OVERVIEW OF TYPICAL INSTALLATION

SINGLE GATE

DUAL GATE

Identify your installation type (refer to the Appendix in the back of the manual for more information).

NOTE:

One or more non-contact sensors

shall be located where the risk of
entrapment or obstruction exists at either
the opening or closing direction. Care shall
be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance
tripping, such as when a vehicle, trips the
sensor while the gate is still moving.
