UTTON

: The stop button you install must have 

normally closed (N.C.) contacts. Multiple

without a closed circuit between 11 & 16. 

 

The LED Indicators: The nine light emitting diodes 

(LEDs) on the control panel can be used to check for 

the proper function of the devices attached to the 

panel. The LED lights are on whenever the contacts 

are closed across each of the respective terminals. 

 

OP_A and OP_B (Partial Opening) should illuminate 

only when an activating signal is sent for 2 and 1 gate 

leaves, respectively. STOP should be illuminated except 

when the stop button is pressed. FSWOP and FSWCL 

should be illuminated except when the reversing
