E8 Swing Automatic Gate. Revision 1.1.8 –1112

Trouble-Shooting.
Problem:
The system does not response when transmitter is pressed.
Solution:
Make sure the transmitter in good condition. Ensure that the battery is
functioning and the LED on the transmitter lights up when button is pressed.
Replace battery if transmitter only works at very close range to the receiver.
Check the receiver by removing the Control Box cover and view the inside of
the Black Receiver Box for insects.
Check the wiring of the receiver panel and make sure the power is connected
in correct polarity. Check the power from control board to ensure there is
12Vdc to receiver.
Try other optional activation devises such as Exit Button or Keypad. If
hardwired devices activate the gate but all transmitters do not, recheck the
Black Receiver Box.
Check arms (s) are working using the power directly from the
battery.
Check wires are connected properly to the control board.
Problem:
The gate does not fully open and close, or stops half way.
Solution:
Ensure there is no obstruction to the movement of the gate. This could also be
high resistance such as poor gate installation or high winds activating the anti-
obstruction sensing. This can be verified by releasing the gate to Emergency
release mode (remove the arms actuator from the gate). Manually push the
gate open and close to detect any obstruction.
Ensure that on the first setting setup, the gate is fully closed before the board is
initialized. Short distance detection will result in error of count for the total
time of the gate swing.
Ensure that the when the arm actuators are removed from the gate, the gate
does not have a tendency to swing open or close but stays stationery. As self-
opening or self-closing gate is a poorly constructed gate. Such a gate will
cause an uneven force for opening and closing stroke.
