16 - ACCESSORY INPUTS AND OUTPUTS 

Commercial Gate Operator Accessory Inputs: 

Auxiliary Inputs 1 (16) and 2 (18):

 These digital inputs may be connected 

to the digital outputs of accessories and programmed to activate or control 

the gate operator in a number of different modes. Shorting the pins through a 

dry contact activates the programmed settings for these inputs. These inputs 

are programmed in the “FUNCTION Auxiliary I/O” menu. 

SAFETY LOOP Input:

 (22) Dry contact input that can be programmed for an 

inductive safety loop or photo-eye detector. Shorting pin 22 to GND reverses 

a closing gate to the full open position. The opened gate is held opened for 

as long as the LOOP input is active. 

SHADOW (LOOP 1) Input:

 (24) Dry contact input that can be programmed 

for an inductive safety loop or photo-eye detector. Shorting the LOOP 1 input 

(24) to GND maintains an OPEN gate fully open and a CLOSED gate fully 

closed until deactivated. 
Setting the LOOP1 input to “Photo Mode” causes the moving gate to stop, 

then reopens the gate when the LOOP1 input is deactivated. 

ENTRAPMENT (LOOP 2) Input:

 (26) Dry contact input that can be 

programmed for an inductive safety loop or photo-eye detector. Shorting the 

LOOP2 input (26) to GND while the gate is opening cause the gate to close 

to the fully closed position. This loop input is intended for use with safety 

sensors to prevent entrapment between the opening gate and an adjacent 

wall or structure. 

Edge Input:

 (28) This input may be configured as “DIGITAL” or “ANALOG” 

as required by the sensor type. When configured as “DIGITAL”, this is a dry 

contact input; otherwise when configured as “ANALOG”, the input must 

measure 8200ohms. When the input is activated it stops the gate regardless 

of direction of travel, momentarily reverses it then stops. 

Exit Input:

 (30) Dry contact input for a vehicle exit sensor. Shorting this 

input to GND opens gate from the closed position and holds gate open with 

maintained input or reverses gate if closing. 

Fire Input:

 (32) Dry contact input for a fire department control switch. Opens 

the gate and holds the gate open until the control switch is deactivated. This 

input is “hold to run”. Auto-close is disabled when this input is activated. Also 

clears hard shutdown. 

GUARD STATION 
Guard Station Open:

 (34) Dry contact input for a guard station open switch. 

Momentarily shorting the digital input to GND opens the gate to the full open 

position with the subsequent auto-close feature enabled. 

Guard Station Stop:

 (35) Dry contact input (Normally Closed) for a guard 

station stop switch. Momentarily opening this input stops the opening gate at 

its current position. While this input is activated, all other inputs are disabled 

and are not functional. 

Guard Station Close:

 (36) Dry contact input for a guard station close 

switch. Momentarily shorting the digital input to GND closes the gate (master 

and slave). 

RADIO 
Radio Open:

 (39) Dry contact input for an accessory radio open switch. 

Momentarily shorting the digital input to GND opens the gate to the full open 

position with the subsequent auto-close feature enabled. 

Radio Close:

 (40) Dry contact input for an accessory radio close switch. 

Momentarily shorting the digital input to GND closes the gate. 

Radio Input:

 Open/Close: (39 and 40) If you tie open and close together the 

unit will operate as a Step by Step command each time the input is shorted 

to GND, it will either OPEN, STOP or CLOSE.

16.1 - Outputs 

Figure - BOARD OUTPUTS 

Commercial Gate Operator Accessory Outputs: 
OUT1 and OUT2:

 Individual, isolated relays provide COMMON, NORMALLY 

OPEN, and NORMALLY CLOSED dry contacts for switching accessories 

based on programming of the “Auxiliary IO” function. These outputs are 

programmed in the “FUNCTION Auxiliary I/O” menu. 

Magnetic Lock:

 Provides fused power (1.85A max) and isolated relay 

COMMON, NORMALLY OPEN, and NORMALLY CLOSED dry contacts for 

electrically powered and maintained magnetic locks. The output time for 

magnetic lock activation/deactivation may be adjusted from 0 to 5 seconds. 

Lamp:

 Provides fused power (1.85A max) to drive a flashing warning lamp 

to indicate gate operation. This output is active when the gate is operating 

(Opening and Closing). Lamp Delay sets the amount of time the lamp 

accessory output is activated prior to gate movement. Settings from 0 to 5 

seconds with a step of 0.5 seconds. 

Alarm:

 Provides fused power (0.5A @ 12VDC) to drive an alarm siren 

to signal the occurrence of a hard shutdown, caused by 2 consecutive 

entrapment events (signals). This alarm output is reset by pressing the “Reset 

Hard Shutdown” button on the front panel or activating the “FIRE” input.
