  • Page 4 The Model SL 1000-B1 The LiftMaster model SL 1000-B1 Slide Gate Operator is a full featured commercial gate operator with a master/slave wiring capability. The SL 1000-B1 contains the following features: • Dynamic motor braking limits gate overtravel. • Alternate action OPEN/CLOSE inputs.
  • Page 5: Safety Summary

    SAFETY SUMMARY It is important for everyone involved in the installation and operation of the LiftMaster model SL 1000-B1 Slide 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.

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.
  • Page 12: Connecting Power

    B. CONNECTING POWER CAUTION Ensure that the AC power circuit breaker is turned off before wiring power to the switchbox. Run power cables through conduit to Gate Operator, then connect wires to the switch box as shown in Figure 11: 1.
  • Page 13: Power Up Procedure

    E. POWER UP PROCEDURE 1. Turn on circuit breaker that provides power to gate operator. 2. On Manual Input Terminal TB2, connect the STOP terminal to the COMMON terminal (see Figure 13). 3. Turn on gate operator power switch and verify that the row of LEDs on the right side of the controller board all turn on, then turn off sequentially, starting from the bottom.
  • Page 14: Setting Limit Cams

    G. SETTING LIMIT CAMS • The left limit cam is close to the gearbox. The right limit is close to the end of the shaft (see Figure 14). • Limit cams are adjusted by releasing the cam lock plate, rotating the cams, then reseating the cam lock plate.
  • Page 15: Gate Sensitivity Adjustments

    H. 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 in the field: •...
  • Page 16 "Open To Left" Adjustment Procedures Left Gate Motion Adjustment (R81) 1. Initiate opening the gate. 2. Wait 4 to 5 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.

    K. CONNECTING INPUT WIRING Figure 18. Control Board Wiring. 1. Remove the plastic control box cover. See NOTES, next page, before proceeding. 2. 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. 3.
  • Page 21: Post Installation Procedures

    NOTES 1. Disconnecting the STOP terminal from the COMMON terminal stops the gate and prevents all commands from having any effect. 2. Inside and Outside Interrupt Loops: • For maximum safety, Inside and Outside Interrupt loops require separate loop detectors. •...
  • Page 22 5. Maximum Retry Count 1. If you want the gate to resume operation automatically up to 2 times, 30 seconds after a Fault, set RETRY on switch S1 to ON. 2. If you do not want the gate to resume automatically after a Fault, set RETRY on switch S1 to OFF.
