Abbreviated Installation Instructions

(For those who don't have time!)

GDS 240PP operator

Place the operator in correct position. Pinion wheel to be parallel to the gate, and stepped out to allow for width of rack once it is mounted onto the gate frame. Mark out fixings and fix operator to the concrete pad.

Fix rack to the gate frame keeping 1mm-2mm clearance between the rack teeth and Pinion wheel

Once the rack is fixed move the gate and sight the rack moving over the pinion wheel, check that most of the pinion wheel meshes with the rack. Make sure rack runs freely over the pinion wheel, any tights spots should be corrected by adjusting the rack height. Check the operator is firmly bolted down to the concrete pad.

Ensure stops are installed on the gate for the fully closed and fully open positions.

Connect required P.E Beams. Fit limit brackets to actuate at gate end positions. Connect Power supply. Turn on Power.

To commission the gate, move the gate to the half way position and tighten the knurled wheel (Clockwise) engaging the clutch assembly. Hold in the clutch door switch in to allow gate operator to function.

Press the opening button located under the dip switches to begin opening cycle, ensure the gate travels in accordance with the open and close status leds.

If not, reverse the M1 open and M1 close wires at the CB-6 M1 terminals.

Also check the limit switches correspond with M1 OP and M1 CL limit switch led indicators ( the led will turn off when the limit switch is activated), if not, reverse both open and closed limit switch input wires.

Set the run timing by switching the run /set switch into set, with the gate at full closed position, press and hold the open button until the gate operates the open limit, then keep holding the button for a further 5 seconds, then release. Do the same on the close cycle from the full open position.

Switch run/set switch back to run.

Automation settings and operating modes are able to be adjusted via the CB6 board, refer to manual for further instructions.

If needed, adjust the limit switch brackets for the open and closed cycles, ensuring that the gate does not slam into the stop positions before actuating the limits.

NSTALLATION

1.

Check that the gate runs smoothly throughout it’s travel and does not bind anywhere.

2.

IMPORTANT Ensure gate stops are fitted at the fully open and closed positions . These stops need to be engineered and installed in such a way that they will be strong enough to stop the gate should the limits fail at any time.

3.

Position the sliding gate operator on the concrete mounting pad and using a length of rack held onto the gate rail, adjust the operator at a location where the pinion gear meshes fully onto the rack.

4.

Ensure the pinion wheel face is parallel with the gate rail and mark the holes through the mounting plate for fixing.

5.

Dynabolt mounting plate to concrete pad using 12mm x 100mm dynabolts.

6.

Position gate operator so rack will fully mesh onto pinion gear.

7.

Loosen manual release knob on backside of gearbox (anticlockwise) and then start attaching rack to the gate frame ensuring that the rack meshes onto the pinion gear with 1 – 2mm clearance.

8.

Rack is normally tek screwed to gate rail. After fixing the rack for the full length of the gate, run the gate back and check the rack meshes to the pinion gear without being too high or too low.

Electrical Connections

Supply

• Connect a 10A 240v supply to din rail terminals labelled A & N. Connect earth to din rail terminal.

Control

•

If cable runs are over 10m, connect the shielded cable to the chassis.

Control Inputs

The P.E, OPN and STP inputs require a normally closed switch contact and therefore should be shorted to the COM terminal if not used. This is done via bridging links already on the circuit board (bottom left corner) The CLS, OSC and PED inputs require a normally open switch contact and therefore should be left unconnected if not used. All the switch inputs of this control board including the limit switch inputs require a switch contact only. Do not connect any switches which provide a voltage to the control board as this will damage the control board. If the inputs are 12/24v or has long wiring associated with it use an IM-1 module to isolate it from the control board’s input. The IM-1 is available from the manufacturer.

Powering Accessories

Accessories, which require a 24v AC supply, can be powered from the transformer output used to power the control board and motor. However, the transformer’s current capacity must be checked to allow for the extra power required by the accessories.

Locks & Lights

Use the lock output terminals to switch the 12 volts to an electric lock (if fitted). The load switched by the lock output terminals must not exceed 30v AC / DC @ 5Amps. If an electro magnetic lock is used, change one wire on the control board lock output to the normally closed output. Use the light relay module (if fitted) to switch the applied voltage to a light. The load switched by the light relay module must not exceed 240v AC / 30v DC @ 10

Amps.

