Rev 20a
- Before starting installation, ensure that there is no point of friction during the entire movement of the gate and there is no danger of derailment. * Ensure that the Warning Signs are present. Necessary Tools: The following tools may be necessary to install the Gate opener. You will need screwdrivers, an electric drill, wire cutters and a wire stripper, a socket set, and possibly access to a welder. When install the opener, you should build a concrete pad to support the base plate of opener in order to maintain proper stability. The installation proceeds are as follows: 1.Dig a hole for a concrete pad which should be approximately 600 x 320 x 350mm (24 x 13x 14). It may protrude 100mm (4″) above ground and 250mm (10″) in depth underground. Increase the pad height if necessary to protect the system from flooding, heavy snow etc. 2. Prepare one or more conduits for the electrical cables before pouring concrete. Remember that cable conduits have to pass through the hole in the base plate. 3. Pour concrete and before it starts to harden, check that it is parallel to the gate leaf and perfectly level. 4. The four anchor bolts must be set into the concrete when it is poured, make sure the position of anchor bolts was placed according to the position of mounting holes on the base plate before concrete become harden. 5. Mount the base plate to the concrete pad. 6. Place the opener onto base plate. Check that it is perfectly parallel to the gate, and then screw the four bolts and washers supplied. It’s only temporary installation. Further adjustment will be required when install the rack.
Manual Operation
The opener should be put in the manual (emergency release) position before fitting the rack, installing the opener and limit switch. The process is as follows: 1) Take off the rubber stopple. 2) Insert the Release Keyprovidedand turn it in counter-clockwise 180° to disengage the clutch between the gear shaft and power output. Now the opener is in the manual operation.

Fit the Rack
There are two kinds of rack available as per your options, which are steel
reinforced plastic rack and galvanized steel rack. The galvanized steel rack
is usually used for the heavy duty gate.
A. Fit the plastic rack reinforced with steel
1. Start with gate in closed position 2. There are four sections of plastic
rack which is one meter length. (you can order extra rack from dealer if
necessary) 3. Put one end of rack section on the gear of opener as a temporary
support. Make rack level and mark the rack’s mounting holes (four holes for
light duty or six holes for heavy duty) on the gate. 4. Fit the rack by self-
threading screws. This kind of plastic rack is quieter and allows height
adjustments to be made even after it has been fixed. Please keep 1.0mm space
between the rack and the gear to avoid the weight of the gate effect on the
opener.
B. Fit the galvanized steel rack
1. Start with gate in closed position 2. There are four sections of steel
rack which is one meter length. (you can order extra rack from dealer if
necessary)
8
3. Put one end of rack section on the gear of opener as a temporary support.
Make rack level and mark the rack’s mounting holes (three holes) on the gate.
4. Weld the rack nut on the gate as mark and connect the rack to the gate
using the bolt provided. Before weld, please keep 1.0mm space between the rack
and the gear to avoid the weight of the gate effect on the opener.
Installation of the Magnets
Before install limit switch, make sure the gate opener is put in manual
operation. (the clutch connected with gear shaft is disengaged) and the mains
power supply is disconnected. Position the S&N Magnet Components approximately
on the gate and move the gate by hand to fix them in place.
Fit magnets bracket
Push the gate fully closed by hand. Locate and install the magnet bracket so
that the opener will stop at the desired close position when the close limit
switch approaches it. Push the gate fully open by hand. Locate and install the
magnet bracket so that the opener will stop at the desired open position when
the open limit switch approaches it. The magnet component with S pole outside
must be installed at left side and the magnet component with N pole outside
must be installed at right side from the view inside of property. Ensure
magnet center to align with the marked line above ! The magnets should be
20~30mm away from the Limit Switch Box. If it is too near or too far, the
switches will fail to work. Adjust the position of the magnets until the
positions of the opening and closing meet the requirement.
Warning: Improper magnets installation may cause the gate crash into end
barrier, which is very dangerous !
