A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a commercial location or building such as a multi-family housing unit (five or more single family units) hotel, garages, retail store or other building servicing the general public.
Gate Construction Vehicular gates should be constructed and installed in accordance with ASTM F2200; Standard Specification for Automated Vehicular Gate Construction. For a copy of this standard, contact ASTM directly at 610-832-9585; service@astm.org; or www.astm.org. Important Safety Instructions WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury or death: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 2. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children. 3.
• For gate operators utilizing contact sensors: 1. One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exist, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate. 2. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vehicular vertical lift gate. 3. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the pinch point of a vehicular vertical pivot gate. 4.
Swing Gate Requirements 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 in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate. (ref. UL325 56.8.4.
Swing Gate Protection C Non-contact Sensor Minimizes the potential of the gate closing on vehicular or other traffic that loops cannot sense. Reverse Loop Minimizes the potential of the gate closing when a vehicle is present. Number and placement of loops is dependent on the application. D C D Shadow Loop Provides a hold open command to the operator(s) only if the gate(s) are at the full open position. D Warning Signs Permanently mounted and easily visible from either side of the gate.
Glossary GATE - A moving barrier such as a swinging, sliding, raising, lowering, or the like, barrier, that is a stand-alone passage barrier or is that portion of a wall or fence system that controls entrance and/or egress by persons or vehicles and completes the perimeter of a defined area. RESIDENTIAL VEHICULAR GATE OPERATOR – CLASS I - A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a home of one-to four single family dwelling, or garage or parking area associated therewith.
SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION Removing Actuator Cover Remove 3 screws and slide cover off. Sa mp le Du In al Ga st te a Op ll era a tor tio s n Prior to beginning the installation of the swing gate operator, we suggest that you become familiar with the instructions, illustrations, and wiring guide-lines in this manual. This will help insure that your installation is performed in an efficient and professional manner.
1.2 Gate “Opens to the Inside” Bracket Locations Front Bracket Pivot Point Rear Bracket Pivot Point 46 3/4” Closed Position Front Bracket 3 1/8” Do not install the actuator in fully extended (Bottomed out) position. This will damage the arm. Closed Position Rear Bracket (Cover Off) Gate Hinge Pivot Point 7” 7” Mechanically Attaching Brackets to Surfaces When mounting brackets with bolts 90° to the wall and/or gate, weld reinforcing steel plates to the brackets. Completely weld around brackets.
1.3 Gate “Opens to the Outside” Bracket Locations Mechanically Attaching Brackets to Surfaces When mounting brackets with bolts to the wall and/or gate, weld reinforcing steel plates to the brackets. Completely weld around brackets. The brackets must be perpendicular to the wall and/or gate and horizontally level.
1.4 Mounting Actuator Arm Gate must be in good working condition before the actuator arm can be installed. Determine what direction the actuator arm will open the gate “Open to the Inside” or “Open to the Outside”(See previous 2 pages). Gate Support Bar A support bar that spans the entire length of the gate must be installed to keep the pickets from bending.
1.5 Mounting Control Box with Conduit Position the control box on the wall, close enough to the actuator arm so the primary actuator cable can be easily routed inside the box. Secure the control box to the wall with appropriate hardware (not included). Control box has predrilled mounting holes. All power and control wires should be routed to control box in conduits with sweeps. Never run high voltage and low voltage wires in the same conduit, keep them in separate conduits.
SECTION 2 - WIRING Before attempting to connect any wiring to the control box, be sure that the circuit breaker in the electrical panel is in the OFF position. Permanent wiring must be installed to the control box as required by local electrical codes. It is recommended that a licensed electrical contractor perform this work.
2.2 Secondary Entrapment Protection Wiring In addition to the inherent reversing sensor system, this operator has provisions for the connection of a non-contact (type B1) secondary entrapment protection device. Entrapment protection devices are required to reduce the risk of injury. Install sensors where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists while gate is moving. 1 2 3 4 5 6 PHOTO OPEN (Photo Cell) Stops gate movement in the open cycle.
