position. · Press remote (remotes included in kit are factory paired to the
motor). The sliding gate will
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.

Troubleshooting
Any troubleshooting work below done to the motor must be completed by a
licensed electrician and only whilst the power is off and the motor is
unplugged!
Problem The gate cannot open or close normally, and LED does not light.
The gate can only open, but cannot close.
Possible Reason 1. The power supply is disconnected. 2. Fuse is blown. 3. Control board X1 terminal wrongly wired. 1. Photocell wrongly wired. 2. Photocell wrongly installed. 3. Photocell is blocked by objects. 4. Sensitivity of obstacle is too high (Intelligent type). 5. Hall sensor parts damaged (Intelligent type).
Remote control doesn’t work.
Press OPEN, CLOSE button, the gate is not moving, motor has noise.
1. Battery level is too low. 2. Remote control not paired. 1. Capacitor damaged. 2. Capacitor is poor connected. 3. Gate moving is not smoothly
Not stop when running to opening or closing limit switch position.
1. The opening or closing limit switch is in opposite. 2. Magnetic limit switch badly installed.
Leakage switch tripped.
Power supply cable short circuit or motor wire short circuit.
Solution 1. Connect the power supply. 2. Check the fuse (FU) and replace if
blown. 3. Re-wiring according to user manual. 1. If not connect photocell,
please ensure the infrared port and GND port has a jumper wire; if connect
photocell, please ensure the wiring is correct and the photocell status is
N.C. 2. Ensure that the photocell mounting position can be mutually aligned.
3. Remove the obstacle. 4. Reduce the sensitivity of obstacle. 5. Replace hall
sensor parts. 1. Change the battery. 2. Pair the remote control to the gate
opener.
1. Change capacitor. 2. Check the capacitor wiring. 3. Adjust the motor or
gate according to the actual situation.
1. Check whether the limit switch wiring is consistent with the motor running
direction. 2. Check whether the distance and height between magnetic limit
switch and motor reaches to standard requirement.
