    Check the polarity: Position the gate half way open. Give open command 3.3 Limit Switches and while gate is opening, activate the appropriate limit switch with your finger. Gate should STOP. If it does not, activate the other limit switch. If this STOPS the gate, AC power wires must be changed (Reverse the connection of any 2 wires and re-check limits).

  • Page 23: Inherent Reverse Sensor Adjustment

    3.4 Inherent Reverse Sensors Adjustment This vehicular gate operator is equipped with an inherent adjustable reversing sensor (Type A) used as the primary entrapment protection system according to UL 325 standards. The gate will reverse direction after “physically” encountering an obstruction in either the opening or closing gate cycle.

  • Page 24: Ac Module Adjustment

    3.6 AC Module Adjustment 9500s are equipped with an AC module that allows you to adjust the speed of the gate from 0 to 2 ft/ sec or 0 to 4 ft/sec on the high speed models. To adjust the speed, simply rotate the speed control knob clockwise to increase the gate speed, or counter- clockwise to decrease the gate speed.
