CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL L.E.D. (OPTIONAL)
An external L.E.D. (light em itting diode) can be wired to the m otor. This will indicate the status of the gate at all times.
The m ost comm on place to fit the L.E.D. is in the handset of the intercom . If there is no intercom then the L.E.D. can
be placed in any chosen location.
The L.E.D. indications are as follows.
Gate open ……………L.E.D. ON SOLID.
Gate closed …………..L.E.D. FLASH ONCE EVERY TWO SECONDS. (If mains is on)
Gate in operation……..L.E.D. FLASHING CONTINUOUSLY
If the gate is closed and there is no L.E.D. indication, this m eans that the mains power is off and the battery is not
charging, this means that the battery will go flat and the m otor will operate until the battery is flat.

WARRANTY

Please read these instructions before installation begins. The manufacturers have taken all reasonable steps to ensure
that the gate operator is safe to install and use. However it m ust be rem em bered that a gate is a heavy piece of m oving
equipm ent and may cause serious dam age or inj ury if the gate strikes a vehicle or person. The gate operator has built
in collision sensing electronics, this m eans that the gate will stop and re-open if an object is struck, however this
m eans that the gate will phy sically strike the object before stopping. It is therefore strongly recomm ended that
DuraOptic infra-red safety beam s are installed to reduce the risk of the gate striking an obj ect.
Note
, The installation of beam s does not guarantee against the gate striking an obj ect in its path while m oving.
Never allow children to play on or near any automation equipm ent.
Never operate the m otor when it is out of direct sight.
WIRING REQ UIREMENTS
. The electrical wiring of this operator should be done with extrem e care as this can
cause inj ury or even death if not done correctly .
The operator is supplied with a 220vac—16vac transformer, this transform er m ust not be tam pered with in any way
whatsoever. The transform er should be placed inside the house and then the 16vac is run to the m otor. The m inim um
wire requirem ents for 16vac are 1.5m m three core cable. (See electrical wiring in this m anual for m ore details)
NOTE
if 220vac is run to the m otor a registered electrician m ust be used to install the wiring. This is a legal require-
m ent. 220vac m ust be run in a dedicated conduit,
NO
other cable may be placed in the same conduit.
ENSURE THAT
the following item s are checked before any installation is done.
1.
The rail is level. The gate m ust not m ove on its own at any stage.
2.
The wheels are turning freely and are not jammed.
3.
The gate is not bent or bowed in any way .
4.
The rail has sufficient end stops so that the gate can never run off the end of the rail.
5.
The portal is constructed in such a way that the gate can not fall over.
6.
The rollers are turning freely and are not j amm ed.
7.
The anti lift device is sufficient in order to stop the gate from being lifted off the rail.
8.
The gate m ass or start-up force do not exceed the maxim um as stated in the specifications.
9.
The gate does not stick or j am in the catch bracket when closing or opening.
10.
Extreme care should be taken when autom ating a gate that is constructed out of any solid ty pe of material
such as wood, as wind resistance can cause over current problem s.
11.
The gate m ust not exceed the maxim um num ber of operations stated in the specifications.
If any of the above points are not satisfactory DO NOT INSTALL THE OPERATOR until all the points are rectified.
Rem em ber that if a gate causes inj ury or dam age due to faulty installation, the law will hold the person who installed
the m otor responsible. Please ensure that ALL of the above points are checked before installation. The installation of
the gate operator will not rectify any of the above problem s. This gate operator is not a security item .
