Control Panel Mounting The control panel should be securely mounted at or around eye level (minimum 5 ft. from floor) on the same side as the operator/junction box. Ensure that the control panel is mounted far enough away from the door as to avoid user contact with the door while in operation, but close enough that the user has clear view of the door at all times.
1. Using minimum of 18AWG cable, connect individual wires to V+, GM, GS and COM terminals in the junction box. Richards-Wilcox recommends using wiring kit (Part# PDC-CABKIT) or equivalent. 2. These will match the connections in the Control Panel and will be terminated in the same sequence (as labeled) to match the junction box (all control panel wiring shall enter through the bottom of the enclosure).

VOLTAGE RANGE NOTE: USING AN INCORRECT VOLTAGE SETTING COULD LEAD TO THE DOOR OPERATING AT AN UNSAFE SPEED. This operator is designed to work with SINGLE PHASE voltages from 110-240Vac (for 3 phase voltage, use optional external transformer). There are 2 available settings, 110-130V or 208-240V, and proper selection for your installation MUST to be made prior to operation.
OPENING SPEED To access the Open Speed Settings, ensure you are in QUICKSTART MENU (see above instructions), then toggle between options using the OPEN or CLOSE buttons until Open Speed appears on the screen. Then press the STOP button to access and macke changes. The Dyna-Hoist operator is factory equipped with 5 options of open speed settings, designated as 1 (slowest) to 5 (fastest - approximately 24"/s).
ADVANCED MENU NOTE: THESE FEATURES SHOULD BE ACCESSED ONLY BY A TRAINED TECHNICIAN AFTER INITIAL SET UP AND TESTING, ONLY IF REQUIRED. For access to the ADVANCED MENU options press and hold the STOP BUTTON FOR 10 SECONDS while on the QUICKSTART MENU screen. Do not release until ADVANCED MENU appears on the screen.
OPEN SLOW SPEED When the door is approaching open limit and decelerates down to slow speed before the stop (Soft Stop), added force/speed may be required to complete opening. While this is indcative of an improperly balanced door, this feature can be used to compensate. This setting should only be changed from the NORMAL to the HIGH setting if door becomes unbalanced over time and does not completely travel to Open limit.
This feature is required to calibrate load-sensing. Screen prompts guide user through calibration. NOTE: IF YOU CHANGE ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SETTINGS, THE OPERATOR WILL PROMPT YOU TO RECALIBRATE WHEN EXITING THE MENU: Voltage Range, Motor position, Door Limits, Open Speed, Close Speed, PWM Frequency, Open Rampdown and Close Rampdown.
MOTION DETECT TIME As an added safety feature, the encoder monitors the rotation of the shaft. Should it detect no motion where there should be motion, the system will halt the cycle command, and show a fault display of 'NO MOTION DETECTED'. The allowable delay before this fault is recognized by the system can be adjusted from 0.2s to 0.6s, but should not be altered from the Factory Default setting of 0.3s unless instructed to do so by technical support personnel.
Drives are rated IP54, and could be vulnerable to water ingress. Furthermore, reflective photo-eye sensors have a tendency to be detrimentally affected by condensation on the reflector, preventing reliable operation in such conditions. Richards-Wilcox offers a cost- effective Water-resistant upgrade that both seals all ingress points, and includes a thru-beam sensor in place of a reflective photo-eye.
