Pre-installation Information
Before You Begin...
Before unpacking, inspect the carton for exterior damage . If you find damage, advise the delivery carrier of a potential claim . Inspect your package carefully . You can check your accessory box parts with the enclosed packing slip for your convenience . Claims for shortages will be honored for only 30 days from the date of shipment .
Before installing the operator, read this manual completely to ensure all requirements for proper installation are present . Verify that the voltage to be used matches the voltage of the operator .
If you have any questions about the requirements for proper installation of this gate operator contact technical support at 800-421-1587 .
Always Check the Gate’s Action It’s very important before installing the gate operator to make sure the gate slides is free and level throughout the entire opening distance. If the gate does not seem to operate properly, it may affect the operator performance or greatly shorten the life of the unit. The gate should also be designed so that airflow is ample to prevent wind resistance and drag.
Gate Operator Classifications All gate operators can be divided into one of four different classifications, depending on their design and usage . Install this gate operator only when the operator is appropriate for the construction and usage class as defined below:
• Class I Residential Vehicular Gate Operator A vehicular gate operator intended for use in a home or for one to four single family dwellings with a common garage or parking area associated with these dwellings.
• Class II Commercial / General Access Vehicular Gate Operator A vehicular gate operator intended for use in a commercial location or building such as a multi-family housing unit of five or more single family units, hotel, retail store or other building servicing the general public.
• Class III Industrial / Limited Access Vehicular Gate Operator A vehicular gate operator intended for use in an industrial location or building such as a factory or loading dock area or other location not intended to service the general public.
• Class IV Restricted Access Vehicular Gate Operator A vehicular gate operator intended for use in a guarded industrial location or building such as an airport security area or other restricted access locations not servicing the general public, in which unauthorized access is prevented via supervision by security personnel.

4. A separate power‑disconnect switch should be located near the operator so that primary power can be turned off when necessary.
5. Install the enclosed warning signs on both sides of the gate. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the gate where easily visible.
6. Never reach between, through or around the fence to operate the gate.
7. Never connect a button station within reach of the gate or on the side of the gate operator.
8. Do not adjust the operator controller’s current sensing feature too high. It should be adjusted high enough to keep the gate from falsely triggering the sensing, but no higher than necessary for the gate to operate. DO NOT DEFEAT THE PURPOSE OF THIS FUNCTION!
9. You must install all required safety equipment.
10. UL325 Compliance requires the use of contact edges or photoelectric controls on all automatic or remotely‑controlled gate operators.
11. The 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 gate such that persons will not come into contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
VS-GSLG Slide Gate Operator Installation Guide - 2 - P1255 Revision X6 11-04-2016
Wiring Specifications Refer to the following steps for details on power and accessory wiring for the operator .
AC Power Wiring
1. Find the listing on this page corresponding to the model, voltage and horsepower rating of your operator.
2. The distance shown in the table is measured in feet from the operator to the power source. DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM DISTANCE. These calculations have been based on standard 115 V and 230 V supplies with a 10% drop allowable. If your supply is under the standard rating, the runs listed may be longer than what your application will handle, and you should not run wire too near the maximum distance for the gauge of wire you are using.
3. When large-gauge wire is used, a separate junction box (not supplied) may be needed for the operator power connection.
4. Wire length calculations are based on the National Electrical Code, Article 430 and have been carefully determined based on motor inrush, brake solenoids, and operator requirements.
5. Connect power in accordance with local codes. The green ground wire must be properly connected.
6. Wire insulation must be suitable to the application.
7. Electrical outlets are supplied in all 115 VAC models for convenience with occasional use or low power consumption devices only. If you choose to run dedicated equipment from these devices, it will decrease the distance for maximum length and the charts will no longer be accurate.
DC Control and Accessory Wiring
1. All control devices are now 24 VDC, which can be run up to 2000 feet with 14 AWG wire.
2. Control wiring must be run in a separate conduit from power wiring.
Running them together may cause interference and faulty signals in some accessories.
3. A three-wire shielded conductor cable is required to connect two operators together for dual operation. You must use Belden 8760 Twisted Pair Shielded Cable (or equivalent) only – P/N 2500-1982, per foot). See Page 24 for details of this connection. Note: The shield wire should be connected in both the operators.

