6.6 - Learning and programming
These steps begin the basic “Learning” programming of the gate opener unit.
Most all of the features and programming are pre-set and already set up for
most standard installations. The installer most often will only be required to
plug the unit into electrical power, connect the chain to the sprocket assembly
and by setting the limits on the gate movement, and then “learning” the unit. In
most cases this is the extent of the basic programming procedure. If the unit
is not in LEARNING MODE see section 6.9 to place the unit into this mode.
Apollo has taken great care to simplify the installation, operation and safety
of this device and to ensure longevity and reliability of the unit over time. The
learning procedure consists of the following steps.
