit providing adjustable speed settings, two dedicated safety-edge inputs (NC or 8.2 kΩ) and Bus2Easy connectivity.
• High‑performance closed‑loop motor control with high‑resolution encoder for smoother acceleration/deceleration ramps, force optimisation, reduced consumption and adjustable obstacle detection sensitivity.
• Compatibility: Compatible with the Simply Connect platform and FDS radio technology.
• Integrated low‑consumption standby: E781S LC supports a low power standby mode compliant with Ecodesign Directive 2009/125/EC and EU Regulation 2023/826. Low‑power mode can be enabled/disabled from the board menu and activates automatically after inactivity (<0.5 W standard; 2 W when connected to Simply Connect).
