Installing reversing devices has the following effects
on the logic of A1 mode: During the opening phase,
a triggered reversing device is ignored; the gate
continues to open. During the pause phase, a
triggered reversing device stops the count of the
pause phase. The pause count resumes when the
reversing device is no longer triggered. During the
closing phase, a triggered reversing device causes
the gate to immediately reopen.
WARNING!
For maximum safety to people
and property when you use A1 mode, use a
non-contact (loop detector or photocell)
reversing device.
A2 (Automatic 2) Mode
The A2 (automatic 2) operating logic is like A1 mode
except in the way a gate leaf responds to triggered
reversing devices when the leaf is fully opened and
when the leaf is closing.
During the pause phase the leaf will close after a 5-sec
delay once the reversing device is no longer triggered.
When the leaf is closing, a triggered reversing device
causes the leaf to stop. When the reversing device is no
longer triggered, the leaf opens.
WARNING!
For maximum safety to people
and property when you use A2 mode, use a
non-contact (loop detector or photocell)
reversing device.
S1 (Security) Mode
The S1 (security) mode of operation is similar to the A1
mode with the following exception: If an activating
signal is sent while the gate is in its opening or pause
phases, the gate closes immediately.
WARNING!
For maximum safety to people
and property when you use S1 mode, use a non-
contact (loop detector or photocell) reversing
device.
S2 (Security Plus) Mode
The S2 (security plus) mode of operation is similar to
S1 mode except in the way reversing devices operate.
During the pause phase of S2 logic, a triggered
reversing device interrupts the pause count but does not
reset the pause count. The gate continues its pause
phase after the reversing device is no longer triggered,
and the gate then closes when the count has finished.
During the closing phase of S2 logic, a triggered
reversing device stops the gate. When the reversing
device is no longer triggered, the gate reopens.
WARNING!
For maximum safety to people
and property when you use S2 mode, use a non-
contact (loop detector or photocell) reversing
device.
B Mode
The B mode of operation is designed for a gate system
that is attended by a person who accesses a three-button
switch to open, close, or stop the gate leaf.
Essentially, in B mode you must press the switch for the
movement you desire. For example, if you want the gate
to open, you must press the
open
button on the switch.
The exception to the "you get what you press" logic is
that you must always stop the gate while it is in motion
if you want to change the direction of the gate's travel
before the gate reaches its limit.
Note
: The A/C signal functions as a close signal
in the B mode.
Any installed reversing devices will work only during
the closing phase of the gate's movement. Reversing
devices will have no effect during the opening of the
gate.
C Mode
The C mode of operation requires a person to attend a
two-button (at least) switch to open and close the gate.
In C mode, the gate leaf moves only while the activating
button is being pressed. Thus, the attendant must press
the activating button for as long as is necessary for the
gate leaf to fully open or fully close.
Note
: The A/C signal functions as a close signal
in the C mode.
If a three-button switch is used with C mode, the stop
button will stop the gate whenever it is pressed. Any
reversing devices installed will work only during the
closing phase of the gate's movement.
