IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING To reduce the risk of injury: READ THE FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS. DO NOT EVEN THINK OF STARTING UNTIL YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE DIRECTIONS. IF THERE IS SOMETHING YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND CALL US. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children. Always keep people and objects away from the gate. No one should cross the path of the moving gate. This operator must be tested monthly.
INSTALL THE GATE OPERATOR ONLY WHEN YOU HAVE READ THE FOLLOWING: *Confirm that the gate operator being installed is appropriate for the application. *Confirm that the gate is designed and built according to current published industry standards. *Confirm that all appropriate safety features and safety accessory devices are being incorporated, including both primary and secondary entrapment protection devices. *Make sure that the gate works freely before installing the operator.
DIFFERENT UL 325 CLASS TYPES Class one: Residential A vehicle gate operator intended for use at a home of one to four single family dwellings, garages or parking area. Class Two: Commercial or General Public Access A vehicular gate operator intended for use at a commercial location or building such as a multi-family housing unit (five or more single family units), hotel, garages, retail stores, other buildings servicing the general public.

TYPICAL LOOP LAYOUT 8 FT SAFETY LOOP GATE TRACK TWISTED 6 TURNS PER FOOT 1 1/2 IN 4 FT SAFETY LOOP EXIT LOOP 4 FT GATE OPERATOR 1/4 IN 8 FT GATE 4 FT 4 FT WIRED IN SERIES 4 FT OUT WHEN USED This is a normal loop layout. Remember when connecting to an All-O-Matic circuit board you use the normally closed contacts for your safety loop detector and normally open contacts from the exit loop.
GENERAL LOOP INSTALLATION GUIDELINES The following loop installation guidelines are for installing typical driveway loops for access control applications (i.e. parking gates, sliding gates, swing gates etc...) Always consult withl loop detector manufacturers for specific equipment guidelines. This will confirm that the proper configuration and installation techniques are properly applied for your application. Useful information about inductive loops: A.
ACCESSORY CONNECTIONS The circuit board 12 or 24VDC output provides up to 500 mAmps of power for accessories. More than two or three accessories will require a separate power supply. NOTE: 12 or 24VDC Accessories only.
MULTIPLE SAFETY DEVICES CONNECTIONS Multiple SAFETY devices installed together must be connected “in series”. Locate the white loop rack safety wire and connect with common wire of second device. Dry contact (N.C.) from second device goes to SAFETY on the circuit board. Before installing the accessory devices, remove the wire jumper from the SAFETY position on the control board.
® LPR-1 LOOP RACK INATALLATION This is a typical loop configuration for a gated driveway. Remember when connecting to an All-O-Matic circuit board the safety (reverse) uses normally closed contacts from the loop detector, the wire jumper from the safety connector needs to be removed when a safety loop is inatalled. You must twist your wires from your exit point of the saw cut all the way to the loop detectors, no exceptions.

MASTER/SLAVE CONNECTION Before connecting master/slave gate operators together, test and adjust the limit switches and the ERDs for each operator as “stand alone” machines. All accessories must be installed on the master board, no exception. See page 22 for dip switch settings. Use a two wire shielded cable and run it through a UL listed conduit for master/slave connection. Follow the wiring diagram as shown below. Master Board Slave Board +.....................Positive to Positive...................+ -.
MAGNETIC/SOLENOID LOCK CONNECTIONS Magnetic lock installation requires a step down transformer with appropriate voltage for the specific lock accessory. Operator will provide a 120VAC outlet for the step down transformer. Connections: Plug the lock device transformer to the 120VAC outlet plug.
RADIO RECEIVER CONNECTIONS 4 wire receiver: connect the two relay wires to 1 & 2 terminals. Black negative wire to terminal 1 and Red positive wire to terminal 3 on receiver strip outside control box as shown below. 1AM 9 1001 829B R616 829B R616 IOR 0618 IOR 0618 829B R616 145 710 KE.

TIMER ADJUSTMENT TIMER ON: Timer to close, can be set from 1 to 60 seconds. TIMER OFF: Gate operation is push button to open, push button to close. TO OVERRIDE THE TIMER: Turn the RADIO switch to the “ON” position. This will allow the radio receiver to close the gate before the timer. TIMER ADJUSTMENT Turn potentiometer counter clockwise for more time. 0 60 Sec Sec Turn potentiometer clockwise for less time. 0 60 Sec Sec .
DIP SWITCH FUNCTIONS OFF 1 TIMER switch “ON” activates the TIMER. See page 21 for details 2 . 3 4 RADIO RADIO switch “ON” allows the radio receiver to override the timer.

During a cycle the first signal stops gate, a second signal reverses gate.
SOLAR PANEL CONNECTION The solar panel input will take a 12VDC panel or two 12VDC panels wired in sires to make 24VDC . The charging circuit is limited by 1 Amp max. NOTE: For information on what solar panel to use on any other type of installation call ALL O MATIC for Assistance. 802 B 360G ON 20M 1001 1001 1001 3002 2402 6040 DR127-330 43CL07 E MAAF S21B 1212 C8RB LMC64 82AIM .
LED DIAGNOSTICS AC/PWR ON: Will be lit when AC power is ON. M/S LINK: Will be lit when master/slave communication is active. ALARM: Two states. 1st state: LED will blink(horn will beep also) every 30 seconds when battery is low, bad or disconnected. 2nd state: LED will turn on for 5 minutes when operator goes on shut down mode do to the gate hitting an obstruction(E.R.D.). Also, the horn will go off for 5 minutes. LOW BATTERY: Three states. 1st state: LED will be on solid when battery is low.
EMERGENCY RELEASE Procedures to open gate for SL-90DC. 1. Turn power OFF. 2. Our gear box has a 15 to 1 ratio so it allows you to push gate open when set in fail safe mode.
