Input/Output functions 

 

Pedestrian Input: 

The pedestrian input allows for the gate to be opened to a certain % of the full gate opening distance 

(20%-80% range). The % can be adjusted via the keypad from the N22 setting (see notes that follow).  

 
 

Open/Initialise Input: 

This input is used to commission the drive, and also used to open and close the gate. 

 
 

Door input: 

The door input is a safety function due to the operator having a manual release. Whenever the door is opened 

or the cover removed the next operation will be performed at slow speed so the inverter can reconfirm the stop positions. 
This averts the gate running at full speed into open and closed stop positions.  

 
 

NC Safety Beam: 

The nc safety beam input allows for the connection of safety devices (loops, PE beams, and other such 

equipment) which aid in the prevention of injury and damage to personnel and equipment upon the gate closing. 

 
 

10k Ohm Potentiometer: 

This has been supplied to allow an adjustment of 0-5 seconds pre-warning time before gate 

operation commences. 

 
 

Gate Running Output: 

Whenever the inverter is signalled to operate it provides an output (24vDC 150mA), 

which can be used to run other equipment. Where greater current draw is required or unsure of current draw it is 
recommended to connect a relay with which to operate auxiliary equipment.

 

 
 
Operating Modes 

The thumbwheel selector switch is used to select the operation mode which best suits the customers 
purpose, the details of the operational modes are as follows: 
 

Mode “0”  

#Auto close, (1-120 seconds, set by the knob on the front of the keypad, fully clockwise  
is 120 second auto close time.)                                                                                                                                        
#PE auto close, (meaning that when the gate is fully open and the photo electric cell beam is broken and 
then made again the gate will close straight away) 
#Multi-user, (meaning that the control circuitry will ignore any other input signals once the gate is 
opened and will only close with the auto close. 
 

Mode “1” 

#Manual operation, (meaning input to open and input to close) except, when closing and the PE is 
broken the gate will open up fully but will then auto close once the PE’s are cleared.) 
 

Mode “2” 

#Auto close, (meaning once the gate has opened the gate will close automatically once the set time has 
expired) (The auto close time is set by the knob on the front of the keypad, fully clockwise is maximum 
time, 120 seconds) 
#No PE auto close, (meaning the gates will not close even if the PE cell beam is broken and made 
again.) 
#No Multi-user, (meaning the auto close time can be overridden by another input to close the gates) 
A special program can be provided to have multi user mode. 
 

Mode “3 

#Manual operation, (meaning input to open, input to close) If PE beam is broken while gate is 
closing the gate will reopen and wait on another input to close.) 

 

(The 

Pedestrian

 input will operate as per the open input for the above operating modes).
