2. Potentiometers
Potentiometer A
is used to adjust the close stall force the gate operator. Turn clockwise to increase the stall
force, and turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the stall force.
Potentiometer B
is used to adjust the open stall force the gate operator. Turn clockwise to increase the stall
force, and turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the stall force.
WARNING: Photocell is highly recommended to be installed with the gate opener as entrapment
protection for safety when you set stall force to maximum.
Test the Reversing Sensitivity
For the sake of safety, it is very important to test the reversing sensitivity as soon as the control board set is
finished.
The reversing sensitivity adjustment is inverse correlation with stall force adjustment in potentiometer A and
B. In other word, the stall force level is higher; the reversing sensitivity level is lower.
Put an immobile object along the gate path, and then operate the gate to strike it during the close cycles.
The gate must reverse as soon as object is struck with it. If the gate doesn’t reverse, please increase the
reversing sensitivity by turning the potentiometer in counter-clockwise direction. (Turning the stall force
potentiometer toward to MIN position to increase the reversing sensitivity)
Note 1: If the sensitivity setting is too higher, the gate will stop or reverses very easy by itself while
there is little obstruction or resistance such as strong wind or heavy snow sometimes.
Note 2: Always check the gate reversing function every each time of control board set or restart after
power off.
How to Program or Erase the Remote
The remote MUST be programed to the opener BEFORE OPERATING. Please follow the steps to
program the remote.
Activate the opener only when gate is in full view, free of obstruction and properly adjusted. No
one should enter or leave gate area while gate is in motion. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN to
operate push button or remote. DO NOT ALLOW
CHILDREN TO PLAY NEAR THE GATE.
If you purchase additional remote controls, the
gate opener must be programmed to accept the
new remote code.
If you lose one of any remote control, please
erase and reprogram all other remote controls
to have a new code for safety.
Program the remote
Press and release the learn button, the
REM
LED
light will be on, then press the key in the remote twice in 2
seconds, the
REM LED
light will flash for 4 seconds. Now the remote has been programmed successfully.
Erase all the remote codes
Press and hold the learn button until the
REM
LED
light is off. Now all remote codes have been erased.
NOTE:
Max. 8 remotes can be programmed for the opener. An External Receiver (optional) allows up to
