GENERAL INFORMATION
General Information regarding the “PLC” type operators

These operators incorporate a combined Invertor/PLC in one for the driving and control of the gate.

There is no need for any limit switches, proximity switches or motor encoders as the PLC control system utilises
‘Advanced positioning control’, meaning the PLC always knows where the gate position is as it is driving.

The initial commissioning procedure sets this ‘advanced positioning control’ and therefore it is important to follow
the procedure to ensure the correct gate opening distance is set into the memory of the PLC control.

If the commissioning procedure fails, (eg the gate stops are in the wrong position and a incorrect distance is set)
you will need to contact Gate Drive Systems Australia and quote the Parameter 401 number of the invertor unit to
obtain another set up code)

IMPORTANT: The commissioning procedure does not require the cover to be on. However once the gate is
commissioned the cover will need to be fitted and the manual release door closed. This then ensures that the door
safety switch is closed and allows for correct operation.

Whenever the manual release door is opened or the power is taken off the operator, the gate operator will
automatically run slow for the first operation to allow the positioning system to realign itself. After realignment,
the gate will function normally.

As can be seen from the commissioning procedure, the commissioning is as easy as providing an input to the
controller, the operator will do it all for you!

Happy Automating!

EQUIREMENTS

240v 10A non earth leakage protected power supply where operator is mounted.

Low voltage cables from operator for access control. (Shielded cable if over 8m runs).

NSTALLATION

ETAILS
After reading the previous sections in this manual, and having checked for suitable installation, proceed as follows:-
Electrical Cabling

A suitably rated Isolator and 240v power supply should be available near to where the gate operator is to be
mounted.

Conduits and cabling preferably to enter through baseplate 'knockout' hole. The following dimensions will provide
measurements for the positioning of Conduits and the appropriate position for the mounting of the operator,
whether a GDS 450PI or a GDS 630PI.
Mechanical Installation

Ensure gate rolls easily and has been installed in a manner where there is no excessive friction or binding
occurring.

A concrete base approximately 600mm long x 300 wide x 300mm deep should be laid where the gate operator is to
be located.

IMPORTANT ensure there are gate stops firmly installed in the fully open and closed positions. These stops need
to be engineered and installed such that they will be strong enough to stop the gate should the gate fail to stop at
any time.

Remove the gate operator cover and position mounting plate and operator in the approximate mounting location.

Hold the rack next to the gate bottom rail and locate the operator the correct distance away from the gate rail (finer
adjustment can be made after).

Dynabolt or chemical anchor the bottom mounting plate to the concrete mounting pad using 12 x 100mm fixings.

Unscrew anticlockwise the manual disconnect knurled knob so the drive gear free wheels.

Fix the rack to the gate rail ensuring there is approximately 1mm - 2mm gap between the meshing of the teeth of
the rack and the drive gear (no more). Move the gate by hand from one end to the other while checking that the
rack is meshing correctly with the drive gear on the operator. Check also that the rack is centred around the middle
of the teeth on the drive cog
– tighten the mounting plate nuts.
