Manual Adjustments with a Remote Control

To set the limits using a remote control, first you will need a 3-button remote control that has been programmed for OPEN, CLOSE, and STOP. Refer to
the Programming section.
Enter Manual Setup Mode
NOTE: For dual gate applications the limits will have to be set for
each operator. The gate MUST be attached to the operator before
setting the limits and force.
NOTE: While setting the Limits, all entrapment protection devices
will be disconnected, and the Remote Control buttons can be used to
move the gate as needed. During the Automatic Force Setup, all
entrapment protection devices will be reconnected, and the gate will
automatically open and close.
Ensure the gate is closed.
1. To enter manual set up mode, make sure that both SET OPEN and
SET CLOSE LEDs are flashing. If they are not flashing, press and
release both the SET OPEN and SET CLOSE buttons.
Reversal Force Dial
2. The REVERSAL FORCE DIAL is set to minimum at the factory. You
will be able to adjust the force setting after the initial Manual Setup.
Once initial limits have been set, the REVERSAL FORCE dial on the
Control Board is used to fine tune the force where wind or
environmental changes may affect the gate travel.
Settings 1-10: Automatically increase the force due to gate wear or
temperature changes.
Set the Limits
3. Press and hold the OPEN or CLOSE button on the remote control
until the gate reaches the desired open position. The gate can be
jogged back and forth using the OPEN and CLOSE buttons on the
remote control.

STOP button on the remote control.

until the gate reaches the desired close position. The gate can be
jogged back and forth using the OPEN and CLOSE buttons on the
