Page 6: Safety Summary
SAFETY SUMMARY It is important for everyone involved in the installation and operation of the LiftMaster model BG 3000-B1 Barrier Gate Operator reads the following warnings. WARNING! • A vehicle gate is a large, heavy object that is moved by an electric motor. A moving gate can cause serious injury or death! The safety and well-being of others depends on the installation of a safe system. -
Page 7: Basic Installation Hints And Rules
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING YOUR INSTALLATION. The sections that follow contain detailed procedures for installation of a model BG 3000-B1 system.

Page 8: Part 1 Site Preparation
PART 1 SITE PREPARATION LOCATION AND LAYOUT Figure 1. Barrier Gate Operator Layout. NOTE Figure 1 shows two different single gate installations. For location and layout details of Bi-Parting, Bi-Parting Latch, Trap and Tandem gates, see Installation and Operation of Master/Slave Systems for Series B1 Gate Operators Doc. -
Page 9: Pad And Mount
1. The concrete pad must be sufficient to support the gate operator and the dynamic forces created by the moving gate. LiftMaster recommends a pad 20” wide by 22” long by 20” deep. 2. Four anchor bolts are required to secure the gate operator to the pad. The mounting holes in the gate operator are 5/8”... -
Page 10: Power Wiring
LOOP DETECTORS 1. The gate operator has a shelf that can support non-LiftMaster loop detector electronics. Power for the loop detector can come from the auxiliary 115 VAC plugs in the gate operator or from the 24 VAC provided by the gate operator control board. -
Page 11: Part 2 System Installation
PART 2 SYSTEM INSTALLATION MOUNTING GATE OPERATOR WARNING For safety reasons, the Power Fail Operation Option is shipped with the battery unconnected to the system. Do not connect the battery until all other installation and alignment procedures have been completed. Failure to observe this warning may result in the Power Fail Operation Option moving the gate at unexpected moments. -

Power ON, MAGLOCK, and CLOSE LIMIT or OPEN LIMIT, if one of the limit switches are engaged. NOTE: If the LEDs do not follow this pattern, the controller board may not be working correctly. Stop installation and call LiftMaster Technical Support for assistance. Rev C Doc 6001287 (01-20284) 7 of 40... -
Page 13: Using Manual Controls
USING MANUAL CONTROLS Figure 5. Manual Controls, Location and Use. If necessary, use the manual controls on Manual Input Terminal TB2 (OPEN, CLOSE, and STOP, as shown in Figure 5), to move the gate arm during system installation. • To open the gate: connect the OPEN and STOP terminals to the COMMON terminal. •... -
Page 14: Gate Arm Adjustment For Typical Installation
CAUTION The total weight of the gate arm must not exceed ten (10) pounds. The lighter and/or shorter the gate arm, the longer the life of the gear reducer and motor. 1. ARM ATTACHMENT 1. Secure the hub flange to the output shaft using the two set screws and the key from the accessory kit. -
Page 15: Gate Sensitivity Adjustments
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 stops or reverses the gate. Three sensitivity adjustments are factory-set for most installations: •... -
Page 16: Power Fail Operation Option Connection
2. RESTRICTED INSTALLATION ADJUSTMENTS "Right Reverse" Adjustment (R78) 1. Initiate opening the gate. 2. Wait 1 to 2 seconds, then lightly "tug” against the edge of the gate to simulate an obstacle. 3. If the gate does not stop, reclose the gate and adjust the pot slightly counterclockwise. 4. - Page 17 Power Fail Operation Option Test NOTES: • The following procedures require turning main power to the gate operator off and on at its dedicated circuit breaker. DO NOT shut off the Gate Operator Power switch unless specifically directed by the procedure, since this will shut off everything, including the Power Fail Operation option.

CONNECTING INPUT WIRING Figure 9. Control Board Wiring. IMPORTANT: See NOTES, next page, before proceeding. 1. Wire all external control devices to their connections on the control board as shown. See Appendix A for details on how each control input affects the gate operator. 2. -
Page 19: Setting Gate Control Switch S1 And Reclose Timer Pot R94
NOTES 1. Disconnecting the STOP terminal from the COMMON terminal stops the gate and prevents all commands from having any effect. Manual Open does not activate the Reclose Timer. 2. If gate(s)are used for bi-directional traffic, the Exit Loop should be a directional loop detector. 3. -
Page 20: Figure 11. Reclose Timer Enable And Adjustment Location
TIMER Sets the Reclose Timer to OFF (left) or ON (right). When ON, the timer controls (S1-2) how long the gate waits at the open limit before closing. The Reclose Timer can be set from 0-250 seconds by adjusting the Reclose Timer pot (R94). During a power outage, if the gate is fully open and TIMER is ON, the Reclose Timer starts after the restoration of power, causing the fully open gate to close automatically. -
Page 21: Post Installation Procedures
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 22 7. Alternate Action 1. If you want the CYCLE input (Entry system) or RADIO input (Transmitter) to both open and close the gate, on switch S1 set TIMER to OFF and ATG to OFF. 2. Activate the CYCLE command, wait until the gate is fully open, then activate the CYCLE command again.

For detailed explanations of the Gate Operator's various, controls, indicators, inputs and adjustments, refer to the pages that follow. Rev C Doc 6001287 (01-20284) 28 of 40... - Page 34 CONTROLS SWITCH S1 (OFF/ON DIP SWITCH) SLIDE ACTION When used with ATG, this switch controls several gate operator features: (S1-1) Inside Interrupt Loop: four different modes are selectable: SLIDE and ATG OFF: Loop activation prevents the gate from opening or closing. If gate is moving, Loop activation stops the gate.
- Page 35 FAULT Indicates a fault in the system. See Fault List in Part 5, Troubleshooting and Maintenance. MAX RUN TIME Indicates the motor ran for more than 75 seconds without reaching a limit switch, and was stopped. Usually requires mechanical service. See Fault List in Part 5, Troubleshooting and Maintenance.
