Adjust ERD Reverse sensor

The ERD Sensor - Electronic Reversing Device (Type A) MUST be adjusted for the OPEN and CLOSE gate cycles.
When the gate encounters an obstruction during the CLOSE cycle, it will reverse to the open position and PAUSE the gate.
An input command (press remote button or exit loop) is needed BEFORE the gate will reset and close again.
When the gate encounters an obstruction during the OPEN cycle, it will reverse approximately 6 inches and PAUSE the gate.
An input command (press remote button or exit loop) is needed BEFORE the gate will reset and open again.
For the ERD Sensitivity to function correctly:
Gate positions must be learned BEFORE adjusting the ERD Sensitivity.

16 sensitivity setting positions in EACH direction.
NO mechanical hard stops for knobs.
TIP: While Adjusting ERD. . . . .
STOP Gate
Half-way
Position gate half-way open and STOP gate.
This gate position will put the most amount of
resistance on the ERD sensor when gate cycles.
CLOSE Gate
CLOSE gate. If ERD sensor triggers, reduce
sensitivity. If sensor does NOT trigger,
sensitivity is set correctly.
Position 16 results in gate exerting
before reversing direction.

IMPORTANT:
When satisfied with ERD adjustment, cycle the gate
a few times to make sure that the ERD sensor does not falsely
trigger during normal gate operation. Re-adjust if this happens.
