Installing the Receiver
Use the transmitter to check the range of the receiver
before permanently mounting it
.
Consider the following when mounting the receiver:
• Standard receiver cable length is 0 feet (receivers with a longer cable are available as special
order items;
call the GTO Sales Department
). NEVER splice receiver cable!
•
Run the cable through PVC conduit to protect it from damage.
• DO NOT run cable through metal conduit because the receiver signal range will be decreased.
• DO NOT run cable in conduit containing ac wiring.
• DO NOT mount receiver on a metal fence or post; doing so will decrease signal range.
• The receiver range can vary from 50 to 00 feet depending upon weather, topography, and
external interference.
•
DO NOT
mount upside down.
•
MOUNT
so that you have line of sight between remote and antenna.
•
MOUNT
3 feet away from AC voltage.

IMPORTANT:
For safety reasons the
obstruction setting or
Stall Force
on the GTO/
PRO® 2002XL control board comes from
the factory set at
MIN
(minimum). In many
gate installations this setting will need to be
adjusted to overcome the weight and size of
the gates.
The
Stall Force
potentiometer on the control
board operates like a volume control on a radio.
It controls the obstruction sensitivity (or the amount
of force the opener will apply to an obstruction)
before it automatically stops and reverses direction for
approximately two (2) seconds.
Use a small slotted screwdriver to turn the arrow in the center of
the potentiometer. Adjust the sensitivity from the MINIMUM position
where the gate operates without obstructing from its own weight or the
wind conditions in your area.
NOTE: You may need to increase the stall force in cold weather due to
increased resistance from gate hinges.
