DO NOT ALLOW any access control devices to be mounted within 6 feet of the moving gate or in such
a way that someone could reach their hand or arm through the gate to activate it.
SAFETY & HELPFUL INFORMATION
SHIELD ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION
The Genesis controller is equipped with Type “A” inherent obstruction sensing and has 6 monitored entrap-
ment inputs. The monitored inputs will be initially programmed at factory but are field selectable. There are
edge and beam inputs for both “Open” and “Close” directions.
Please note that a minimum of one “open” and
one “close” approved monitored entrapment device must be present along with one Type “A” device
for the gate operator to function.
There are 2 programmable monitored inputs for open or close, and
either can be edge or beam. All inputs are capable of 10K or 2-wire pulse, and will be programmable in the
field. Any additional entrapment areas must be protected in a similar way with approved monitored devices.
However, if you are using NON-MONTORED “Reversing” equipment, you will need to contact Auto-
Gate for a PASSCODE to
put your GENESIS board in a NON-MONTIROED state for operation.
For sites requiring more ridged security requirements and alternative connections and configurations with a
Program Logic Board (PLC) or similar contact AutoGate for assistance.
All areas of the moving vertical pivot gate panel from the bottom of the gate to the top of the gate or a mini-
mum of 1.83 m (72 in) above grade, whichever is less, that pass by a fixed stationary object, and in the area
of the adjacent fence that the gate covers
during the travel of the gate, shall be designed, guarded or
screened to prevent a 57 mm (2-1/4 in) diameter sphere from passing through such areas.
The Shield is equipped with one (1) INTERNAL means of entrapment sensing device. AutoGate highly rec-
ommends the use of additional EXTERNAL entrapment sensing devices. Both INTERNAL and EXTERNAL
are listed below.
Type B1 (non-contact) devices
Open or Opening
Your Vertical Pivot operator requires a minimum of ONE OPEN external obstruct and ONE CLOSED ion device to be
wired to the Genesis Control board to operate. You may
use any approved device listed below. The face and the
throat area are required to be protected per UL325 7th
edition.
The Genesis board supports use of a maxi-
mum of four type B1 devices.