VS-GSLG Slide Gate Operator Installation Guide - 3 - P1255 Revision X6 11-04-2016
Mounting Pad Installation The gate operator mounts bolted to posts secured in concrete footings . The posts support the operator and prevent it from moving during operation . For optional pad mounting instructions, see Linear drawing #2700-360 .
Gate Preparation Before installing, make sure the gate rolls or slides freely, and that all exposed rollers are properly covered . The gate must be covered with fabric with openings no larger than 2-1/4” in size, to a minimum height of 72” above ground level . On picket-style gates, if pickets are spaced less than 2-1/4” apart, mesh is optional .
Mounting Specifications Use two 3 - 3-1/2” OD galvanized posts and secure with concrete footings as shown, length to be determined by local codes, frost line depth and soil conditions .
Attach the operator with the U-bolts, side plates and hardware provided . Four 3/16” side plates go on the outside top and bottom, two 1/2” side plates go on the inside top, and two 3/16” side plates go on the inside bottom (see the illustration at right) .
To assemble the drive chain and gate brackets, refer to Page 4 . Make sure that the chain sag does not exceed recommended sizes and that the chain does not come into contact with the moving parts of the gate or ground .
Figure 2. Post Mounting Specifications
WARNING
The 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 gate such that persons will not come into contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
WARNING
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.
Figure 1. Side Plate Installation
VS-GSLG Slide Gate Operator Installation Guide - 4 - P1255 Revision X6 11-04-2016
Operator Preparation
Vent Plug Installation In order to keep gear oil from spilling out during shipping, gear reducers used in gate operators have either a solid plug, or a sealed vent plug, installed at the factory .
For operators with a solid plug, replace the solid plug with the vent plug provided (see Figure 3) .
With the vent plug installed, remove the vent plug’s breather pin to allow the gear box to vent (see Figure 3) .
Gate Bracket and Chain Assembly
✓ NOTE: The item numbers shown in these illustrations are for reference only. For the actual part numbers, refer to the parts lists in the rear of this manual.
Assemble a gate bracket (1) to the front edge of the gate, using two U-bolts (2), and mounting hardware (3) . Before tightening down completely, be sure the bracket is parallel to the gate . Tighten the U-bolt hardware the rest of the way, then screw the square head bolts (4) into the threaded holes in the gate plate until they bottom out against the gate .
These will help keep the bracket from twisting on the pipe .
Additional mounting holes have been provided in the gate bracket for installer convenience .
Slide a threaded chain pin (5) through the bracket as shown, with spring (6), flat washer (10), and two hex nuts (7) . Attach one end of the drive chain (8) to the chain pin using master link (9) and begin unrolling the chain toward the operator .
Remove the rain cover from the back of the slide gate operator . Carefully thread the drive chain under the first idler, over the drive sprocket, and then under the last idler .
Make sure you feed most of the chain through the idlers and sprocket before attaching the chain to the back end of the gate .
Assemble the other gate bracket on the rear edge of the gate, using the same process as the front gate bracket .
Once this is done, take the other chain pin, spring and jam nuts and assemble with the end of drive chain and the other master link .
At this point you should be able to adjust the chain tension by tightening the jam nuts on each end . Approximately 1/4” to 3/8” of slack per foot of drive chain is acceptable.
Make sure the chain does not drag on the ground, across the gate rollers or the idler frame of the operator .
Chain Supports When necessary, due to the length of the gate and chain, chain supports should be added to the gate at equally spaced distances to allow the chain to sag as little as possible . A bolt located one inch below the chain line should be adequate .

