Alarms and Signals
Power Loss to Gate
If the Detector is powered by an attached Diverter Gate, and has healthy C-cells
installed, it will monitor the power it receives from the Gate and sound a
continuous audio alarm if the Gate stops supplying power. This helps guard
against use after power interruption or accidental disconnection of power to the
Gate (i.e., the power cord becoming unplugged). To stop the alarm, simply reset
the Detector by turning it off and back on again. Restore power to the Gate and
check that the Gate power indicator light is on before resuming operation. If the
Detector is operated without C-cells, when power is interrupted, the Detector's
bar graph LEDs go out, and there is no alarm.
Gate Latch Hook Position Alarm
If the Gate Latch Hook is manually moved out of position, an alarm will
continuously sound to warn that fish will be diverted to the wrong side. Either
toggle the direction switch or manually move the Latch Hook back to its proper
position to cure the problem.
Odd situations
On Detectors with Power Connectors that are connected to a Gate via the
Electronics Connector; if the power supply is connected to the Detector instead
of the Gate, it will cause the LEDs on the gate to be ON even with the Gate
Power switch is in the OFF position. No harm will be done, but the gate will not
be functional until the power is disconnected from the detector and is properly
connected to the Gate.
Adjustments
Gate Latch Bar Stop
There is only one user adjustable mechanism in the Detector and Gate. That is
the stop screw for the Latch Bar. When the Latch Hook is toggled to the latched
position on one side, it should move the Latch Bar off the stop screw about 1/32"
o 1/16”. Move the latch hook back and forth to see the amount of play. If the
play is more than 1/16 of an inch or less than 1/32 of an inch, then the stop
screw needs adjusting. The stop screw is adjusted by loosening the stop nut with
a 5/16” socket wrench and turning the screw either in or out with a 7/64” hex key.
One revolution of the hex key will move the latch bar approximately 1/16” off of
