936 CONTROL BOARD PROGRAMMING OPTIONS
FORCE BUTTON
Fc = Amount of force needed to cause the gate to stop and retract when hitting an
obstacle.
SLOWDOWN BUTTON
SP = Amount of slowdown (%) of gate as it nears open and close limits
AUTO-CLOSE BUTTON
AC = Number of seconds after opening that gate automatically closes.
OPTIONS BUTTON
bP = BI-PARTING GATE
Dual gate only: Sets delay in seconds of open/close
of 2nd gate after 1st gate.
rA = RUN ALARM
Selects behavior of alarm or strobe during opening
and closing of gates.
rc = RADIO CHANNELS
Selects how the buttons work on the remote
transmitters.
Sb = STANDBY MODE
Turns on and off the standby power saving mode.
Sc = GATE SYNCHRONIZE
Dual gate only: Synchronizes both gates to make up
for delay of Motor 2 cable length.
SL = SOLENOID LOCK
Allows a solenoid lock to be automatically unlocked
and locked during gate open/close.
P1 or P2 = P1 or P2
INPUTS
Allows use of two extra inputs, either for step-by-step
use or for 300 Hz pulse safety devices.
FORCE BUTTON
This option selects the amount of force needed to cause the gate to stop and retract when hitting an obstacle.
Current sensitivity should be set to a level strong enough for operation under normal conditions yet sensitive
enough to reverse if obstructed.
Press the FORCE Button. “Fc” momentarily appears in the display, followed by the default of either “03” or the
value last selected. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select values, then press OK to accept selection. Values
are as follows:
• 01 = Most Sensitive (least force required to cause a reversal)
• 02
• 03 = Average (default and recommended setting)
• 04
• 05 = Least Sensitive (most force required to cause a reversal)
SLOWDOWN BUTTON
This option adjusts percentage of acceleration or deceleration when opening or closing. Setting Slowdown to
lowest acceptable setting provides most reliable operation.
Press the SLOWDOWN button. “SP” is shown in display, followed by the default of either “03” or the value
last selected. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select values, then press OK to accept selection. Values are as
follows:
• 1 - 5% (recommended for most gates)
• 2 - 10%
• 3 - 15% (default)
• 4 - 20%
• 5 - 25%
