Operational Check

5a  Activate the operator using the activation device. The operator will perform one sizing cycle. 

Sizing Cycle: Occurs after power is turned on and a legitimate activation signal is received. During the sizing cycle, 

the door opens and closes one time.

5b  If the door does NOT OPEN AT ALL during the sizing cycle:

•  Check the door for binding.

•  If an electromechanical lock is being used, check that the lock disengages before the operator opens the door.

•  Check fuses, circuit breakers and connections.

•  Adjust the operator and check the door operation (see Step 6: Operator Adjustment on page 9). 

Below are default settings: 

 

Opening Speed 

9:00 

Back Check Speed 

3:00 

Hold Open Time Delay 

10:00 

Latch Position 

12:00 

Closing Speed 

12:00 

Back Check Position 

4:00 (fully clockwise)

5c  If the door does NOT OPEN FULLY during the sizing cycle:

•  Check the door for binding.

•  Increase the back check speed slightly and re-check the door operation. Repeat until door opens fully.

5d  If the door OPENS TOO FAST during the sizing cycle, decrease the back check speed slightly and re-check the door 

operation. Repeat until the door opens at desired speed.

5e  After the sizing cycle is completed and the door(s) are closed, apply a maintained activatin signal. Check that the door 

remains open while the signal is applied.

5f  When the door is operating properly, continue with step 4k on page 7.