2.3 Main Terminal Description ON 1 2 3 4 SW 2 ON • Switch 1 OFF, Switch 2 OFF: Relay activates when gate is OPEN. 1 2 3 4 ON 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 SW 2 NO • Switch 1 OFF, Switch 2 ON: Relay activates when gate is OPEN, OPENING or CLOSING. • Switch 1 ON, Switch 2 OFF: Relay activates when gate is OPEN or OPENING. • Switch 1 ON, Switch 2 ON: Relay activates when gate is OPENING or CLOSING. SW 1 • lf SW 1, switch 3 is ON, this input is identical to Single Button Activation.
2.4 Main Terminal Wiring Controls must be far enough from the gate so that the user is prevented from coming in contact with the gate while operating the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls should have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. When installing electrical equipment make certain all wiring complies with local code requirements. Do not power any control devices from the circuit board other than low voltage devices.
2.5 Loop Detector Wiring To protect the operator from accidentally closing on vehicles in the gate’s path, a series of loop detectors must be installed. Loops are laid underneath, cut into asphalt or concrete driveways or buried beneath gravel and earth driveways. A loop detection system will sense a vehicle like a metal detector and send a signal to the gate operator preventing the gate from automatically closing on a vehicle when it is in the gate’s swing path.
2.6 High Voltage Wiring and Battery Connection CAUTION 12 Volt 3 Amp/Hr Battery Reset Button Do not connect the battery to the circuit board until power is needed to test the actuator arm. 12 Volt 3 Amp/Hr Battery CONTROL BOX MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED!! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 AC Power Switch 4302 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 RED Alarm Reset RED 24V 2 3 4 BLK 115V WHT 1 Chassis Ground DANGER After power has been connected, activate the actuator arm by pressing the key switch button.
SECTION 3 - ADJUSTMENTS The switch settings and adjustments in this section should be made after your installation and wiring to the operator(s) is complete. Whenever any programming or switch setting on the control board are changed, press the reset switch for new settings to take effect. 3.1 Circuit Board Adjustments Loop Detector Loop Detector 9410 9409 Reset Switch Press reset switch to activate changed control board settings.

3.3 Limit Sensor Adjustments The limit sensors on the actuator can be adjusted to control the travel of the gate and to precisely set the full open and full closed position of the gate. This feature is especially useful in applications where the gate opens partially, such as on a curved driveway. Power to the circuit board must be ON when adjusting the limit switches. A With actuator cover removed, manually un-lock actuator arm with allen wrench.
• Example 2 - If the gate is closing and an entrapment protection device is activated, the gate will either stop or reverse and run back to the open position, depending upon if the secondary or inherent device was activated. The automatic close timer will not close the gate. • Example 3 - Vehicle arrives at open loop and gate runs towards the open position. The inherent entrapment protection is activated. The gate reverses and runs back to the closed position.
SECTION 4 - MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Inspection and service of this gate operator by a qualified technician should be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. High cycle usage may require more frequent service checks. 4.1 Maintenance When servicing the gate operator, always check any secondary (external) reversing devices (loops, photo eyes, etc.) for proper operation.
Symptom Actuator(s) will not run. Power LED is ON. Gate opens a short distance, then stops and reverses. Gate opens but will not close. Gate closes but will not open. Possible Solution(s) • Momentarily jumper terminal 1 to terminal 2. If the input LED does not come ON, check the terminal strip or replace the circuit board. If LED does come ON, proceed to next steps. • Check the fuses. • Remove the circuit board.
4.3 Diagnostics Check Have the following diagnostic tools available: VOM meter with minimum voltage memory or min-max range to check voltage and continuity. Meg-ohm meter capable of checking up to 500 megohms of resistance to properly check ground loop integrity. A malfunction can be isolated to one of the following: • Gate Operator • Loop System • Keying Devices. Disconnect all external inputs to the circuit board. 1. Check the input indicator LED’s.
