:
The operator can be used in a Master-Slave configuration to control the two leafs of a bi-parting gate. That can be done with a
wired or wireless connection. The wired connection should be the default choice if there is a way to bring a cable across the
gate opening. If that’s impractical you can use the wireless connection accessory WMS100 to establish the communication
between Master and Slave. In the latter case you need to make sure there is no metal blocking the line of sight between the
two operators, for example a metal gate with no openings.
To connect two operators together:
1. Determine which operator is the Master and which operator is the slave.
All external devices such as loop
detectors and safety devices must be wired directly to the Master unit.
If one gate travels further than the other
the gate that travels further must be the Master
2. Turn Slave Operator DIP Switch 3 to ON = SLAVE
3. Turn Master Operator DIP Switch 3 to OFF = MASTER
4. WIRED CONNECTION: in a separate conduit, run a 6-conductor cable (twisted pairs) between the Master operator
and the Slave operator. Make the connections on the Master/Slave Terminal Block following the schematic below.
(Recommended Wire: Outdoor Rated CAT 5 Cable. If shielded make sure the shield is connected on one side only)
OR
4. WIRELESS CONNECTION: Plug one WMS100 board on the RJ45 connector on the top left of the Master control
board and one on the Slave. Wire the 24V power to it from one of the accessory terminal blocks.
5. Power up the operators and verify that the SLAVE LEDs are blinking
