CHECK OF THE INDICATOR LAMPS HAS BEEN COMPLETED.
IF THE INDICATOR TEST PERFORMED SATISFACTORILY,
TURN OFF THE AC POWER SWITCH AT THE LP1000
CONTROL BOX AND RECONNECT THE WHITE HIGH
VOLTAGE HARNESS CONNECTOR TO THE CONTROL
BOARD. RESET THE SWITCH SELECTABLE OPTIONS (S1,
S2, S3) ACCORDING TO FUNCTION DESIRED (SEE PAGE 14
AND 15).
FINAL SETTING OF THE LIMIT SWITCHES
If the gate stops short of being fully open or closed or if it bangs against
the end stops, turn off the main power and reset the appropriate limit
switch nut. Each slot on the limit nuts represents about 1" of gate
travel. The nuts should only have to be turned one or two slots in either
direction to fine tune the gate's limits of travel. When final adjustment
has been completed, insure that the detent plate is firmly seated in the
slots. Review Figure 18, Page 13.
SETTING THE CLOSE TIMER
To adjust the amount of time the close timer will hold the gate open,
use the trimmer potentiometer on the controller board. Review Figure
21, Page 14.
Close timer delay is adjustable between 2 and 60 seconds. Turning the
potentiometer clockwise increases the delay; turning it
counterclockwise decreases the delay.

The obstruction detection sensitivity was preset before turning on the
main power to prevent the operator from "self-tripping" during testing.
To set the OPEN sensitivity, start the gate in motion in the Open
direction and turn the overload potentiometer counterclockwise until
the gate stops and reverses. Then back the potentiometer off 10
degrees in the clockwise direction. Review Figure 19, Page 14.
Repeat for the Close sensitivity.
CAUTION:
During this process the alarm will sound if the overload
sensor is activated two sequential times before the gate reaches a limit
(open or close). To reset the alarm sensor use constant pressure on a
control button connected to the OPEN or CLOSE input and move the
gate to a fully open or closed position or turn off and restore the power
to the operator.
Restart the gate and give the leading edge a firm blow with the heal of
your palm. Don't stand directly in the gate's path while testing the
obstruction sensitivity. The obstruction detection should respond
immediately to the blow, the gate will pause and reverse approximately
two inches. The overload potentiometer must be adjusted to the most
sensitive setting possible without causing "self-tripping" due to the
gate's inherent friction or to variations in the track. Try readjusting the
potentiometer several times by small increments, testing the gate in
both directions of travel, until you are satisfied.
TO THE END USER:
Test your obstruction detection sensitivity on a
monthly basis and have a qualified technician readjust for maximum
sensitivity if necessary.