Operator Setup
Controller Access The Controller is protected by a plastic dust cover . To remove the dust cover, loosen the cover’s wing-screw and lift the cover off (see Figure 7) .
Manual Disconnect The manual disconnect shifter lever and the locking lever is illustrated in Figure 8 . They can be found at the center and to the left inside the operator cabinet . (The handle of each has been finished in easy to spot red firm-grip coating .)
To disconnect the unit for manual operation, grasp the handle of the spring-loaded shifter lever and pull it directly toward you until the spring-loaded locking lever snaps into place behind it . This action disengages the pinned shifter block from the drive mechanism and holds the block in the disengaged position .
To re-engage the operator, move the locking lever to the right, releasing the spring-loaded shifter lever to snap back into the engaged position .
AC Power Connection All Linear gate operators are supplied with a power disconnect switch to turn on and off the power available to the operator . Following wiring specifications on Page 2, incoming power should be brought into the operator and connected to the labeled pigtails from the disconnect box .
A wiring connections print can also be found on the label inside the cover of the operator .
Proper thermal protection is supplied with the operator . The motor contains a thermal overload protector to guard from overheating the motor due to overload or high-frequency operation . This overload protector will reset automatically after the motor cools down .
Earth Ground Install a ground rod and connect it to the operator’s frame in every gate operator installation . A good earth ground is necessary to allow the Controller’s built-in surge and lightning protection circuitry to work effectively . The physical bolting of the operator to the mounting posts is not sufficient for a good earth ground .
✓ NOTE: Do not splice the ground wire. Use a single piece of solid copper 12 AWG wire between the ground rod and the operator.
1. Install an 8-foot long copper ground rod next to the operator mounting pad within three feet of the operator.
2. Use a clamp to connect a solid copper 12 AWG ground wire to the ground rod.
3. Route the ground wire to the operator.
4. Connect the ground wire to the operator’s frame.

The limit switches are activated by two threaded nylon rotary limit nuts which are attached to a threaded limit shaft driven by a chain and sprockets from the main drive shaft . REMOVE THE CARDBOARD FILLER
BEFORE ADJUSTING THE LIMIT NUTS.
The Controller is factory setup for right-hand installations .
The OPEN limit switches are the ones closer to the front of the operator . In left-hand installations, the CLOSE limit switches are the ones closer to the front of the operator (see Figures 10 & 11) .
Limit Nuts Rough Adjustment Before running the operator, set the limit nuts as follows:
1. With the gate connected to the gate operator in a mid-travel position, turn the power disconnect switch OFF.
2. To adjust the limit nuts, press down on the detent plate and rotate the limit nut along the threaded shaft (see Figure 12).
3. Adjust the OPEN limit nut until it is about 1/2” from activating the LSO-2 OPEN limit switch.
4. Adjust the CLOSE limit nut until it is about 1/2” from activating the LSC-2 CLOSE limit switch.
Limit Nuts Fine Adjustment After finishing the rough limit nut adjustments, run the operator to set the fine limit adjustment .
1. Turn the power disconnect switch ON.
2. Stand clear of any moving parts and press the OPEN button.
3. After the gate opens, press the CLOSE button.
4. Observe the gate in both directions as it runs through each complete cycle. Adjust the open or close limit nuts again if necessary. Fine levels of adjustment can be made by adjusting a few teeth on the nut at a time. If the gate stops during travel, you may need to adjust the Open or Close Current Setting or the Maximum Run Timer (see Pages 13-14).
Setting Speeds using LSO-2 & LSC-2 Limit switches LSO-2 and LSC-2 control when the operator accelerates to maximum speed and decelerates to minimum speed . It is recommended that LSO-2 and LSC-2 are adjusted first so the gate slows to near stop before hitting LSO-1 or LSC-1 as these will apply the brake upon activation .
Adjust LSO-2 and LSC-2 by slightly loosening the two screws which hold them in place and sliding toward or away from the center of the limit box . Care must be taken not to adjust too close to the center as the limit nut may travel past the switch and start accelerating at the end of the cycle .

CAUTION
If the operator is installed in a left-hand installation. Set the Controller to left-hand operation BEFORE running the operator for the fine setting of the limit cams. Failure to do so will result in over-shooting the limit switches, and may cause damage to the operator and/or gate. Refer to programming on Page 12.

