I installed a stop button and wired it to pin 16 as shown on the drawing. When I push It and St displays, how do
I
get the door to run again?
A1-15
To recover from a stop signal, you may actuate the door with any of the standard inputs -partial open with delay, full
open with delay, or latch - and the door will continue opening as if nothing had happened. You may also momentarily depress
the DOWN button (service aid) to continue opening. Finally, actuating the "close" input (SW-C, pin 14 of CN2) or turning the
toggle switch circuit off and back on again will continue the close cycle.

I
want to add an emergency stop switch. How can 1 do this?
A1-16
It
depends on the switch type. All stop switches should have n
orm
closed
(NC) contacts. If you have a momentary
switch, wire it between pins 15 and 16 of CN2. This is the input marked KEYSW as described above. If you have a "mushroom"
palm switch or other switch that has maintained contacts, Horton recommends wiring it into the toggle circuit at pins 8 and 9 of
CN2. The door will stop when the switch contact is broken, and will remain disabled until the contact is restored.

My customer wants a three-button (open/close/stop) garage door type control box. Is this possible?
A1-17
This feature is built in as well. Find the 3t (3-button) station option and turn it
ON.
Wire the pushbuttons as follows: open
to pin 2 of CN2; close to pin 14; and stop to pin 16. The other side of all switches goes to common. Note: The 'stop' button must
be
normally closed
-
this is standard in three-button stations.

I installed a door with a three-button station, but all I get Is a time delay following opening, then the door starts
closing again.
A1-18
You forgot to turn on the 3t option.

How do the actuate Inputs work on the C2150 with Version 3 software?
A1-19
The actuator system is very versatile and will meet the requirements for the vast majority of field installations. Basically,
three actuate lines are available: latch, momentary full open with time delay dl, and momentary partial open with time delay d2.
A full open input takes priority over a partial open input, and a latch input takes top priority. If the door has been opened to the
partial open position and a full open input comes along, the door moves immediately to the full open position, executes delay
d1, and closes. If the door is in the partial open position and a latch input arrives, the door moves immediately to the full open
position and latches open - code LA will display. There are also optional input lines for close and stop which are discussed
more fully above.
01-20
I
need two delay times, one for full open and one for partial. Is this possible without extra equipment?
A1-20
No problem. Time delay d1 is used for full open, and d2 for partial open. Either maybe set independently from 1-199
seconds.
01-21
When does the delay start?
A1-21
When the door reaches the partial- or full-open position and all the actuators have dropped out.

How is a safety beam trip (or reverser signal) handled in Version 3 software?
A1-22
The safety beam (or reverser) moves the door back to the
l
ast position used
,
either partial or full open, then executes
ti
me delay d3 and attempts to re-close the door.

I have a door with a very long stroke, and would like a little more speed during opening. I already have the OS
parameter maxed out at 15.
A1-23
Find the tC (turboCharge) option and turn it on. This selects an even higher speed bank for these installations.
01-24
I have a very small door, and even an open speed of '0' seems too fast. Can I do anything about this?
A1-24
Yes, find the SL (SLow speed) parameter and turn it on. This shifts the open speed range down to "low gear" for these
i
nstallations. Note that you'll probably have to go back and
i
ncrease
the open speed setting after enabling SL - these speeds
are quite slow. Also note that SL takes priority over tC.
01-25
I'm satisfied with the speeds I've selected, but the door seems to "takeoff" too abruptly (bumps anti-rise and/
or jumps belt cogs).
A1-25
After insuring that belt tension is properly set, try locating the rA (reduced Acceleration) parameter and turning it on.
This cuts the start-up acceleration in half and is better suited to some installations.
01-26
Is there anything else 1 can do to Insure maximum operator and door life?
A1-26
To minimize wear and tear on both control and operator, Horton suggests turning on the br (brake on recycles) option
i
n Version 3 industrial software. Although it defaults to
OFF,
turning it
ON means that when a recycle is requested, the control
actually brakes the door before recycling open. For installations where a slight extra delay can be tolerated before the door
recycles open, turning on br prolongs belt and door life and is the preferred setting.
01-27
I have safety nosings on this Installation, and every time the nosings compress together as the door closes,
they generate a false obstruction signal.
A1-27
Find the Sn (Safety nosings) parameter and turn it on. This will disable the safety beam/nosing input when the control
switches to close cushion and will prevent this.

How do I run the encoder test?
A2-1
To run the test, press
and hold
the DOWN button while momentarily pressing RESET or powering up the control. The
display will show Et (Encoder test) briefly, then will switch to a pair of short lines. Release the DOWN button. As you push the