Mode Selection

Using the mode selection dip-switches select the desired operating modes. Note the times associated with the parameters marked with an * can be changed. The auto-close times can be changed using the procedure in the following section. See detailed instruction manual for details how to change the other parameters.

P OSITION 1 Synchronising Delay

OFF - No delay

ON - Motor 1 starts to open 2 seconds * before Motor 2 & Motor 2 starts to close 2 seconds * before Motor 1.

P OSITION 2 Pulse Lock Output

OFF - Lock output is activated for the entire motor drive cycle.

ON - Lock output pulses for 0.3 seconds* at the start of each drive cycle.

P OSITION 3 Light Outputs Warning

OFF - Optional light module controls a light with timer which turns light off after 60seconds*.

ON - Optional light module controls a warning light which activates whenever motors are on.

P OSITION 4 Swipe Mode (OSC Input)

OFF - OSC input terminal has standard Open, Close, Stop action.

ON - OSC input terminal will only open the door/gate. The input also resets the P.E triggered auto-close mode so that the P.E input will need to be triggered again before a P.E auto-close cycle will be initiated.

P OSITION 5 M 2 Outputs Status

OFF - The M2 output controls second motor

ON - The M2 output controls status lights

P OSITION 6 P.E Stops Close Cycle

OFF - Activating the P.E input while motors are closing causes the motors to reverse.

ON - Activating the P.E input while motors are closing causes the motors to stop but not reverse.

7

P OSITION 7 P.E Stops Open Cycle

OFF - Activating the P.E input while motors are opening is ignored by the controller.

ON - Activating the P.E input while motors are opening causes the motors to stop.

P OSITION 8 P.E Triggered Auto Close

OFF - Not selected

ON - Selects the P.E triggered auto-close mode which causes the motors to auto-close if the P.E input is activated then released. (Auto-close delay time is 0 seconds*)

P OSITION 9 Pedestrian Auto-Close

OFF - No pedestrian access auto-close

ON - Selects auto-close in the pedestrian access mode. (Auto-close delay time is 15 seconds*)

P OSITION 10 Standard Auto Close

OFF - Not selected

ON - Selects standard auto-close mode which will close the motors after fully opening.(Auto-close delay time is

30 seconds*)

Setting Cycle Timers & Auto Close Times

The control board has pre-set cycle times which are used to set the maximum time the controller will drive the motors in the open and closed directions. The pre-programmed time for the open and close cycle timer’s is 60 seconds. The control board also has a pre-set pedestrian access time of 5 seconds which is intended to open the motor connected to M1 output only part way. If these default times do not suit your needs simply use the procedure below to adjust them. Note the same procedure can be used to adjust the auto-close times.

1.

Place the slide switch into the ‘set’ position

2.

Adjust the timer’s value by pressing and holding the required push button for the desired time.

3.

Repeat step 2 for the next timer (if desired).

4.

Place the slide switch back into the ‘RUN’ position.

5.

Test operation.

Make sure that the slide switch is placed back into the “RUN” position before testing the new timer value.

As you can see the procedure used to set each timer’s value is the same only the push button used changes. Each push button is clearly labelled underneath as to which timer’s value it sets. Note when setting the OPEN, CLOSE and

PEDESTRIAN cycle times the controller will drive the motors as if a “real” cycle is being executed. The difference being that the motors will stop as soon as the button is released or the limit switches are reached. The OPN status

LED on the control board will flash at 1 second intervals to assist setting times. Note when setting the OPEN and

CLOSE cycle times when limit switches are used, release the push button a few seconds after the limit switch cuts motor power. This allows for the motors to slow down over the life of the operators without the need to adjust again.

5. C

OMMISSIONING

•

Position the gate half way and tighten knurled knob at back of slider by hand so gate will drive.

•

Power up board and with gate in the half way position, press transmitter or manual control switch so operator drives gate.

•

The first pulse will always open gate, green LED will flash (top right hand corner) if it does not, then reverse the

2 motor wires.

• Check which limit switches stop gate in each direction, adjustment of the limit switch brackets may have to be made. Limit switches should not switch off the gates too soon (before reaching the stops) and conversely not too late, so the torque limiter is operating.

•

Tighten torque limiter knurled knob.

•

Set open & closed travel times.

•

Check that all safety devices work as designed and the electromagnetic lock holds the gate firmly closed (if fitted).

•

Install cover using screws provided in the front and sides to hold cover firm.

• Provide full details to the owner concerning the operation and relevant maintenance and disconnect details
