IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF
INJURY
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. DO NOT START INSTALLATION UNTIL
YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE DIRECTIONS. IF THERE IS SOMETHING YOU DO
NOT UNDERSTAND, PLEASE CALL US.
NEVER let children operate or play with gate controls.
Locate the control station and make sure it is (a) within sight of the gate
and (b) at a minimum height of 5 feet so small children cannot reach it.
Install the enclosed entrapment warning signs next to the control station and
in a prominent location.
For operators equipped with a manual release, instruct the end user on the
correct operation of the manual release. Use the manual release only when the
gate is not moving. It is advised that the power be turned off.
Always keep people and objects away from the gate. No one should cross the
path of a moving gate.
The gate operator must be tested monthly. The gate must reverse on contact
with a rigid object, or stop when an object activates the non-contact
sensor(s). Always re-test the operator after adjusting the limits and/or
force. Failure to adjust and re-test the gate operator properly may cause
severe injury or death.
Keep gate(s) properly maintained. Have a qualified service technician make
repairs to gate hardware and make proper adjustments to gate operator.
This gate entrance/exit is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use a separate
entrance.
There is nothing on a gate operator that is easily repaired or adjusted
without a great deal of experience.
Call a qualified gate service technician who knows your gate operator.

FRONT MOUNT INSTALLATION
REAR MOUNT INSTALLATION
ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION INSTALLATION
- A minimum of (2) monitored entrapment protection devices are REQUIRED for each entrapment zone.
- An entrapment zone is a location or point of contact where a person can become entrapped between a moving gate and a rigid object.
- The operator is equipped with an inherent entrapment protection system (ERD).
- The gate operator requires an external monitored entrapment protection device (non-contact photoelectric sensor or contact edge) for each entrapment zone prior to gate operation. The operator cycles power to the external entrapment protection device and checks for device signals. If the operator does not receive the correct feedback from the device, the gate will not operate.
LOOP LAYOUT
- Below is a typical loop layout. When connecting to an All-O-Matic circuit board, use the following:
- SAFETY LOOP – Normally Closed (N.C.) Contacts
- EXIT/OPEN CMD – Normally Open (N.O.) Contacts (See page 27 for LPR-1 loop rack wiring)
- Wires MUST be twisted from the exit point of the loop saw cut to the loop detector.
- Twist loop wires 6 turns per foot, as shown below. Improper twisting of wires can cause loop issues.
- When using an inside and outside safety loop, loops must be WIRED IN SERIES.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
OPERATORS MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED!
- All gate operators MUST be properly grounded. This minimizes or prevents damage due to electrical charge, such as a near lightning strike or an electrical static discharge.
- Use a single wire for the ground. DO NOT splice two wires for the ground. If the wire breaks or is cut, replace it with a single length wire. NEVER use two wires for the ground.
- Check the local city code for proper earth ground rod type and grounding procedures.
- Use UL listed conduits for power wire enclosure.
- Use a minimum of a 20-amp, dedicated circuit for power.
Power | 115 VAC 50/60Hz | 230 VAC 50/60Hz Single Phase |
---|---|---|
LINE 1 | 115V HOT | 230V LINE 1 |
LINE 2 | 115V NEUTRAL | 230V LINE 2 |
GND | GROUND | GROUND |
GATE TRAVEL ADJUSTMENT
Locate the limit switches (limit switches will be in the limit box on SL-150 DC) and follow the steps below:
- Turn the power OFF on the operator.
- Push the limit lock plate down (on the SL-45 DC, SL-90 DC, and SL-100 DC) or outwards (on the SL-150 DC)
- Turn the limit nut toward the switch to DECREASE travel and away from the switch to INCREASE travel.
- Place limit plate back to its locked position. (MUST be done for gate to hold its limits)
- Turn the power ON to the operator.
- Run the gate operator open and close. If additional adjustment is needed, repeat the steps.
