DEFINITION OF DIP SWITCH SETTINGS
“Step-by-step Mode” (Dip switches 1 and 2 OFF)
– In step-by-step mode a single command via transmitter or a momentary switch
connected to the OSC input will cause the gate to open. If no other command is issued and at the end of the slow down phase the gate will
stop, the operating cycle is complete and the gate waits for a further command to close. If a command is made before the end of any
opening or closing cycle the gate will stop. A new command will cause the reversal of the motion.
“Automatic Mode” (Dip switch 1 OFF and dip switch 2 ON)
- In automatic mode a single command via transmitter or a momentary switch
connected to the OSC input will cause the gate to open. If no other command is issued and at the end of the slow down phase the gate will
stop, the pause period starts and when concluded the gate closes automatically. When the gate is closed the operating cycle is complete
and the gate waits for a further command. If a command is made before the end of any part of the opening or closing cycle the gate will
stop. A new command will cause the reversal of the motion. If a command is made during the pause part of the cycle the gate will not close
automatically and the gate will wait for a new command to close the gate.
“Apartment Mode” (Dip switch 1 ON and dip switch 2 OFF)
– In apartment mode a single command via transmitter or a momentary switch
connected to the OSC input will cause the gate to open. At the end of the slow down phase the gate will stop, the pause period starts and
when concluded the gate closes automatically. When the gate is closed the operating cycle is complete and the gate waits for a further
command. If a command is made during the opening phase it has no effect. If a command is made during the closing phase the gate will
stop, pause for approximately 1.5 seconds and reopen. If a command is made during the pause part of the cycle the pause time will reset
and gate closing will commence later. IMPORTANT: If using a time clock to control the gate then apartment mode must be selected.
“Single Wing Mode” (Dip switch 3 ON)
– In single wing mode the board drives motor 2 output only (MOT2).
“Kickback / Extra Push” (Dip switch 4 ON)
– If an electric lock is fitted it may be necessary to have a brief “kickback” to release in the
opening phase or “Extra Push” to lock in the closing phase.
“Wing Delay Zero” (Dip switch 5 ON)
– If you have dual gates which do not overlap and do not have an electric lock then it may be
desirable to have both gates open and close at the same time and with no delay. Turning on dip switch 5 to achieve this. NB: If dip 5 is on
then dip three must be off.
“Lock Output As Open Light” (Dip switch 6 ON)
– It is possible to use the lock output as an open light if no lock is used. Turn dip switch 6
on and the lock output can be used to turn on a light.
“Exclude Photocell Test” (Dip switch 7 ON)
– The board tests the photocell/s to ensure correct operation and presence of power before
every cycle. To disable this test turn dip switch 7 on. If you do not have photocells turn dip switch 7 on.
“Slow Ampstop Motor 1” (Dip switch 8 ON)
– The control board will stop the gate should it hit an obstacle causing the motor to work harder
and therefore increase the amp draw on the board. The factory default is if the increased amp draw occurs for 0.4 of a second. By turning
on dip switch 8 this will increase to 1 second.
“Slow Ampstop Motor 2” (Dip switch 9 ON)
– The control board will stop the gate should it hit an obstacle causing the motor to work harder
and therefore increase the amp draw on the board. The factory default is if the increased amp draw occurs for 0.4 of a second. By turning
on dip switch 9 this will increase to 1 second.
“Turn On Signal LED’s” (Dip switch 10 ON)
– It is possible to turn all on board LED’s on or off. In a solar installation turn dip switch 10 OFF
after programming to conserve power.
