91

Force Reversal (Operator 1), 
the primary operator has 
detected an obstruction.

When attempting to open or close the 
gate, the gate stops and reverses about 
1 foot and then stops. The diagnostic 
display shows 91. 

•   Press the reset button to shut the alarm off.

•   Check for obstructions and debris in the 

gate’s path. Remove any obstructions or 
debris.

•  Adjust the limits and force 

•   Disconnect the gate and make sure the gate is 

able to move freely and all hardware is 
working correctly (i.e. gate hinges or wheels).

•   Make sure the gate and gate operator were 

installed correctly and the gate meets the 
specification requirements for the operator.

•   If all other solutions fail, there may be a 

damaged operator component (i.e. chain, 
sprockets, gear reducer, motor). Replace gate 
component if necessary.

TEST: Attempt to run the operator.

YES

92

Force Reversal (Operator 2), 
the secondary operator has 
detected an obstruction.

When attempting to open or close the 
gate, the gate stops and reverses about 
1 foot and then stops. The diagnostic 
display shows 92. 

93

RPM/STALL Reversal 
(Operator 1), the primary 
operator has detected an 
obstruction.

When attempting to open or close the 
gate, the gate stops and reverses about 
1 foot and then stops. The diagnostic 
display shows 93. 

If you attempt to run the operator again 
after code 93, the gate will move then 
stop and reverse about 1 foot, then 
stop. The alarm will sound for 5 
minutes. This means that the operator 
has detected an obstruction twice in a 
row (double entrapment).

•  Press the reset button to shut the alarm off.

•  Check the disconnect.

•   Check for obstructions and debris in the 

gate’s path. Remove any obstructions or 
debris.

•  Adjust the limits and force 

•   Disconnect the gate and make sure the gate is 

able to move freely and all hardware is 
working correctly (i.e. gate hinges or wheels).

•   Make sure the gate and gate operator were 

installed correctly and the gate meets the 
specification requirements for the operator.

•   If all other solutions fail, check the code 

history for code 34, which indicates the 
operator is not receiving information from the 
APE sensor. Check the APE assembly and 
connections. Replace APE assembly if 
necessary.

TEST: Attempt to run the operator.

YES

94

RPM/STALL Reversal 
(Operator 2), the secondary 
operator has detected an 
obstruction.

When attempting to open or close the 
gate, the gate stops and reverses about 
1 foot and then stops. The diagnostic 
display shows 94. 

If you attempt to run the operator again 
after code 94, the gate will move then 
stop and reverse about 1 foot, then 
stop. The alarm will sound for 5 
minutes. This means that the operator 
has detected an obstruction twice in a 
row (double entrapment).

95

AC motor no start condition

a)  The gate and motor are not moving 

or moving too slow.

b)  The motor is moving, but not the 

gate

c) Gate moves then stops.

d) The motor doesn’t run  

a)  Check for an obstructed gate, binding in the 

mechanism, and relay board and start 
capacitor connections.

b)  Check the encoder cup and sensor on the limit 

shaft, and wiring. Check the disconnect lever 
for SL595U operators.

c) Check the encoder cup and sensor wiring.

d)  Make sure that the motor harness is plugged 

into the connector in the power board that 
matches the correct input power.

YES

96

Missing or damaged current 
sensor

The gate will move briefly when 
commanded then stop. No further 
operation will be allowed.

Check and correct connections then power cycle 
operator.

YES

99

Normal Operation

n/a

No action required

YES

Some codes are saved in the code history and some are not. If a code is not saved it will briefly appear on the display as it occurs, then disappear. 
When servicing of the operator is complete, erase the code history by pressing the STOP button until the display flashes “Er” then “CL” (about 6 
seconds). When the codes have been erased the display will show “_ _”.
