StrongArm – Quick Start Instructions
For HTG Barrier Arm Gates
These instructions are provided as a quick reference guide to the experienced installer that is already familiar with
all safety precautions and the installation of this gate operator. Do not attempt to install from this guide if you are
inexperienced with this product.
1.
Using four 1/2” x 4 1/2” anchor bolts mount the operator to a concrete slab which reaches below the local
frost line. If necessary, use shims to level the base.
2. If installing the DC version of the operator, be careful to mount the battery power supply box very near the
control enclosure because of the high current demand by the DC motor.
Note:
For the DC version, refer
to
Section 8
of the operator handbook.
3.
Connect the electrical power to loose wires from the On/Off switch and a grounding wire to the lower left
corner of the electrical panel. Be certain the labeled voltage and phase of the operator matches the
available supply.
4.
Turn on the power switch. The Smart Touch LCD display should show, after a 2-second delay, the
characters [uC_0]. This is a setting for the UL user class that must be made before any function will be
possible. Press the Select button, then the Next button and change the 0 to be class 1-4 as appropriate
for the site. Press the Select button again to lock the setting.
5.
Press the Menu button and the display will jump to the close timer setting [Ct_0]. If a close timer function
is needed, set in the same manner as above. Press the Menu button again to exit to the Run Mode. The
LCD display should now read StoP, CloS or OPEn.
6.
If the operator contains more than four counterweights per side, the arm must be mounted before the
gate operator can be allowed to function. Otherwise, test for normal operation of the gate.
7.
Install the barrier arm and clamp securely. Single arms, up to 18’ maximum can be installed on either the
left or right side of the operator. Arms longer than 26’ include anti-sway cable harnesses that must also
be attached.
8.
Run the operator and verify normal smooth operation. If the arm stops abruptly at the end of travel, it
may be necessary to adjust either of the open or close brake valves and/or a limit switch setting. There
are two brake valves on the pump manifold and the one closest to the motor controls the stopping of the
arm in the closing direction. The open direction stop control is with the brake valve just to the left. If
adjustment of either brake valve is necessary, loosen the 9/16” lock nut and turn the adjuster screw with
an Allen wrench. A CCW adjustment will stop the arm more quickly. The limits must be set to trigger
about 10 degrees of arc before the arm has reached full travel. If adjustment of the limit switches is
necessary, slightly loosen the set screws on the cams at the top of the operator and set the limits to trip
early enough to ensure a smooth stopping arm. For detailed instructions on barrier arm adjustments,
review the page titled HTG 320 Adjustments in the handbook.
9.
Connect any required accessory device wiring. Note that the various inputs are all one wire only to the
main terminal strip while the other wire connects to the Common Buss on the nearby power supply board.
10. To access the User menu in the Smart Touch Controller, simply press the Menu button while there is no
active Open or Close input. The display will scroll system values and stop at the [Ct__] close timer
setting. There are 12 menu items in the User Menu. To reach the more detailed Installer menu, the
system must be in the User Menu first, then simultaneously press Open and Reset. The display will go to
[uC__] which is the first of 32 items in the Installer Menu. Read the instructions before attempting any
adjustments!
