DIP Switches
Main DIP Switch Settings (MODES)
DIP Switch #1 - Soft Start/Stop
The Soft Start/Stop feature slowly starts the gate
as it begins to open and slows the gate as it comes
to the closed position. This saves wear and tear on
the gate and gate opener system.
DIP Switch #2 - Warning Buzzer
The Warning Buzzer alerts you when the gate
opener is beginning to either open or close the
gate. It sounds for the first 2 seconds in each
direction. It also sounds a warning when the gate
obstructs two times in one cycle. Switching this to
OFF only disables the open and close warning not
the obstruction warning.
DIP Switch #3 - Auto-Close
With the Auto-Close switch in the OFF position
the gate will remain open until it receives another
signal from an activation device such as a
transmitter, keypad, or push button control. With
the Auto-Close switch in the ON position the gate
opener will automatically close the gate. The time
the gate will remain open is determined using DIP
Switches #6 and #7.
DIP Switch #4 - Push/Pull-to-Open
If your gate opens into the property the DIP
Switch is set to the OFF position (factory setting).
If your gate opens out from the property the DIP
Switch must be set to the ON position. NOTE: if
you have a Push-to-Open gate application you will
need a Push-to-Open bracket (see Push-to-Open
Instructions on page 30).
DIP Switch #5 - B2/D1 Mode
This DIP Switch must remain in the OFF position
unless the gate opener is going to be used by a
guard or gate attendant, who can only open the
gate when constant pressure is applied to a push
button control device.
DIP Switches #6 and #7
The combination of these two switches determines
the amount of time the gate will remain open
when DIP Switch #3 is set to the ON position.
