ASTM F2200 Standard for Gate Construction Vehicular gates should be constructed and installed in accordance with ASTM F2200; Standard Specification for Automated Vehicular Gate Construction. For a copy of this standard, contact ASTM directly at 610-832-9585; service@astm.org; or www.astm.org. Important Safety Instructions WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury or death: 1.
• For gate operators utilizing contact sensors: 1. One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exist, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate. 2.
UL325 Entrapment Protection Class I Class II A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a home of one-to four single family dwelling, or a garage or commercial location or building such as a multi-family parking area associated therewith.
Glossary GATE - A moving barrier such as a swinging, sliding, raising, lowering, or the like, barrier, that is a stand-alone passage barrier or is that portion of a wall or fence system that controls entrance and/or egress by persons or vehicles and completes the perimeter of a defined area.
Slide Gate Requirements The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
Slide Gate Protection Entrapment protection devices are required to reduce the risk of injury. Install sensors where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists while gate is moving. Individual requirements will vary. Contact Sensor (Reversing Edges) Warning Signs Installed on the fence to help minimize the potential of Permanently mounted entrapment between the gate and fence.
SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION Prior to beginning the installation of the slide gate operator, we suggest that you become familiar with the instructions, illustrations, and wiring guide-lines in this manual. This will help insure that your installation is performed in an efficient and professional manner compliant with UL 325 safety and ASTM F2200 construction standards.
1.3 Installation Options The operator MUST be level. See the next page for typical gate types. We suggest that you contact the local building depart- ment to determine the required depth of the concrete pad since soil conditions and code requirements vary from city to city. #1 - Operator Mounted Directly on a Concrete Pad Typically used when gates are less than 20 feet in length and under 2000 lbs.
1.3 Continued Gate Types v e r o v e t i l e g a t • Steel or Aluminum. n d e • 8,000 lb Max. Weight n t a per Gate (9240). r e c r a y r n a i n t c h a...

1.5 Continued - Chain Tray Kit Installing the Chain Tray Kit A chain tray is recommended for gates longer than 20 ft. to support the weight of the chain. DoorKing offers a chain tray kit in sections to fit any length gate. (DoorKing P/N 2601-270 10 Ft. section) Chain Tray Supporting Bracket...
Note: Be sure to follow all 3 guidelines. Installing the chain in any 1.6 Chain Installation other manner will cause excessive noise, chain idler wheel wear and chain stretching. Operator MUST be parallel to gate! Chain brackets MUST align with Chain brackets MUST be mounted idler wheels so chain stays parallel so the chain remains the same...
1.7 Installation of Warning Signs This DoorKing Slide Gate Operator is shipped with two warning signs. The purpose of the warning sign is to alert uninformed persons, and to remind persons familiar with the gate system, that a possible hazard exists so that appropriate action can be taken to avoid the hazard or to reduce exposure to the hazard.
2.2 High Voltage Terminal Connection • Route incoming AC power wire through the high voltage conduit and run wire in the operator electronic box as shown. • Be sure wiring is installed in accordance with local codes. Be sure to color code all wiring. •...
SECTION 3 - ADJUSTMENTS The switch settings and adjustments in this chapter should be made after your installation and wiring to the operator(s) is complete. Whenever any of the programming switches on the circuit board are changed, power must be shut-off, and then turned back on for the new setting to take effect.
3.2 DIP-Switch SW 1 and SW 2 Settings The two DIP-switches located on the circuit board are used to program the operator to operate in various modes and to turn on or off various operating features. Whenever a switch setting is changed, power to the operator must be turned OFF and then turned back on for the new setting to take affect.

3.2 Continued The two DIP-switches located on the circuit board (Upside-Down ) are used to program the operator to operate in various modes and to turn on or off various operating features. Whenever a switch setting is changed, power to the operator must be turned OFF and then turned back on for the new setting to take affect.
Check the polarity of “Three Phase” operator ONLY: Position the gate half 3.3 Limit Switches way open. Give open command 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.
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.
3.6 AC Module Adjustment The 9220, 9230 and 9240 models are equipped with an AC module that allows you to adjust the speed of the gate from 0 to 2 feet per second. To adjust the speed, simply rotate the speed control knob clockwise to increase the gate speed, or counter- clockwise to decrease the gate speed.
Secondary Entrapment Protection Devices: In addition to the inherent reversing sensor system, the 9200 Series has a 6-pin UL 325 terminal for the connection of photo sensors-Type B1 and reversing edges-Type B2 secondary entrapment protection devices required by UL 325 standards. Entrapment protection devices must be installed to reduce the risk of injury.

4.3 Loop Detector Wiring To help protect the operator from accidentally closing on vehicles in the gate’s path, DoorKing highly recommends that loops and loop detectors be installed. Loops are laid underneath, cut into asphalt or concrete driveways or buried beneath gravel and earth driveways.
5.2 Control Wiring for Single/Primary Operator Important: Controls must be far enough from the gate so that the user is prevented from coming in contact with the gate while operating the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls should have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. Auxiliary Common Terminal 4404-010...

SECTION 6 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury or death: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 2. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children. 3.
6.2 Shutdown Conditions Under various entrapment conditions the operator will assume either a soft or hard (alarm) shutdown. To determine what type of reset action is required, you will need to understand how the different entrapment conditions affect the gate operator. Soft Shutdown This occurs in various situations where the inherent or secondary entrapment protection devices have been activated.
6.3 Manual Gate Operation Caution: Never attempt to manually operate any gate until you have verified that power to the operator has been shut-off. Manual Crank Insert the supplied manual hand crank into the access hole until it engages with the motor shaft. Turn the crank to open the gate.
SECTION 7 - MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Inspection and service of this gate operator by a qualified technician should be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. High cycle usage may require more frequent service checks. 7.1 Maintenance When servicing the gate operator, always check any secondary (external) reversing devices (loops, photocells, etc.) for proper operation.
7.2 Built-In Diagnostic Tests This gate operator is designed with built-in diagnostics that will alert you to potential or existing problems that the microproces- sor has detected. Specific fault conditions are checked and the operator will signal that a fault exist through the built-in alarm. Constant alarm is heard when power is applied: This indicates that the limit switch wire harness is not connected to the circuit board.
