TEST UNIT
7. Begin tesng by turning the sensivity dial clockwise to seng 8.5.
8. Using the Yelp Siren CD provided, or download the MP3 yelp o our website www.sosgate.com
onto your mobile device, play it at the loudest volume seng. Hold your device close to the mi-
crophone, the PWR/Sound light should come on solid, and the output light should come on as the
gate opens within 3 seconds.
9. Test the unit now with a live siren. You want to have the sensivity seng as low as possible,
but sll able to open the gate with a live siren. The main reason for the SOS not triggering the
gate open is, that they are using a dierent siren sound than “YELP” or they are only leaving their
siren on for 1-2 seconds.
10. Have the emergency responder sound their “YELP” siren. If the gate does not open within 3
seconds, verify that the PWR/Sound light is coming on solid. If PWR/Sound light is solid and the
gate sll does not open turn up the sensivity. The output light must come on before an open
trigger is sent to the gate operator.
Note: Every me the siren is interrupted or changed the digital processor begins the
process over again, this internal reset can take several seconds.
