Page 4: Pre-Installation Checks
Pre-installation checks Thank you for choosing Gate Motors MyGate product for your gate automation needs. This instruction booklet accompanies every swing gate automation model that uses the Q71A control board. This control board tells the motors what to do and how to behave. The control board has memory chips onboard which store the key-fob transmitting codes and the parameters the motors will be working to. -

“thinks” you have pressed a STOP button and, of course, will halt all operations – regardless to any command you may give it. Be sure to tighten the terminals screws to ensure good contact is made. The MyGate Q71A Control Board Installation Manual : Printed 06/11/2012 14:18... -

“BUZZ” without movement to the mechanical arm. Connection illustrated right: Having attached the motor(s), we can now introduce the photocells to the control board. The MyGate Q71A Control Board Installation Manual : Printed 06/11/2012 14:18... -
Page 8: Photocells
Photocells The MyGate photocells are essential for safe use of your gate automation system. These are units that are comprised of a transmitter and receiver. The photocell transmitter projects an Infrared confined beam in a straight line and is intercepted by the photocell receiver. The receiver is not a mirrored unit as it absorbs the Infrared beam. -

/ pedestrian moves through the closing gates and breaks the Infrared beam – the gates will immediately stop and reverse to the full open position at great speed. The MyGate Q71A Control Board Installation Manual : Printed 06/11/2012 14:18... -

Deleting existing remote controls / key-fobs from the control board a) Press and hold the P1 button, the DL1 light will come on. Keep the button pressed until the DL1 light goes off. The MyGate Q71A Control Board Installation Manual : Printed 06/11/2012 14:18... -
Page 14: Changing The Code The Key-Fob Transmits
Once this has been completed you must program the key-fob to the control board so it can recognise the new code generated. The MyGate Q71A Control Board Installation Manual : Printed 06/11/2012 14:18... -
Page 15: Remote Control Receiver
If you find the range your radio receiver is having trouble with the interception of your key-fobs transmitting frequency and code, a MyGate Extended Aerial can be fitted to your receiver unit. Extended Aerial – (optional accessory) -
Page 16: Selecting The Operating Mode
If a START command is given while the gate is closing, the gate STOPS and REVERSES in about 1.5 seconds. To select this operating mode place the DS1 dip-switches as shown right: 1=OFF 2=ON 3=OFF The MyGate Q71A Control Board Installation Manual : Printed 06/11/2012 14:18... -
Page 17: Programming The Gates Open & Closing Cycles
(opens the gate). This is normal programming operation and is critical to the continued operation of the gates as the control board is determining its start position by pushing your gate leaf against your centre gate stop.

Page 18: Setting The Pause Time
Obstacle Detection The Q71A features built-in obstacle detection during opening and closing cycles. This feature is present during the whole gates operation and cannot be turned off. The control board automatically adjusts the detection sensibility according to the force required to the motor to physically move the gate. The obstacle detection operates by measuring the force required to move the weight of the gate and detects resistance if the gate becomes obstructed. - Page 19 The Obstacle Detection feature on this control board is completely self-learning. Please remember that it is essential after completing the installation programming process to run a complete open and close cycle before general use.