Operator Setup (Cont.)
Torque Limiter Adjustment Before adjusting the torque limiter, make sure the gate is in good working condition . With the gate disconnected from the gate arm, one person should be able to move the gate by hand . Be certain the gate moves freely and without binding throughout its travel .
Torque limiters are set light at the factory . They must be adjusted during installation, preferably after limit cams have been manually set . With the gate arm and gate attached, adjust the torque limiter tight enough to keep it from slipping during normal operation . The inherent entrapment protection (current sensing) feature must activate prior to any slipping of the torque limiter .
✓ NOTE: The open and close current sensing may need to be adjusted before performing the following two steps. See Page 13.
To adjust the torque limiter in a Model VS-GSLG:
1. Loosen the set screw on the adjustment nut.
2. Cycle the gate open and closed while observing the torque limiter action. TURN THE OPERATOR POWER DISCONNECT SWITCH
OFF BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS.
To increase the torque, turn the adjustment nut clockwise one flat, or 1/6 turn, at a time until desired output is obtained.
To reduce the torque, turn the adjustment nut counterclockwise one flat, or 1/6 turn, at a time until desired output is obtained.
3. When finished, tighten the set screw to lock the adjustment nut in place.

Basic Controller Programming
Programming Overview The Controller can be programmed with various options for the operator.
The programming fields are defined as “functions” that have “options”.
To make setup easier for the installer, the Controller’s programming is divided into two groups: basic and advanced. The basic programming group contains the functions commonly used in most slide gate installations. The advanced programming group contains functions less commonly used (i.e. dual gate stagger delay, maximum run timer, etc.).
Entering Programming Mode Enter programming mode by pressing the UP and DOWN buttons together for one second. While in programming mode the PROGRAM indicator will light.
Exiting Programming Mode Exit programming mode at any time by pressing the UP and DOWN buttons together. The Controller will automatically exit programming mode after three minutes of inactivity.
Programming Keystrokes (Typical Programming Method)
While in programming mode, press the UP or DOWN buttons to scroll through the programming functions. When the desired function is displayed press the ENTER button to display the currently set option for the function. When an option is displayed, the decimal points are lit.
To change the option, press and hold the ENTER button for 1 second. To indicate that an option is ready to be changed, the display will flash. While the display is flashing, press the UP or DOWN button to display the other options available for that function.
When the desired option is displayed, press the ENTER button to store it into memory. To select another function, press ENTER, UP, or DOWN.
Left or Right Hand Operation The factory default is for right hand operation (operator on right side of the driveway when viewed from the inside of the gate). For left hand installations, program the Controller for left hand operation.
Dual Gate Enable The factory default is for single gate operation. For dual gate operation, wire the two gate controllers together through the COMM LINK terminals (see Page 24) and enable dual gate operation with this programming step.
✓ NOTE: The Mid-travel Stop feature is disabled when dual gate operation is enabled for paired units.
Auto Close Timer The factory default turns off the Auto Close Timer. The timer can be set from 1 to 59 seconds and from 1 to 9 minutes. When the Auto Close Timer is set, after opening, the gate will wait for the length of the Auto Close Timer then close automatically.

Basic Controller Programming (Cont.)
Run Alarm and Pre-start Alarm The factory default is Run Alarm on and a 3-second Pre-start Alarm. The operator’s beeper will sound 3 seconds before the operator starts. The options are:
• Run Alarm Off and Pre-start Alarm Off
• Run Alarm On and Pre-start Alarm Off
• Run Alarm On and Pre-start Alarm On for 1-9 Seconds
Maximum Open Direction Current Setting To detect obstacles or mechanical problems with the gate, the operator monitors its motor current. If the open current load exceeds the programmed maximum load range number, the operator will stop, reverse a short distance, then stop again. The Auto Close Timer will be disabled, and another open request will be required to start the operator again. If after restart, the overload or an open obstacle happens again before the open limit is reached, the operator will lockout and sound the alarm.
To measure the motor load used during opening, while this function is being displayed, push and hold the OPEN button to fully open the gate.
During movement, the motor current will be displayed as a load number from 0 to 99. This number is useful for troubleshooting but not for setting the motor current. At the end of travel, a different number will flash. This number indicates the range above and below the average motor current during the run. Using the + and - buttons, set the programmed range number so that a minimal force (50-75 lbs.) will activate a reversal should an obstruction occur, but high enough to keep the gate moving under normal conditions without interruption.
Maximum Close Direction Current Setting To detect obstacles or mechanical problems with the gate, the operator monitors its motor current. If the close current load exceeds the programmed maximum load range number, the operator will stop, reverse, and travel to the full open position. Should a open obstruction input or an open direction inherent entrapment condition occur prior to the gate reaching the open limit, the operator will lockout and sound the continuous tone alarm. Another close request will be required to start the operator again. If after restart, the overload or a close obstacle happens again before the close limit is reached, the operator will lockout and sound the alarm. If the auto close timer is set, when the close obstruction input is cleared, the gate will close when the auto close timer expires.
To measure the motor load used during closing, while this function is being displayed, push and hold the CLOSE button to close the gate.
During movement, the motor current will be displayed as a load number from 0 to 99. This number is useful for troubleshooting but not used for setting the motor current. At the end of travel, a different number will flash.
This number indicates the range above and below the average motor current during the run. Using the + and - buttons, set the programmed range number so that a minimal force (50-75 lbs.) will activate a reversal should an obstruction occur, but high enough to keep the gate moving under normal conditions without interruption.

