## IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

## WARNING

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate:

- Pinch points must be guarded at ALL times. Install enclosed-style gate tracks and roller guards.
- Place screen mesh 6 feet (1.8 m) high on the gate to prevent access through openings anywhere the gate may travel.
- Mount controls at least 6 feet (1.8 m) from the gate or ANY moving part of the gate.
- Install Warning signs on EACH side of gate in PLAIN VIEW. Permanently secure each Warning sign in a suitable manner using fastening holes.
- This operator is intended for vehicular use ONLY. To prevent INJURY to pedestrians, a separate pedestrian access should be supplied, visible from the gate. Locate the pedestrian access where there is NOT a chance of INJURY at ANY point during full movement of the gate.
- Contact sensors MUST be located at the leading and trailing edges, and post mounted BOTH inside and outside a horizontal swing gate. Non-contact sensors such as photoelectric sensors MUST be mounted across the gate opening and operate during BOTH the open and close cycles.
- Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone who may come near a moving gate.
- Locate entrapment protection devices to protect in BOTH the open and close gate cycles.
- Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving gate and RIGID objects, such as posts or walls.
- Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety reversal system.
- NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move gate.
- NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking gate.
- If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other control may also need adjustment.
- After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object.
- DO NOT touch the heater when switch is on, heater may be hot.

## CAUTION

- To AVOID damaging gas, power or other underground utility lines, contact underground utility locating companies BEFORE digging more than 18 inches (46 cm) deep.
- ALWAYS wear protective gloves and eye protection when changing the battery or working around the battery compartment.

## STEP 3

### POSITION THE GATE BRACKET

*NOTE: It may be necessary to attach horizontal reinforcement to the gate before attaching the gate bracket.*

1. Position the operator arm onto the output shaft so that the pin slides into the slot.

2. Measure 46 inches along the gate length from the gate hinge center.

3. Measure 27.5 inches up from the concrete pad to the gate hinge position on the gate as shown.

4. Make sure the operator arm is level and tack weld the gate bracket in this position. Use the set screws on the arm to temporarily hold the arm in place while determining the correct measurements.

## STEP 4

### ADJUST THE OPERATOR ARM LENGTH

*NOTE: The length of the arm can be adjusted if necessary. If adjusting the length, ensure that both sections of the arm are adjusted proportionally. Use the set screws on the arm to temporarily hold the arm in place while determining the correct measurements.*

1. Close the gate and measure the distance of the operator arm from the gate bracket to the output shaft center. This distance is E.

2. Open the gate 90 degrees (do not allow arms to scissor when open). Measure both sections of the arm (D and C). The arm lengths are correct as long as C+D=E (arm should be perpendicular to the gate in the open position as shown).

# INSTALLATION

## WARNING

To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate:
- Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone who may come near a moving gate.
- Locate entrapment protection devices to protect in BOTH the open and close gate cycles.
- Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving gate and RIGID objects, such as posts or walls.

## STEP 6

### INSTALL ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION

**At least one external monitored entrapment protection device is required prior to gate movement (effective January of 2016).** A monitored device sends a pulsed signal to the operator so the operator is aware of the device. If the operator does not receive the signal from the device it will not run.

An entrapment zone is every location or point of contact where a person can become entrapped between a moving gate and a stationary object. All gate operator systems REQUIRE two independent entrapment protection systems for each entrapment zone. This operator contains an inherent (internal) entrapment protection system and REQUIRES the addition of an external entrapment protection system (non-contact photoelectric sensor or contact edge sensor) for EACH entrapment zone.

Your application may contain one or many entrapment zones. Property owners are obligated to test entrapment protection devices monthly.

### NON-CONTACT SENSORS

If the photoelectric sensor beam gets blocked while the gate is moving, the gate will stop and reverse for 4 seconds. The gate will not be able to travel in that direction until the obstruction is cleared. CPS-UN4 or CPS-RPEN4GM monitored photoelectric sensors MUST be used. If a monitored photoelectric sensor is not working or loses power or the beam is blocked, then ALL gate operation in that direction will stop.

