See Figure 11.
NO ACCESSORY EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE INSTALLED
ABOVE THE POWER SWITCH HANDY BOX EXCEPT A
SINGLE CONTACT RADIO RECEIVER!
If local electrical codes permit, use the operator's pedestal for mounting
accessory components. Otherwise, install the accessory equipment in
an appropriate electrical box.
The command inputs on the RSX1000 require a switch closure to
COMMON of less than 100 OHMS resistance and for more than 100
milliseconds duration. To familiarize yourself with the input functions
reference the Wiring Diagram on page 23 and the chart on Pages 19 and
20. A three push button station can be wired in to provide full control
of all command functions.
WIRING A 3-BUTTON STATION
NOTE: Three button
stations may be
ordered with the
STOP button as
Normally Open (NO)
or Normally Closed
(NC). The RSX1000
will operate with a
NORMALLY
OPEN Stop button
ONLY.
See Figure 12 for
instructions on wiring
a three button station.
BI-PARTING (MASTER/SLAVE) APPLICATION
Two RSX1000 units in a bi-parting situation (one wired right-hand and
one wired left hand, see Figure 17, page 15) can be configured to
operate in a synchronous manner two gate sections that make up a
single gate. The units can be wired together to operate as one system,
with one unit controlling the movement of both. Additionally, the
installer can customize the installation of the external entrapment
protection devices. These devices can be wired to the primary
(controlling) operator or alternately to the individual units as the
situation dictates or the end user requires.
When an external entrapment protection device is wired to the primary
unit (such as would be recommended for a photoeye across the entire
opening) both units will react to the detection of an obstruction,
regardless of the location of the obstruction. An edge device (or
similar) protecting an entrapment zone particular to say, the secondary
unit, could be wired to that unit only and would react individually to the
detection of an obstruction. Synchronous movement would resume
once the obstruction is cleared and an open or close command is
received by the primary operator.
Choose one of the operators to be the Primary (Master) and the other to
be the Secondary (Slave). Route all of the Control Wiring to the
Primary operator first. This will prevent grounding loop problems
which can occur when more than one COMMON or ground wire is
attached between separate operators. All accessory equipment should
be wired to the Primary operator.
To obtain Bi-Parting (Synchronous) operation (4 Steps):
1. Wire the Primary Operator Terminal #14 to Terminal #6 in the
Secondary Operator, see Figure 13 above.
2. Wire the Primary Operator Terminal #15 to Terminal #7 in the
Secondary Operator, see Figure 13 above.
3. Place the Master/Slave Jumper on the Primary Operator motor
control board to the primary position. See Figure 13a, below.
4. Place the Master/Slave Jumper on the Secondary Operator motor
control board to the secondary position. See Figure 13a, below.

WARNING!
RISK OF ENTRAPMENT!
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH:
LOCATE KEYPAD, CARD READER, KEY SWITCH OR
SIMILAR ENTRY DEVICES IN A LOCATION WHERE A
USER CAN NOT REACH THROUGH THE GATE OR
FENCE TO ACTIVATE THE GATE OPERATOR. THE
RECOMMENDED DISTANCE BETWEEN THE GATE OR
FENCE AND ACCESSORY SWITCH IS 10 FEET.