Important:
- Check that the rack teeth must engage the gear teeth throughout their full thickness. If not, adjust the position of the opener or/and place a few shims between the rack and gate. Manually slide the gate leaf to ensure the rack is proper on the gear of opener. Repeat same steps of first rack section to install the rest rack sections until proper length is reached. Cut away any excess of the rack (Note: rack length must be longer than actual travel of the gate) Thoroughly fasten the four nuts as well as spring washers onto expansion bolts tightly, enabling the opener is firmly secured on the concrete pad during the whole gate travel.
Connecting of AC Main Power Supply
WARNING: NEVER connect the gate opener to the power outlet before all the installations have been done. The power supply cord should be at least 3×0.75mm2 (3C×18AWG). Connect the live wire, neutral wire and earth wire to the “L”, “N” and “PE” terminals respectively. It is strongly recommended that an emergency stop switch (NOT PROVIDED IN PACKAGE) is installed in the electrical system which can be used in case of the remote control failure. You can connect the switch by the following steps:
9
1. Cut off the wire which has been connected between terminal 4 and 5 in

Setting of the Control Board
WARNING: Ensure the gate opener is Power Off when you make any adjustment of
the gate opener. Keep away from the path of the gate during you set the gate
opener system in case of the unexpected gate moving. Carefully adjust the DIP
switches to avoid the risk of machine damage and injury or death. Always ask
the help of professional technician /electrician if you have any question.
1. DIP Switches The DIP switches are used to set the running time of the
motor in midway mode, fine adjust the soft stop period of the motor, auto
close time of the gate opener and fast change the open/close direction which
is determined by the position of the gate opener installed. DIP Switch #1#2:
Running time of the motor in Midway Mode DIP Switch #1: ON 2 Seconds OFF 0
13
DIP Switch #2: ON 4 Seconds OFF 0 NOTE: The midway mode function would be disabled if both DIP switches are turned off. Factory default setting is disabled. The midway mode could be activated by pressing button B of the remote control when the gate is in the full closed position.
E.g.
Running time of the opener in midway mode is 2+4=6 seconds.
DIP Switch #3#5: Fine adjust the soft stop period of the motor DIP Switch #3: ON 1 Second OFF 0 DIP Switch #4: ON 2 Seconds OFF 0 DIP Switch #5: ON 3 Seconds OFF 0 NOTE: Every time you restart the gate opener after power off, you should use the access control device (such as remote, push button and etc.) to operate the gate opener to run for a complete opening cycle and a complete closing cycle to get the full opening time and the full closing time. You would achieve the soft stop in your next opening/closing cycle. Factory default soft stop time is 3 Second. You can turn the DIP switches on/off to fine adjust the soft stop time to meet your actual needs.
E.g.
The soft stop period of the motor is 1+2=3 seconds.
DIP Switch #6#7: Auto close time of the gate opener DIP Switch #6: ON 30 Seconds OFF 0 DIP Switch #7: ON 60 Seconds OFF 0 NOTE: The auto close function would be disabled if both DIP switches are turned to off (factory default setting).
E.g.
Auto close time of the gate opener is 30+60=90 seconds.
DIP Switch #8: Left/Right open
14
2. Potentiometers Potentiometer A is used to adjust the close stall force the
gate operator. Turn clockwise to increase the stall force, and turn it
counter-clockwise to decrease the stall force. Potentiometer B is used to
adjust the open stall force the gate operator. Turn clockwise to increase the
stall force, and turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the stall force.
WARNING: Photocell is highly recommended to be installed with the gate opener
as entrapment protection for safety when you set stall force to maximum.
Test the Reversing Sensitivity
For the sake of safety, it is very important to test the reversing sensitivity
as soon as the control board set is finished. The reversing sensitivity
adjustment is inverse correlation with stall force adjustment in potentiometer
A and B. In other word, the stall force level is higher; the reversing
sensitivity level is lower. Put an immobile object along the gate path, and
then operate the gate to strike it during the close cycles. The gate must
reverse as soon as object is struck with it. If the gate doesn’t reverse,
please increase the reversing sensitivity by turning the potentiometer in
counter-clockwise direction. (Turning the stall force potentiometer toward to
MIN position to increase the reversing sensitivity) Note 1: If the sensitivity
setting is too higher, the gate will stop or reverses very easy by itself
while there is little obstruction or resistance such as strong wind or heavy
snow sometimes. Note 2: Always check the gate reversing function every each
time of control board set or restart after power off.