# INSTALLATION

## STEP 6 continued...

### INSTALL ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION

There are three options for wiring the entrapment protection devices depending on the specific device and how the device will function. Refer to the wiring diagram or the specific entrapment protection device manual for more information. These entrapment protection device inputs are for monitored devices, which include pulsed photoelectric sensors, resistive edge sensors, and pulsed edge sensors. *NOTE: Only one monitored entrapment protection device may be wired to each input.*

### CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT (2 Terminals)

The CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT input is for photoelectric sensor entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will open to the full open position and resets the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening.

### CLOSE EDGE (2 Terminals)

The CLOSE EDGE input is for edge sensor entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop, disengaging the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening.

### OPEN EYES/EDGE (2 Terminals)

The OPEN EYES/EDGE input is for photoelectric sensor or edge sensor entrapment protection for the open direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate opening the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop. This input will be disregarded during gate closing.

## STEP 7

### EARTH GROUND ROD

Use the proper earth ground rod for your local area. The ground wire must be a single, whole piece of wire. Never splice two wires for the ground wire. If you should cut the ground wire too short, break it, or destroy its integrity, replace it with a single wire length.

1. Install the earth ground rod within 3 feet of the operator.

2. Run wire from the earth ground rod to the operator.

*NOTE: If the operator is not grounded properly the range of the remote controls will be reduced and the operator will be more susceptible to lightning and surge damage.*

### BIPART DELAY/SYNCHRONIZED CLOSE

The LOCK/BIPART DELAY switch is used only with dual gate applications and serves two functions:

- **BIPART DELAY**

  *SWING GATE APPLICATIONS:* The BIPART DELAY is used in applications where a mag-lock, solenoid lock, or decorative overlay would require one gate to close before the other. The operator with the LOCK/BIPART DELAY switch ON will delay from the close limit when opening and be the first to close from the open limit.

  *SLIDE GATE APPLICATIONS:* Not applicable, set to OFF.

- **SYNCHRONIZED CLOSE**

  The BIPART DELAY is also used in applications where one gate travels a longer distance than the other. To synchronize the closing of the gates, set the LOCK/BIPART DELAY switch to ON for both operators.

# ADJUSTMENT

## LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENT

## WARNING

To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
- Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a moving gate.
- Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety reversal system.
- NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move gate.
- NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking gate.
- If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other control may also need adjustment.
- After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object.

### INTRODUCTION

Your operator is designed with electronic controls to make travel limit and force adjustments easy. The adjustments allow you to program where the gate will stop in the open and close position. The electronic controls sense the amount of force required to open and close the gate. The force is adjusted automatically when you program the limits but should be fine tuned using the REVERSAL FORCE dial on the control board (refer to Fine Tune the Force section) to compensate for environmental changes. The limit setup LEDs (located next to the SET OPEN and SET CLOSE buttons) indicate the status of the limits, refer to the table to the right.

The limits can be set using the control board (below) or a remote control (refer to Limit Setup with a Remote Control in the Additional Features section). Setting the limits with a remote control requires a 3-button remote control programmed to OPEN, CLOSE, and STOP.

*NOTE: The Test Buttons on the control board will not work until the limits have been set.*

### LIMIT SETUP LEDS

| SET OPEN LED | SET CLOSE LED | OPERATOR MODE | EXPLANATION |
|---|---|---|---|
| OFF | OFF | NORMAL MODE | Limits are set. |
| BLINKING | BLINKING | LIMIT SETTING MODE | Limits are not set. |
| BLINKING | ON | LIMIT SETTING MODE | Open limit is not set. |
| ON | BLINKING | LIMIT SETTING MODE | Close limit is not set. |
| ON | ON | LIMIT SETTING MODE | Limits are set. |

### INITIAL LIMITS AND FORCE ADJUSTMENT

**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.**

1. Press and release the SET OPEN and SET CLOSE buttons simultaneously to enter limit setting mode.

2. Press and hold one of the MOVE GATE buttons to move the gate to the open or close limit.

3. Press and release the SET CLOSE or SET OPEN button depending on which limit is being set.

4. Press and hold one of the MOVE GATE buttons to move the gate to the other limit.

5. Press and release the SET CLOSE or SET OPEN button depending on which limit is being set.

6. Cycle the gate open and close. This automatically sets the force.

When limits are set properly the operator will automatically exit limit setting mode.

