LEFT- OR RIGHT-HAND INSTALLATIONS
The operator can be configured for left- or right-hand gate installations.
See Figure 16. On a normal drive installation, when standing inside the
gate and facing outwards, if the operator is on the right side of the gate,
it's a right-hand installation. If the operator is on the left side of the
gate, it's a left-hand installation.
The operator is shipped from the factory configured for left-hand
installations. If it is installed in a left-hand installation, make sure the
main power switch on top of the control box is off and locate the 8-pin,
motor wire connector in the upper left corner of the controller board.
See Figure 17.
Pinch the locking tabs on the two sides of the connector and remove it
from the connector labeled, "RIGHT". Then plug it into the connector
labeled, "LEFT".
Locate the small, black slider switch midway down the left side of the
controller board. Switch it to the position labeled, "LEFTHAND". The
operator is now configured for a lefthand installation.
SETTING THE LIMIT SWITCHES
SETTING THE LIMIT SWITCHES FOR LEFT-HAND
OPERATION
USE CAUTION! MAKE SURE THE POWER SWITCH IS
TURNED OFF AT THE OPERATOR.
Identify the limit nut detent plate and the limit nuts. See Figure
18. Depress the limit nut plate and rotate the limit nuts until
they are close to touching each other near the center of the
threaded area on the limit nut shaft.
Unlock the MANUAL OPEN on the side of the operator. The
gate should be able to move freely. Manually push the gate to
the desired open position. Push down the limit nut detent plate
SWITCH 1 - OBSTRUCTION DETECTION
• Switch 1 OFF
Open Direction - The gate will stop, move in the close
direction for 1/2 second and park.
Close Direction - The gate will stop, move in the open
direction for 1/2 second and park.
SWITCH 2 - CLOSE TIMER ENABLE SELECT
•
Switch 2 OFF (CLOSE TIMER NOT ENABLED)
When the Close Timer is not enabled, the gate will open and
park. A CLOSE or an ALTERNATE command must then be
issued to close the gate. This mode is used for “COMMAND
OPEN/COMMAND CLOSE” installations.
•
Switch 2 ON (CLOSE TIMER ENABLED)
With the Close Timer enabled, the gate, when fully open, will
always time-out and close. A continuous signal present on
the HOLD OPEN or the SAFETY input will inhibit and reset
the Close Timer and prevent the gate from timing out until
the signal is not longer present. (See SETTING THE CLOSE
TIMER, P. 18)
SWITCH 3 - ON BOARD RELAY TRIGGER MODE SELECT
•
Switch 3 OFF (ALARM RELAY MODE)
In this mode, the On Board Relay will be triggered by any
one of two alarm conditions:
1. Obstruction has been detected.
2. Maximum Run Timer has timed-out
•
Switch 3 ON (GATE-IN-MOTION RELAY MODE)
The On Board Relay will be triggered whenever the gate
moves off either limit switch and will remain energized until
the gate arrives at another limit switch. By wiring the power
source for a flashing light or an audible buzzer across
terminals RELAY COMMON and RELAY N.O., the operator
will give a warning whenever the gate is in motion.
By using the terminals RELAY COMMON and RELAY N.C.,
the On Board Relay can also be used in conjunction with a
magnetic gate lock. The On Board Relay will be energized
1/4 second before the motor begins moving the gate,
thereby giving the magnetic lock time to release.
