Pause Time  

The pause time between opening and closing can be 
adjusted from 5 to 240 seconds. Turn the potentiometer 
clockwise to increase the pause time and counter-
clockwise to decrease the pause time. 

Opening/Closing Time  

The opening/closing time is adjustable from 10 to 62 
seconds. The approximate opening/closing time for a 
90-degree opening is 18 seconds. Turn the 
potentiometer clockwise to increase the time and 
counterclockwise to decrease the time. 
 
For optimal operation, set the time so that the motor 
remains active for a few seconds after the leaf has 
reached its limit stop for opening and for closing. 

Leaf Delay  

You may choose to delay one leaf on closing for 
overlapping gate leaves. Be sure the operator on the leaf 
for delayed closing is connected to Motor 1. On 
opening, the leaf connected to Motor 2 is delayed 2.5 
sec.  

Note

: You cannot 

adjust

 this opening delay of 

the operator connected to Motor 2. However, 
you can avoid the opening delay—and closing 
delay—by connecting both operators (and their 
capacitors) to Motor 1.  

The closing leaf delay time is adjustable from 0 to 28 
seconds. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase 
the time and counterclockwise to decrease the time. 

Note

: If one-leaf gate designs, be sure to set 

the potentiometer for leaf delay to its minimum 
(0 seconds). 

Note

: If the opening/closing time is set at less 

than the leaf delay time, the delayed leaf closes 
at the end of the closing time. 

 
 

 
 
 

Maintenance 

The 412 Operator 

The FAAC 412 Operator requires no maintenance. 
Periodically inspect the operator, however, to confirm 
the suitability of the hardware. 
 

The Control Panel 

The control panel requires no maintenance, but every 
six months you should verify that the torque adjustment 
setting is appropriate. FAAC recommends that the 
torque be set so that the gate leaf stops if it encounters a 
force of more than about 33 lb (15 kg).
