Unitec CAME Gate and Gate Controller Installation Guide

6. If everything is operating correctly, X6 LED on the PLC should be lit and the LCD screen on

the Gate controller should show “Wait for Gate 3”. If not, verify wiring from X6/Terminal 33 to
the Gate terminal strip.

7. With the Gate for lane 3 open, drive a car through Lane 3. Validate that the Gate lowers after

the rear of the vehicle comfortably passes off the Gate Loop.

8. After the gate for Lane 3 closes, the LCD screen on the Gate controller should either show

“Car in Merge area” (if you have a Merge loop installed). Or “Idle/Scanning”

9. If you have connected the wash arming signals to your Tunnel controller, you should verify a

wash has been queued. If not, verify from the entry unit to the Tunnel controller.

Testing for Lane 3 is complete.

Testing System Interface for Lane 4

1. Remove any vehicles below all gate loops and merge loop.

2. Verify that all Gates have power and the gates are down. Gates should be switched to

Automatic mode.

3. Verify that the “Wash In Use” LED is lit at the entry unit. If not, check the wiring from

Y4/Terminals 44 and 11 of the Gate controller to the entry unit.

4. Arm a wash at the entry unit in Lane 4.

5. Verify Gate at Lane 4 opens. If not, view the LCD screen on the PLC. If it shows

“IDLE/SCANNING” still, then it is not getting the signal into X3/terminal 24 from the entry unit.
Check your wiring from the Gate Controller to the entry unit. If it shows “Open Gate 4” then
check the wiring from the Gate Controller Y7/Terminal 54 to the Gate terminal strip.

6. If everything is operating correctly, X7 LED on the PLC should be lit and the LCD screen on

the Gate controller should show “Wait for Gate 4”. If not, verify wiring from X7/Terminal 34 to
the Gate terminal strip.

7. With the Gate for lane 4 open, drive a car through Lane 4. Validate that the Gate lowers after

the rear of the vehicle comfortably passes off the Gate Loop.

8. After the gate for Lane 4 closes, the LCD screen on the Gate controller should either show

“Car in Merge area” (if you have a Merge loop installed). Or “Idle/Scanning”

9. If you have connected the wash arming signals to your Tunnel controller, you should verify a

wash has been queued. If not, verify connections from the entry unit to the Tunnel controller.

Testing for Lane 4 is complete.

Test for Merge Area

Using a vehicle, drive a small vehicle in all areas of the merge area, Verify that there are no dead zones.
Verify that in all areas, the PLC LCD shows “Car in Merge Area”. If not, determine if the issue is one of
the following:

• A merge loop signal from one of the gates is not functioning or being sent to Terminal 35.
• The merge area is not covered by merge loops completely.