# ADJUSTMENT

## LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENT continued...

### FINE TUNE THE FORCE

The REVERSAL FORCE DIAL on the control board is used for fine tuning the force in cases where wind or environmental changes may affect the gate travel.

Based on the length and weight of the gate it may be necessary to make additional force adjustments. The force setting should be high enough that the gate will not reverse by itself nor cause nuisance interruptions, but low enough to prevent serious injury to a person. The force setting is the same for both the open and close gate directions.

1. Open and close the gate with the test buttons.

2. If the gate stops or reverses before reaching the fully open or closed position, increase the force by turning the force control slightly clockwise.

3. Perform the "Obstruction Test" after every force setting adjustment (see below).

[Image: Control board showing TEST BUTTONS, REVERSAL FORCE dial location with MIN and MAX labels, and BATT LOW indicator. The dial shows markings from 60 range with MIN to MAX]

### ADJUST THE LIMITS

After both limits are set and the operator is ready to run, one limit can be adjusted independently from the other by following steps 1-3 of the Initial Limit and Force Adjustment section, on page 22.

[Image: Control board showing SET OPEN, SET CLOSE, and DELAY buttons]

### OBSTRUCTION TEST

The operator is equipped with an automatic obstruction sensing feature. If the gate encounters an obstruction during motion, the operator will automatically reverse direction of the gate for a short time and then stop the gate. After any adjustments are made, test the operator:

1. Open and close the gate with the test buttons, ensuring that the gate is stopping at the proper open and close limit positions.

2. Place a solid object between the open gate and a rigid structure. Ensure that the gate, the solid object, and the rigid structure can withstand the forces generated during this obstruction test.

3. Run the gate in the close direction. The gate should stop and reverse upon contact with the solid object. If the gate does not reverse off the solid object, reduce the force setting by turning the force control slightly counter-clockwise. The gate should have enough force to reach both the open and close limits, but MUST reverse after contact with a solid object.

4. Repeat the test for the open direction.

## CONTROL BOARD OVERVIEW

1. **SET OPEN Button:** The SET OPEN button sets the OPEN limit. See Adjust Limits section.

2. **SET CLOSE Button:** The SET CLOSE button sets the CLOSE limit. See Adjust Limits section.

3. **MOVE GATE Buttons:** The MOVE GATE buttons will either open or close the gate when the operator is in Limit setting mode. See Adjust Limits section.

4. **BATT FAIL:**
   - When AC power is OFF and battery voltage is critically low the gate will latch at a limit until AC power is restored or batteries voltage increases.
   - Option select switch set to OPEN forces gate to automatically open and then latch at the OPEN limit until AC power is restored or battery voltage increases.
   - Option select switch set to CLOSE forces gate to latch at CLOSE limit if at CLOSE limit or on next CLOSE command until AC power restored or battery voltage increases.
   - Constant pressure on a hard command input overrides to open or close the gate.
   - Critically low battery is less than 23 V

5. **BIPART DELAY Switch:** The LOCK/BIPART DELAY switch is used only for dual gates. See Bipart Delay section.

6. **LEARN Button:** The LEARN button is for programming remote controls and the network.

7. **TIMER-TO-CLOSE dial:** The TIMER-TO-CLOSE (TTC) dial can be set to automatically close the gate after a specified time period. The TTC is factory set to OFF. If the TTC is set to the OFF position, then the gate will remain open until the operator receives another command from a control. Rotate the TIMER-TO-CLOSE dial to the desired setting. The range is 0 to 180 seconds, 0 seconds is OFF.
   *NOTE: Any radio command, single button control, or CLOSE command on the control board prior to the TTC expiring will close the gate. The TTC is reset by any signals from the open controls, loops, close edges, and close photoelectric sensors (IR's).*

8. **REVERSAL FORCE dial:** The REVERSAL FORCE dial adjusts the force. See Force Adjustment section.

