•
Check the reversing sensitivity.
•
Disconnect the gate from the gate operator and check that the gate slides freely without binding.
•
Gate might be too heavy.
•
Continue troubleshooting.
Gate opens a short
distance, then stops
and reverses.
Alarm sounds for 5
minutes and then
chirps once every 5
seconds. Operator
will not run.
Symptom
Possible Solution(s)
•
Check the input LEDs. Any ON will hold the gate open and indicates a problem with a keying device.
•
Check the secondary safety devices. Any activated will hold the gate open and indicates a problem
with the safety device.
•
Check the loop detectors. Any activated can hold the gate open and indicates a problem with the
loop detector or ground loop.
•
Operator may be in a “soft shutdown.” Activate any keying device to determine if operator returns
to normal operation.
•
If automatic close is desired, be sure SW-1, switch 2 is ON.
•
Check motor as described above.
Gate opens but will
not close.
Gate closes but will
not open.
Gate closes and then
re-opens.
Gate starts to close,
then reverses to
open.
•
Operator may be in a “soft shutdown.” Check input LEDs. If any are ON, momentarily disconnect,
then re-connect the wire going to the respective terminal. Operator should open.
•
Check to be sure that the operator is running in the proper direction. Turn power OFF, and then back
ON. Activate a keying device. Operator should run in the open direction. If operator runs in the
close direction, turn power OFF and change direction switch SW-1, switch 1. Go to above section if
operator now opens but will not close.
•
Be sure that the respective LED on the control board lights when the keying device connected to the
respective terminal is activated. If LED does not light, momentarily place a jumper wire from
terminal 1 to the input terminal being checked. If LED lights and gate opens, problem is with the
keying device. If LED does not light, replace control board.
•
Check motor as described above.
•
Check that the reverse sensitivity is properly adjusted.
•
Disconnect the gate from the operator and check that the gate operates freely without any binding.
•
Check the loop detector LEDs and input LEDs. Any that flash ON will cause the gate to reverse.
•
Check for proper loop wiring. A mis-wired loop detector will cause the gate to reverse.
•
Continue troubleshooting.
•
Check for any input or loop detector LEDs that are ON.
•
Check that the operator is running in the proper direction (see “gate closes but will not open” above).
•
Operator is in a “hard shutdown” condition. Alarm reset button must be pressed to return operator
to normal operation.
•
Check ERD (Reverse Sensor) setting.
Gate will not reverse
when an obstruction
is encountered.
•
Check that SW-2, switch 3 is ON.
•
Check Motor:
Gate must be half way open before testing motor.
Secondary operator
motor will not run.
1.
Turn AC power OFF
and remove plug P2 from circuit board. On the P2 terminal, connect
terminal 1 to terminal 5 and terminal 2 to terminal 6. Turn AC power
ON – CAUTION – HIGH
VOLTAGE.
The motor should run, turn power
OFF
.
2.
With AC power still OFF
. Connect terminal 1 to terminal 6, and terminal 2 to terminal 5.
Turn AC power
ON – CAUTION – HIGH VOLTAGE.
The motor should run in the opposite direction
as terminal 1 to terminal 5 and terminal 2 to terminal 6, turn power
OFF
.
3.
If secondary motor does not run, or runs in only one direction, problem can be in the wiring
from the primary to secondary operator, bad secondary motor
