Safety Installation Information
1. Vehicular gate systems provide convenience and security. Gate systems are comprised of many component parts. The gate operator is only one component. Each gate system is specifically designed for an individual application.
2. Gate operating system designers, installers and users must take into account the possible hazards associated with each individual application. Improperly designed, installed or maintained systems can create risks for the user as well as the bystander. Gate systems design and installation must reduce exposure to potential hazards.
3. A gate operator can create high levels of force in its function as a component part of a gate system. Therefore, safety features must be incorporated into every gate system design. Specific safety features include:
• Edges Sensors (contact)
• Guards for Exposed Rollers
• Photoelectric Sensors
• Screen Mesh
• Instructional and Precautionary Signage
4. Install the gate operator only when:
a. The operator is appropriate for the construction and the usage class of the gate.
b. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 6 feet (1.8 m) above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inches (6 cm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position.
c. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
5. The gate operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the pedestrian access such that persons will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
6. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment.
7. The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator.
8. Permanently mounted access controls intended for users to activate, must be located at least 6 feet (1.8 m) away from any moving part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. Exception: Emergency access controls only accessible by authorized personnel (e.g. fire, police) may be placed at any location in the line-of-sight of the gate.
9. For a gate operator utilizing a Stop and/or Reset button, it must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start.
10. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed in the area of the gate. Each warning sign is to be visible by persons located on the side of the gate on which the sign is installed.
11. For a gate operator utilizing a non-contact sensor:
a. See Install Entrapment Protection section for placement of non-contact sensor for each type of application.
b. Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is still moving.
c. One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
12. For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge sensor:
a. One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate.
b. A hard wired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so the communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subject to mechanical damage.
c. A wireless device such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment protection functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures, natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless device shall function under the intended end-use conditions.
Role of Dealers, Installers, and Trained Gate System Technicians

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate:
• ALL gate operator systems REQUIRE two independent entrapment protection systems for each entrapment zone.
• Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone who may come near a moving gate.
• Entrapment protection devices MUST be located to protect in BOTH the open and close gate cycles.
• Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving gate and RIGID objects, such as posts, walls, pillars, columns, or operator itself.
Step 4 Install Entrapment Protection Install entrapment protection devices according to the UL 325 Entrapment Protection Requirements section, see page 3. Use the Site Planning Safety Checklist to identify entrapment zones that will result from the installation.
1. Install entrapment protection devices for ALL entrapment zones.
This operator has an inherent entrapment protection device built-in.
The installer MUST provide one additional entrapment protection device for each entrapment zone.
2. The operator will NOT run unless aminimum of two external devices are connected; one in the open direction and one in the closed direction.
3. Test ALL entrapment protection devices AFTER installing the operator, refer to the manual provided with your entrapment protection device. Test the inherent entrapment protection by following the Obstruction Test instructions on page 25.
Definitions ENTRAPMENT: The condition when a person is caught or held in a position that increases the risk of injury.
SLIDE GATE ENTRAPMENT ZONE: An entrapment zone exists if at any point during travel, the gap between the gate and any opposing fixed edge or surface such as posts, walls, pillars, columns or operator itself, is less than 16" (406 mm) in a location up to 6 ft. (1.8 m) above grade.

Wire Entrapment Protection Devices There are three options for wiring external entrapment protection devices depending on the specific device and how the device will function. Refer to the manual included with your entrapment protection device for more information. These entrapment protection device inputs are for monitored devices, which include pulsed photoelectric sensors, resistive edge sensors, and pulsed edge sensors. Only one monitored entrapment protection device may be wired to each input. Additional entrapment protection devices may be wired to the expansion board.
NOTE: Board inputs for entrapment protection devices are yellow.
Control Board
CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT
(2 Terminals) The CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT input is for photoelectric sensor entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will open to the full open position and resets the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening.
CLOSE EDGE
(2 Terminals) The CLOSE EDGE input is for edge sensor entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will reverse to the full open position, disengaging the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening.
OPEN EYES/EDGE
(2 Terminals) The OPEN EYES/EDGE input is for photoelectric sensor or edge sensor entrapment protection for the open direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate opening the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop. This input will be disregarded during gate closing.