### OPERATION

#### MANUAL DISCONNECT

Press the reset switch to RESET/DISCONNECT. Release the handle on the operator arm to allow the gate to be opened and closed manually. On a dual gate application the handle must be released on both operators. To resume normal function tighten the handle by pushing it down.

[Diagram: Shows Manual Disconnect Handle with two positions labeled "NORMAL OPERATION" and "RESET/DISCONNECT"]

#### RESET SWITCH

The reset switch is located on the front of the operator and serves several functions.

Toggling the reset switch will stop a moving gate during a normal open/close cycle, like a stop button. The operator does not need to be reset after doing this. The reset switch will disable the gate in the present position and will energize the solenoid lock for two minutes and disable the maglock for two minutes.

#### OPERATOR ALARM

If a contact sensor detects an obstruction twice consecutively the alarm will sound (up to 5 minutes) and the operator will need to be reset.

When the inherent force of the operator (RPM/current sensor) detects the following (twice consecutively) the alarm will sound (up to 5 minutes) and the operator will need to be reset:

A. The operator arm or gate is incorrectly installed.

B. The gate does not meet specifications.

C. Gate hinges are too tight or broken and the gate is not moving freely.

D. The gate is moving and a car pushes the gate.

E. A foreign object is on the gate frame while the gate is moving.

F. The gate hits the driveway or curb and gets stuck or bent in an awkward position.

Remove any obstructions. Press the reset button to shut off the alarm and reset the operator. After the operator is reset, normal functions will resume.

The operator alarm will beep 3 times with a command if the battery is low.

[Diagrams A-F: Six illustrations showing various gate obstruction scenarios including incorrect installation, gate hit by car, foreign objects, and gate hitting driveway]

#### REMOTE CONTROL

**SINGLE BUTTON CONTROL (SBC) FUNCTIONALITY**

Once the remote control has been programmed the operator will operate as follows:

When gate is in the closed position, activation of the remote control button will open the gate. During the open cycle another activation of the remote control will stop the gate and the next activation of the remote control will close the gate.

When the gate is in the open position, activation of the remote control button will close the gate. If the remote control is activated while the gate is closing, the gate will stop and the next activation will open the gate.

### ACCESSORY WIRING

#### EXTERNAL CONTROL DEVICES

**EXIT (2 Terminals)**

This input is a soft open command (maintained switch does not override external safeties and does not reset alarm condition). Used for exit probe, telephone entry, external exit loop detector, or any device that would command the gate to open.

- Opens a closing gate and holds open an open gate, if maintained, pauses Timer-to-Close at OPEN limit.

**SHADOW (2 Terminals)**

This input is used for external shadow loop detector when loop is positioned under the swing of the gate.

- Holds open gate at open limit
- Only active when the gate is at the OPEN limit, disregarded at all other times
- Pauses Timer-to-Close at OPEN limit

**INTERRUPT (2 Terminals)**

This input is used for photoelectric sensors and external interrupt loop detector when loop is on the outside of the gate.

- Holds open gate at open limit
- Stops and reverses a closing gate to open limit
- Pauses Timer-to-Close at OPEN limit, activates quick close and anti-tailgate features when enabled on the expansion board

[Diagram: Control board showing terminal connections labeled Exit, Com, Shadow, Com, Interrupt, Com]

[Diagram: Gate installation showing positions of Interrupt Loop, Shadow Loop, and Exit Loop]

#### VEHICLE DETECTION DEVICES

The same accessory inputs used for vehicle detection devices are also used for entrapment protection devices (refer to step 6 of Installation). The vehicle detection devices may be monitored or non-monitored, but only ONE monitored device may be connected to each input, inclusive of entrapment protection devices. Multiple non-monitored devices can be wired to the same input. A monitored device sends a pulsed signal to the operator so the operator is aware of the device. If the operator does not receive the signal from the device indicating it is working properly, it will not run in that direction.

**CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT (2 Terminals)**

The CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT input is for photoelectric sensor vehicle detection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will open to the full open position. This input will be disregarded during gate opening and resets the Timer-to-Close.

**CLOSE EDGE (2 Terminals)**

The CLOSE EDGE input is for edge sensor vehicle detection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop, disengaging the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening.

**OPEN EYES/EDGE (2 Terminals)**

The OPEN EYES/EDGE input is for photoelectric sensor or edge sensor vehicle detection for the open direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate opening the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop. This input will be disregarded during gate closing.

### EXPANSION BOARD

## CAUTION

To AVOID damaging the circuit board, relays or accessories, DO NOT connect more than 42 Vdc (32 Vac) to the AUX relay contact terminal blocks.

#### EXPANSION BOARD OVERVIEW

**1 QUICK CLOSE Switch:**

OFF: No change to the gate's normal operation.
ON: When CLOSE EYES/Interrupt loop is deactivated it causes an opening or a stopped gate to close (ignores the Timer-to-Close).

**2 AC FAIL Switch:**

OPEN: Loss of AC power will cause the gate to open approximately 15 seconds after AC power fail and remain OPEN until AC power is restored (enabling the Timer-to-Close).
BATT: With loss of AC power, gate will remain in present position and operator is powered from batteries.

**3 EXIT LOOP FAIL Switch:**

When set to OPEN, if the EXIT plug-in loop detector (Model LOOPDETLM) detects a fault, then the gate will open and remain open until fault is cleared. When set to CLOSE, then plug-in EXIT loop detector faults are ignored (EXIT loop is faulted and inoperative).

**4 ANTI-TAIL Switch:**

OFF: When CLOSE EYES/Interrupt loop is activated it causes a closing gate to stop and reverse.
ON: When CLOSE EYES/Interrupt loop is activated it causes a closing gate to pause. Once the vehicle is clear the gate will continue to close.

**5 AUX RELAY Switches:** Set the AUX RELAY switches as needed to obtain the desired function as shown on the following page.

**6 EYE/EDGE Switches:** Set the EYE/EDGE switches as needed to obtain the desired OPEN or CLOSE functionality.

**7 1, 2, and 3 LEDs:** LEDs indicating the status of the EYE/EDGE inputs. Also used to check the firmware version of the expansion board:

1. Locate the 1, 2, and 3 LEDs on the expansion board.

2. Disconnect AC/DC power to the main control board for 15 seconds.

3. Connect power. The 1, 2, and 3 LEDs will flash in sequence until the main control board firmware revision is displayed. When the green POWER LED glows solid the LED 1 will flash the version number, then stop, then the LED 2 will flash the revision number (for example: For version 5.1 when the green POWER LED is solid the LED 1 will flash 5 times, then stop, then the LED 2 will flash once).

**8 MAIN BOARD Input:** Input Connection for the main board connector.

**9 Input LEDs:** LEDs indicating the status of the SBC, OPN, CLS, and STP inputs.

**10 Loop Detector Inputs:** Inputs for the Plug-In Loop Detectors (Model LOOPDETLM)

| **Cycle Quantity Feedback*** | ON | ON | ON | The 1, 2, and 3 LEDs will blink out the cycle count (cycle count is stored on the control board). See below. | Not used. |

#### CYCLE COUNT

\* First, note the current Aux Relay switch positions. To determine the actual cycles that the gate operator has run (in thousands), set all three Aux Relay switches to the ON setting for Aux Relay 1. The Expansion Board's 1, 2, and 3 LEDs will blink out the cycle count, with 1 LED blinking 1000's, 2 LED blinking 10,000's, 3 LED blinking 100,000's, and simultaneously all three LED's blink 1,000,000's (e.g. 1 LED blinks 3 times, 2 LED blinks 6 times, and 3 LED blinks once. Cycle count is 163,000.). Cycle count displayed is between 1,000 and 9,999,000 cycles. After servicing, set Aux Relay switches back to their appropriate positions. Cycle count cannot be reset or changed. If under 1,000 cycles the 1, 2, and 3 LEDs will turn on for 10 seconds, then turn off.

