Advanced Controller Programming (Cont.)
Soft Start/Stop Duration
This function causes the operator to start and stop the DC motor slowly
reducing gate wear and tear (at the full open or closed positions only).
The factory default sets the Soft Start/Stop Duration to 3 seconds. The
Soft Start/Stop Duration can be set from 1 to 10 seconds.
✓ NOTE: Changing the Soft Start/Stop Duration will reset the open and
close current setting value to zero. It will be necessary to reprogram
maximum open and close current settings.
Reset Cycle Count
The Controller counts of the number of times the operator has been
activated and can display the count rounded off to the nearest 1000. To
reset the Cycle Count, press and hold the
ENTER button for 2 seconds
while the Cycle Count is displayed.
If the Maintenance Alert has been triggered, resetting the Cycle Count
will also reset the Maintenance Alert indicator.
Maintenance Alert Trigger
The Controller has a MAINT ALERT indicator that can be programmed to
light when the number of activations exceeds a set number of cycles.
The factory default sets the Maintenance Alert Trigger to 10,000 cycles.
The Maintenance Alert Trigger can be programmed for 5, 10, 15, or 25
thousand cycles.
The Maintenance Cycle Count can be reset independently from the
operator’s absolute Cycle Count.
Mid-travel Stop Position
The Controller can be programmed so the gate will stop at a mid-travel
point instead of fully opening. This can be useful in installations where a
large gate, that takes a long time to open and close fully, only needs to
be opened partway to allow traffic to pass.
The factory default sets the Controller for full open operation. Alternately,
the Controller can be programmed to open for 1 to 99 seconds then stop,
before reaching the open limit.
When a Mid-travel Stop Position time has been programmed, the gate
will
still fully open if the Fire Department input is triggered, if the OPEN
button is held down beyond the Mid-travel Stop Position, or a close
obstruction or reverse loop input is triggered.
✓ NOTE: The Mid-travel Stop feature is disabled when dual gate
operation is enabled for paired units.
Motor Type Selection
The factory sets the default for the Controller to match the type of motor in
the operator.
When the Controller is used with the Model LRA Linear
Residential Actuator leave this setting at the factory default.
