    FEATURES INTRODUCTION The GEMINI 220 V sliding gate system is a self contained unit which comprise of a single 220 Volt AC electrical motor that drives the rack pinion via a gearbox. The gearbox, electrical motor and associated components are mounted in a rust treated base box. The base box is secured to the base plate, which in turn is cemented or bolted to a concrete base.

    WARNINGS NEVER WORK ON THE SYSTEM WITH THE ELECTRICAL POWER ON. NEVER ALLOW PERSONS OR ANIMALS TO STAND ON THE GATE OR TRACK WHILE THE GATE IS IN MOTION. KEEP HANDS CLEAR OF THE RACK AND PINION GEAR WHILE THE MOTOR IS IN OPERATION.
  • Page 7: Installation Of The Unit

    INSTALLATION OF THE UNIT INITIAL PREPARATIONS FOR MOUNTING THE BASE PLATE To determine the position for installing your GEMINI, fully close the gate and place the unit (with base plate attached) in position so that the pinion gear is approximately 15 mm away from the gate. Locate the base plate against the existing gate track (the base plate is to be welded to this track at a later stage).
  • Page 8: Mounting The Rack

    MOUNTING THE RACK Starting at one end of the gate, weld the rack in position by using the angle iron brackets. The following critical points must be considered: When determining the position of the rack, the manual override lever must be in the upright position. The angle iron brackets must not be more than 600 mm apart.
  • Page 9: Connecting The 220 V Electrical Supply

    CONNECTING THE 220 V ELECTRICAL SUPPLY CAUTION Under no circumstances must the main electrical supply be wired directly from a power source. As a safety precaution, an ON/OFF switch must be incorporated into the electrical circuit, normally within 1 meter from the unit. Electrical power supply - Connect to the two terminal blocks marked: 220V MAINS.
  • Page 10: Other Connections

    OTHER CONNECTIONS 220 V Light - Connect to terminal blocks marked: 220 V LIGHT. Light will be activated when the gate is opened and switches off ± 3 minutes after the gate has closed. Pedestrian Facility - Connect to terminal blocks marked: COMMON and PED.
  • Page 11 On a single function transmitter, place dip switch No. 1 to the ON position. Do the same on the receiver. From dip switch No. 2 to No. 12 place the switches in random sequence to the ON or OFF positions. Ensure that the receiver dip switch settings match the transmitter settings.
  • Page 12: Fitting The Alluminium Stoppers

    FITTING THE ALLUMINIUM STOPPERS Position the “open and close” alluminium stops on the rack so that they will push the limit switch spring in time to stop the gate in the correct position. Once the stops are in position, tighten the grub screws, using an Allen key. REVERSING THE ELECTRICAL MOTOR DIRECTION Refer to the electrical diagram on Page 22.
  • Page 13: Obstruction Sensing Adjustment

    When the gate is initially activated (during installation) and the gate direction is incorrect, the gate direction jumper must be unplugged and moved to the opposite set of pins. Ensure that the jumper is fully plugged OBSTRUCTION SENSING ADJUSTMENT -- Page 13 --...
  • Page 14: Setting The Auto Close Dip Switches

    Obstruction sensing should be set so that the gate will stop and reverse on impact while closing. The obstruction sensors are set at the factory, but it will be necessary to adjust these sensors to suit your gate. Impact sensitivity is adjusted by adjusting the screws (1) on either side of the electrical motor.

    OPERATING PROCEDURES INITIAL TESTING PROCEDURES AFTER INSTALLATION Lower the manual override lever and move the gate to halfway open position. Raise the override lever to engage the pinion into the rack. Press the remote control button. The gate must move to the open position and stop.
  • Page 17: Led Display

    If Gate Were Opening: The gate will stop and wait for the next command. If the “Auto Close” function is selected, the gate will close after the preset time. If the gate senses an obstruction while closing, the gate will stop and move to the open position.

    TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE Should a problem occur, consult the following table first before calling your local GEMINI agent. The table is set out in Problem, Possible Cause and Remedy and/or Test, to enable quick identification and location of faults. Care has been taken in the compilation of this Trouble-Shooting Guide to include all likely malfunctions that could occur.

  • Page 21: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE The GEMINI sliding gate opener system is a maintenance free unit and needs very little attention other than checking the gate track for obstructions (excessive dirt, sand, stones, etc). On a 6-monthly basis, it is advisable to remove the protection lid and blow off all accumulated dust and dirt from the unit with low pressure compressed air.
