  • Page 5 The LiftMaster Gate Operator Model SW 2000-X3 The LiftMaster Gate Operator model SW 2000-X3 is a full featured, commercial swing gate operator with a telephone interface. The gate operator contains the following features: • Satisfies U.L. 325 requirements for primary (motor current) and secondary (photo) obstruction senses.
  • Page 7: Safety Summary

    It is important for everyone involved in the installation and operation of the Gate Operator to read the following warnings. 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Improper installation of a gate operator can result in a dangerous system. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. 2.
  • Page 8: Basic Installation Hints And Rules

    BASIC INSTALLATION HINTS AND RULES READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING YOUR INSTALLATION. 1. UNDERSTAND THE SYSTEM AND INSTALLATION SITE THOROUGHLY. The SW 2000 is a flexible and reliable gate operator system, but the quality of service depends directly on the quality of installation. Please read these instructions carefully and study the applicable diagrams before planning your installation.

  • Page 10: Pad And Mount

    • Left Gate and Right Gate are determined by looking from inside the complex toward the street. • Figure 1 shows a typical Bi-Parting gate in standard and compact installations. 1. Always install gate operators inside of the fence line, NEVER on the public side of the fence.
  • Page 11: Power Wiring

    C. POWER WIRING 1. Provide a separate conduit stub for the AC power. 2. Each gate operator requires a 115 VAC 20 AMP single phase circuit NOTE: Master and Slave units each require separate circuits to prevent false overcurrent faults (see X3 Series Master/Slave Systems). 3.

  • Page 13: Mounting Gate Operator

    The installation shown in Figure 3 is a suggested layout using emitters and receivers. Any UL-approved photo-sensors are acceptable, but they must cover the entire area of gate travel to be effective. Install photo-sensors in three Coverage Areas as shown in Figure 3. Coverage Area A- Inside-Open Coverage: Inside the gate, from the gate post(s) to the gate fully open position(s).
  • Page 14: Running Input Wiring

    D. RUNNING INPUT WIRING Route but do not connect input wires at this time. If inputs are connected now, the gate operator may activate at random during installation, potentially injuring installation personnel. 1. Remove the plastic control box cover. 2. Run wires from input components conduits and Master/Slave conduits into control box.
  • Page 15: Power Up Procedure

    F. POWER UP PROCEDURE If gate is positioned at the 'open' limit, gate will automatically close if Relcose Timer is enabled and power is switched on. Position gate either at the closed limit or at no limit when preparing to switch power on. Always use extreme caution and follow all warning in the Safety Summary.
  • Page 16: Gate Arm Installation

    H. GATE ARM INSTALLATION NOTES: 1. All dimensions are measured from one pivot point to the next pivot point. 2. The dimensions shown above are only recommended settings. Your installation may require different dimensions. 3. The SW 2000-X3 can be installed without welding. The anchor, swing arm and drag link may be attached using the supplied hardware only, welded, or bolted and welded.
  • Page 17: Setting Limit Cams

    I. SETTING LIMIT CAMS • Adjust the limit cams by loosening the clamp and rotating the cams. The cams rotate with the swing arm shaft, so small adjustments are magnified by the length of the gate. • Use manual controls to move the gate during limit cam adjustment. •...

    2. SETTING LEFT GATE LIMIT CAMS Top Limit Cam Top Limit Switch 1. Make sure that switch S2 is set to the "Left" position. 2. Turn on gate operator power switch. 3. Using manual OPEN and STOP, move the gate to its proper open limit position. 4.
  • Page 19: Gate Sensitivity Adjustments

    J. GATE SENSITIVITY ADJUSTMENTS The gate operator monitors both average and peak motor current. When the gate encounters an obstruction, the gate operator senses the change in motor current and reverses the gate. Three sensitivity adjustments must be set for each installation: •...
  • Page 20 Left Gate Motion Adjustment (R160) 1. Open the gate fully, then initiate closing the gate. 2. Wait 4 to 5 seconds, then lightly "bump" the leading edge of the gate to simulate an obstacle. 3. If the gate does not stop or back up, reopen the gate and adjust the pot slightly counterclockwise.

