Obstruction Sensor (Primary Entrapment Protection)

!

IMPORTANT:

The appropriate “ODS” setting is dependant upon the gate installation and construction. Set this feature accordingly. Additional Safety equipment should be used to reduce possible risk of injury or vehicle damage.

“ODS” Obstruction Detection Sensor

The Obstruction Sensor detects obstructions in the path of the traveling gate. The dial sets the amount of force required to activate the operators inherent obstruction detection.

Setting the dial to “0” will require the least amount of force to activate;

Setting the dial to “100” will require the maximum amount of force to activate.

UL325 standard requires an audio alarm to go off after two consecutive entrapment events sensed by the

Inherent Entrapment Protection of the

Gate Operator.

The audio alarm will sound for a period of 5 minutes or until a Stop command or the “Alarm Reset” switch has been actuated. (refer to page 12)

When the Obstruction Sensor detects an obstruction it will:

1. Stop the gate’s movement and reverse it momentarily.

2. Bring the gate to a resting position.

3. Disable the Hold Open Timer feature until the Gate Operator receives a new command.

If second obstruction is detected before the gate reaches either limit it will:

1. Stop the gate’s movement.

2. Disable the Gate Operator.

3. Sound the UL Alarm

4. A STOP command must be provided to disable the alarm and continue operation.

!

TECHNICAL TIP:

The Status LED for the

“ODS” will indicate the following when it has been triggered.

A. Solid: Obstruction.

Detected a sudden or abrupt increase in gate resistance.

B. Flashing: Overload.

Detected a more subtle, but sustained increase in gate resistance.

N.O.

COM

( - ) ( + )

Note regarding Photo Beam types:

Fail-Safe type - connect the “N.C.” terminal of the photo beam to the

“Re-Open” terminal on the control board.

Typically, these are the reflective type photo beams.

Fail -Secure type - connect the “N.O.” terminal of the photo beam to the

“Re-Open” terminal on the control board.

Typically, these are the transmitter/ receiver type photo beams.

Check for proper operation:

The “Re-Open” LED will illuminate solid while the beam is obstructed and remain off when the beam is unobstructed.

COM

N.O.

( )

(+)

The control board provides two modes of operation that a radio receiver can control the gate:

Open-Stop-Close

1. By having the radio receiver connected as illustrated and with the Hold Open

Timer OFF (see page 24):

Every command of the radio transmitter will control the gate as follows: a. First command opens the gate, b. Second command stops the gate and c. Third command closes the gate d. Any subsequent commands will continue in the same order to control the gate.

This type of configuration is not recommended for commercial installations.

Open Only

2. By having the radio receiver connected as illustrated and with the Hold Open

Timer ON (see page 24):

Each command of the radio transmitter is

ALWAYS AN OPEN COMMAND

to the gate.

For maximum reception range:

Locate the radio antenna to the top of the gate column.

!

TECHNICAL TIP:

For more information regarding accessory connections and terminal functions, refer to

“Appendix (A)” on pages 42-43.

See “Appendix (B)” on page 44 for connecting common radio receiver models.

Viking Loop Rack

TIP:

This operator may be equipped with a pre-wired Loop Rack that plug-in type loop detectors can be connected to. This provides a convenient alternative to the box type loop detectors that would need to be wired to the control board. Viking does not provide either type of loop detectors.

Loop Rack Wiring Harness: Part # VA-LRH



Guidelines for Loop Installation

1. Prevent sharp corners in the geometry of the loop sensor.

2. Install the appropriate number of turns for your loop geometry based on the loop perimeter. Use Table C (below) as a guide.

3. Use XLP (cross-linked-polyethylene) type of wire. This wire reduces the effects of moisture and other environmental events in altering the functionality of the vehicular loop detector.

4. Twist the lead wire at least 6 turns per foot.

5. Use BACKER-ROD to minimize damage to the loop detector wire prior to using the sealant.

6. Place the loop detector wire and adjust the sensitivity of the vehicular loop detector unit in a way to minimize the effects of the gate over the loop detector wire.

!

IMPORTANT!

Some of the following parameters may affect the proper functionality of the vehicular loop detector.

Consult the manufacturer of the vehicular loop detector and/or loop wire.

• Gate size

• Number of turns in the loop sensor wire

• Distance of the loop sensor wire to the gate at either at the open or close position

Magnetic Lock, Lock Solenoid

NOTE:

Viking Access Systems does not provide external gate lock devices. These items can be purchased from your dealer or distributor.

Magnetic Lock

( + )

( + )

Power for the Locks:

Do not use the 24VDC power supplied by the control board. An external power supply, or plug-in transformer, must be used for the magnetic lock or lock solenoid. Plug the transformer into the

“120VAC” receptacle provided at the operators Power Box. This will prevent rapid drainage of the battery in the event of power failure.

The control boards “Magnetic Lock” relay is rated for 10A-250VAC.

Relays In General

NOTE:

Viking Access Systems does not provide the external safety devices and access controls. These items can be purchases from your dealer or distributor.

In General

In regards to the Viking control board, all external safety devices and access controls contain, and are, simple relays that provide an input to the Viking control board when the device is activated.

When these devices are activated, their internal relays create a contact, or short, between the “C” and “N.O.” terminals This contact is what provides the command to the Viking control board.

!

TECHNICAL TIP:

Viking uses the

Normally Open “N.O.” contact from the device, excluding “fail-safe” type photo beams. In such instances, the Normally

Closed “N.C.” will be used instead.
