I.
Status Lights
With the battery connected, the Armed/Ready panel
light should be flashing green for each Terminator
Actuator that is attached to the controller.
If Armed/
Ready light is OFF and actuator is connected to
controller, attempt to reset controller by pressing and
holding the
TEST B key until BATTERY STATUS
light turns OFF (+/- 6 seconds), then release.
Controller will reboot.
This reset is required after
every emergency activation but is not required
after a test activation.
Apply 115 / 230 VAC power to the Gemini Controller.
With the battery and AC power connected, the amber
BATTERY CHARGER STATUS panel light will flash
slow or fast indicating the amount of charge current
being applied to the battery. A steady (solid) ON light
indicates battery is fully charged.
If the amber BATTERY STATUS panel light is
flashing after AC power is applied, the battery may
have discharged during storage or transit. It should
change to steady ON after a few minutes.
Do not
proceed with the remainder of the installation
until BATTERY STATUS light is steady ON.
If
required, see the troubleshooting section of this
manual for battery test or replacement procedures.
J.
System Connection Check
The electrical system must be checked during
installation for proper polarity and status indication.
This is done by test running each actuator
BEFORE
placing the actuator on a cylinder or tank valve.
TEST PROCEDURE:
1. Place actuator in the storage rack or hold in a
manner where drive bushing can be observed.
2. Depending on actuator being observed, press
either TEST A or TEST B key on Gemini panel
and observe rotation of bushing.
3. Confirm that the actuator shaft and drive
bushing rotate in the closing direction when
motor turns.
4. The actuator motor should run for about
3 seconds and then shut off automatically.
5. If the bushing does not turn, or turns in the
opening direction, DO NOT USE and contact
factory!
6. Repeat above TEST PROCEDURE for each
actuator.
7. When the system successfully passes the
polarity test, you may proceed to “ Mounting to
a Cylinder Valve ”, Section IV, or “ Mounting to
a Ton Container Valve”, Section V, for further
testing of the system.
WARNING
Do not place actuator on valve until the
following test is complete!
IMPORTANT
The actuator cables and controls are connected
with proper polarity when the actuator motor
drives the shaft and bushing in the direction that
closes the valve (counter clockwise when
viewed from the bottom of the actuator).
NOTICE
Pushing the mainboard “RESET” button is
required whenever a new battery is installed or if
the battery connection is interrupted during
control system set-up.
WARNING
During test, drive busing will rotate. Keep clear
of drive bushing to prevent injury.