Obstruction detection type – b1, b2 B1 is a non-contact sensor such as a photo eye. B2 is a contact sensor such as an edge. This setting affects behavior in the closed direction obstruction detection. If a B2 detector is used, the operator will only allow an input 2 times to continue automatic closing until a closed limit switch is successfully made. The first input while closing will reverse the operator to full open and resume auto close timer behavior if selected. The second input will cause the operator to reverse slightly and lockout.
✓ NOTE: Jumper wire must be cut and DIP switches set to position 5 for the functions below to be active.
Open Obstruction input active – On, Off If a swing gate has no entrapment areas this may be selected as off. This must be on for slide gates.
Close obstruction input active – On, Off Single gates require this to be on. Paired gates can have this off if the other gate has it turned on.
✓ NOTE: The following parameters will only be displayed if Paired Mode is selected ON. The operators must be bot set as paired mode, powered up, and have the communication cable in place to complete this correctly. Obstruction inputs active selection for both operators must all be made from one side. Settings will be automatically transferred to the operator you are not in front of. Do not try to set individually
Remote open obstruction active – On, Off This is used to select if the other operator has the Open Obstruction input active.
Remote Close obstruction active – On, Off In paired mode it is only required to have 1 close device per pair of operators if the only entrapment zone is where the gates meet.
VS-GSLG Slide Gate Operator Installation Guide - 15 - P1255 Revision X6 11-04-2016
Advanced Controller Programming
Entering Advanced Programming Mode To access and program the Advanced Programming functions, for each programming session, Advanced Programming must be enabled.
After exiting programming, the Advanced Programming functions will be available on the programming display during the next programming session unless the operator has run 50 or more cycles. After that, Advanced Programming must be enabled again.
Maximum Run Time The factory default for the Maximum Run Time (MRT) is 99 seconds.
When the operator starts, a timer will begin counting. If a open or close limit is not reached or an obstacle or reversing input is not received before the timer expires, the operator will stop, the unit locks out and the alarm sounds. The timer can be set for 10 to 99 seconds, but should be left at 99 in most applications. Setting it too close to the actual run time may cause the time to expire with changing ambient temperature, gate conditions, etc…
If AC is present and an open or close limit is not reached or an obstacle or reversing input is not received before this timer exceeds MRT, the operator will stop, the unit locks out and the alarm sounds.
Single Button Input Setup This function is used for selecting the operation for single button controls and radio receivers.
The factory default sets the SINGLE input terminal so successive inputs will cycle the operator in OPEN-STOP-CLOSE-STOP order.
Alternately, the SINGLE input can be set to cause the gate to OPEN unless the gate is fully open. If the gate is fully open, the input will cause the gate to CLOSE.
Stagger Mode This function is used in dual gate installations only. The factory default sets the Stagger Mode to OFF. In dual gate installations the two operators communicate through the 3-wire COMM LINK interface.
When using the Stagger Mode, set one operator for delayed opening and the other operator for delayed closing. The Stagger Time programming function (see below) sets the length of the delay.
✓ NOTE: This function will only be displayed if dual gate operation is selected.
Stagger Delay Time This function is used in dual gate installations only.
