LOCKING THE GATE ARM AT SECURE
FACILITIES
The purpose in leaving the gate arm with a slight
bend in it (i.e. turning the set screw to offset the
over travel stop) is to lessen the transference of
energy along the gate arm during gate strikes.
With the gate arm bent at a slight angle, it can
absorb more of the impact and possibly cause
less damage to the gear box in the SwingSmartDC
operator.
At facilities that require higher security, you may
want to consider straightening the gate arm
to “lock” it in place so pushing the gate open
becomes much more difficult.
Some aspects to consider, if you want to limit
opportunities to force the gate open:
z
Turn ON the Force Open Alert in the User Menu
by setting the menu item FA to 1. When set to 1
and the gate is forced open, a 3-second buzzer
alerts the surrounding area that the gate is being
forced off its closed limits. The gate operator
attempts to close the gate, but if the gate does
not begin to fully close within 4 seconds, the
motor turns off and the buzzer continues for
another 30 seconds. ALERT 1 - FORCED OPEN
appears on the display. (An OPEN or CLOSE
command clears the alert and resets the display.)
z
Fully straighten the gate arm, so it is in a straight
“locked” position. Throughout the instructions
found in this manual, it states that a bend in the
gate arm is critical to offset the damage that
may be inflicted to the gate operator during a
gate strike. If the purpose is to use excessive
measures to keep the gate closed, consider fully
straightening the gate arm during installation.
Straightening the gate arm after installation will
require loosening the set screw and moving the
gate bracket or other gate hardware.
z
Lock the movement of the gate using an external
method, such as a locking chain.
NOTICE
Keep the taper clamp tight as explained in
the procedures on the previous page. Do not
overtighten the taper clamp. Overtightening
the taper clamp may cause excessive wear to
the clutch mechanism or damage to the taper
clamp causing it to stick during normal gate
operation.