- When limits are set, move the gate to the closed position. Press and release “RESET” on the circuit board and run the gate one uninterrupted cycle (full open and full close) to learn the slow down.
SL-150 DC CLUTCH ADJUSTMENT
The SL-150 DC gearbox is equipped with an internal clutch to protect the
operator when gate is reversed in mid-cycle.
The clutch comes from the factory set at 60 lbs. of torque. In some
applications, where the gates are heavier than normal, the clutch may require
some adjustment to increase the amount of torque. It is important to have the
clutch tight enough to be able to move the gate without slipping. It is as
important to not over tighten the clutch, as it is a method of protecting the
operator.
Follow these instructions to adjust the clutch when necessary:
- To increase the torque, use a pipe wrench to turn the clutch nut clockwise .
- Turn the nut 1/2 a turn at a time until the operator is able to move the load of the gate without the clutch slipping.
- Once the operator is able to move the gate without the clutch slipping, turn the nut one full turn. This will allow the operator to move the gate, but also slip when the gate is reversed mid cycle or in the event the gate gets jammed.
GATE OPENING DIRECTION SETTING
- Use OPEN L/R” dipswitch (#8) to change the opening direction of the operator.
- The direction of gate opening is determined from behind the gate operator.
- LEDs will show opening and closing direction when the gate is moving.
- OPEN L/R switch “OFF” is for left hand opening
- OPEN L/R switch “ON” is for right hand opening
PROGRAMMABLE RELAY AND LEAF DELAY
RELAY SETTINGS
Board model ALL-BLDC includes a programmable relay (N.O.) with four different
configurations.
See table below for switch settings. Use the “Leaf Delay” potentiometer to
adjust the delay time from 0 to 6 seconds.
-
1 second pulse for every open start cycle – Typically used for a cycle counter
-
“ON” when the gate is in motion
– Typically used for an audible alarm or strobe light to warn when the gate is in motion. -
Alarm system output
– Activates the relay when the gate is forced open -
“ON” when gate is not fully closed
– Typically used for a gate position indicator
S1 | S2 | RELAY FUNCTION |
---|---|---|
OFF | OFF | ONE SECOND PULSE FOR EVERY OPEN START |
ON | OFF | ON WHEN GATE IS IN MOTION |
OFF | ON | ALARM SYSTEM OUTPUT |
ON | ON | ON WHEN GATE IS NOT FULLY CLOSED |
DELAY SETTINGS
The ALL-BLDC board includes a delay option for open or close cycles. This
delay option is most commonly used on swing gate applications. However, some
slide gate applications may require a pre-warn strobe light or siren.
In these applications this delay could be used for the pre-warn delay in
conjunction with the RELAY function ON WHEN GATE IN MOTION.
Use the dip-switch 3 to set the desired delay direction.
- Flip the dip-switch 3 to the OFF position for the delay on opening direction
- Flip the dip-switch 3 to the ON position for delay on closing direction
- Use leaf delay potentiometer to adjust the delay
- It has adjustment from 0-6 seconds.
- Turn clockwise for less time
- Turn counter-clockwise for more time
ELECTRONIC REVERSING DEVICE
(ERD) ADJUSTMENT
All BLDC boards are equipped with an Electronic Reversing Device (ERD), which
will cause the gate to reverse direction when it comes in contact with an
obstruction.
The amount of force required to reverse the gate’s direction depends on the
ERD sensitivity setting.
The ERDs must be adjusted for the operator to provide regular, reliable & safe
operations. If the gate reverses direction on its own without hitting an
obstruction, the ERD is too sensitive. If the gate does not reverse when it
hits an obstruction, the ERD is not sensitive enough.
The gate operator ERDs shall be tested and adjusted every six months by a
qualified technician.
TIMER ADJUSTMENT AND RADIO SETTING
DIP SWITCH FUNCTIONS
TIMER
TIMER switch “ON” activates the automatic close timer.
