RAMSET Responsibilities of installers and technicians RAM 100 • 1000 • 5500 installation • Read and understand the instruction manual before attempting any installation. • Do not exceed the equipment specifications. • Insure a safe and proper installation. • Install this equipment in accordance with the Ul 325 specifications. • Make sure to eliminate any pinch points existing on the installation. (ie. Rollers, arms…etc.) • ramset gate operators must be installed by a trained technician.
RAMSET rior to installation, the following must be P observed: (per UL 325.56.8.4). a) Install the gate operator only when: 1. The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage Class of the gate, 2. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.22 m) above the ground to prevent a 2 1/4 inch (57.

RAMSET Loop SENSOR INSTALLATION RAM 100 • 1000 • 5500 Ramset Gate Operators should always be installed with non-contact sensing devices such as Loop Detectors, Photo Eyes or the equivalent. WARNING A non-contact sensor (photoelectric sensor or equivalent) and a contact sensor (edge device or equivalent) is required on each individual installation to comply with UL325. Reversing Loops on the ground floor, prevents gate from closing when vehicle is in loop area.
RAMSET Three pushbuttons are located under the dip switches for operation of the gate (see Figure 15). The opening, stop and closing buttons can be utilized to set limit switches and verify proper system operation when installing or servicing an operator. Opening Pressing this button will cause the gate to open. L.E.D.’s light up when Opening, Closing or Stopped Stop Pressing this button will cause the gate to stop moving.

Terminal strip Connections Terminal # 1 - Common: Low voltage common. Terminal # 2 - Rev loop: Stops the gate from closing. If the gate is open, it holds the gate open. If the gate is closing, it stops and reopens the gate. If the gate is closed, the gate will remain closed. The function can be altered with Dip Switch “C” 4 (see “Dip Switch Configuration”). Used with loop detectors, photo eyes, safety edges…etc. Becomes active with a closed contact to common. Terminal # 3 - Close: Closes the gate.
RAMSET Introduction: Ramset’s “Intelligate” Control Board works with Sliding, Swinging and Overhead vehicular gate operators. It is controlled by a programmable microprocessor that reads and precisely executes all functions of the Control Board. The Control Board is powered by a separate mounted 24 VAC transformer. This allows no necessary board modifications between 110 VAC and 220 VAC single-phase applications.
RAMSET Wire board connections 1,2) 24 VAC power. Connection from external transformer to power Control Board. JP3 - 3 Button: 1) Open 2) Stop 3) Close 4) Common Used with a 3-button station to open, stop, and close the gate. The open and close are normally open connections and the stop is a normally closed connection, remove jumper wire when connecting 3 button station. Common and stop are also used with a photo eye used to protect the backplane of the operators.
