If the gate status indicator has not been fitted, there is an equivalent LED mounted on the CP75 marked
STATUS, which can be used as a fault finding aid.
NOTE: The controller's battery low protection will ensure that only the motors are prevented from drawing current from the battery. Items such as the radio receiver, Infra red beams etc continue to flatten the battery. An optional battery low cut-out switch (product code CP107) is available which will totally disconnect the battery.
Security (Courtesy) Light Timer (optional feature)
If a 220V power supply is available at the gate, timed security lights can be connected through the controller. Each time the gate is given a signal to operate, the lights will switch on for approximately two minutes and automatically switch off. The time that lights stay on can be programmed from 10 seconds to 42 minutes in increments of 10 seconds.
If security lights are fitted to the controller, and the pedestrian keyswitch is operated, the security lights will flash twice before the gate opens. (the preflash time is adjustable)
A pushbutton can be connected to the CP75 controller which will allow the pillar/courtesy lights to be switched from inside the house without having to operate the gate.
Typical Security or Courtesy Light Installation
The pushbutton switches low voltage, and the spare pushbutton provided on many brands of intercom handsets can be conveniently used.
When the pushbutton is pressed momentarily the pillar lights will switch ON for the pillar time period and switch off automatically. If the pushbutton is pressed and held for approximately 4 seconds, the pillar lights will stay on permanently. The lights are switched off by simply pressing the pushbutton again. If the gate status indicator is fitted to the intercom handset, it will flash once every two seconds to indicate that the pillar lights are ON permanently.
Low wattage 12V DC light fittings are also readily available and can be connected to the system, drawing power directly from the battery. Care must be taken to ensure that the power drawn from the system by lights and the motors does not exceed the re-charge rate of the CP84ER5V01 battery charger. A larger charger unit should be fitted to cope with the additional load.
Pre-Flashing
For additional safety, the courtesy light can be programmed to provide an early warning that the gates are about to operate. When the gates are activated the lights will flash for 2 seconds before the gate starts to open or close. The courtesy light timer will still function as normal only in certain modes. (the pre-flash time is fully adjustable in 1 seconds increments. The factory default is 2 seconds). By default pre-flashing is OFF.
Holiday lock out (optional feature)
An ON/OFF keyswitch (or any other convenient apparatus such as a keypad or radio receiver) can be connected to the gate system that will allow the system to be totally immobilised. The keyswitch is mounted with access from the outside of the property. When the keyswitch contact is OFF, the gate system will shut down and it will not be possible to operate the gate. When the keyswitch is ON, the gate
