screw and move the arm for the close limit until the RED light illuminates
on the front of the control board (see Figure 13 steps 4-5-6-7). When the
CLOSED limit switch is set, tighten the set screw to hold it in place (see Fig-

board. To perform this task, follow the below listed steps:
1. The control board is already in the “LEARNING MODE” when shipped. In
any case follow steps of section 6.9 in order to select the most appro-
priate kind of gate according to the installation. Press “OK” to allow the
control board to scan for attached items, such as sensors, photo-eye’s
and other safety devices.
2. The gate will open partially, then stop. This is being done, so that the
control board can sense the type and operational condition of the drive
motor. The gate will then run to the closing limit, so that it can properly
sense where it is located.
3. The control board will then OPEN the gate slowly to establish travel and
limits.
4. Once the gate reaches the fully OPENED limit switch, the control board
will now increase gate travel speed to the highest speed allotted, and will
now travel to the fully CLOSED position at full speed.
5. The gate opener is now programmed for basic usage.

6.6 - Learning and programming features
These steps begin the basic “Learning” programming of the gate opener unit.
Most all of the features and programming are pre-set and already set up for
most standard installations. The installer most often will only be required to
plug the unit into electrical power, and then “learn” the unit by setting the
limits on the gate movement. In most cases this is the extent of the basic
programming procedure. If the unit is not in LEARNING MODE see section
6.9 to place the unit into this mode.
Apollo has taken great care to simplify the installation, operation and safety
of this device and to ensure longevity and reliability of the unit over time. The
learning procedure consists of the following steps.

1. Install electrical power connections to the gate opener unit. Ensure the
power switch is in the OFF position prior to touching any of the power
connections. Install all gate accessories such as Photo-Eye’s, Sensors,
Loops and other safety devices.

2. Using the MANUAL RELEASE, disengage the drive motor if this is not
already accomplished (see Figure 9). Ensure that the gate moves freely by
moving it manually to the fully opened and fully closed positions verifying
there is no binding or cause for resistance.
3. Put gate mid-way and using the MANUAL RELEASE HANDLE, move it
counter-clockwise to re-engage the drive system (see Figure 9) and then
stow handle.

4. Turn on the electrical power to the unit. The control board is already in the
“LEARNING MODE” when shipped (see Figure 10), but in order to select
the right kind of gate press FUNCTION, then LEARN then select SWING,

5. Using the OPEN button on the front of the Control board, hold the OPEN
button down until the gate reaches the fully open position or where the
