Auxiliary Inputs 1 (16) and 2 (18):
These digital inputs may be connected to the digital outputs of accessories and pro-
grammed to activate or control the gate operator in a number of different modes. Shorting pin 1 to pin 2 through a dry
contact activates the programmed settings for these input. These inputs are programmed in the “FUNCTION Auxiliary I/
O” menu.
LOOP Input:
(22) Dry contact input that can be programmed for an inductive safety loop or photo-eye detector. Shorting
the digital input to GND reverses a closing gate to the full open position. The opened gate is held opened for as long as
the LOOP input is active. (SAFETY)
LOOP 1 Input:
(24) Dry contact input that can be programmed for an inductive safety loop or photo-eye detector. Acti-
vating the LOOP 1 input maintains an OPEN gate fully open and a CLOSED gate fully closed until deactivated.
(SHADOW) Setting the LOOP1 input to “Photo Mode” causes the moving gate to stop, then reopens the gate when the
LOOP1 input is deactivated.
LOOP 2 Input:
(26) Dry contact input that can be programmed for an inductive safety loop or photo-eye detector. Acti-
vating the LOOP2 input (26) while the gate is opening cause the gate to close to the fully closed position. This loop input
is intended for use with safety sensors to prevent entrapment between the opening gate and an adjacent wall or struc-
ture.
Edge Input:
(28) This input may be configured as “DIGITAL” or “ANALOG” as required by the sensor type. When config-
ured as “DIGITAL”, this is a dry contact input; otherwise when configured as “ANALOG”, the input must measure
8200ohms. When the input is activated it stops the gate regardless of direction of travel, momentarily reverses it then
stops.
Exit Input:
(30) Dry contact input for a vehicle exit sensor. Opens gate from the closed position and holds gate open
with maintained input or reverses gate if closing.
Fire Input:
(32) Dry contact input for a fire department control switch. Opens the gate and holds the gate open until the
control switch is deactivated. This input is “hold to run”. Auto-close is disabled when this input is activated. Also clears
hard shutdown.

Commercial Gate Operator Accessory Out-
puts:
OUT1 and OUT2:
Individual, isolated relays
provide COMMON, NORMALLY OPEN, and
NORMALLY CLOSED dry contacts for switch-
ing accessories based on programming of the
“Auxiliary IO” function. These outputs are pro-
grammed in the “FUNCTION Auxiliary I/O”
menu.
Magnetic Lock:
Provides fused power (1.85A
max) and isolated relay COMMON, NORMAL-
LY OPEN, and NORMALLY CLOSED dry
contacts for electrically powered and main-
tained magnetic locks. The delay for magnetic
lock activation/deactivation may be adjusted
from 0 to 5 seconds.
Lamp:
Provides fused power (1.85A max) to
drive a flashing warning lamp to indicate gate
operation. This output is active when the gate
is operating (Opening and Closing). Sets the
amount of time the lamp accessory output is
activated prior to gate movement. Settings
from 0 to 5 seconds with a step of 0.5 se-
conds.
Alarm:
Provides fused power (0.5A @
12VDC) to drive an alarm siren to signal the
occurrence of a hard shutdown, caused by 2
consecutive entrapment events (signals). This
alarm output is reset by pressing the “Reset
Hard Shutdown” button on the front panel or
activating the “FIRE” input.