*NOTE: The expansion board will flash the cycle count 3 times then all the LEDs will turn on solid for 10 seconds then turn off.*

### MAINTENANCE

#### IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

## WARNING

To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:

- READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
- ANY maintenance to the operator or in the area near the operator MUST NOT be performed until disconnecting the electrical power (AC or solar and battery) and locking-out the power via the operator power switch. Upon completion of maintenance the area MUST be cleared and secured, at that time the unit may be returned to service.
- Disconnect power at the fuse box BEFORE proceeding. Operator MUST be properly grounded and connected in accordance with national and local electrical codes. *NOTE: The operator should be on a separate fused line of adequate capacity.*
- NEVER let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children.
- ALWAYS keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
- The entrance is for vehicles ONLY. Pedestrians MUST use separate entrance.
- Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or reverse when an object activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel, retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly can increase the risk of INJURY or DEATH.
- Use the manual disconnect release ONLY when the gate is not moving.
- KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the owner's manual. Have a qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware.
- ALL maintenance MUST be performed by a LiftMaster professional.
- Activate gate ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is properly adjusted and there are no obstructions to gate travel.
- To reduce the risk of FIRE or INJURY to persons use ONLY LiftMaster part 29-NP712 for replacement batteries.
- SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

## CAUTION

- ALWAYS wear protective gloves and eye protection when changing the battery or working around the battery compartment.

#### MAINTENANCE CHART

**Disconnect all power (AC, solar, battery) to the operator before servicing.** The operator's AC Power switch ONLY turns off AC power to the control board and DOES NOT turn off battery power. ALWAYS disconnect the batteries to service the operator.

| DESCRIPTION | TASK | CHECK AT LEAST ONCE EVERY | | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| | | **MONTH** | **6 MONTHS** | **3 YEARS** |

*NOTES:*
- *Severe or high cycle usage will require more frequent maintenance checks.*
- *It is suggested that while at the site voltage readings be taken at the operator. Using a digital voltmeter, verify that the incoming voltage to the operator is within ten percent of the operator's rating.*

#### BATTERIES

Batteries will degrade over time depending on temperature and usage. The operator alarm will beep 3 times with a command if the battery is low. Batteries do not perform well in extremely cold temperatures. For best performance, the batteries should be replaced every 3 years. Use only LiftMaster part 29-NP712 for replacement batteries. The operator comes with two 7AH batteries. Two 33AH (A12330SGLPK), 33AH Battery Harness (K94-37236) with additional battery tray (K10-36183) may be used in place of the 7AH batteries.

The batteries contain lead and need to be disposed of properly.

*NOTE: If your application includes a heater, two 33AH will not fit into the operator enclosure.*

#### STEP 3

#### SHORTEN THE OPERATOR ARM

**COMPACT INSTALLATION ONLY**

For a compact installation the operator arm will have to be shortened.

1. Take the operator arm apart and remove the inner sleeves from the outer tubing.

2. Cut the outer tubing of the operator arm sections to the lengths shown.

3. Put the arm back together and adjust the arm to the measurements as shown. Use the set screws on the arm to temporarily hold the arm in place while determining the correct measurements.

[Diagram 1: Full operator arm assembly]

[Diagram 3: Assembly with Set Screws, showing 23" and 25-1/2" measurements]

#### STEP 4

#### POSITION THE GATE BRACKET

**COMPACT INSTALLATION ONLY**

*NOTE: It may be necessary to attach horizontal reinforcement to the gate before attaching the gate bracket. Use the set screws on the arm to temporarily hold the arm in place while determining the correct measurements.*

