check out phase, it will be necessary to adjust the sensitivity to
prevent inherent overloads from gate friction and other gate
anomalies. See Figure 17. Adjust the OPEN and CLOSE
OVERLOAD potentiometers approximately 1/4 turn clockwise.
Note! Turning the potentiometer clockwise decreases sensitivity.
Turning the potentiometer counterclockwise increases sensitivity.
WARNING: THE OVERLOAD POTENTIOMETERS MUST
BE SET MORE PRECISELY PRIOR TO COMPLETING THE
GS6000 INSTALLATION
. (See, FINAL SETTING OF THE
MOTOR OVERLOAD SENSITIVITY)

SWITCH
SELECTABLE
OPTIONS
The switches that control the selectable options are located on the
Control board. See Figure 18.
NO-LOAD TEST MODE
To run/test the GS6000 operator when it is not connected to a gate
leaf, turn all of the switches to the “ON” position. The GS6000 can
then be operated without a gate leaf attached for 20 complete cycles.
If more that twenty cycles are attempted in the test mode the operator
control board changes to a “sleep” mode and a low pulsed tone is
heard from the audible output. You can reset the operator for a
renewed 20 test cycles by turning the power off and back on again.
To return to normal operation turn one of the switches to the “OFF”
position, then set all the switches to the desired mode of operation as
described in the text that follows.
SAFE SECURE
™
OPEN/CLOSE PUSH BUTTON
ENABLE-ON-ALARM FEATURE (PATENT NO.
6,611,205)
Switch S1 controls the Safe Secure Open/Close Push Button Enable-
On-Alarm Feature.
SWITCH 1 OFF:
Activating the Open or Close buttons the gate will
open or close fully. Activation of the Open while the gate is closing
will cause it to re-open. Activation of the Close while the gate is
opening has no effect. Continuous activation of an opposing button
while the gate is on a limit will prevent operation in that direction.
Continuous signal required to move the gate when in the alarm mode.
SWITCH 1 ON:
Gate does not respond to pushbutton input when in
the normal mode. Continuous signal required to move the gate when
in the alarm mode. This patented feature allows you to mount a two
or three button station in an unsecured location as it will only be
active when in the alarm mode.
TIMER TO CLOSE SETTING
The Timer to Close is controlled by the setting of the “AUTO
CLOSE TIMER” potentiometer on the control board, see Figure 19.
When the pot is adjusted fully counter-clockwise the Timer-To-Close
is disabled. Turning the pot approximately 1/4 turn clockwise will
enable the Timer To Close function with a delay of approximately 2
seconds between the gate reaching the full open position and
automatically closing. To increase the time delay continue to turn
the pot in the clockwise direction to a maximum delay of 60 seconds
(one minute).
AUTO RE-CLOSE (TIMER-TO-CLOSE FUNCTION)
Switch S2 controls the Auto-Re-close function. If the Timer To
Close function is enabled (see above), setting Switch S2 to the ON
position will activate the Auto-Re-close feature on the motor control
board. When the auto-re-close is activated, the gate will re-close
after stopping and backing-off from a non-contact sensor input if the
close movement was initiated by the Timer-To-Close function on the
control board. The gate will not re-close if the sensor input was
received from a contact sensor or if the inherent overload sensor was
activated.
PRIMARY/SECONDARY CONFIGURATION
Switch S3 controls the Primary (Master) Terminals (#s 14 & 15)
configuration setting. The setting is used when two control boards
(boxes) are used in conjunction with two mechanical units.
