9. Battery charging indicator:
Alarm:
None.
‘CHARGING’ Led (Red):
vary (see description below)
• Constantly ON: The charging circuit is in fast charge mode. The battery is being charge with a
constant current (~ Amp)
• 2 blinks per second: Soak charge mode. The charger has completed fast charge mode and
the battery has reached the desired voltage (~4. Volts). The charger circuit will remain at this
stage for a maximum of 2 hours then switch to float charge mode.
• blink per 2 seconds: Float charge mode. The battery has reached full capacity; a constant volt
age is applied to keep the battery at fully charged capacity. (~3.8 Volts)
• OFF: Battery is not being charge. This led will be OFF if there is no transformer or
solar panel power.
10. Low Battery indicators:
Alarm:
beep every 0 seconds (Idle state only)
‘STATUS’ Led:
blink every 0 seconds (Idle state only)
‘CHARGING’ Led:
Rapid pulses every second.
• Operator will continue to operator as normal. However, the battery will need to be charged.
Low battery indicator will only be activated while gate is idle.
• While in idle state and the battery voltage drop below .4 volts (this voltage is temperature
compensated) the unit will enter low battery indicator mode as described above. The operator
will ‘exit’ low battery indicator mode when the voltage is above 2Volts.
11. Receiver/RF indicators:
Alarm:
None
‘RECEIVER’ Led:
blinking or OFF.
• When the ‘RECEIVER’ led is blinking, the controller is receiving ‘GTO scheme’ 38 MHz
signal from the receiver. This indicates that the transmitter and receiver are working properly.
However, if the transmitter is not being pressed and the ‘RECEIVER’ led is blinking, this
indicates that there is significant interference (i.e. A stuck transmitter sending out
unwanted signal).
• The ‘RECEIVER’ led is normally off if the transmitter is not pressed/transmitting.
B. LED INDICATORS ON NON-WORKING OPENER:
In the following modes, the operator is not functional. Power-on reset is required to return the operator
to normal operation after the problem has been corrected.
1. Master arm limit switch error indicators: Error Code ‘1’
Alarm:
beep with 2 seconds pause.
‘STATUS’ Led:
blink with 2 seconds pause.
• The limit switch from the master arm is not detected. This typically indicates that the master
arm is not connected or both the normally open (brown wire) and the normally close (orange
wire) are shorted to common/ground.
2. Slave arm limit switch error indicators: Error Code ‘2’
Alarm:
2 beeps with 2 seconds pause.
‘STATUS’ Led:
2 blinks with 2 seconds pause.
• The limit switch from the slave arm is not detected. This typically indicates that both the nor
mally open (brown wire) and the normally close (orange wire) are shorted to common/ground.
Note: If no slave arm is connected, the control board will automatically switch to single
mode operation.
• After 2 seconds of extending and the retracted limit switch still being activated (Stuck limit
switch).
