Controls and Accessory Installation

See wiring diagram for more information.  See Wiring Specifications on p. 9 for wiring
distances and wire gauge information.

All inputs are normally open and momentary, except the stop (NC), and emergency close and
emergency open (constant pressure).  The following instructions are based upon UL 325, dated March
of 1999 and include recommendations for significant increase in safety.

We strongly recommend that you follow the UL guidelines presented throughout the manual.
Installation device instructions – always follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer when
installing and adjusting any control device.  If these instructions are contrary to the advice given here,
call for assistance.

WARNING

All controls that are to be used to operate the gate system must be installed where the user
cannot touch the gate while operating the controls.  Also, always install the controls where the
user has full view of gate operation.

This input is for vehicles only and does not

provide UL secondary safety for persons.  This 

functions as an wireless open unless on the 

close limit where it is defeated - thus preventing

vehicles from entering freely.

 

These are constant pressure inputs that

bypass the processor and may be used only

in an emergency if the processor fails.

Note left/right switch does not effect direction.

This is a normally closed input and the operator

safeties always be used for both 

the open and close directions.  

Use safety edges. In 

the 

any case,
