GTO Wireless Exit Sensor
Signal Cable
Kit Includes:
• Wireless vehicle sensor with direct burial coil assembly and a plug-in electronics/transmitter
module designed for mounting up to 15 feet away from the pavement edge.
• RB709U-NB two channel receiver with instructions.
• Two size AA batteries.
• GTO Wireless Exit Sensor instruction manual for general installation guidance.
Thank you for purchasing the GTO Wireless Exit Sensor. Please read the directions carefully and completely before installing.
How it works:
The GTO wireless exit sensor consists of a vehicle sensor, transmitter, and programmable dip switches.
The maximum range between transmitter and receiver is 80-100 ft.
The transmitter module transmits a special GTO transmitter code with additional information to tell the receiver
that this device should be treated as a "free exit" device. The latest GTO gate operators with blue control boards
(GTO "GEN3") are able to decode this format and recognize the device as a free exit or open only command
without the use of the RB709U-NB receiver. This will simplify installations so only the original receiver will be
required.
The RB709U-NB receiver will be required unless you have the GEN 3 (blue board). The RB-709U-NB has two
channels that can be programmed to operate a remote transmitter or keypad and wireless wand. For instance,
Channel 1 could be wired to the Cycle and COM accessory terminals and could be programmed to operate a
transmitter and keypad. Channel 2 could be wired to the Exit and COM accessory terminals and could be used
to operate the wireless exit sensor. Depending on the frequency of use (vehicle traffic) the two AA batteries will
last about 1 to 3 years.

Page 2: Sensor Placement
• Locate the SENSOR away from general moving traffic to prevent unwanted activation. Remember that the SENSOR detects MAGNETIC DISTURBANCES caused by a vehicle’s mass and velocity. • Range distance is approximate and will vary due to outside interference, type of soil, vehicle mass, speed, etc. • It is recommended that you run the Signal Cable inside PVC conduit to prevent accidental damage. • Do not run Signal Cable in conduit with other wires such as AC power or other control wires. • The SIGNAL CABLE CANNOT BE SPLICED. If you need more wire, contact the GTO Sales Department at 1-800-543-GATE (4283). RANGE: 12 ft. radius (max) W i r e l e s s E x i t S e n s o r NOTE: Place the transmitter on the same side of the driveway in the line of sight of the receiver to maximize the range. - Page 3 Transmitter Module Placement Determining Transmitter Module Location • Choose a location for the transmitter module that is far enough from the driveway edge that vehicles are unlikely to hit it. Fifteen feet of wire is included to allow the transmitter to be 12 to 15 feet from the driveway. To test the chosen location to be sure it is free from obstructions or other interference, you can use your remote control transmitter at the same height as the transmitter module to activate the gate. Receiver • NOTE: For GTO Receiver #AQ201-NB (Grey in Color) R4500 Wireless Wand is “plug and play” and will work. For GTO Receiver #A2Q201 (Black) and all other model receivers, enclosed RB709U-NB is required. • After laying the vehicle sensor in the hole adjacent to the driveway. Run the signal cable to the transmitter module in the narrow trench. Do not fill the hole or trench until satisfactory operation is verified. Install the Vehicle Sensor DO NOT fill the hole until final testing is complete.
