CAUTIONS AND NOTES
This instruction manual is intended to aid the installer in the overall process
of correct installation at the desired location. Periodically, the manual will
illustrate “warnings, cautions and notes” which are items the installer should
carefully read to prevent damage to the gate, gate system or personal injury
to yourself or others.
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT
Anyone who installs, assists with installation or otherwise facilitates the
installation in any manner should thoroughly read and understand this manual
in its entirety before any attempt is made to actually begin the installation
process.
ETL DEFINITIONS COMPLIANT TO UL325
• Gate - A moving barrier such as a swinging, sliding, raising, lowering,
rolling, or like barrier that is a stand alone passage barrier or is that portion
of a wall or fence system that controls entrance and/or egress by persons
or vehicles and completes the perimeter of a dened area.
• Residential Vehicular Gate Operator - Class I - A vehicular gate operator (or
system) intended for use in a home of one to four single family dwellings,
or a garage or parking area associated therewith.
• Commercial / General Access Vehicular Gate Operator - Class II - A
vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a commercial
location or building such as a multi-family housing unit (ve or more single
family units), hotel, garages, retail store, or other buildings servicing the
general public.
• Commercial / General Access Vehicular Gate Operator - Class III - A
vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in an industrial
location, loading dock area, or other location not intended to service the
general public.
• Commercial / General Access Vehicular Gate Operator - Class IV - A
vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a guarded industrial
location or buildings such as airport security area or other restricted access
locations not servicing the general public, in which unauthorized access is
prevented via supervision by security personnel.
1.1 - Main control board
The 1050 main control board is housed in a protective plastic enclosure
that includes a 2 line LCD and with 5 dedicated buttons and 3 buttons for
navigation of the setup, programming, and information menus. Connectors
for power, inputs, and output peripherals are arranged around the edges
of the board and clearly labeled. A plug in connector is provided for direct
installation of a Nice brand receiver which can be controlled by up to 1000
transmitters. A reset RJ-11 jack offers a connection to an optional Oview
programmer with Bluetooth and GSM which can be used to control the
gate with a telephone, smartphone, or PC. Connectors for other Nice brand
plug in accessories include 2 wire Bluebus, self-monitored photocells for
entrapment protection. Dry contact inputs are provided for loop, probe, and
photoelectric detectors, as well as edge sensors, guard station, and re
department control of gate opening and closing. Voltage outputs (+12VDC
and +24VDC) are also made available to power safety and entrapment
prevention devices, and a magnetic lock if required. On board charge control
circuitry delivers reliable power to the battery.
The 1050 main control board accepts DC input voltage ranging from 10VDC
to 35VDC. A 2 line LCD with dedicated buttons allows the installer to quickly
program the 1050 when changes to its factory default settings need to be
made. A real time clock/calendar enables programming for scheduled weekly
or daily events like opening, closing, or locking the gate. Gate opening and
closing speed, acceleration, soft start settings, and reversing speed may be
set to factory default settings, or individually programmed per customized
gate installation requirements. Built in current sensing enables inherent gate
force monitoring and limiting for safety and an on board alarm indicates when
two sequential obstructions have been sensed in either direction. The “Learn”
function helps the gate installer congure the Apollo MB1K gate operator
semi-automatically for optimum settings of gate opening and closing speeds,
with simple programmable adjustments to force and speed settings that may
be made with front panel programming.
1.2 - 1050 control board specics
• Inputs for batteries.
• Low power consumption in stand-by mode.
• Socket for plug-in Nice receivers.
• Board compatible with Nice Opera System (facilitates programming and
diagnostic’s away from the site of installation).
• Easy programming with LCD display and dedicated buttons.
• Digital programming for auto-close, force, speed, opening delay.
• On board buttons for operating the gate (Open, Close, Stop).
• Built-in voltmeter to check input voltage, battery voltage, motors’ current.
• Temperature sensor to optimize charging battery and system performance.
• Programmable service alarm.
• 2 Programmable timers (from 1 sec to 9 hours).
• Inputs for guard station, additional third party receivers, loop detectors,
FIRE and UL/Edge signals.
• 2 programmable inputs (open, close, step, mid-position, hold to open, hold
to close, activating timer).
• Surge suppression on every peripheral input (digital and analog).
• Ports for self-powered Nice plug-in peripherals. (BlueBus).
• Available with Nice T524V (24VDC Motor) swing gate operators (Max gate
length: 14’, 400bs per leaf)
• AC powered with integrated battery back up
The new Apollo MB1K Control Box houses the 1050 gate controller in a
rugged, reliable chassis. The 1050 controller is easily programmed and
provides numerous inputs and outputs to satisfy the functional and safety
requirements of the most demanding single leaf and dual leaf swing gate
installations.
An industrial design ensures that the Apollo MB1K gate controller
complements any gate installation and architecture while providing the safety
features that meet or exceed UL325 and UL991 specications. The Apollo
MB1K gate controller may be combined the Nice T524V swing gate actuators
to create the perfect arrangement of intelligent controller with powerful
motors to complete the gate installation.
This manual provides documentation that covers the layout, construction,
mechanical, electrical installation, and programming of the gate controller
for a typical installation. Please consult your Apollo distributor for more
information regarding installations or questions not specically covered in this
manual.
2.1 - ASTM F2200
Gates shall be constructed in accordance with the provisions given for the
appropriate gate type listed, refer to ASTM F2200 for additional gate types.
Protrusions shall not be permitted on any gate, refer to ASTM F2200 for
exceptions if any.
Any non-automated gate that is to be automated in any manner should be
upgraded to conform to the provisions contained within the provisions of this
document and ASTM F2200 as applicable.
