1. LED shows P1:
P1 is for setting your run time
. The run time will be determined from the time you had
determined during the set up of the limit switches. Take that determined run time and add 1 second. So if
it takes 10 seconds to get from closed to open between limit switches; set the run time to 11 seconds. The
options are 0-99 seconds.
2. LED shows P2:
P2 is for setting your slow down time
. The gate opener will slow down to half speed
after the time set on P2 expires. If you wish to have the gate open and close faster make the slow down
start time a longer period of time. If you want to put less stress on the gears and gate set the slow time
shorter to slow the momentum sooner. The options will adjust to match the previously set run time.
NOTE:
motor must be in slow down to detect limits—be sure this number does not exceed the time the
motor take to move from one limit to the other.
3. LED shows P3:
P3 is the force setting
, the lower the number the easier the gate will reverse directions
when it meets resistance. This number may have to be changed to a higher setting if your gate is
obstructing unexpectedly. The number should be set to the highest number during initial setup and
reduced to the point of reliable operation that takes into account change in gate resistance through out the
year. The options are 0-32.
4. LED shows P4:
P4 is for setting a delay between leafs
if you have overlapping gates or a gate lock.
The motor wired into the master terminals (1) opens first if there is a delay and closes second. It is
recommended to have a delay of 3 seconds to avoid any jamming issues between leafs.
5. LED shows P5:
P5 is the release for the gate lock
– this option determines the length of time 24VDC
will be sent out of terminals E_LOCK. The options are 1-4 seconds.
6. LED shows P6:
P6 is the delay for automatic re-close
from the open position – this option needs to
be turned on using the dip switch on the board. The options are 0-99 seconds.
