Charger:

 A battery charger is built-in with the Control board for use with a 

backup battery. The charger may be manually programmed for customized 

charge settings or set to “Auto” to provide a battery charging profile that 

automatically compensates for temperature and current during the charging 

process. The following parameters are available for programming the battery 

charger: 
• Charger On/Off 

• Select Max current for charging (from 0.1A to 1.5A step 0.05A) 

• Cycling Time (1 second off charging every cycling time) 

• Auto (best charge considering temperature) 

Standby:

 Programs the timeout for the gate operator to go into low power 

standby mode. Low power standby is Settings from 5 to 120 seconds, or 

may be disabled with “OFF”. During low power standby there is no data 

displayed on the gate operator LCD and it consumes a minimum amount of 

power to extend the life of the backup battery. All the outputs are switched off 

and the LED OK blinks to show this standby status of the system. 

Advance Settings:

 The following settings are available for customizing the 

gate operator as required by the customer’s installation requirements: 
•  Set Language (English Spanish French) 
•  Set clock 12H/24H 
•  Set LCD Contrast 
•  Direction Motor (Changes main motor direction) (Can only be performed in 

learn mode) 

•  Auto Close Option (Allows auto close timer to close from any open position) 
•  Exit Option (Disables free exit input when partially open) 

•  Set Anti-tailgate (Closes gate immediately after vehicle has cleared safety 

sensors) 

•  Select inputs LOOP or PHOTO 
•  Select UL/EDGE input type (NO, NC, Analog) 
•  Select Master / Slave Motor1 or Motor2 
•  Activate link for remote Master/Slave (Enables control of an additional gate 

operator board) 

•  Power Fail Open (Opens gate automatically on batter backup power if main AC 

power input loss is detected) 

•  Motor 12V (Forces motor control voltage to +12VDC even if the supply voltage 

varies from +9.5VDC up to +35VDC) 

•  Set Virtual Encoder (Used for motors without built-in encoders) 

Default:

 This setting gives the installer/user the option of returning some or all 

settings of the gate operator to the original factory settings:
