Table 2: HySecurity Gate Operators maintaining Object Detection Table 2 indicates those HySecurity gate operators that may be within the exception parameters of UL 325 or comply with standards other than UL 325, but continue to maintain object detection capabilities. HySecurity strongly recommends that you assess every site for entrapment zones and provide the necessary protection to guard against entrapment.
External Entrapment Protection Sensors monitored by HySecurity Gate Operators Any external entrapment protection sensor may be monitored by HySecurity gate operators, provided the following requirements are met: • Sensor is marked as certified to UL 325 Standard of Safety by a Nationally Recognized Test laboratory, such as UL or ETL.
Our commitment to quality and innovation will become evident as the features and performance of the expertly engineered and manufactured HydraSwing gate operator become familiar to you. Thank you for the confidence you’ve shown in becoming part of the HySecurity family and in choosing a premium, industry- leading product.

Be aware of the international, federal, and local codes in your area and how best to handle hazardous waste materials. The pump pack fluid, found in all hydraulic HySecurity operators, can be recycled. Gear oil, found in HySecurity electromechanical gate operators, can also be recycled. If the fluids are mixed or contaminated with any solvents or other chemicals, they become hazardous waste.

Code (NEC) - Article 250 requires a separate earth ground in addition to the required equipment ground. HySecurity recommends grounding the operator with a separate earth ground rod (or a similar device in the case of crash products) to shield the operator against electromagnetism and other electrical signals that may cause, erratic operation with, or damage to, the Smart Touch Controller and other electrical parts.
OnSideratiOnS HySecurity gate operators are intended for permanent installation. Make sure you prepare the site with the following considerations: WARNING Each gate operator is built to run on a specific line power voltage and phase. Failure to ensure the source voltage (phase and frequency match what is specified for the equipment), may result is severe damage to the equipment.

NOTE: All HySecurity gate operators, indicating a manufacturing date of 2016 in the serial number, will have the Build Year set to 2. A Build Year of 2 (BY 2) indicates that your gate operator is prepared to monitor for external entrapment protection sensors. The Build Year setting appears in the system scroll on the gate operator display.
NOTE: When installing wired edge sensors, the WIRED EDGE must be connected to an interface module that produces an NC output. Refer to Wiring HySecurity Sensors: Smart Touch on page 111. However, wireless edge sensors, require no interface module. Wireless edge sensors need the wireless gate links which include a transmitter and receiver.
All external entrapment protection sensors must be wired to the SENSOR COM terminal for monitoring purposes. Review sensor wiring diagrams found in Wiring HySecurity Sensors: Smart Touch on page 111. Until the gate operator receives a command to run (open or close command), the sensors are not receiving power.

Once you have completed the installation of the HySecurity operator and attached the wired accessories, you’re ready to program the operator. Two different approaches exist: • Connect a laptop computer to the serial RS-232 connector and set the operator menu configurations via the S.T.A.R.T.
Initial Setup Using S.T.A.R.T. With the S.T.A.R.T. application (available online after registering at HySecurity) uploaded to your PC laptop, you can choose to set site menu configurations from the comfort of your office. Then, simply bring your PC laptop to the gate operator site, connect to the gate operator using an RS-232 to serial download cable and USB adapter, and download the configured menu settings file from your laptop to the specified gate operator.

Vehicle Detector Installation and Loop Layouts HySecurity recommends that vehicle detectors be used for free exit and obstruction sensing logic only. The exception is in parking or barrier arm applications where detectors may also be used to close the gate. In applications employing our swing, vertical lift, or sliding gate operators, closing logic cannot be used except when the anti-tailgate logic is employed.
NOTE: Standard box type 11 pin (24 VDC or 24 VAC) vehicle detectors may be connected in the traditional manner to the controller, but HySecurity Hy5B mini-detector modules plug directly into the board, making field installation much faster and enhancing performance.
S.T.A.R.T. software to your PC laptop, and then load the gate operator code to the controller board before installing Hy5B vehicle detectors. See www.hysecurity.com for updates. NOTE: Hy5A emulation mode does not include all the features of Hy5B. If you are replacing Hy5A detectors and updating the gate operator software, be aware Build Year 1 (BY1) or Build Year 2 (BY2) will need to be addressed.

NOTE: To enable fully automatic operation, this gate operator requires a MINIMUM of one external entrapment protection sensor to monitor potential entrapment zones in either the open or close direction of travel. Visit www.hysecurity.com/gatesafety for more information on UL 325 standards and gate safety.
Compatibility The UL 325 standard requires that a photoelectric sensor be laboratory tested and “recognized” under UL 325. In order to be compatible with all HySecurity operators, a photo eye must be rated to function from 24 VDC source power.
HySecurity Sensors: Smart Touch on page 111. NOTE: HySecurity gate operators, manufactured with 2016 (or later) in the serial number, require Normally Closed output sensors. Some manufacturers label an output as N.O. (normally open), when it is actually an N.C. (normally closed) contact. Review External Entrapment Protection Sensors monitored by HySecurity Gate Operators on page iii.

NOTE: If the gate speed must be changed, contact your HySecurity distributor or HySecurity Tech Support. Extremely cold weather is unlikely to seriously affect the gate speed because HySecurity employs a special grade of hydraulic fluid (Uniflow), which maintains a linear viscosity over a broad temperature range.

With S.T.A.R.T. software loaded on your laptop computer, you have an invaluable management tool for all HySecurity operators. The RS-232 serial port (found on the Smart Touch Controller), allows you to download system diagnostics and upload system configurations using the S.T.A.R.T. software. The free S.T.A.R.T. software is conveniently located at www.hysecurity.com.
The software on the STC board is periodically being enhanced with new features that create an easier install and improve the on-board diagnostic tools. Be sure to check the HySecurity website for the latest version of software and operator code before heading out for field maintenance.
Fluid breakdown caused by heat is the main concern. If the unit is subjected to high use, or you are using the HySecurity biodegradable fluid option (especially in a warm climate), change the fluid more frequently.
Refer to Adjusting the Pressure Relief Valve on page 25 and follow and solenoid the instructions. For HySecurity Technical Support contact: 800-321-9947. Open Valve The open valve is solenoid operated and, when energized, directs the hydraulic flow to open the gate. No adjustment of this valve is possible or necessary.
