Introducing SwingSmart DC
Thank you for purchasing our premium SwingSmart DC™ 20 swing gate operator. At HySecurity® Gate, Inc.,
we pride ourselves on quality and a number of unparalleled user benefits:
Robust - An especially strong twin channel steel chassis and adjustable taper clutch greatly improves the ability
for SwingSmart to resist damage from vehicle hits on the gate. The components on the Smart DC Controller
are protected by opto-isolators which shield them from power surges and lightning strikes.
Power - A variable speed control board supplies a powerful, continuous 24V DC motor which drives a 600:1
gearbox providing variable speeds. The electronics, motor and gear box are rated to operate in very broad
temperatures that range from -13°F to 158°F (-25°C to 70°C). SwingSmart DC is rated for gates up to 20 feet
long and 1,300 pounds.
Finesse - A variable rate of gate acceleration and deceleration, dependent upon gate weight and length, assures
very smooth handling.
Adaptable - The design incorporates left and right gate arms to assure aesthetic functionality. An articulating
arm is an available option which also provides adaptability to a variety of site situations.
UPS backup and Solar ready - Two 12V, 8 amp hour (Ah) batteries will provide a fully functional gate operator
(up to 300 gate cycles) when AC power is unavailable. Four user-selectable UPS modes are available. 12VDC
and 24VDC are available to power access controls. The unit’s design also incorporates space for optional 50Ah
batteries to support solar applications or usage during extended power outages.

Automatic adjustment and synchronization of bi-parting gates - The Smart DC Controller automatically
adjusts the gate speed to synchronize the left and right gates so that they reach the open and close positions at
the same time. Independent leaf delay adjustment for bi-parting gates is selectable in ½ second increments.
Menus and User relays - The Smart DC Controller has 48 menu items to allow installer configuration of gate
function and two user relays, which can be configured for 22 different functions.
Independent adjustment for open and close gate speeds - An easy-to-use menu on the Smart DC Controller
allows the installer to vary the open and close speed settings in a range between 10 and 15 seconds.
Intelligent Inherent Entrapment Sensor (IES) - Any impediment to gate travel is sensed by the system, stopping
gate movement per UL 325 Safety Standards. The intelligent system monitors gate power then adapts the IES
to trip at an adjustable threshold above normal power.
Improved Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) - A 32-character LCD provides increased readability for programming
and troubleshooting.
USB communications port - A direct connect provides accessibility to download system diagnostics and upload
system configurations using the Smart Touch Analyze and Retrieve Tool (S.T.A.R.T.) software.
S.T.A.R.T. software and diagnostics - With S.T.A.R.T. software loaded on a laptop computer, you have an
invaluable management tool for all HySecurity operators. To download this free software, visit the HySecurity
