Gate Operation
Open Button
Opens the gate. If the Controller is programmed to stop
opening the gate at mid-travel, a constant press of the
OPEN
button will override the Mid-travel Stop and completely open
the gate. If the Auto Close Timer is set, it will be suspended
until the
OPEN
button is released.
Close Button
Closes the gate if the gate is open. Also closes the gate if
the gate is in the process of opening.
Stop Button
Stops the gate from opening or closing at any time.
Single Input
Opens the gate if it’s closed and closes the gate if it’s open
(open-close programming option). Activating the input while
the gate is moving will reverse the gate.
Can be programmed to stop the gate while the gate is
moving (open-stop-close programming option).
Fire Department Input
Fully opens the gate when the input is activated. Overrides
the Mid-travel Stop and Auto Close Timer (if either is
programmed for the gate). The gate will lockout in the open
position without sounding the alarm. Press the
STOP
button
to release the lockout.
Open Input
Functions the same as the
OPEN
button.
Open Obstruction
While the gate is opening, any open obstruction signal will
cause the gate to stop, reverse a short distance, and then
stop again. The Auto Close Timer will be disabled, and a
renewed input will be required to start the gate again. Should
the gate be restarted and the obstacle signal occur again
prior to reaching a limit, the gate will stop again, lockout,
and sound the emergency alarm.
Close Obstruction
While the gate is closing, any close obstruction signal
will cause the gate to stop, reverse, and travel to the full
open position. Should a open obstruction input or an open
direction inherent entrapment condition occur prior to the
gate reaching the open limit, the operator will lockout and
sound the continuous tone alarm. Another close request
will be required to start the operator again. If after restart,
the overload or a close obstacle happens again before the
close limit is reached, the operator will lockout and sound
the alarm. If the auto close timer is set, when the close
obstruction input is cleared, the gate will close when the
auto close timer expires.
Reverse Input
If the reverse input is triggered while the gate is closing, the
gate will reverse to the full open position. If the Auto Close
Timer is set, when the reverse input is cleared, the gate will
close when the Auto Close Timer expires.
Open Loop
Functions the same as the
OPEN
button.
Reverse Loop
Functions the same as the reverse input.
Shadow/Reset Loop
Holds the gate fully open or fully closed while triggered.
If open, the gate closes immediately when cleared if
Anti-tailgate is enabled.
Operation Indications
During normal operation, the Controller’s displays will
indicate current operating conditions and status.
Power-up Display
When the Controller powers up, dashes will show on the
display, then the fi rmware version number, then the gate
type (SL for slide and swing gates).
Exiting programming restarts the Controller. The power-up
display will show upon the restart.
Idle Condition
While the Controller is idling, waiting for a command, the
display will show circulating dashes.
Last Gate Position/Condition
When the gate moves or stops, the display will show the
status for up to one minute.

Pre-start Delay
During the pre-start delay, the display will countdown the
number of seconds remaining before the operator starts.
Reverse Delay
If the gate travel direction is reversed from a user activation
or reversing device, and a reverse delay is set, the display
will count down the delay time in seconds before the
operator restarts.
Run Timer
While the gate is opening or closing, the number of seconds
running time is displayed.
