SETUP

Overview

1. Ensure all safety and trigger devices are installed. Any

unused safety inputs MUST BE BRIDGED.

2. Ensure the gate path is clear of obstacles.

3. Check the LEDs  are working correctly. red LEDs should

be off, green LEDs should be on. ( with the exception of the

LEDs for the limit switch status  yellow)

4. Set the dip switch to the standard program, if not already

done on delivery:  1= “ON”, 2=”ON”, 3=”OFF”. 

5. Dip switch 7 determines the direction of opening 

(see Dip switch description) 

6. Set the force at the potentiometer “FORCE “ to approx

30% lower if the gate is light. Adjust force up or down in

small increments.

7. Switch off control board (cut from current)

8. Set jumper switch to on if installing 771ANZ safety

beams. See page 8.

Programming the travel time

1. With the gate disengaged, roll the gate to its start and

stop limits to ensure the LED change state. 

2. Move the gate to about halfway through its travel and

engage the pinion (see page 4).

3. Press button L1 briefly (1 second), the gate opens. If the

gate reaches the “OPEN” limit switch, it stops briefly and

then closes again automatically. Once the gate reaches the

“OPEN” limit switch, the programming process is

completed.The travel time has now been programmed. The

soft stop (slow run) is programmed automatically approx. 4-5

seconds before the limit switch is reached. This option can

be selected via dip switch (page 11).

NOTE: If the gate closes instead of opening, dip switch

7 must be moved to the other position! Turn the power

off and start again. 

Completion of the installation/programming:

Once the travel time is programmed. Test the gate by using

the Remote controls provided with your kit.

1. Start the gate with the remote or an activation button:

ensure the gate opens completely and closes completely. 

Note1: If the gate does not respond check the remotes are

programmed properly and that the PE beams are aligned.

Note2: If the gate reacts to the input closure (terminals

7+10) but fails to operate using the remote control, check

the module is plugged in correctly and that the remotes are

programmed correctly.

2. If the gate does not close completely by itself, some fine

tuning of the force potentiometer may be required. 

Make: small adjustments to the force setting, do not simply

turn the trim pot to full force.

3. Now start a second attempt and proceed as above. Close

the gate first before you make any settings.

4. If 771E PE beams are installed on your system you

should adjust the closing time now that all other function

tests are complete.

5. Commission the site by demonstrating the gates

functionality to your client and ensure they are familiar with

the manual release procedure as set out on (page 5).
