NOTES

1. Disconnecting the STOP terminal from the COMMON terminal stops the gate and prevents

all commands from having any effect.

2. Inside and Outside Interrupt Loops:
• For safety and proper gate operation, gate(s) must open toward the Inside Interrupt loop.
• For maximum safety, Inside and Outside Interrupt loops require separate loop detectors.
• If only one loop detector is used, the Outside loop must also be connected to the Inside loop

detector.

• In Bi-Parting and Bi-Parting Latch Master/Slave systems, to enhance system safety,

Interrupt loops, Shadow loops and Interrupt Bar switches may be connected to both gates.
If this is done, when connecting the two control boards, do not interchange input and
common terminals
. If terminals are interchanged, inputs will not be detected and
controller boards may be damaged.

POST INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

1. Setup

1. Turn on the main power at the gate operator's circuit breaker.
2. Verify that switch S2 (the Gate Open Direction switch) is set to the correct position.
3. Turn on the unit power switch (on master/slave systems, turn on slave and then master).

2. Manual inputs

1. Verify that Manual Open fully opens the gate and that the open limit switch stops the gate.
2. Verify that Manual Close fully closes the gate and that the close limit switch stops the gate.
3. Verify that Manual Stop stops the gate.
Note: If the gate stops due to a Reverse Fault, readjust the gate sensitivity pot.

3. Mechanical

Use the Manual Input commands to verify that:
1. The gate swings open and closed smoothly.
2. There is no squeak or vibration in the gate when it is moving .
3. There is no belt and torque limiter slippage when the gate moves or stops.
4. There is no slack in the closed gate due to loose chain or parts.
5. Both gates open and close at the same time (Bi-Parting gates only).

4. Gate sensitivity

1. Left/Right Reverse sensitivity:

Apply a bump to the opening and closing gate and verify that the gate stops or reverses.

2. Inrush (Gate response time) :

Apply a bump to the gate as it initiates opening and closing and verify that the gate
responds to the bump within a second.