How to Program or Erase the Remote
The remote MUST be programed to the opener BEFORE OPERATING. Please follow the
steps to program the remote.
Activate the opener only when gate is in full view, free of obstruction and
properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave gate area while gate is in
motion. DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN to operate push button or remote. DO NOT ALLOW
CHILDREN TO PLAY NEAR THE GATE.
If you purchase additional remote controls, the gate opener must be programmed
to accept the new remote code.
If you lose one of any remote control, please erase and reprogram all other
remote controls to have a new code for safety.

Troubleshooting
Have a multi-meter to check voltage and continuity. Use caution when checking
high voltage terminals.
Symptom
Possible Solution(s)
The opener does not run. Power LED is OFF.
1. Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged into the mains outlet. 2. Check if the output voltage of the transformer is 24VAC. If the voltage measures 0, the transformer may be overheated or damaged. Turn power off and allow board to cool for several minutes then reset. Replace the transformer if the symptom still exists. 3. Check the fuse in the control board. Replace the fuse if it was burnt out. 4. Check the status of the over-discharged LED on the solar controller, the voltage of the batteries is too low to power the gate opener if the LED is ON. Please wait the batteries are charged to full. 5. The solar controller could be faulty if the over-discharged LED is ON when the voltage of the batteries is normal (>24VDC). 6. Check the control board. Replace the control board if necessary.
The opener does not run. Power LED is ON.
1. Check to be sure the beam is not blocked if a photocell is used as a secondary entrapment prevention device. If a photocell is not used, photocell terminal of the control board should be shorted by a jumper wire. 2. Check the motor. Release the clutch then disconnect the wires of the motor from terminal 1 and 2. Connect the wires to 24V battery directly, the motor should run, and then exchange the wires, the motor should run in the opposite direction. If the motor runs in both directions, please check the other parts listed below. 3. Check the limit switch. Use a jumper wire to short terminal 4 with terminal 3 and 5, and then use a keying device to operate the opener, replace the limit switch if the motor could run in both directions. 4. Check the control board. Replace the control board if necessary.
Remote control does not work.
1. The indicator light of remote control is not on. Check the battery in your remote control. Replace the battery if necessary. 2. The distance you use the remote is too far away from the opener. Try it again closer. 3. Remote control is not suitable for receiver. After making sure the codes are correct, erase remote controls and then re-program the codes in the device. 4. Check the control board. Replace the control board if necessary.
The gate starts but it is immediately stop or reverse
1. Check the HALL sensor board in the side of the gear box has been connected to the control board tightly. 2. Check that the clutch is adjusted properly and is not slipping. 3. The opening force or closing force is adjusted too small. Turn the Potentiometer A&B to increase the force. 4. Disconnect the gate from the gate opener and check that the gate slides freely without any binding. 5. Check the control board. Replace the control board if necessary.
17
The gate opens, but stops and will not return.
1. Please note the two limit magnets are different: one is N pole and another is S pole. Please try to exchange the two magnets. 2. Please try to exchange the limit switch wires CL (close) and OP (open). 3. Maybe the magnet was installed in the wrong position so it inducts both switches. Adjust the magnets to the correct position refer to the manual. 4. Check the control board. Replace the control board if necessary.
The gate can open, but fails to close.
1. Photocell is obstructed. Remove obstruction. 2. The limit switch is failed. Use a jumper wire to short terminal 4 with terminal 3 and 5, and then use a keying device to operate the opener, replace the limit switch if the motor could run in both directions. 3. Check the control board. Replace the control board if necessary.
Maintenance
Every six months check the following items for proper operation of the unit.
Lubricate shafts and gears. Keep opener clean at all times. Check and
tighten anchors bolts. Check for loose or corroded wire Ensure the opener
is well earthed, and correctly terminated. Always check the Stop/Reverse in
case of obstruction function when performing any maintenance. If this function
