Mechanical System 1.3

The mechanical system of the tripod turnstile includes the chassis and the core component. The

chassis serves as a carrier for the tri-color indicator, Reader, and Access controller. The core

components primarily include the Motor, Frame, Bearing, Arm, and other essential elements.

Electronic Control System 1.4

The electronic control system of a tripod turnstile mainly consists of the Card Reader, Turnstile

Control Board, Access Controller, Alarm and traffic Indicator.

Card Reader: The reader reads the data on the card and transmits it to the Access Controller.

Turnstile Control Board: The turnstile control board serves as the control center of the system,

receiving signals from the access controller and photoelectric switch; and it makes logical

judgments and processes these signals, then subsequently sends executive commands to the traffic

indicator, motor, and alarm.

Access Controller: This component enhances convenience for authorized personnel by facilitating

entry while simultaneously restricting access for unauthorized individuals.

Tri-color Indicator: Displays the current passage status of the channel and guiding pedestrians to

pass through the channel in a safe and orderly manner. (Normal status: Blue; Passage allowed:

Green; Abnormal/Error status: Red)

Alarm: This system issues an alarm alert when the system detects unauthorized entry or illegal

access by pedestrians.

Working Principle 1.5

1. When connected to power, the tripod turnstile undergoes a Power-On Self-Test. If no issues are

detected during this process, the turnstile will operate normally.

Saturn-T1000 User Manual

2. When the card reader successfully reads a valid card, the peak buzzer emits a pleasant sound,

signalling to pedestrians that the card reading is successful. Simultaneously, the system

processes the information from the card, sending a signal to the turnstile control board to

request passage.

3. The turnstile control board receives the signal from the card reader, processes it

comprehensively, and sends an effective control signal to the indicator and motor. The traffic

indicator turns green, and the control board activates the electromagnet to open the gate.

Pedestrians can gently push the unlocked arm, and it will automatically rotate, allowing them

to pass through the channel following the guidance of the traffic indicator.

4. If a pedestrian enters the passage without successfully verifying their identification or with an

invalid card, the system will not grant passage. Only when a valid card is successfully confirmed

will the pedestrian be allowed to pass through the passage.

Note: Make sure the ground wire of the system is securely connected to avoid personal injuries or

other accidents.

Power-On Self-Test 1.6

1. Connect the tripod turnstile's power adapter to a 220V mains power source. Important: Ensure

that the tripod turnstile is properly grounded.

2. Power on the tripod turnstile and wait 30s to complete the self-check program.

3. Lift the arms manually, as shown in the diagram below:

Power Adapter

Saturn-T1000 User Manual

4. Use a two-way switch to test the proper functioning of the tripod turnstile, and ensure to check

that the traffic indicators are working correctly. In case of any issues, please contact the supplier

for assistance.

Status of Traffic Indicator 1.7

The tripod turnstile is in working state after power-on self-test. The traffic indicators provide

pedestrians with the appropriate passage indications.

Passage allowed: Abnormal/Error