Step 5 Earth Ground Rod Use the proper earth ground rod for your local area. The ground wire must be a single, whole piece of wire. Never splice two wires for the ground wire. If you should cut the ground wire too short, break it, or destroy its integrity, replace it with a single wire length.
1. Install the earth ground rod within 3 feet (.9 m) of the operator.
2. Run wire from the earth ground rod to the operator.
NOTE: If the operator is not grounded properly the range of the remote controls will be reduced and the operator will be more susceptible to lightning and surge damage.
To operator
Check national and local codes for proper depth
Step 6 Power Wiring
To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
• ANY maintenance to the operator or in the area near the operator MUST NOT be performed until disconnecting the electrical power (AC or solar and battery) and locking-out the power via the operator power switch. Upon completion of maintenance the area MUST be cleared and secured, at that time the unit may be returned to service.
• Disconnect power at the fuse box BEFORE proceeding. Operator MUST be properly grounded and connected in accordance with national and local electrical codes.
NOTE: The operator should be on a separate fused line of adequate capacity.
• ALL electrical connections MUST be made by a qualified individual.
• DO NOT install ANY wiring or attempt to run the operator without consulting the wiring diagram.
• ALL power wiring should be on a dedicated circuit and well protected.
The location of the power disconnect should be visible and clearly labeled.
• ALL power and control wiring MUST be run in separate conduit.
The operator can be wired for either 120 Vac or 240 Vac or a solar panel (not provided). Follow the directions according to your application. An optional Transformer Kit (Model 3PHCONV) can be used to change the input voltage (208/240/480/575 Vac) to an output voltage of 120 Vac (refer to Accessories). For dual gate applications, power will have to be connected to each operator. Main power supply and control wiring MUST be run in separate conduits.
SOLAR APPLICATIONS: For solar applications refer to Solar Panels section in the Appendix. Follow the directions according to your application.
NOTE: If using an external receiver use shielded wire for the connections and mount the receiver away from the operator to avoid interference from the operator.

The basic installation is complete.
Limit and Force Adjustment
To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
• Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a moving gate.
• Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety reversal system.
• NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move gate.
• NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking gate.
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other control may also need adjustment.
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Gate MUST reverse on contact with an object.
Introduction Your operator is designed with electronic controls to make travel limit and force adjustments easy. The adjustments allow you to program where the gate will stop in the open and close position.
The force is adjusted automatically when you program the limits but should be fine tuned using the REVERSAL FORCE dial on the control board (refer to Fine Tune the Force section) to compensate for environmental changes. The limit setup LEDs (located next to the SET OPEN and SET CLOSE buttons) indicate the status of the limits, refer to the table to the right.
The limits can be set using the control board (below) or a remote control (refer to Limit Setup with a Remote Control in the Appendix). Setting the limits with a remote control requires a 3-button remote control programmed to OPEN, CLOSE, and STOP.
NOTE: The TEST buttons on the control board will not work until the limits have been set and the required entrapment protection devices are installed.

Initial Limits and Force Adjustment For dual gate applications the limits will have to be set for each operator. The gate MUST be attached to the operator before setting the limits and force.
For slide gate applications the open limit and closed limit MUST be set at least four feet apart.
If a mistake is made while programming the limits press the reset button to start over.
1. Press and release the SET OPEN and SET CLOSE buttons simultaneously to enter limit setting mode.
2. Press and hold one of the MOVE GATE buttons to move the gate to the open or close limit.
3. Press and release the SET CLOSE or SET OPEN button depending on which limit is being set.
4. Press and hold one of the MOVE GATE button to move the gate to the other limit.
5. Press and release the SET CLOSE or SET OPEN button depending on which limit is being set.
6. Cycle the gate open and close. This automatically sets the force.
When limits are set properly the operator will automatically exit limit setting mode.
ADJUSTMENT
Fine Tune the Force Once the initial limits have been set, the REVERSAL FORCE DIAL on the control board is used for fine tuning the force where wind or environmental changes may affect the gate travel. The REVERSAL FORCE DIAL is set to minimum at the factory.
Based on the length and weight of the gate it may be necessary to make additional force adjustments. The force setting should be high enough that the gate will not reverse by itself nor cause nuisance interruptions, but low enough to prevent serious injury to a person. The force setting is the same for both the open and close gate directions.
1. Open and close the gate with the TEST BUTTONS.
2. If the gate stops or reverses before reaching the fully open or closed position, increase the force by turning the force control slightly clockwise.
3. Perform the “Obstruction Test” after every limit and force setting adjustment (see below).
Adjust the Limits After both limits are set and the operator is ready to run, one limit can be adjusted independently from the other by following steps 1-3 of the Initial Limit and Force Adjustment section.
Obstruction Test The operator is equipped with an inherent (built in to the operator) obstruction sensing device. If the gate encounters an obstruction during motion, the operator will reverse direction of the gate and then stop. The following procedure will test ONLY the inherent (built in to the operator) obstruction sensing device:
1. Open and close the gate with the TEST BUTTONS, ensuring that the gate is stopping at the proper open and close limit positions.
2. Either place an object between the open gate and the fixed closed catch post or obstruct the gate by hand. Make sure that any external entrapment protection devices, such as an edge or photoelectric sensor will NOT be activated by the object or by hand.
3. Run the gate in the close direction. The gate should stop and reverse upon contact with the object or hand. If the gate does not reverse, reduce the force setting by turning the force control slightly counter-clockwise. The gate should have enough force to reach both the open and close limits, but MUST reverse after contact with an object or hand.
4. Repeat the test for the open direction.
Test the operator after any adjustments are made.
