Features of the S.T.A.R.T. software and operator code upgrades include:
New dual (DG) menu allows easy integration of dual gate installations (Master/Slave and Sally Port Gates) using
the RS 485 communication capabilities.
A new menu item, Sequenced Gates (
), has been added to the STC Installer Menu. This feature handles
communication between gates in sequence, such as a barrier arm and a slide gate. How to program a sequenced
gate is described in the StrongArm M30 Programming and Operations Manual, available online at
www.hysecurity.com. The information will soon be available in the SlideDriver product manuals.
ModBus:
New communications protocol for variable frequency drive (VFD) SlideDriver
operators.
In the 50VF series Sli
n protocol allows the STC to
constantly monitor the Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) and record events in the STC
history log. The history log is easily accessible using the HySecurity S.T.A.R.T. program
and a PC laptop computer.
The new communication protocol reduces intermittent operator issues caused by site
power quality issues and the STC resets VFD faults or error codes upon receiving a new
command which eliminates unnecessary field calls. It also provides smoother acceleration
and deceleration.
All 50VF2/3 SlideDrivers shipped after January 1, 2012 will have the new ModBus cable and communication
protocol installed. If you need replacement parts for your existing 50VF series operators, be sure to have the
serial number of the operator available when you order parts.
New SlideDriver configuration as of June 1, 2012: If you install a new
50VF2/3 operator, the speed is factory set at 2 foot per second (2 ft/s). To
change the speed, you will need to access the Installer Menu. Refer to Section 3
Smart Touch Basics in the manual.

and are not used. (The operator will not run if you change the
speed setting to 0 or 1.)
NOTE: To enable Emergency Fast Operate (EFO), you also need to set the Emergency Close Mode
( = 1). Refer to Section 3 Setting the Emergency Fast Operate. If you set the speed and receive an ERR6,
check the cable & wiring connections between the VFD and STC.
