Gate Open and Close are controlled by Normally Open (NO) momentary switches and Stop is controlled by a

¾ OPEN Input: Dry contact input (normally open) for a guard station open switch. Momentarily shorting the
Open input to COM opens the gate(s).
¾ CLOSE Input: Dry contact input (normally open) for a guard station close switch. Momentarily shorting the
Close input to COM (GND) closes the gate(s).
¾ STOP Input: Dry contact input (normally closed) for a guard station stop switch. Momentarily opening the
Stop input stops the opening gate at its current position. While this input is activated, all other inputs are
disabled and are not functional.
