TO

AN

ACTIVATING

SIGNAL

.

S

OLUTION

:

You should have at least one operator wired to

terminals APM1 and CHM1.

Verify that the LEDs FSWOP, FSWCL, and the STOP are

illuminated. If they are not illuminated, be sure that you

have closed circuits in the stop and reversing inputs.

Verify that your activating device works properly. OPEN

A should illuminate when you signal the gate to open. If

OPEN A does not illuminate when you signal the gate,

then the problem may be in your activating device. Short

across terminals OPEN A and COM. If the short causes

the gate to open, then the problem is in the activating
device. Repair or replace the device

Make sure that the motor is running in the right

direction, and make sure the Manual Release

S

OLUTION

:

Make sure you have selected the desired operating

mode.

Verify that the reversing devices are working properly.

FSWOP and FSWCL should be illuminated except when a

reversing device is triggered. If either does not

illuminate, then one of your reversing devices is

preventing the gate from responding to your signal.

Check your reversing devices.

If no reversing devices are installed, make sure a circuit

is installed between appropriate terminals.

OPEN

(

S

OLUTION

:

Check the operator's open/close time selection. You

should set a time that is just longer than the rated

speed of your model of operator. For example, because

the 415 CBAC has a rated opening time of 13 sec, you

should set the time at 20 or 25 seconds.

Check to see that there are no obstructions in the path

of the gate or that the hinges are not binding.

.

S

OLUTION

:

Make sure the Manual Release Mechanism has fully

engaged the worm screw operation of the operator.

Make sure that a flexible gate leaf is not the problem. If

the gate leaf flexes, then stiffen the gate or use a slower

operator.

WARNING! Before you do any work on the control panel,

be sure to turn off the main power.

NOTE: Any control panel specific information in the following applies to the 455 D control panel only.