RADIO
RADIO switch “ON” allows the radio receiver to override the automatic close
timer.
OSC
OSC switch “ON” allows the radio receiver to stop and reverse the gate in any
direction. During a cycle, the first signal stops the gate. A second signal
reverses the gate.
FAIL SC/SF
ON for Fail-Safe: Upon power failure, board will monitor battery voltage to
make sure gate opens before battery completely drains. OFF for Fail-Secure:
Upon power failure, gate will run until battery is low and lock closed.
1-PASS
1-PASS switch “ON” allows the gate to open until one vehicle goes over the
safety loop. Once the vehicle has cleared the loop, the gate will stop and
close. If a second vehicle goes over the loop while the gate is closing, the
gate will stop. The vehicle must get off of the loop before the gate continues
to close, forcing the second vehicle to present valid credentials. This is a
true one pass, anti-tailgating feature to be used with safety loops.
SLAVE
This feature is used in dual gate applications. The SLAVE switch will be “ON”
only on the slave operator. All other dip switches will be “off”. SLAVE switch
will be “OFF” on the master operator. Set desired dip switch settings on the
master operator only.
AUTO OPEN
This feature is to automatically open the gate on power interruption. It is a
very particular feature used in areas where the fire department requires the
gate to open automatically after a power outage.
Set this dip switch “ON” when this feature is desire.
OPEN L/R
OPEN L/R switch “ON” is used for right hand opening of the gate. The “OFF”
position is used for left hand opening of the gate.
LED DIAGNOSTICS
MODE
Blinks once every two seconds when there is a problem with the motor hall
sensor feedback. Blinks twice every two seconds when a motor overload is
detected. Blinks three times every two seconds when the gate is jammed.
RADIO
ON when the RADIO input is activated (closed circuit to common).
EXIT
ON when the EXIT input is activated (closed circuit to common).
PHANTOM LOOP
ON when the PHANTOM LOOP input is activated (closed circuit to common).
SAFETY LOOP

ON while the gate is in the open cycle.
CLOSE-LIMIT
ON while the limit nut is activating the close limit switch.
OPEN-LIMIT
ON while the limit nut is activating the open limit switch.
LOW-BATTERY
ON when the batteries are low.
ALARM
Blinks every 30 seconds (alarm will also beep) when the batteries are low,
bad, or disconnected. Turns on for 5 minutes (alarms also goes off) when the
operator goes into shut down mode due to the gate hitting an obstruction
(ERD).
M/S LINK
ON when master/slave communication is active.
AC/PWR ON
ON when AC power is on.
TIPS: When troubleshooting, it is important to note what lights are ON. It is
very helpful to pay attention to the lights as they tell us what the boards is
doing and what inputs are active.
When calling ALL-O-MATIC for technical support please have the name of the
lights that are ON in the control board. This will speed up the process to get
the gate operator up and running.
ACCESSORY CONNECTIONS
The circuit board has 12/24VDC terminals that provide up to 750mAmps on 24VDC
and 500mAmps on 12VDC to power accessories such as loop detectors, keypads,
etc. If the total current draw of your accessories exceeds the rated current
for any of the 12/24VDC terminals, a separate power supply (transformer) is
required.
When installing a safety loop detector or pedestrian switch (STOP_CMD), make
sure to remove the black jumper between the COMMON and SAFETY terminal for the
safety detector and/or black jumper between STOP_CMD and COMMON for pedestrian
switch.

MONITORED ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION DEVICE CONNECTIONS
- There are 2 types of sensors that can be connected to the gate operator for UL 325 monitored entrapment compliance: non-contact sensors (photo eye) and contact sensors (edge sensors).
- Monitored entrapment protection devices use 4 wires to connect to the board. From the device, connect the RELAY COMMON to the board COMMON and the NORMALLY CLOSED relay contact to the assigned MON_OPEN or MON_CLOSE input. Connect the power wires to the COMMON and MON-12/24VDC.
