IMPORTANT: Charging Battery Prior to Use Before beginning any electrical stages of installation we highly recommend charg- ing the battery on the control board for 12 hours. This can be done anywhere there is an outlet available. 1. Plug the battery into the control board (fig 1). For charging purposes it is not necessary to hook the receiver to the battery or control board.
Manual Operation 1. Open the protective door by turning the slotted lock with a coin of large flat head screw drive. 2. Take the supplied key located inside the door, fit it in the release system and turn it clockwise until it reaches the mechanical stop. 3.
Installation of Mounting Hardware Set the Foundation Plate 1. Fit the 4 supplied caged nuts, as shown below, in the 4 square holes of the plate. 2. The foundation plate must be located as shown in example A (right closing) or example B (left closing) to ensure the rack and pinion mesh correctly.
4. Lay the electric cables for connection to the accessories and power supply. To facilitate mak- ing connections, allow the cables to project by about 8 inches from the hole of the foundation plate. Operator Installation 1. Position the operator on the plate using the supplied screws as shown below. 3.

Rack Installation 1. Manually take the leaf to its close position. 2. Lay the first piece of rack at the appropriate level and mark the hole position on the gate. Make a hole and use nuts, bolts and washers to make a connection to the gate (not provided). The holes in the rack are made oblong for adjustment after the holes are drilled.

Travel Limit Magnet Installation The ESTATE SLIDE operator is supplied with a sensor, by detecting the transit of two magnets secured to the top of the rack, commands gate movement to stop. 1. Position the magnets on the rack as shown in below. 2.
Control Board Layouts ATTENTION: Study the control board and read this section thoroughly before attempting to operate your gate opener. Warnings: Before attempting any job on the control board (connections, maintenance), turn • off electrical power and unplug the support battery. Install a surge protector upstream of your opener, the opener is not power surge •...
Power 1. The Estate Slide comes with 1) AC transformer. If the AC transformer supplied has 4 screw terminals, use the center 2 terminals to attach your low voltage wire (polarity is not relevant). You may locate the transformer up to 1000’ away from the control board with 16 gauge or larger direct burial low voltage wire.
Control Board Pre-Learning Preparations For your opener to function properly a few connections must be made prior to the learning process. Accessories should NOT be installed until after the learning process is completed. 1. Using the provided orange jumper wire, connect the normally closed safety terminals (terminals 3, 4, and 5) to one of the negative terminals (terminals 12, 13, 14, or 15).

NOTE: Before beginning the one touch learning procedure be sure to have the limit magnets set up. These will let your gate know where to stop during the learning process. Enter Learning Mode Enter the programming mode by pressing P1 6 times until all 5 LEDs (A,B,C,D,E) are lit.
Programming Gate Movement Variables Using the following procedures you can change factory settings such as auto close, speed, force, delays and more. Begin the programming process by pressing P1. Pressing P1 selects A,B,C,D or E. A, B, C, D and E corre- spond with the variables in the chart on the following page.

J1—Terminal Board for Master Card (cont.) Terminals (cont.) 4 - “Opening Safety Device” This is a normally closed terminal where by any device (i.e. photocells, sensitive edge, magnetic loops) which, if there is an obstacle in the area they protect during opening, reverses gate direction to closing. If the opening safety devices are tripped when the gate is closed, they prevent the leaf movement.
Simple Diagnostics Diagnostics using the Power light on your Master Control Board. The P light has a diagnostic func- tion. There are 4 statuses. 1. Steady light indicating main power is ON and the battery is charged 2. Flashing slowly (lights every second) indicates no main power but the battery is charged. 3.
Photocell & Safety Device Guide Before connecting the photocells (or other devices) we advise you to select the type of operation according to the movement zone to be protected. Opening Safety Devices: They operate only during the gate opening movement and, therefore, they are suitable for protecting the zone between the opening leaves and fixed obstacles (walls, etc.) against the risk of impact and crushing.

If you call in for technical support or warranty support: before any control board or motor will be permitted to be sent in for testing or warranty you will be required to e-mail digital photos to the technician. This is done in your best interest to save unnecessary shipping expenses and time lost. Many times we can come up with solutions to issues by seeing pictures that relay information that is impossible to relay through a phone conversation.
