Autotech R-2010 control panel - Detailed features
The Autotech R-2010 control panel is housed in a plastic box and can be used with 230 VAC roller mechanisms that have limit switches. Detailed features:
- The control panel works with mechanisms that have limit switches. These switches cut off power when the roller reaches the open or closed position. The panel detects this, cuts off the power, and on the next command, executes the opposite movement.
- Accepts setting for automatic closing.
- 230 VAC output for lighting or safety beacon.
- 24 V AC output for powering accessories (e.g., safety beacon, safety photocells).
- Features an input for safety photocells.
- Features an input for a command button.
- Easy and simple remote control registration procedure via the AUTO LEARN button. The remote controls supported by the panel operate at a frequency of 433.92 MHz and use 12-bit fixed code, Autotech 24-bit, or KeeLoq rolling code encoding.
- Indicator LEDs which are particularly useful both during installation and operation of the control panel.
- SMD technology.
- CE Declaration of Conformity
- Box dimensions with flange 150x98x40 mm
- Box dimensions without flange 134x98x40 mm (flange can be easily removed)
- Board dimensions 100×88 mm
The above control panel has been tested in several installations without showing malfunctions and problems. In combination with the above properties, it is an excellent solution for roller mechanisms that have limit switches.
Autotech R-2010 control panel layout
The transformer is located in the upper left part of the control panel. Below the transformer, a 6A fuse and 3 relays are placed in a row.
At the bottom of the panel, 2 terminals are located:
- On the left is the power terminal. We connect the power supply, the warning light, and the two windings of the mechanism in series. All these contacts require caution during work as they involve 230 V AC.
- On the right is the terminal for control, monitoring, and safety devices. Here, in order, there are contacts that provide 24 V AC for powering accessories, contacts for the open and close limit switches, contacts for connecting photocells and buttons, and the contact for the receiver's antenna. The antenna is usually a single-strand cable about 0.17m long. If the antenna is removed, the range of the remote control receiver will be zero.
LED indications of Autotech R-2010 control panel
The Autotech R-2010 control panel has three LED lights.
- L1 & L2 are located above the control, monitoring, and safety device terminal block. Each LED corresponds to a switch (contact). When the LED is lit, it indicates that the contact is closed.
- L1 (PHOTO position) indicates the status of the safety photocells. When lit, it means the photocell switch is closed, so the safety photocell does not detect an obstruction. When off, it means the safety photocell detects an obstruction. It is an NC switch and remains lit in its normal state.
- L2 (BUTTON position) indicates the status of the button. When lit (button switch closed), it means the button is pressed. Conversely, when off, the button is not pressed. It is an NO switch and remains off in its normal state.
- L3 is located above the Auto Learn remote control learning button. It is used during the storage of new remote controls in the control panel and also indicates any motor overload.
Storing remote controls in the Autotech R-2010 control panel
The process for storing remote controls in the Autotech R-2010 control panel is as follows: Press the LEARN button once. The LED light turns on for 10 seconds. During this time, press the button on the remote control that you wish to store. The control panel stores it.If the control panel's capacity has been exceeded, then when the next remote control is registered (beyond the 200), it will take the place of the first remote control (the one that was stored first).
After 10 seconds, the LED light turns off, and the control panel returns to its normal operation.
If you want to delete all remote controls from the control panel, press and hold the LEARN button for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, the control panel's memory will be cleared.
Autotech R-2010 control panel power terminal
- The GND contact is suitable for grounding the power supply. The power supply ground must be connected to both the AUTOTECH R-2010 panel and the mechanism or the mechanism's body. The two contacts (marked POWER 230V) follow, to which we connect the power from the mains. We connect the phase to the L contact (first from the left) and the neutral to the N contact (next). (To find the phase, we use a test screwdriver).
- To the two contacts marked LAMP, we can connect a light bulb or a warning beacon. Microswitch 1 controls the operation of this contact. The warning beacon is not essential for the mechanism's operation, but in many cases, it can inform passers-by about the mechanism's operation and prevent accidents.
- The next contacts (OPEN, COM, and CLOSE) are for connecting the mechanism.
- The CLOSE and OPEN contacts correspond to the two windings of the mechanism that open and close the roller, respectively. Each winding receives power from one of these two contacts and the COM contact. Note also that the motor's capacitor is connected between OPEN and CLOSE. Since in almost all roller motors, the capacitor is already integrated into the motor and connected, you don't need to do anything specific.
- The neutral for the motor windings is connected to the COM contact.
Connections to the control and safety device terminal block
- The first two contacts (~24V and COMMON) are used to power devices such as safety photocells with low voltage 24 VAC alternating current.
- The PHOTO contact is used to connect the safety photocells. The safety photocells detect any obstruction and open a switch which is connected between this contact and the following COMMON contact and is of the type:
- If microswitch #2 is in the ON position, then it is of type NC (Normally-Closed). If we are not using safety photocells and microswitch #2 is in the ON position, then we must bridge the PHOTO contact with the next COMMON contact.
- If microswitch #2 is in the OFF position, then it is of type NO (Normally-Open). If we are not using safety photocells and microswitch #2 is in the OFF position, we should not bridge the PHOTO contact with the next COMMON contact.
- The button control is connected to the contact labeled BUTTON. It is an NO (Normally-Open) type switch, and the control button is connected between this contact and the next COMMON contact.
