Speed Control
The SPEED CONTROL dial controls the speed of the operator. The dial is
preset to minimum from the factory. Set the speed as low as possible for
the intended application.
90 degree travel time = 13-36 seconds.
NOTE: travel time will vary based on arm configuration. See page 12.
For dual gate setup, set the SPEED CONTROL dial on each operator to the
same setting or make sure the gate that closes first is set faster than the
second operator for smoothest operation.
After any speed adjustment:
1. Cycle the gate open and close to automatically relearn the forces.
2. Perform the Obstruction Test, see page 27.
Fine Tune the Force
Once the initial limits have been set, the REVERSAL FORCE DIAL on the control board is used for fine tuning the force where wind or environmental
changes may affect the gate travel. The REVERSAL FORCE DIAL is set to minimum at the factory.
Based on the length and weight of the gate it may be necessary to make additional force adjustments. The force setting should be high enough that the gate
will not reverse by itself nor cause nuisance interruptions, but low enough to prevent serious injury to a person. The force setting is the same for both the
open and close gate directions.
1. Open and close the gate with the TEST BUTTONS.
2. If the gate stops or reverses before reaching the fully open or closed position, increase the force by turning the force control slightly clockwise.
3. Perform the âObstruction Testâ after every limit, speed, and force setting adjustment see page 27.
