BATTERY CHECKOUT

When the batteries become weak the gate will begin to run 
noticeably slower. 

(

NOTE:

 Batteries should only be checked when 

you are sure they have had adequate time to fully charge.)

 Turn 

off the ac power and run gate for 5 to 10 cycles while observing 
low battery indicator LED D12. If LED 12 comes ON, batteries are 
too weak to function properly. If LED 12 does not light, then 
voltage should be checked as they still maybe near failure. 
Correct voltage is approximately 25.5 Vdc. 

(

NOTE:

 If LED D12 

does light, gate will open to conserve batteries in this test or in a 
real power loss, even if mode switch 8 on S2 is off.)

 Return of ac 

power will clear low battery indicator. Correct charge voltage is 
27.5 Vdc with batteries not connected (Set with R63, shown on 
the Control Board Layout page).