1. Position the operator arm onto the output shaft so that the pin slides into the slot.

2. Measure 33 inches along the gate length from the gate hinge center.

3. Measure 27.5 inches up from the concrete pad to the gate hinge position on the gate as shown.

4. Make sure the operator arm is level and tack weld the gate bracket in this position.

**Proceed to Step 5 of the installation.**

### APPENDIX

#### STEP 8

#### SOLAR PANELS

**NOT PROVIDED. SEE ACCESSORIES.**

Solar Application requirements:

- A minimum of two 10W solar panels in series (Model SOLPNL10W12V).
- A maximum of six 10W solar panels (Model SOLPNL10W12V).
- Battery Tray (Model K10-36183).
- Solar Battery Harness (Model K94-37236).
- Two 33AH batteries, the standard 7AH batteries cannot be used.
- A heater cannot be used with a solar application.

Disconnect the expansion board if it is not in use to improve performance. We recommend LiftMaster low power draw accessories to minimize power draw, refer to accessory page. Use the tables below to see performance trade-offs. *NOTE: Input solar power is 24 Vdc at 60 watts maximum.*

The solar panel(s) must be located in an open area clear of obstructions and shading for the entire day. The gate operator is not supported in northern climates where temperatures reach below -4 degrees F. This is due to cold weather and a reduced number of hours of sunlight during the winter months. Cycle rate may vary from solar chart for areas that reach below 32 degrees F. Solar panels should be cleaned on a regular basis for best performance to ensure proper operation.

**SOLAR USAGE GUIDE**

The CSW24VDC has best in class solar performance due to highly efficient electronics that draw very little power while the gate is not in use (standby).

| Typical System Standby Battery Current Consumption (mA) | System Configuration |
|---|---|
| 2.7 mA | Main control board draw with no remote controls programmed |
| +1 mA | Low band radio receiver active (one or more wireless transmitters learned) |
| +2.4 mA | High band radio active (MyQ device programmed) |
| +11.1 mA | Expansion board |
| +3.8 mA | Per loop detector (up to 3 loop detectors can be plugged into the expansion board) |

This low current draw drastically increases the number of days the operator can remain in standby. To determine your system's performance, reference the above table and determine how many milliamps (mA) your system will draw from the batteries.

*EXAMPLE 1: A system with only a main control board and one or more hand held remote controls programmed will draw 3.7 mA from the batteries while the system is in standby (2.7 mA + 1 mA = 3.7 mA).*

*EXAMPLE 2: A system with only a main control board, one or more hand held remote controls programmed, and 20 mA of external accessories connected to the main control board's accessory power output will draw 23.7 mA from the batteries while the system is in standby (2.7 mA + 1 mA + 20 mA = 23.7 mA).*

*EXAMPLE 3: A system with a main control board, expansion board, two loop detectors, and one or more hand held remote controls programmed will draw 18 mA from the batteries while the system is in standby (2.7 mA + 11.1 mA + 3.8 mA * 2 +1 = 18.6 mA).*

**Operator performance with no sun or loss of AC power**

| BATTERY CURRENT DRAW (mA) | SYSTEM CONFIGURATION | DAYS OF STANDBY | | GATE CYCLES ON BATTERY | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

#### SOLAR PANEL(S)

The location of the panel(s) is critical to the success of the installation. In general, the panel(s) should be mounted using the provided angle bracket facing **due south**. Use a compass to determine direction. The solar panel(s) should be mounted in an area clear of all obstructions and shading from buildings and trees. If the panel(s) is not casting a shadow, the battery is not being charged.

*TIPS:*

- *Tall trees or buildings that do not shade the solar panel(s) in the summer could shade the solar panel(s) during the winter months when the sun sits lower in the sky.*

- *The area around the solar panel(s) should be clear of shadows or obstructions to the sun for a 180 degree arc east to west.*

- *Wire runs should be kept as short as possible. The solar panel(s) can be located up to 100 feet (30.48 m) from the operator using #16 AWG wire in any direction, including elevating it.*

- *DO NOT install solar panel near potential shading or obstructions that will block the panel during any part of the day.*

- *To optimize the system for winter operation the angle can be increased an additional 15 degrees (solar panel(s) sits more vertical).*
