Length of operators. Phobos BT is 32.48 inches and Phobos BT NL is 37.12 inches. PHOBOS BT N AND BT NL KITS QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE • Products should be installed by a professional installer and all devices which are part of the UL325 certification must be included. • Automation should be installed on a gate which is moving freely. Any issue with the smooth opening of closing of a gate will not be corrected by adding automation. • All wiring should be done by a qualified electrician.

DISENGAGING THE OPERATOR Disengaging the operator: During the installation it is sometimes necessary to disengage the operator using the provided CLS release key included in kit (D from component list on page 3). Please refer to drawing below. Fig. 1 Connecting cables to the operator: In order to provide flexibility and avoid the use of junction boxes (please check with local electrical requirements if this is allowed) the Phobos BT N and BT NL operators are not delivered with mounted cables.

BRACKETS INSTALLATION (PULL TO OPEN) • Inspect all gate components to insure proper operation. • Gate must swing freely throughout its travel. STEP 1 Position the post mounting bracket (A from component list on page 3) and gate mounting bracket (B from component list on page 3) using the dimensions in the table depending upon the operator used (Phobos BT N or Phobos BT NL) and depending upon the desired opening angle (90 degrees or 110 degrees).
PAGE 6
LIMIT SWITCH SETTING (PULL TO OPEN) Fig. FIG. 55 Fig. FIG.66 Fig. 7 A B • Disengage operator with manual release key (D from component list on page 3). • Locate the limit sensors located under the worm drive cover as shown in above Fig. 5 & 6. • Position the gate in closed position (as shown on top of Fig. 5). • Loosen the screw on the limit sensor at the end of the arm (as shown in Fig. 7), closest to the gate bracket (B from component list on page 3).

BRACKETS INSTALLATION (PUSH TO OPEN) • Inspect all gate components to insure proper operation. • Gate must swing freely throughout its travel. STEP 1 Position the post mounting bracket (not provided by BFT) and gate mounting bracket (B from component list on page 3) using the dimensions in the table depending upon the operator used (Phobos BT N or Phobos BT NL) and depending upon the desired opening angle (90 degrees or 110 degrees). Secure bracket by welding or bolting. Fig. 8 Fig.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS Refer to page 17 for terminal layout IMPORTANT NOTE: For ease of wiring, the green terminal block sections 3-14, 15-20 & 2122 can be detached from the board by pulling them manually away from the base. Ensure that the power is turned off before attaching and detaching the connectors and that the terminal blocks are correctly aligned when reconnecting.
PAGE 10
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS Refer to page 17 for terminal layout CONNECTING THE power: • It is recommended to use a separate line with its own circuit breaker for the gate automation. • Connect the line wire of the 110 volt power source to terminal L of the Libra control board. • Connect the neutral wire of the 110 volt power source to terminal N of the Libra control board. • Connect the ground wire of the 110 volt power source to ground terminal of the Libra control board.
PAGE 11
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS Refer to page 17 for terminal layout • Note: On BFT control boards safety contacts are always Normally Close, multiple safety devices connected to the same contact have to be connected in series. Command contacts are always Normally Open; multiple command devices connected to the same contact have to be connected in parallel. WARNING: All command and safety contacts are dry contacts, giving tension to these contacts will damage the board.
PAGE 12
OPTIONAL BATTERY BACK-UP INSTALLATION • Unplug the main power. • Cut wire going from JP2 connector on the board to 0V connector on the transformer. Strip resulting ends. Cut wire going from JP5 connector to 25V connector on the transformer. Strip resulting ends. • Using a wire nut (not supplied) connect JP2, 0V and an additional wire (not supplied) together. Connect other end of this additional wire on terminal # 3 on the SBS charger board (part of BT Bat battery back-up system).
