Basic Controller Programming (Cont.)
Run Alarm and Pre -start Alarm
The factory default is Run alarm on and a 3 -second Pre-start
Alarm. The operator’s beeper will sound 3 seconds before the
operator starts. The options are:
Run Alarm Off and Pre -start Alarm Off
Run Alarm On and Pre -start Alarm Off
Run Alarm On and Pre -start Alarm On for 3-9 seconds
Maximum Open Direction Current Setting
To detect obstacles or mechanical problems with the gate, the
operator monitors its motor current. If the open current load
exceeds the programmed maximum load number, the operator
will stop, reverse a short distance, then stop again. The Auto
close timer will be disabled, and another open request will be
required to start the operator again. If after restart the overload
or an open obstacle happens again before the open limit is
reached, the operator will lockout and sound the alarm.
To measure the motor load used during opening,
while this
function is being displayed,
push and hold the
OPEN
button
to open the gate. The motor current will be displayed as a load
number between 10 to 99. Set the programmed load number
above the measured load number, so that a minimal force (50 -
75 lbs.) will activate a reversal should an obstruction occur, but
high enough to keep the gate moving under normal conditions
without interruption.
Maximum Close Direction Current Setting
To detect obstacles or mechanical problems wi th the gate, the
operator monitors its motor current. If the close current load
exceeds the programmed maximum load number, the operator
will stop, reverse a short distance, then stop again. If after
restart, the overload or a close obstacle happens again before
the close limit is reached, the operator will lockout and sound
the alarm.
To measure the motor load used during closing,
while this
function is being displayed,
push and hold the close button
to close the gate. The motor current will be displayed as a load
number between
10 to 99. Set the programmed load number above the
measured load number, so that a minimal force (50 –75 lbs.)
will activate a reversal should an obstruction occur, but high
enough to keep the gate moving under normal conditions
without interruption.
NOTE: THE MAXIMUM OPEN / CLOSE CURRENT SENSING
SETTINGS MUST BE REPROGRAMMED AFTER EACH
CHANGE OF THE SOFT START / STOP SETTING (SS).
