- Page 2 VPG2490 OPERATOR The VPG2490 is AutoGate’s new UL 325 Rev 7 Listed Ver cal Pivot Gate Operator. The VPG2490 em- ploys a 90°, (Right Angle Drive) gearmotor, and a newly designed 24 VDC controller (Genesis Board) and u lizes a new Limit/Posi on Sensor (LPS) to detect gate posi on. The frame for this model is 2” taller than the previous model to allow for clearance between the windbracing and the end panel of the operator cab- inet when the gate is fully open. This allows the addi on of “OPEN EDGE” contact bump strips to be ...
- Page 3 2490 BELTS (cont.) The following are the recommended belt tension adjustments: To obtain the measurements place a long straight edge across the span as shown by the do ed line and press down on the belt with a small force scale or finger p at midspan between the contact points of the belt and sheaves. The primary 'MOTOR' drive adjustment is an average of the 3 belts. Adjust to .25" deflec on with 6 to 7 lbs. of force. Also, when adjus ng the 'MOTOR' drive belt tension, make sure to keep the motor moun ng as- sembly square, either using a tape measure or the notches in the moun ng slides. When properly aligned ...
- Page 4 Genesis Controller AutoGate is introducing the “GENESIS” control board. Genesis is a 24 Volt DC board capable of controlling mo- tors rated up to 20 Amps. The board has a 4 line, 20 characters per line display for informa on and program- ming. The Genesis board operates on DC power. Our standard system will be supplied with a 24 to 28-volt DC / 18.8- amp power supply and the Power Supply se ng will be “NORMAL”. This will power all func ons of the gate. There is an internal ba ery charger/maintainer circuit on the Genesis board. The system will require two (2) 12-volt ba eries wired in series or a single 24-volt ...
- Page 5 GENESIS CONTROLLER (cont.) The Genesis board is programmed to monitor the input power in all 3 scenarios. In normal opera on, using the regular power supply, if the AC power to the supply or the power supply itself fails, the RED LED indi- cator light on the driveway operator end panel will flash. If the ‘solar’ panels or the ‘charge’ supply fail to charge the ba eries for more than 24 hours, again the indicator LED will flash, and a warning screen will show on the 4-line display indica ng that there is a problem with the solar panels, wiring, or that there is an issue with the AC power to the charging power supply or the power supply itself. If either the ‘NORMAL” or the “CHARGE” power supply have a no output condi on, first try turning off ...
- Page 6 P11/Pg. 4 P10/Pg. 12 P9/Pg. 11 Note: is NOT USED on the VPG2490 model. The VPG2490 uses a Limit Posi on Sensor (LPS). would only be used if you were to install the GENESIS board in an older operator with limit switches.
- Page 7 OPEN & CLOSE monitored inputs can be deac vated. This will require a special passcode to allow the servicing dealer 24-hour access to programming that can bypass the UL Rev. 6 code. To get the pass code, a phone call to AutoGate with the gate serial number or AG # and the 8 -character code displayed on the access screen. The AutoGate representa ve will read back a 5-character code that will need to be entered on the display. Again, this will allow 24-hour access to this special programming func on. A er that, if there would ever be a reason to access the special programming func ons, a new ...

As al- ways, we are only a phone call away should you need assistance at 800-944-4283. 1. Remove the (4) Tek Screws on the Top Panel using a 5/16” nut driver, remove and set aside. 2. Remove the STIFFENER PLATE (#1) from the POISITION SENSOR bracket. This allows a space to remove belts. 3. Release the MOTOR DRIVE BELT (#2) tension by loosening the (4) 3/8” CARRIAGE BOLT nuts securing the GEAR MOTOR bracket (#3) to the SIDE SLIDE plates (#4) with a 9/16” wrench. Now using a 9/16” wrench, back off the (2) Gear Motor FORCING screws (#5) so that only 1” remains through the coupling nut. 4. Slide the GEAR MOTOR assembly to create slack in the belts. 5. On the center of the pulleys. Loosen the FLANGE BEARING bolts (#6) about one turn that secure the sha bearings using a 15/16” wrench. ...

I’m putting in a safety loop for a VPG-2490/LS and I need to know where to run my wires to on the circuit board
For a safety loop on the AutoGate VPG2490/LS, run the wires to port P14, which is the Loop Rack Accessory Wiring harness port used with the LR-3 Loop Rack board.