- The next COMMON contact is another neutral for connecting the command button and the command switch from the safety photocells.
- The last contact, marked ANTENNA, is suitable for the remote control receiver's antenna. The antenna is usually a single-strand cable about 0.17m long. If the antenna is removed, the range of the remote control receiver will be zero.
Programming microswitches of Autotech R-2010 control panel
(Dip-switches)
In the upper right part of the Autotech R-2010 control panel, 4 programming microswitches (dip-switches) have been placed, which are normally in the down position (OFF).
First microswitch
The OFF position of the first microswitch is suitable for connecting a light bulb. The bulb operates as long as the mechanism is operating and remains open for an additional 60 seconds. 
The ON position of the first microswitch is suitable for connecting a safety beacon. A continuous operation beacon must be connected, and the flashing is performed by the control panel. It operates as long as the mechanism is operating.
Second microswitch
The second microswitch regulates the operation of the photocells
The safety photocells control an NO (Normally-Open) type switch.
The safety photocells control an NC (Normally-Closed) type switch.
Third microswitch
In the OFF position of the third microswitch, automatic closing does not operate.
In the ON position, automatic closing is activated. Via the AUTO CLOSE potentiometer, we adjust how long the roller will remain open before automatically closing. Fourth microswitch
The microswitch should be in the OFF position if we connect a push-button panel or if we do not want to connect anything to the BUTTON contact. The command from the button is an N.O. (Normally Open) type contact, and the sequence of movements is OPEN-STOP-CLOSE-STOP-OPEN-...
The ON position of the fourth microswitch is used for Emergency Open operation, where, for example, a signal from a fire detection system or a "mushroom" type switch can be connected as a manual safety device. The command from the button is an N.C. (Normally Closed) type contact, and if the contact opens, the panel performs OPEN.Automatic closing - Autotech R-2010 control panel
The automatic closing of the roller can be set to start from 5 seconds after the door opens up to 120 seconds. The user can adjust the time as desired via the AUTO CLOSE potentiometer. For the roller to operate with automatic closing, microswitch #3 must be in the ON position.Remote control receiver of Autotech R-2010 control panel

If you want to delete all remote controls from the control panel, press and hold the AUTO LEARN button for 10 seconds. After 10 seconds, the control panel's memory will be cleared.
Connecting the Autotech R-2010 control panel to the electrical mains
The Autotech R-2010 control panel connection to the power grid is done according to the diagram below:
- First, using a test screwdriver, locate and connect the phase and neutral to the correct terminals.
- Connect the earth, which has also been connected to the mechanism. Make sure the earth connection is properly made.
- Check if the roller shutter opens and closes in the correct directions. If not, swap the OPEN & CLOSE cables (and not the phase and neutral).
The first time the panel is connected to the power (or after a power outage), the first action it performs is opening. This way, we check if the opening-closing direction is correct.
Setting the opening-closing direction of the Autotech R-2010 control panel
Roller shutter mechanisms usually have two windings. Each of these, when energized, provides the mechanism with a specific direction of rotation. One winding works when the roller shutter opens, and the other when it closes.
The control panel is usually connected to the mechanism with a 4X1.5 mm² cable. The side diagram shows a typical connection (colors are indicative)
Central roller shutter mechanisms have extra limit switches that are not connected to the panel. They operate independently and stop movement at the fully open and fully closed positions.
If the mechanism does not operate in the correct direction but moves in reverse (closing instead of opening and vice-versa), then swap the cables on the OPEN and CLOSE terminals as shown in the diagrams below.
Connecting a lighting lamp or warning light to the Autotech R-2010 panel
On the R-2010 panel, we need to choose whether to connect a lighting lamp or a warning light. It is not possible to connect both automations simultaneously, and we use microswitch #1 to define if we have a lamp or a warning light. They must be continuous operation and operate with a 230 V AC supply voltage.
The connection method is shown in the diagram below:
Connecting a command button to the Autotech R-2010 control panel
The command button is connected via the BUTTON and COMMON terminals as shown in the adjacent diagram. For the command button to work, microswitch #4 must be in the OFF position. Control buttons are essentially NO (Normally-Open) switches.
Connecting safety photocells to the Autotech R-2010 control panel
Safety photocells are essentially NC (Normally-Closed) switches that open when an obstacle is detected. They consist of 2 parts, the transmitter and the receiver. The transmitter emits a light beam, and the receiver receives it. When there is an obstacle, communication between the transmitter and receiver is interrupted. The Autotech R-2010 control panel works only with photocells that protect during the closing of the roller shutter.
The connection of the safety photocells is as shown in the diagram above. In detail:
- We use the two ~24V and COMMON terminals for powering the photocells.
- While for the NC switch provided by the safety photocells, we use the PHOTO and COMMON terminals.
After installing the photocells, we perform the necessary functional checks. We command the roller shutter to close and carefully (with great caution) introduce an obstacle that interrupts the light beam between the transmitter and the receiver. Then the roller shutter should stop and begin to open. If this does not happen, we first check the photocells to see if the LED they usually have changes and if a distinct sound is heard when we introduce the obstacle. We also check on the panel if the Led L2-PHOTO turns off when we introduce the obstacle.
Connecting multiple switches to the Autotech R-2010 control panel
NC Switches: follow series connection as in the side diagram.
NO Switches: follow parallel connection as in the side diagram.
