Programming Encoder and Parameters

The OAL-100 is an electromechanical operator designed for automatic swing doors, suitable for both interior and exterior applications. It is installed in a surface-mount header, which must be mounted on an interior building surface. For double swing door installations, two OAL-100 operators are installed within a single header.

Function Description:

The primary function of the OAL-100 is to open and close swing doors automatically. It supports both "push arm" and "pull arm" applications, allowing for flexible installation depending on the door's swing direction relative to the operator. The system includes a control board that manages the door's operation, motor, and various sensors. It features different operating modes, including a basic mode, universal washroom mode, and access control mode, catering to diverse functional requirements. The operator can be programmed to adjust various parameters such as opening and closing speeds, holding time, latch speed, and overload sensitivity.

Important Technical Specifications:

Power Supply: 115+/- 5VAC-60 HZ 0.4 AMPS
Control Board Power Supply: 16VDC
Maximum Door Weight: 250 pounds (113.398 kg) at 48" door width (based on prevailing conditions).
Installation Height: Minimum 8 feet above ground if there are exposed moving parts.
Motor and Gearbox: OAL-100 motor and gearbox (standard) or OAL-100 motor and HD gearbox (heavy-duty applications).
Control Board: OAL-100 control board and transformer.
Arm Kits: Push arm kit (clear) and Pull arm kit (clear) are available.
Sensors: OAL-100 sensor set.
Torque Ranges (Fastener Size to ft-lb):
- M5-#10: 3.7
- M6-1/4: 7
- M8-5/16: 17
- M10-3/8: 34
- M12-1/2: 58

Usage Features:

Installation Flexibility: Supports both push and pull arm configurations. Push arm application requires the unit bottom to be flush with the bottom of the frame, while pull arm application requires the unit bottom to be 2 inches above the top of the door frame.
Programming Modes:
- Basic Programming: Allows setting fundamental parameters like overload, act delay, backcheck speed, holding time, opening speed, closing speed, latch speed, hold open, power assist, and reactivate.
- Universal Washroom Mode: Designed for washroom applications, with specific parameters for latch time (changed from 2 to 0) and control mode (changed from 1 to 2). The display indicates "Door Closed [Unoccupied]".
- Access Control Mode: Integrates with access control systems. Requires control mode to be changed from 1 to 3. The display indicates "Door Closed [Access Denied]".
- Advanced Settings: Provides access to a wider range of parameters for specific applications such as access control, universal washroom, motor reverse on HD operators, or doors exceeding 10 feet.
Learning Cycle: The operator performs a learning cycle to adapt to the door's movement and environment. During this cycle, it's crucial to ensure the door's path is clear of obstructions.
Encoder and Parameters (V2.3 beta-HD only): Includes features like ACT DLY (delay between electric strike and door operator), Pre-load time (time the door operator reverses before opening to release pressure on strike), and Preload speed (speed/force for releasing pressure on strike).
Hold Open Functionality: Ratcheting mode that holds the door open on a momentary trigger to ACT 1 terminal and releases on another momentary trigger.
Power Assist: Option to activate the door when pushed manually.
Reactive Function: Option for the door to reactivate while in the closing cycle.
Strike Time and Speed: Separated opening time and speed for moving the door without obstruction, often used together.
Ramp Time: Adjusts the "kick out" of the latch, with lower values resulting in a stronger kick.
Reverse Open: Option to reverse read switches.
F SEC/F SAF: Changes the strike from fail-safe to fail-secure.
PWR CLS Time and Speed (HD mode only): Controls the length and force of power closing.

Maintenance Features:

Troubleshooting Guide: The manual provides a comprehensive troubleshooting section for common issues such as the door not opening, display not indicating door status, door stopping halfway, door not closing, electric strike not releasing, and unresponsive touch buttons.
Component Replacement: Detailed diagrams and part numbers are provided for easy identification and replacement of components like the motor, gearbox, control board, arms, and sensors.
Manual Storage: The manual emphasizes the importance of keeping the document in a secure and accessible place for reference, especially if the door system is transferred to another facility.
Online Resources: Manuals are available for review, download, and printing on the omegaautomatics.com website. Sample installation videos are also available on YouTube.
Safety Warnings: Highlights critical safety information, including warnings about electrical shock, crushing hazards, and the necessity of qualified personnel for electrical work and adjustments. Metallic doors must be grounded per national and local codes.
