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.
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.

HySecurity monitors all external entrapment sensors connections by looking for NC contacts connected to input terminals. Smart touch software cycles power to device and looks for a time delay from when device powers on to when the contact closes (sensor input pulled low, meaning the sensor is not blocked/tripped).

An Edge Sensor can be either hardwired through an adapter module (Hy2NC) or a wireless transmitter receiver combo (WEL-200 or iGAZE RE). Figure 68 below shows the wiring and dip switch settings of a WEL-200. For more information and wiring diagrams of other recommended sensors see the “HySecurity External Entrapment Sensor Wiring Guide”.
The IES on HySecurity gate operators is an entrapment sensor that is required by UL 325 as a Type “A” detection sensor. It is tripped through software programming OR hydraulic pressure settings. It does not function solely on its own accord and must be connected to the Smart Touch Controller. The sensitivity and response of the IES when tripped is factory set, but can be adjusted through the Installer Menu items: •...
SENSOR 3 S3 SENSOR 3 NOTE: Three inputs for external entrapment protection sensors are available on the HySecurity gate operator controller. Table 3 indicates how the edge and photo eye inputs have been renamed to generic “sensor” inputs. They are interchangeable and configurable.
Page 39
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 128. 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 128. Until the gate operator receives a command to run (open or close command), the sensors are not receiving power (pre-h4.56 and h5.57 software).

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.

Errors can be retrieved from the Smart Touch Controller by downloading from the RS232 communications port or the USB port. HySecurity’s free START software, a laptop computer, and a special download cable or USB cable are required to retrieve and read this data.
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 an edge sensor be laboratory tested and “recognized” under UL 325. In order to be compatible with all HySecurity operators, a edge sensor must be rated to function from 24 VDC source power.
Photo eyes usually provide alignment aid LED’s for this setup, but they can be hard to see. HySecurity has provided a unique feature that turns power on to the photo eyes and causes the buzzer to chirp when the photo eyes enter and exit alignment.
UL 325 Standard of Safety for “monitored” external entrapment protection. To understand external SENSOR 1 entrapment protection and how HySecurity equipment monitors sensors, refer to the section titled Entrapment Protection on Photo Eye sensor terminal connections when page 29.
The UL 325 Standard of Safety requires that a photoelectric sensor be laboratory tested and “recognized” under UL 325. In order to be compatible with all HySecurity gate operators, a photo eye must be rated to function from 24 VDC source power.
Hard-wired edge sensor adaptors (like Hy2NC) have inputs for up to two resistor terminated edges and up to two NC contact outputs. • HySecurity suggests the use of hard-wired edge sensor adaptors with an edge mounted to lead fence post to protect draw-in entrapment zone when the gate is running.

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. This high quality fluid, combined with other design considerations, allows HySecurity to rate its operators for service in ambient temperatures of -40°F to 158°F (-40°C to 70°C).

STC board software is constantly being enhanced with new features that create an easier install and improve on board diagnostic tools. Check the HySecurity website for a test version of software before heading out for field maintenance. Use S.T.A.R.T. software to download latest software version to a PC laptop and upload it to gate operator in the field.
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.
