10. Photo-eye being
used for vehicular
protection will not
reverse the gate
when closing or
hold the gate open.
*NOTE: the photo eye
being used CANNOT
have a 10k resistor
installed for this
application.
10K resistor must be
removed for vehicular
protection use.
1. The rst thing to check is the accessory wiring. The accessory
needs power (+12 vdc) wired to J2 terminal 5 on the Ranger control
board. It also needs ground, which can be wired to the battery or
to J2 terminal 2 or 7 on the Ranger control board. The other two
connections are the “N/O (Normally Open) and Common ground”.
The common ground can be connected to the battery or to J2
terminal 2 or 7 on the Ranger control board. The N/O connection
must be connected to J2 terminal 11 “Safety Loop / Reversing
Edge Input”. If the accessory is connected as described above it
should reverse a closing gate or hold a gate open if the accessory is
activated.
2. To determine if the accessory is working correctly and that the
Ranger control board is receiving the signal, locate the “LED
Indicator” push button and the “Safety Loop / Reversing Edge Input”
LED (located below the J2 terminal plug of the Ranger control
board).
3. Press and hold the “LED indicator” push button and observe the
“Safety Loop / Reversing Edge Input” LED. Activate the accessory in
question (if photo-eye break the beam.) If the accessory is working
properly, the LED light should come on when the device is activated.
If the device does not turn on the LED light, check the wiring on the
J2 connector and check J2 connector connection to the Ranger
control board. If wiring is good, then the accessory is not operating
correctly. Repair.
4. If the “Safety Loop / Reversing Edge Input” LED comes on and the
gate does not reverse direction when closing, call the factory for
other possible causes and return information.
11. Pressing the
“RESET” button
only, causes the
gate to operate
1. This problem is probably due to a bad receiver. First locate the “LED
Indicator” push button on the Ranger control board. Then locate the
“Push Button Input” LED located below the J2 terminal plug of the
Ranger control board.
2. Press the “LED Indicator” button and observe the “Push Button
Input” LED. If the LED comes on then the receiver relay is stuck
closed and needs to be repaired or replaced.
3. If the “Push Button Input” LED does not come on, call the factory for
further troubleshooting and return information.
