SIGNAL
.
S
OLUTION
:
You should have at least one operator wired to
terminals 1,2 and 3.
Be sure that you have the motor start capacitors wired in
terminals 2 and 3, 5 and 6 with the directional leads.
Be sure that the torque/force setting is at the maximum
setting of 50 in programming for hydraulic operations.
Verify that the LEDs FSWOP, FSWCL, and the STOP are
illuminated. If they are not illuminated, be sure that you
have closed circuits in the stop and reversing inputs.
Verify that your activating device works properly. OP_A
should illuminate when you signal the gate to open. If
OP_A does not illuminate when you signal the gate, then
the problem may be in your activating device. Short
across terminals 9 and 14. If the short causes the gate
to open, then the problem is in the activating device.
Repair or replace the device

S

Make sure that the motor is running in the right
direction, and make sure the Manual Release

S
OLUTION
:
Make sure you have selected the desired operating
mode.
Verify that the reversing devices are working properly.
FSWOP and FSWCL should be illuminated except when a
reversing device is triggered. If either does not
illuminate, then one of your reversing devices is
preventing the gate from responding to your signal.
Check your reversing devices.
If no reversing devices are installed, make sure a circuit
is installed between appropriate terminals.

FULLY
OPEN
(
OR
CLOSE
).
S
OLUTION
:
Check the operator's open/close time selection. You
should set a time that is just longer than the rated
speed of your model of operator. For example, because
the 415 L LS Operator has a rated opening time of 13
sec, you should set the time at 20 or 25 seconds.
Check to see that there are no obstructions in the path
of the gate or that the hinges are not binding.

.
S
OLUTION
:
Make sure the Manual Release Mechanism has fully
engaged the worm screw operation of the operator.
Make sure that a flexible gate leaf is not the problem. If
the gate leaf flexes, then stiffen the gate or use a slower
operator.
WARNING!
Before you do any work on the control panel,
be sure to turn off the main power.
NOTE:
Any control panel specific information in the following applies to the 455 D control panel only.
