Quick Start - Supplement Revision C This document supplies site planning scenarios and reference tables that help explain the UL 325-2016 requirements for monitoring of external entrapment protection sensors. HySecurity is monitoring Normally Closed (NC) sensors to conform to UL 325 monitored entrapment protection requirements.
PECIFIC TO ONITORED NTRAPMENT The following is found in HySecurity Programming and Operations Manuals, but re-iterated here. Before installing the gate operator: Mount access control devices beyond reach of the gate. The control devices that operate the gate must: •...
• Build Year (BY) - An added menu item distinguishes between pre-2016 manufacturing dates and post-2016 manufacturing dates. Build Year (BY) is a factory-setting. Build Year 2 (BY 2) is the default for all HySecurity gate operators indicating a manufacturing date of 2016 in the serial number.

Table 3: External Entrapment Protection Sensors Approved for Use with HySecurity Gate Operators The site designer or installer must determine which external entrapment protection sensors will be installed with the gate operator to create a UL 325 compliant installation site.

ANDLES ONITORED NTRAPMENT Since HySecurity gate operators use software to control gate movement, contacts, and accessories, the changeover to monitored sensors is simple. In fact, the ability to monitor sensors has always been an available Installer Menu item. (Refer •...

Table 6: Setting the Sensor Logic External entrapment protection sensors can be wired to any one of the three sensor inputs on the HySecurity Controller. The sensor logic, such as Eye Close Logic (EC), Eye Open Logic (EO) and Gate Edge Logic (GR) remain accessible in the Installer Menu, if the corresponding sensor type is installed, and determines how the gate operator will react when a monitored sensor is activated.

Type D – Actuating device requiring continuous pressure to maintain opening or closing motion of the gate. The changes that occurred to HySecurity software and discussed on the previous pages are based on compliance with the UL 325 -2016 Standard of Safety.
