m TRANSMITTER DOES NOT WORK
Check the battery inside of the transmitter and/or try another transmitter.
Make sure that the DIP switches
inside of the transmitter are set exactly like the DIP switches inside of the receiver.
Check the open push buttons or open
switches if any are used. A stuck push button or any other stuck opening device connected to terminals 4 and 5 will cause
the transmitter to malfunction.
Disconnect opening devices one at a time if necessary to determine which opening
devices if any are stuck.
Look for stuck transmitters. A stuck transmitter may cause other transmitters to malfunction.
Make sure there is power (10 to 16 VDC) to the receiver on terminals 6 and 7 and make sure that the circuit breaker
button is pressed in.
If a click is heard while the transmitter is being pressed and there is no response from the operator,
check all receiver connections. (See page 14.)
If there is still no response, see GATE WILL NOT OPEN OR CLOSE on
this page.

m GATE TRAVELS TOO FAR OR NOT FAR ENOUGH
Adjust the gate sensitivity (see page 17). If the gate sensitivity adjustment is too sensitive, the gate will stop in
mid-travel.
It may be necessary to lubricate any mechanical parts on the gate including wheels and rollers and clean the
track of any debris.
Check the stop push buttons or stop key switches, if any are used. A faulty stop push button or any
other faulty stopping device connected to terminals 8 and 9 may cause the gate to stop in mid-travel.
Disconnect
stopping devices one at a time if necessary to determine which one if any is at fault.
Adjust the limits of travel (see page
11). This adjustment may change slightly as the chain stretches due to normal wear and it may change dramatically if the
chain has been retightened or the limit plate is accidentally left unengaged with the limit nuts.
If a limit nut has traveled
past a limit switch, check the limit switch and all limit switch connections. (See pages 22, 23 and 24.)

m GATE BEGINS TO OPEN OR CLOSE, THEN REVERSES
A typical reason for this symptom is a stuck transmitter.
Change the DIP switches in the receiver and change the
DIP switches in the transmitter to match the receiver. If this solves the problem, there may be a stuck transmitter
somewhere. Another common reason for this symptom is a faulty open push button or key switch.
Disconnect opening
devices one at a time if necessary to determine which opening device if any is stuck.

m GATE WILL NOT OPEN OR CLOSE
Test the operator to find out whether the open input devices are functioning by following these steps.
If you are
using a remote control to open your gate, try another remote control or try using a push button if there is one installed.
If
you are using a push button try using another push button or a remote control.
If there is no push button installed you
may operate your gate by connecting a jumper wire to terminal 4 and touching it to terminal 5.
If the remote controls are
not working , see TRANSMITTER DOES NOT WORK on this page.
Check the manual release key switch to make sure
it is in the operate (vertical) position.
Check the open push buttons or open key switches if any are used. A stuck push
button or any other opening device connected to terminals 4 and 5 will cause other open input devices to malfunction.
Disconnect opening devices one at a time if necessary to determine which opening device if any is stuck.
Check the
circuit breaker button. If the circuit breaker is tripped, press it back in.
Make sure there is power (10 to 16 VDC) on
terminals 9 and 10.

m THE GATE WILL NOT STOP WHEN IT MEETS AN OBSTRUCTION
Adjust the gate sensitivity (see page 17). It needs to be adjusted for more sensitivity. This is done by turning the
gate sensitivity adjustment counter-clockwise for more sensitivity.
