Turning Both Power Switches On
AC and DC power switches are located on the outside edge of the control
box. See Figure 3-1.
After
Programming the Initial Setup Menu
, and connecting to main power
(
), take the following steps:
1. Turn both power switches ON. The gate moves and searches for the
target magnet to re-establish the limits.
An audible beep occurs and a
red light pulsates next to the OPEN button on the Smart DC
Controller which indicates the system is functioning. If AC power is
lost, the rate of flashing slows down. Other indicator lights are
described below.
Note:If the target magnet is not detected by the operator,
“ALERT 15 - NO TARGET” or “LEARN OPEN” appears on the
display. For more information, refer to
.
2. When the target magnet is detected, the software version briefly
appears on the display, and then one of the following modes appears:
•
Gate status - indicates the operator is in Run Mode.
Refer to
.
•
Alert, fault, and error messages - indicates a problem exists with
the operator which needs to be resolved before the operator can
function properly. Refer to
Smart DC Controller Troubleshooting
NOTE
The Smart DC Controller can be powered when either switch is turned on. If the DC power
switch is OFF the motor and batteries are disconnected. The operator will not function (even
though the AC power switch remains on). When the operator is connected to AC power and
both switches are turned ON, the charge level of the battery is being monitored and main-
tained. On a solar-powered operator, the lower power switch connects and disconnects the DC
power from the solar panels.
The flashing red indicator light next to the OPEN
button on the Smart DC Controller is considered the
‘heart’ beat of the system. It indicates that the
electronics board is receiving power. When AC power
is lost, the rate of flashing slows down. Another
indicator light, above the display, is multi-colored
and corresponds to the action that the operator is
performing:
•
Green - the operator is stopped.
•
Flashing yellow - the operator is running.
•
Red - the operator has experienced an error.
•
Not lit - AC power is lost. Pressing the SHOW
LEDs button indicates which inputs, if any, are active. Refer to Figure 4-2 for the SHOW LEDs location
on the board.
