Installation of cable at gates
Intelli-FLEX II product guide • • • 5 - 15
A swinging gate within an Intelli-FLEX II zone that does not require cable
protection requires the installation of a bypass cable. See “Swinging gate bypass
cable” on page 13 for installation instructions.
A microwave sensor is often used across these types of gates.
Swinging gate with cable protection
Gates that have occasional use, such as maintenance gates, are usually included in
the Intelli-FLEX II zone. These gates can be protected by installing a loop of
Intelli-FLEX sensor cable on the gate panel.
Installation on a single panel swinging gate
1. Run sensor cable to the hinge side of the gate.
2. Make a service loop that reaches the gate without binding the cable when the
gate is fully opened in either direction.
3. Run the sensor cable around the perimeter of the gate panel, 30 cm (12 in.)
in from the edges.
4. Run a bypass cable from one side of the gate to the other. See “Swinging gate
bypass cable” on page 13 for installation instructions.