See Appendix A for details on how each control input affects the gate operator. 2. Connect the Master/Slave interconnect cable (see Master/Slave Systems for X3 Series Gate Operators, Part 1).
  • Page 23: Basic Gate Operator Programming

    L. BASIC GATE OPERATOR PROGRAMMING Even if you plan to program the gate operator by telephone, you may want to enter some immediate instructions during installation. The following list of instructions will help you set basic controls so the gate will operate properly until you have time for full programming, either directly or by telephone.
  • Page 24: Post Installation Procedures

    M. POST INSTALLATION PROCEDURES 1. Setup 1. Turn on the main power at the gate operator's circuit breaker. 2. Verify that switch S2 (the Gate Open Direction switch) is set to the correct position. 3. Turn on the unit power switch. 2.
  • Page 25 6. Alternate Action If Alternate Action has been selected so that CYCLE or RADIO commands both open and close the gate: Activate the CYCLE command, wait until the gate is fully open, then activate the CYCLE command again. The gate should close, verifying Alternate Action operation.
  • Page 26: Figure 12. Photo-Sensor Coverage Areas

    10. Photo-Sensors (Secondary Obstruction Sensing per UL 325 Requirements) Refer to above figure for Photo-Sensor coverage areas. Coverage Area A (Inside-Open Coverage): While the gate is moving, put your hand or arm through the Inside Photo-Sensor beam. The gate should stop. The gate should restart when the obstruction (your hand) is removed.
  • Page 27 11. Interrupt Bar (Edge Sensor) While the gate is opening, push on the Interrupt Bar (Edge Sensor). The gate should stop and reverse a few inches. 12. Maglock Verify that the Maglock activates when the gate is fully closed. RevMF Doc 01-20099 21 of 42...

    C. FAULTS AND THEIR CAUSES 1. IF OBSTRUCTION LED IS ON 1. The gate is blocked by an object. 2. OBSTRUCTION or STARTUP adjustment is set too low. 3. Cold weather: frozen motor or frozen gate wheels. 4. The Maglock does not disengage from the gate at the start of gate opening. 5.
  • Page 36: Maintenance

    D. MAINTENANCE To avoid injury, always turn off the unit power switch before working on gate. Regularly performance of preventive maintenance is essential for reliable system operation because it corrects small problems before they turn into emergencies. LiftMaster recommends performing preventive maintenance every 6 to 12 months, depending upon the amount of gate usage.

For detailed explanations of the Gate Operator's various, controls, indicators, inputs and adjustments, refer to the following pages. CONTROLS KEYPAD The 12-key keypad is used for local operation, programming and service.
  • Page 40 FUNCTIONAL INPUTS – The term "activation" means closing an input circuit (via a relay or switch), and may NOTES: be momentary or continuous. Momentary activations are superceded by any command. Continuous activations are superceded only by an overriding command. — — — — Activating any command when gate is at the open limit stops the Reclose Timer. When the command (except Manual CLOSE and STOP) is cleared, the Reclose Timer is reset.
  • Page 41 INSIDE/OUTSIDE INTERRUPT LOOP DETECTOR (TB16) IF GATE TYPE IS SWING OR LINEAR (ATG IS NOT FUNCTIONAL): Inside Interrupt Loop: Activation stops an opening or closing gate and deactivation opens the gate. Outside Interrupt Loop: Activation opens a closing gate. IF GATE TYPE IS SLIDE OR BARRIER AND ATG IS DISABLED: Inside Interrupt Loop: Activation opens a closing gate.
  • Page 42 EXIT SENSE RADIO INPUT (TB6) RADIO RECV Convenience terminals provide power and contact connection for a radio receiver. Activation is the same as CYCLE. OBSTRUCTION ALARM (TB17) Relay contacts close to provide 24DC alarm power if the gate has two consecutive obstruction faults.
  • Page 43 ADJUSTMENTS OBSTRUCTION Adjustable pot controls gate sensitivity to blockages by the RIGHT (R69) instantaneous rise in motor current. When the limit is exceeded, the gate stops and reverses a programmed distance (a minimum of 2 inches). OBSTRUCTION Adjustable pot controls gate sensitivity to blockages by the LEFT (R160) instantaneous rise in motor current.
