1. Install all gate accessories such as Photo-Eye’s,
Sensors, Loops and other safety devices.
2. Apply battery power to the 1050 gate operator.
3. Remove the limit switch screw end caps from
the Apollo 816-1K Series actuator. See Figure
8 Apollo 816-1K Series Limit Screw Adjustment.
4. Test the motor direction by pressing CLOSE. If
the gate instead OPENS swap the RED and
BLACK motor leads shown in Figure 7 and re-
test to verify correct operation.
5. Adjust the Open limit by pressing the Open but-
ton on the gate controller until the gate is fully
open. Turn the Retract Limit Screw (see Figure
8 Apollo 816-1K Series Limit Screw Adjustment)
clockwise or counter-clockwise as necessary
until the Motor 1 LED turns GREEN.
6. Adjust the Close limit by pressing the Close but-
ton on the gate controller until the gate is fully
closed. Turn the Extend Limit Screw (see Fig-
ure 8 Apollo 816-1K Series Limit Screw Adjust-
ment) clockwise or counter-clockwise as neces-
sary until the Motor 1 LED turns RED.
7. Press the Open button on the gate controller
until the gate is 50% open.
8. Press FUNCTION -> LEARN ->SWING, then
press LIGHT, AVERAGE OR HEAVY according
to the size of the gate, then press ENTER. The
gate will open partially then stop. The gate will
then run to the closing limit, so that it can
properly sense the close limit trigger. The gate
will then fully open to test the open limit trigger
then fully close at high speed. The gate should
be fully learned by the gate operator at this
point.
9. Replace the Apollo 816-1K Series actuator limit
switch screw end caps.
10. The gate opener is now programmed for basic
usage
Tip: By welding stop tabs on the top and bottom of
the master side, the two gates may now be adjusted
so the slave gate will close against the stop tabs of
the master gate and create enough tension to
prevent gates from moving back and forth.
