    Abstract: A swing door operator for moving at least one door leaf between a first and a second position includes a motor and a mechanical drive unit connected to and capable of moving the at least one door leaf from the first position to the second position, and a braking circuit connected to the motor. The braking circuit includes a diode circuit arranged to apply a voltage drop to the motor. The motor is adapted to act as a generator and is configured to generate a voltage when the drive unit moves the at least one door leaf, and to brake a movement of the at least one door leaf when the voltage generated by the motor is larger than the voltage drop applied by the diode circuit. The diode circuit includes at least three diodes connected in series.

    Abstract: A control arrangement for an entrance system, having one or more movable door members and an automatic door operator for causing movements of the one or more movable door members between closed and open positions, includes a controller and one or more sensor units. Each sensor unit is connected to the controller and arranged to monitor a respective zone at the entrance system for presence or activity of a person or object. At least one sensor is an image-based sensor unit having an image sensor arranged for capturing an image of an external object, a memory arranged for storing a plurality of settings for the image-based sensor unit, and a processing device. The processing device is arranged for processing the image captured by the image sensor to identify a machine-readable optical code therein, deriving a configuration instruction encoded by the optical code, and executing the configuration instruction.

    Abstract: Method (100) for controlling a drive arrangement (200) for an automatic door operator (30) of an entrance system (10) having one or more movable door members (D1 . . . Dm), whereby the automatic door operator (30) is for causing movements of the one or more movable door members (D1 . . . Dm) between a closed position and an opened position, respectively. The drive arrangement (200) comprises a DC-motor (34) for driving the automatic door operator (30), a H-bridge (96) and a controller (32, 232) for controlling the drive arrangement (200). The H-bridge (96) comprises a first leg (A) and a second leg (B), the first leg (A) and second leg (B) both being connected to a first voltage supply line (97) and a second voltage supply line (98), the first voltage supply line (97) having a higher voltage than the second voltage supply line (98).
