Dual Gate Controller DCB-05
Owner Installation Instructions
Amp travel setup
Step 4a. Selecting The Number Of Motors
The controller will now prompt for the number of
motors connected to be entered. Use the UP or DOWN
key to select the correct number and then press SET
Fig. 14
.
Step 5a. Test And Adjust Stop Detection
Current Trip Levels
Note: If a dual gate installation is being used, steps 5A
and 6A will be undertaken for motor 2 and then motor
1.
For this type of installation the controller detects the
travel limits by sensing a motor current trip when
the mechanical stop is reached. In this step, the stop
detection current trip levels for each motor are tested
and adjustments made to obtain the optimum level. A
high value results in undue force, while a low value will
result in the gate stopping midway due to variations
in friction etc. Using the Up / DOWN keys drive the
motor into the close and open stops and adjust the stop
current trip levels. The motor should be driven into each
mechanical stop at full speed until the controller senses
a current trip and stops the motor Fig. 15.
Note: If the motor drives in the wrong direction (UP
closes gate / DOWN opens gate) the motor wires need
to be swapped over.
The trip current for each direction can be viewed and
adjusted by pressing the NEXT key on the keypad.
See PARAMETER VIEW AND EDIT for adjustment

Step 6a. Confi rming Settings
When the settings have being adjusted correctly, drive
the gate to the open stop and then press the SET Key.
As step 7A requires the gate to be open, the controller
will prompt you to confi rm the gate leaf is in the open
position. Press SET to confi rm or press EXIT to go back
and drive the gate open

Step 7a. Automatic Profi ling
After a brief pause the controller will automatically close
and open gate several times and learn the gates load
and travel characteristics. When the setup is complete
the MAIN SCREEN will be displayed with the gate
shown to be OPEN. The Gate can now be used.
Re-profi ling Travel
Re-profi ling is a simplifi ed way of re-learning the travel
characteristics of a previously setup Limit Switch/AMP
travel installation. Re-profi ling can be used when the
travel limits of a gate are altered or when the travel
characteristics of the gate change due to mechanical
adjustments etc. To initiate a re-profi le simply locate
“MENU 10.3 Re-profi le Travel” and press SET then
follow the prompts. The re-profi le feature will also
be automatically started when a control parameter is
altered which affects the gates travel. Re-profi le is not
available for TIMED TRAVEL installations.