- IMPORTANT: You must use the MON-12/24VDC to properly monitor entrapment protection devices. To turn this voltage on for initial setup, press reset button on the board.Do not use the 24 VDC terminal on the board’s terminal strip.
- NOTE: The power to the MON-12/24VDC terminal will be off when the gate is at rest (not moving). It will be normal to see the MON_OPEN and MON_CLOSE LEDs when the gate is closed. If the auto close timer is OFF it will do the same when the gate is at rest in the open position. Also, if no devices are connected both of these lights will stay ON.
- Please refer to the device manufacturer wiring instructions for details (on next page), making sure to follow the normally closed wiring directions. Some devices may work on monitoring interfaces other than normally closed.
- Should there be a need for more than 1 entrapment protection device for each direction, use a multi-input module from Miller Edge (model: MIM-62).

WIRING ENTRAPMENT DEVICE TO DC BOARD
(RED, BLUE AND
GOLD BOARDS)
PLUG-IN DETECTOR INSTALLATION
- The SL-90 DC, SL-100 DC and SL-150DC models come equipped with the pre-wired LPR-2 loop rack for safety and exit plug in loop detectors, making installation quick and efficient.
- Hardwired loop detectors with harnesses can also be installed. The circuit board has 12 VDC and 24 VDC terminals to power the detector of your choice. See “Accessory Connections” page for wiring instructions.
- Wire one or more safety devices in series with the loop rack wires. To do this, remove the white wire (N.C) from the loop rack off of the SAFETY terminal on the circuit board and wire nut to the COM of the additional device. The N.C. contact of the additional device will now go on the SAFETY terminal of the board.
- IMPORTANT: Use different frequencies for each loop detector to eliminate interference.
THREE BUTTON STATION CONNECTION
- A three button station and reset push button are integrated on the board to make limit and ERD adjustments easier.
- An external three button station may also be installed. See diagram below for wiring instructions.
- NOTE: STOP_CMD jumper must be removed if a three button station is installed.
MASTER/SLAVE CONNECTION
BEFORE CONNECTING MASTER/SLAVE COMMUNICATION WIRES, TAKE THE FOLLOWING
STEPS:
-
Test and adjust the limit switches and ERDs for each operator as stand alone machines.
-
Once the machines have been adjusted, turn SLAVE dip switch “ON” to the slave board.
Press the RESET button on the slave board. -
Connect the master/slave communication wires to “DATA -” and “DATA +”.
The “M/S LINK” LED should be “ON” on both machines. . -
Connect all accessories to the master operator. Accessories installed on the slave operator will not work.
MAGNETIC/SOLENOID LOCK CONNECTION
Magnetic lock installation requires a step down transformer with the
appropriate voltage for the specific lock accessory. Most operators include a
120VAC outlet for the step down transformer.
The SL-45DC does not include a 120VAC outlet.
Connections: Plug the lock device transformer to the 120VAC outlet plug.
For Magnetic Lock: Wire nut one wire from transformer directly to one wire of
the magnetic lock.
The other wire from transformer will be connected to the board relay plug COM
input and the other wire of the magnetic lock connects to the board MAG relay
output. See illustration below.
For Solenoid Lock: Wire nut one wire from transformer directly to one wire of
the solenoid lock.
The other wire from transformer will be connected to the board relay plug COM
input and the other wire of the solenoid lock connects to the board SOL relay
output. See illustration below.
RADIO RECEIVER CONNECTION
There are two types of receivers: 3-wire and 4-wire:
3 wire receivers can mount on the radio receiver terminal strip located
outside of the control box.
For 4 wire receivers, connect the relay contact wires to terminals 1 (COMMON)
and 2 (RELAY/RADIO) on the receiver terminal strip located outside of the
control box (one wire on each terminal). For power connect the black(negative)
wire to terminal 1 (COMMON) and the red (positive) wire to terminal 3
(+12/24VDC) on the receiver terminal strip as shown below.
