SAFETY
SAFETY INSTALLATION INFORMATION
1.
Vehicular gate systems provide convenience and security. Gate
systems are comprised of many component parts. The gate
operator is only one component. Each gate system is specifically
designed for an individual application.
2.
Gate operating system designers, installers and users must take
into account the possible hazards associated with each individual
application. Improperly designed, installed or maintained systems
can create risks for the user as well as the bystander. Gate systems
design and installation must reduce public exposure to potential
hazards.
3.
4.
9.
10. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on
each side of the gate where easily visible.
11. For a gate operator utilizing a non-contact sensor:
a. Reference owner’s manual regarding placement of non-contact
sensor for each type of application. See Install Entrapment
Protection section.
A gate operator can create high levels of force in its function as a
component part of a gate system. Therefore, safety features must
be incorporated into every design. Specific safety features include:
b. Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping,
such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is still
moving.
• Edges Sensors (contact) • Guards for Exposed Rollers
• Photoelectric Sensors • Screen Mesh
• Vertical Posts
• Instructional and Precautionary Signage
c. One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk
of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter
reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
Install the gate operator only when:
12. For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge
sensor:
a. The operator is appropriate for the construction and the usage
class of the gate.
a. One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of
entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge,
trailing edge and post mounted both inside and outside of a
vehicular horizontal slide gate.
b. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened
from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 6 feet (1.8 m)
above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inches (6 cm) diameter
sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate,
and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in
the open position.
b. A hard wired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring
arranged so the communication between the sensor and the gate
operator is not subject to mechanical damage.
c. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and guarding
is supplied for exposed rollers.
5.
6.
The Stop and/or Reset (if provided separately) must be located in
the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not
cause the operator to start.
c. A wireless device such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF)
signals to the gate operator for entrapment protection functions
shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not
obstructed or impeded by building structures, natural
landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless device shall
function under the intended end-use conditions.
The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for
vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access
opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to
promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will
not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of
travel of the vehicular gate.
d. One or more contact sensors shall be located on the inside and
outside leading edge of a swing gate. Additionally, if the bottom
edge of a swing gate is greater than 6 inches (152 mm) above
the ground at any point in its arc of travel, one or more contact
sensors shall be located on the bottom edge.
The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is
supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening
and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall
not open into public access areas.
7.
The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both
directions prior to the installation of the gate operator.
8.
Controls intended for user activation must be located at least 6 feet
(1.8 m) away from any moving part of the gate and where the user
is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate
to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls shall
have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use.
Exception: Emergency access controls only accessible by authorized
personnel (e.g. fire, police) may be placed at any location in the
line-of-sight of the gate.
e. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge
of a vertical barrier (arm).

SET THE BIPART DELAY (SINGLE CONTROL BOX)
Occasionally in dual gate installations, one gate will need to open first and
close second. This would happen if there was an ornamental overhang on
one gate or if using a solenoid lock, for example. This gate is called the
Primary gate and needs to be connected to Gate 1 connections on the
control board. Thus, it is preferred that the control box be installed on the
same side as this gate. If there is no appropriate location on that side for
the control box, then mount the control box on the opposite side, but
connect the operator closest to the control box to the Gate 2 connector
and the operator on the opposite side to the Gate 1 connector.
1.
OUTSIDE PROPERTY
Primary Gate
The BIPART DELAY switch on the control board needs to be set to
the ON position.
The following illustration shows a dual gate configuration with a
decorative overlapping piece on the outside of the gate.

