Control Board Dipswitch Setting Verification
NOTE: This check must be performed
before operating the gate for the rst
time. Failure to do so may damage the
gate operator.
Before operating the gate lets make sure
the Patriot control board dipswitches are
set correctly for your installation. Locate
the dipswitches on the Patriot control
board.
Factory default dipswitch settings are 2
and 3 on.
ON - Down on right
OFF - Down on left
Identify your installation below and verify the standard dipswitch settings:
PATRIOT I
(PULL TO OPEN) Dipswitches 2, 3 should be in the on position
PATRIOT I
(PUSH TO OPEN) Dipswitches 2, 3, 9 should be in the on position
PATRIOT II
(PULL TO OPEN) Dipswitches 2, 3, 4 should be in the on position
PATRIOT II
(PUSH TO OPEN) Dipswitches 2, 3, 4, 9 should be in the on position
NOTE: PUSH TO OPEN INSTALLATIONS ONLY:
Push to Open installations do not require rewiring of the actuator harnesses. The Patriot control board
dipswitch 9 eliminates the need to do this. Failure to turn dipswitch 9 ON will cause improper gate
operation. Verify your installation type and verify dipswitch settings.
Gate Delay Feature - For Bi-parting Dual Gate Systems with overlapping
gates and/or electric gate locks.
It is necessary to activate the gate delay feature anytime dual gates overlap in the closed position or
have an electric gate lock. To activate this feature simply turn DS2 switch 1 on. The actuator plugged
into Gate 2 will always open 2 seconds after Gate 1 opens and will always close 2 seconds before
Gate 1 closes.
Optional Soft Stop for Retract or Extend Position
The Patriot control board is equipped with a selectable soft stop feature for retract, extend or both
directions, if desired. Understanding how this feature operates is required before turning on any
control switches or possible control board damage may occur.
The soft stop feature reduces the motor voltage for approximately the last 18” of travel. This feature is
primarily used on long light weight gates that tend to ex back and forth (gate slap) when gate stops.
Another common way to reduce the gate slap is to install a stop plate or post for the gate to contact at
travel end.
