  • Page 12: Installation Of Operator

    Installation of Operator The operator base plate and articulated arm are designed either for right-handed or left-handed installation. 1. Begin with your gear motor in the base plate. Hold the base and motor against the column and find the proper set back for your operator (from previous page). Mark the outline of the base plate with the operator in the correct setback position.
  • Page 13 4. Assemble the articulated arm and front coupling as shown below. Left assembly connects the same way as the right only with the straight arm and gate bracket on opposite sides as in the smaller picture below. 5. Fit the straight lever of the articulated arm on the transmission shaft and tighten it using the supplied screw and washer.

  • Page 14: Mounting The Control Board And Box

    Mounting the Control Board and Box Position your control box on the post of the gate or a nearby fence. (1) Remove the rubber covers on the back of the box to reveal the holes. Use these holes to mount the box, and then put the rubber covers over the screw heads to prevent water leakage.
  • Page 15 Positioning Backup Batteries 1) Slide the two batteries below the control board mount. They do not require any additional bracing. Create holes on the side of the box large enough for your watertight connectors, and run your wires in from the side to make room for the batteries.
  • Page 16 For Your Convenience The white terminal strips on the control board are easily removed for wiring. Simply pull straight out on the terminal strip to remove it from the board. It will slide right off. Slide it back on when you are finished with your wiring connec- tions.

  • Page 17: Installation Of Limit Switches And Positive Stops

    Installation of Limit Switches and Positive Stops Although the E-SC 1600 control board comes equipped with a cycle time learning function, physical stopping mechanisms must still be used. This can be done with limit switches (not included), positive stops (not included) or both. These must be installed before learning. If using positive stops you must be on operating parameter: Positive stops Examples of stops...

  • Page 19: Temporary Safety Jumpers

    Temporary Safety Jumpers For the highest level of safety, the Estate Swing systems are set up with Normally Closed safety terminals. This means that in order for the gate opener to move these terminals must be closed either through a safety device (recommended) or with jumpers. Temporary safety jumpers are provided in the control box hardware bag for jumping these terminals to common (COM) during the set-up process.

  • Page 25: Operating Parameters Chart

    Operating Parameters Chart Minimum Force This parameter adjusts the sensitivity of the Medium-low Force electronic clutch system. The electronic clutch FORCE system controls the anti-crushing auto-reverse feature when a gate in motion makes contact Medium-high Force with an obstacle. High Force This parameter is for Dual gate opener sys- 1.5 Second Offset tems ONLY.
  • Page 26 This parameter determines when the gate will 20% of total arch SOFT begin to slow down near the end of opening START/ and closing cycle. 10% of total arch STOP This parameter determines how fast the gate SOFT will move during the soft start/stop. If using SPEED positive stops this parameter must be on 0.
  • Page 27 Programming Gate Run Times In this stage, your control board will memorize where your limits are (identified by limit switches, positive stops or both) in both opening and closing phases. Also if the auto-close fea- ture is activated it will learn the user specified pause time. FOR SAFETY PURPOSES—your opener will not run until this step is completed 1) Release the operator gears using the manual release process.
  • Page 28 5. When the closing stop point or limit switch is reached, the motor pauses for approximately 2 seconds, and then restarts with a total opening maneuver to the opening stop point or limit switch. 6. When the full open stop or limit switch is reached the gate(s) will stop. 7.

(With exception of ALIM, power supply light, which is located below the power terminals in the upper left corner.) The LED lights are a quick way of verifying necessary connections are made.

  • Page 30: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting If the gate opener will not move. Be sure you have gone through programming. Without programming no power is ever sent to the operator arms. Check wiring connections. Check to be sure jumpers are in place between STOP, FSW OP, FSW CL to COM on terminal block CN4.
  • Page 31 If fuse the F2 fuse blows or continues to blow. Check all wiring to both the backup batteries and to all accessories run off of the 24+,- terminals on terminal block CN1. Check for the following: · The batteries are run in series not parallel. If they are run in parallel the batteries will be- come overcharged and be destroyed, which will then create a short and continually blow the F2 fuse.
  • Page 32 If you call in for technical support or warranty support: before any control board or motor will be permitted to be sent in for testing or warranty you will be required to e-mail digital photos to the technician. This is done in your best interest to save unnecessary shipping expenses and time lost. Many times we can come up with solutions to issues by seeing pictures that relay information that is im- possible to relay through a phone conversation.
