When installing a dual-operator system, the following must be adhered to:
•
An electrical conduit for interconnecting wires must span between the two operators. The primary
-
secondary communication wires and any low voltage control wires must be installed in a conduit
that is separate from the high voltage power wires. Refer to
“Figure 18. Primary and Secondary
.
•
Complete the installation of both operators as separate machines and verify that their basic functions
are correct as solo operators before interconnecting them.
•
External control inputs, vehicle detectors and entrapment protection sensors may be connected to
either gate operator without regard to preference.
•
Be sure both operators are running the same software version. The software version is available on
the display by pressing the RESET button on the operator