Control Board.
SET THE BIPART DELAY (DUAL CONTROL BOX)
BIPART DELAY/SYNCHRONIZED CLOSE
The LOCK/BIPART DELAY switch is used with dual control box
applications and serves two functions:
• BIPART DELAY: The BIPART DELAY is used in applications where a
mag-lock, solenoid lock, or decorative overlay would require one gate
to close before the other. The control box with the LOCK/BIPART
DELAY switch ON will delay from the close limit when opening and be
the first to close from the open limit.
• SYNCHRONIZED CLOSE: The BIPART DELAY is also used in
applications where one gate travels a longer distance than the other.
To synchronize the closing of the gates, set the LOCK/BIPART DELAY
switch to ON for both control boxes.
17
INSTALLATION
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate:
• ALL gate operator systems REQUIRE two independent entrapment
protection systems for each entrapment zone.
• Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone
who may come near a moving gate.
• Locate entrapment protection devices to protect in BOTH the open
and close gate cycles.
• Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving
gate and RIGID objects, such as posts, walls, pillars, or columns.
STEP 7
INSTALL ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION
This operator contains an inherent (internal) entrapment protection system and REQUIRES the addition of an external monitored entrapment
protection system (non-contact photoelectric sensor or contact edge sensor) for EACH entrapment zone prior to gate movement. A monitored
device sends a pulsed signal to the operator so the operator is aware of the device. If the operator does not receive the signal from the device it will
not run.
An entrapment zone is every location or point of contact where a person can become entrapped between a moving gate and a stationary object. Your
application may contain one or many entrapment zones. Property owners are obligated to test entrapment protection devices monthly. Use only
LiftMaster approved entrapment protection devices (refer to the accessory page).
NON-CONTACT SENSORS
If the photoelectric sensor beam gets blocked while the gate is moving, the gate will stop and reverse. The gate will not be able to travel in that
direction until the obstruction is cleared. Monitored photoelectric sensors MUST be used. If a monitored photoelectric sensor is not working or loses
power or the beam is blocked, then ALL gate operation in that direction will stop.
Sensors for Open Cycle
(Outside Property)
NOTE: If the distance
between the open gate and
the wall is less than 16"
(40.6 cm) entrapment
protection for this area is
required.
Entrapment protection is required
for the area between the gate and
the curb.
Monitored Photoelectric Sensors
(Inside Property)
Sensors for Close Cycle
CONTACT SENSORS (EDGE SENSORS)
If the electrically activated edge sensor comes in contact with an obstruction while the gate is moving, the gate will stop and reverse. The gate will not
be able to travel in that direction until the obstruction is cleared.
For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor, if the bottom
edge of a swing gate is greater than 6 inches above the
ground at any point in its arc of travel, one or more contact
sensors shall be located on the bottom edge.
Edge Sensor for
Open Cycle
If utilizing a contact sensor as entrapment
protection, one or more contact sensors
shall be located on the inside and outside
leading edge of a swing gate.

INSTALLATION
STEP 7 continued...
INSTALL ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION
There are three options for wiring the entrapment protection devices depending on the specific device and how the device will function. Refer to the
specific entrapment protection device manual for more information. These entrapment protection device inputs are for monitored devices, which
include pulsed photoelectric sensors, resistive edge sensors, and pulsed edge sensors. Only one monitored entrapment protection device may be
wired to each input. Additional entrapment protection devices may be wired to the expansion board (not provided).
CONTROL BOARD
CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT (2 Terminals)
Close Photoelectric Sensors
The CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT input is for photoelectric sensor
entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is
sensed during gate closing the gate will open to the full open position and
resets the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate
opening.
Close Edge
CLOSE EDGE (2 Terminals)
The CLOSE EDGE input is for edge sensor entrapment protection for the
close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the
gate will reverse to the full open position, disengaging the Timer-to-Close.
This input will be disregarded during gate opening.
Open Photoelectric Sensors
OR
Open Edge
OPEN EYES/EDGE (2 Terminals)
The OPEN EYES/EDGE input is for photoelectric sensor or edge sensor

ADJUSTMENT
LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENT
To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
• Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a moving gate.
• Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety
reversal system.
• NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move
gate.
• NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or
sticking gate.
• If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other control
may also need adjustment.
• After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST
be tested. Gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object.
INTRODUCTION
Your operator is designed with electronic controls to make travel limit and force adjustments easy. The adjustments allow you to program where the
gate will stop in the open and close position. The electronic controls sense the amount of force required to open and close the gate. The force is
adjusted automatically when you program the limits but should be fine tuned using the REVERSAL FORCE dial on the control board (refer to Fine Tune
the Force section) to compensate for environmental changes.
The limits can be set using the control board (following page) or a remote control (refer to Limit Setup with a Remote Control in the Appendix). Setting
the limits with a remote control requires a 3-button remote control programmed to OPEN, CLOSE, and STOP.
NOTE: The Test Buttons on the control board will not work until the limits have been set.

FINE TUNE THE FORCE
The REVERSAL FORCE DIAL on the control board is used for fine tuning
the force in cases where wind or environmental changes may affect the
gate travel.
Based on the length and weight of the gate it may be necessary to make
additional force adjustments. The force setting should be high enough
that the gate will not reverse by itself nor cause nuisance interruptions,
but low enough to prevent serious injury to a person. The force setting is
the same for both the open and close gate directions.
1.
Open and close the gate with the test buttons.
2.
If the gate stops or reverses before reaching the fully open or closed
position, increase the force by turning the force control slightly
clockwise.
3.
Perform the “Obstruction Test” after every force setting adjustment
(see below).

OBSTRUCTION TEST
The operator is equipped with an automatic obstruction sensing feature.
If the gate encounters an obstruction during motion, the operator will
automatically reverse direction of the gate for a short time and then stop
the gate. After any adjustments are made, test the operator:
1.
Open and close the gate with the test buttons, ensuring that the gate
is stopping at the proper open and close limit positions.
2.
Place a solid object between the open gate and a rigid structure.
Ensure that the gate, the solid object, and the rigid structure can
withstand the forces generated during this obstruction test.
3.
Run the gate in the close direction. The gate should stop and reverse
upon contact with the solid object. If the gate does not reverse off
the solid object, reduce the force setting by turning the force control
slightly counter-clockwise. The gate should have enough force to
reach both the open and close limits, but MUST reverse after contact
with a solid object.

MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
• READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
• ANY maintenance to the operator or in the area near the operator
MUST NOT be performed until disconnecting the electrical power (AC
or solar and battery) and locking-out the power via the operator
power switch. Upon completion of maintenance the area MUST be
cleared and secured, at that time the unit may be returned to service.
• Disconnect power at the fuse box BEFORE proceeding. Operator
MUST be properly grounded and connected in accordance with
national and local electrical codes. NOTE: The operator should be on
a separate fused line of adequate capacity.
• NEVER let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the
remote control away from children.
• ALWAYS keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE
SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
• The entrance is for vehicles ONLY. Pedestrians MUST use separate
entrance.
• Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact
with a rigid object or reverse when an object activates the
non-contact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel,
retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator
properly can increase the risk of INJURY or DEATH.
• Use the manual disconnect release ONLY when the gate is NOT
moving.
• KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the owner’s manual.
Have a qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware.
• ALL maintenance MUST be performed by a LiftMaster professional.
• Activate gate ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is properly adjusted
and there are no obstructions to gate travel.
• To reduce the risk of FIRE or INJURY to persons use ONLY
LiftMaster part 29-NP712 for replacement batteries.
• SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
• ALWAYS wear protective gloves and eye protection when changing the battery or working around the battery compartment.
MAINTENANCE CHART
Disconnect all power (AC, solar, battery) to the operator before servicing. The operator's AC Power switch ONLY turns off AC power to the control
board and DOES NOT turn off battery power. ALWAYS disconnect the batteries to service the operator.

NOTES:
• Severe or high cycle usage will require more frequent maintenance checks.
• It is suggested that while at the site voltage readings be taken at the operator. Using a digital voltmeter, verify that the incoming voltage to the
operator is within ten percent of the operator’s rating.
BATTERIES
Batteries will degrade over time depending on temperature and usage.
The operator alarm will beep 3 times with a command if the battery is
low. Batteries do not perform well in extremely cold temperatures. For
best performance, the batteries should be replaced every 3 years. Use
only LiftMaster part 29-NP712 for replacement batteries. The standard
control box comes with two 7AH batteries.
Two 33AH batteries (A12330SGLPK) may be used in place of the 7AH
batteries for a Large Metal Control Box solar installation. A battery tray
(model K10-36183) and battery harness (model K94-37236) are required
for 33AH applications.
The batteries contain lead and need to be disposed of properly.

TROUBLESHOOTING
To protect against fire and electrocution:
• DISCONNECT power (AC or solar and battery) BEFORE installing or
servicing operator.
For continued protection against fire:
• Replace ONLY with fuse of same type and rating.

draw, refer to accessory page. NOTE: Input solar power is 24 Vdc at 60 watts maximum.
The solar panel(s) must be located in an open area clear of obstructions and shading for the entire day. The gate operator is not supported in northern
climates where temperatures reach below -4˚F. This is due to cold weather and a reduced number of hours of sunlight during the winter months. Cycle
rate may vary from solar chart for areas that reach below 32˚F. Solar panels should be cleaned on a regular basis for best performance to ensure
proper operation.

SOLAR PANEL(S)
The location of the panel(s) is critical to the success of the installation. In
general, the panel(s) should be mounted using the provided angle
bracket facing due south. Use a compass to determine direction. The
solar panel(s) should be mounted in an area clear of all obstructions and
shading from buildings and trees. If the panel(s) is not casting a shadow,
the battery is not being charged.
TIPS:
• Tall trees or buildings that do not shade the solar panel(s) in the
summer could shade the solar panel(s) during the winter months
when the sun sits lower in the sky.
• The area around the solar panel(s) should be clear of shadows or
obstructions to the sun for a 180° arc east to west.
• Wire runs should be kept as short as possible. The solar panel(s) can
be located up to 100 feet (30.48 m) from the operator using #16 AWG
wire in any direction, including elevating it.

Solar Panel
(Facing South)
• DO NOT install solar panel near potential shading or obstructions that
will block the panel during any part of the day.
• To optimize the system for winter operation the angle can be
increased an additional 15° (solar panel(s) sits more vertical).

SAMS WIRING WITH RELAYS NOT ENERGIZED
The Sequenced Access Management System (SAMS) are programmable relays used to determine the order in which more than one control device
operates across an opening. For example, where a swing gate and a barrier gate are both used, the swing gate may be set to open all the way before
the barrier gate activates. An example of SAMS wiring is shown below.
