1. My single gate will
not operate:
(Patriot I)
1. Remove control box cover locate the “Open/Close Command” push
button and press it to operate the gate.
2. Press the “Reset” push button located above the “Open/Close
Command” button, then push the “Open/Close command” push
button to operate the gate.
3. When pressing the “Open/Close Command” push button, listen for a
clicking sound, if click is heard then verify:
The 15-amp fuse located on the control board is good if not replace
it using the spare located on the control board. Also check the
dipswitches (3 and 4) for correct switch settings based on where
the actuator is connected to the control board (Gate 1 or Gate 2).
If switches are correct and the fuse is good and clicking sound is
heard, then the battery needs to be load tested to determine its
condition. Charge or replace the battery depending on results.
4. Press and hold the “LED Indicator” push button and observe all of
the red LED’s
If the two limit LED’s located below the actuator plug connector
are both on the operator will not operate. You must adjust the limit
switch
Example- if both limit LED’s are on when the gate is in the closed
position (and actuator is connected to the gate) the problem is with
the retract limit switch. Adjust the retract limit until the LED goes
off and continue to adjust until the gate is at the desired stopping
position. Both LED’s should never be on simultaneously.
a. If any of the LED’s in the lower left corner of the control board are
on then this must be corrected. These lights correspond to the J2
accessory inputs located at the bottom center of the control board.
b. Identify the light that comes ON and then the J2 pin number it is
associated with.
c. Locate the accessory, which is connected to that J2 pin number
d. Disconnect the accessory wire from that J2 pin and verify gate
operation.
5. Disconnect the green J2 connector. Once disconnected, press the
“Open/Close Command” button.
If gate operates go to step 4 b above.
6. Verify that DS1 switch 8 is off.
7. Call the factory for more information if the above steps have not
worked.
