Control Board Dipswitch Setting Verification
NOTE: This check must be performed before
operating the gate for the first time. Failure to do
so may damage the gate operator.
Before operating the gate lets make sure the
Patriot RSL control board dipswitches are
set correctly for your installation. Locate the
dipswitches on the Patriot RSL control board.
Factory default dipswitch settings are 2 and 3 on.
ON - Down on right

Optional Soft Stop for Open or Close Position
The Patriot RSL control board is equipped with a selectable soft stop feature for open, close or both
directions, if desired. Understanding how this feature operates is required before turning ON any control
switches or possible control board or gate damage may occur.
This feature reduces the gate speed when turned ON for approximately the last 18 inches of gate travel.
IMPORTANT: Before turning this feature ON the gate open, close or both stop positions must be
adjusted so that the gate is stopping about 24 inches short of the fully open, close or both desired
stop positions.
Once adjusted as stated above identify the installation type and use chart below for dipswitch settings.