RADIO dip switch ON allows the radio receiver to override the automatic close
timer. See TIMER adjustment page for more details.
SOLAR PANEL CONNECTION
The solar panel input requires a minimum of a 24VDC, 40 Watt panel. The
charging circuit is limited by 80 watt maximum. With (2) 14Ah, 12VDC
batteries, a receiver and (2) monitored entrapment devices connected, this set
up will provide about 10 cycles/day.
Be sure to use the SOLAR input for solar panels. The on board solar battery
regulator offers a MPPT feature that makes it more efficient than other types
of regulators.
For a solar installation, upgrade the batteries according to usage. When the
application requires more than 80 watts of solar power, an external charge
controller regulator is necessary. See next page for external solar system.
For information on solar applications (solar panel sizes, battery size, etc.),
please call All-O-Matic.
EXTERNAL SOLAR SYSTEM INSTALLATION
When using an external solar package, connect batteries straight into the
BATTERY input. The batteries will need to be upgraded to meet application
requirements. See wiring below.
For information on solar applications (solar panel sizes, battery size, etc.),
please call All-O-Matic.
IMPORTANT: When more than two solar panels are needed, special wiring
precautions must be taken to prevent damage to batteries and/or charge
controller regulator. If the panels are 12VDC they must be wired in series to
make 24VDC. If 24VDC panels are used they must be wired in
parallel.

TECHNICAL TIPS
Board says “opening/closing”, but the gate does not move.
– Check the fuse on the circuit board. If the fuse is blown (the LED next to
the fuse will be on), replace the fuse. If the gate goes back into operation,
make sure that the gate is not binding or hitting either of the positive
stops and/or catch. If the fuse blows again (immediately), the impact has
shorted the transistor(s) on the board and the board will need to be
repaired.
– Check the motor harness. Make sure the connector is in tight and that none
of the wires are loose.
Radio and Monitored Power jumpers
– Jumpers come on 12VDC from the factory. The radio jumper is located on the
top left of the board. The monitored power jumper is located to the right of
the “12VDC/GROUND/24VDC” green terminal, underneath the relay. (NOTE: The
1090 Multicode receiver must have 24VDC to work) The 10 amp fuse on the EMI
board keeps blowing
– Turn off the power, disconnect one of the white wires from the bridge
rectifier and replace the fuse. Turn the power back on. If the fuse does not
blow immediately, the bridge rectifier needs to be replaced.
– If the fuse blows with the white wire disconnected, make sure the MOVs (blue
wafer components) or traces on the back of the EMI board have not burned.
Check voltages from the EMI board, transformer, bridge rectifier, etc. to see
where the voltage issue is occurring.
Learning the slow down for the open and close limits
– Get the gate in the fully open or close position. Press and release “RESET”
on the circuit board. Run the gate one full cycle (full open and full close)
without interruption. The first cycle may run slower while the board is
learning and will run full speed the second cycle.
The gate is running slow
– Make sure that the variable speed potentiometer is at 100%.
– Follow the steps above to learn the slow down on the board.
Technical Support
– Technical Support is available in English and Spanish, Monday-Friday from
7:00 am to 3:30 pm PST

Advance Replacement/ Repair and Return Policy
– We advance replace items within the first (2) years of the operator date. In
order to get an advance replacement, you must call our tech support and
troubleshoot from the job site. If the item is determined to be defective, we
will issue the technician a RMA number to give to the distributor. The
distributor will send us a PO for the advance replacement item. Please note
that any warranty item over (2) years will be repair and return only.
– We repair defective boards (including boards out of warranty) at no charge,
provided that the board components are still available (applicable to boards
over (15) years old) and that the board was not damaged by a power surge or
has evidence of water damage. You can send the board in directly to us or
send it to us through your distributor. We do our best to get the boards out
1-2 days after we receive it.
