4.3 Loop Detector Wiring
•
Loop detector wiring is shown for DoorKing
plug-in loop detectors. If other loop detectors are
used, refer to the installation instructions supplied
with those detectors for wiring instructions.
•
If other detectors are used, use a separate power
supply to power these detectors.
•
Loop layout shown is for a typical swing gate
application with two-way traffic, or one-way exit
only
traffic.

LOOP 1
To help protect the operator from accidentally closing on vehicles
in the gate’s path, DoorKing highly recommends that loops and
loop detectors be installed. Loops are laid underneath, cut into
asphalt or concrete driveways or buried beneath gravel and earth
driveways. A loop detection system will sense a vehicle like a
metal detector and send a signal to the gate operator preventing
the gate from automatically opening or closing on a vehicle
when it is in the gate’s path. DoorKing recommends that a
licensed installer perform this work.

Relay
Reverse Loops
are placed on
each side of the gate to prevent the gate
from closing on a vehicle in the gate’s
path. They will stop or reverse the
cycling of the gate while a vehicle is in
or near the gate’s pathway.
Shadow Loop
will
ONLY HOLD
the
main gates in the
Full Open Position
when
a vehicle is on the shadow loop. However,
it
WILL NOT stop or reverse
the main
gates once they start to close.
Automatic Exit Loop
Automatically opens the gate for exiting
vehicles without having to use a transmitter or
keypad. The exit loop can be placed a minimum of 4
feet away from the reverse loop or far enough away from
the gate so the gate has started opening or even completely
opened by the time you drive up to it (Free exit).
