begin to close. · The limit switch stop will hit the limit switch and the sliding gate will stop. · When the gate stops, measure the distance remaining between the sliding gate and the desired
closed position. · You have now determined the closed position of the sliding gate when the limit switch stop hits
the limit switch. · Adjust the limit switch stop from the measurement you have taken to get your final gate closed
position. The ideal closed final position for the gate frame is 10-15mm from closed gate end catch.
Testing the Open Position · Press remote, the sliding gate will begin to open. · The limit switch stop will hit the limit switch and the sliding gate will stop. · When the gate stops, measure the distance remaining between the sliding gate and the desired
open position. · You have now determined the open position of the sliding gate when the limit switch stop hits
the limit switch · Adjust the limit switch stops from the measurement you have taken to get your final gate open
position. The ideal open final position for the gate frame is 10-15mm from the gate stop.
To Reset: · When setting new limit stop positions please ensure that you turn the power off and
then on again. Turning the power off will reset the limit stop memory, allowing for new limit switch stop positions to be recognized by the motor.

Now the basic open and closed positions are set, for further setting functions and adjusting parameters, please refer to pages 16-29 in this manual.

Connecting Infrared Photocells
The below steps must be completed by a licensed electrician.

Highly recommend the use of infrared photocells as an additional safety feature.

While closing, if the ray of the Infrared Photocell is blocked, the gate will stop and reverse immediately, to protect user and property security. To install photocells, connect wiring as per Figure 25. You must remove the wire jumper between GND and LR on X5 terminal (refer to Figure 26). The distance between photocell receiver and photocell transmitter should not be less than 2 meters; otherwise, the induction effect of photocell may be affected.
