Glossary GATE - A moving barrier such as a swinging, sliding, raising, lowering, or the like, barrier, that is a stand-alone passage barrier or is that portion of a wall or fence system that controls entrance and/or egress by persons or vehicles and completes the perimeter of a defined area. RESIDENTIAL VEHICULAR GATE OPERATOR – CLASS I - A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a home of one-to four single family dwelling, or garage or parking area associated therewith.
Swing Gate Requirements The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate. (ref. UL325 56.8.4.
Swing Gate Protection C Non-contact Sensor Minimizes the potential of the gate closing on vehicular or other traffic that loops cannot sense. See pages 23 and 24 for typical layout locations. Reverse Loop Minimizes the potential of the gate closing when a vehicle is present. Number and placement of loops is dependent on the application. D C D Shadow Loop Provides a hold open command to the operator(s) only if the gate(s) are at the full open position.
SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION Prior to beginning the installation of the swing gate operator, we suggest that you become familiar with the instructions, illustrations, and wiring guide-lines in this manual. This will help insure that your installation is performed in an efficient and professional manner compliant with UL 325 safety and ASTM F2200 construction standards. The proper installation of the vehicular swing gate operator is an extremely important and integral part of the overall access control system.

SECTION 2 - AC POWER TO OPERATOR(S) Before attempting to connect any wiring to the operator, be sure that the circuit breaker in the electrical panel is in the OFF position. Permanent wiring must be installed to the operator as required by local electrical codes. It is recommended that a licensed electrical contractor perform this work.
2.3 Bi-Parting Gates Wiring - Dual Gate Operators Connect the Primary/Secondary operators together with DoorKing’s interconnection cable as shown (Different lengths sold separately P/N 2600-75x). High voltage power and low voltage communications are supplied to the secondary operator by DoorKing’s UL approved cable Blue that is run in a single conduit.
SECTION 3 - ADJUSTMENTS The switch settings and adjustments in this chapter should be made after your installation and wiring to the operator(s) is complete. Whenever any of the programming switches on the circuit board are changed, power must be shut-off, and then turned back on for the new setting to take effect. 3.1 4502 Circuit Board Description and Adjustments Terminal 4 5 See page 17. See page 25.
3.2 DIP-Switch SW 1 Settings The two DIP-switches located on the circuit board are used to program the operator to operate in various modes and to turn on or off various operating features. Whenever a switch setting is changed, power to the operator must be turned OFF and then turned back on for the new setting to take affect. Check and review ALL switch settings prior to applying power to the operator.
3.3 DIP-Switch SW 2 Settings Every time the operator is powered up, the First open command will automatically set the open and close limits of the gate. (See page 21). SW 2 (Bottom 8 Switches) Switch Function OFF Opens Counter-Clockwise using OFF setting. 1 Primary Operator Opening Direction ON Opens Clockwise using ON setting. Secondary Operator Opening Direction OFF Opens Counter-Clockwise using OFF setting. ON Opens Clockwise using ON setting.
3.4 Automatic Open / Close Limit Adjustment The 6050/6100’s open/close limits DO NOT have to be physically adjusted. The gate open and close positions are determined by the physical stop “Flange” on the elbow assembly (See below). The arms MUST already be in the correct closed configuration (See Section 1.7 on page 14). DO NOT cycle the operator until the arms are in the correct configuration.
3.5 Clutch Adjustment This vehicular gate operator is equipped with an inherent adjustable clutch (Type C) that is used as the Primary entrapment protection system. The clutch MUST slip upon sensing an obstruction during the open or close cycle which will cause the gate to reverse direction. For this system to function correctly, the gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions. A good set of roller bearing hinges is essential for proper swing gate operation. 1.
SECTION 4 - ENTRAPMENT AND SAFETY PROTECTION Secondary Entrapment Protection Device: In addition to the inherent reversing sensor system, the Models 6050/6100 has terminal connections for photo sensors-Type B1 secondary entrapment protection device required by UL 325 standards. Entrapment protection devices must be installed to reduce the risk of injury. Install these devices where the risk of entrapment or a hazard exists while the gate is moving. Specific installations will vary. 4.
4.2 Entrapment and Safety Protection Device Locations Typical UL Photo Sensor mounting height and distance away from gate. Opening-Direction Photo Sensors 21” Typical Gate Frame (Closed) 5” or less UL sensor mounted just above top of operator Gate Frame (Closed) Closing-Direction Photo Sensors Wall 27.5” Max.

SECTION 6 - OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury or death: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 2. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children. 3. Always keep people and objects away from gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE. 4. Test the operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or stop or reverse when an object activates the non-contact sensors.
6.2 Shutdown Conditions Under various entrapment conditions the operator will assume either a soft or hard (alarm) shutdown. To determine what type of reset action is required, you will need to understand how the different entrapment conditions affect the gate operator. Soft Shutdown This occurs in various situations where the inherent or secondary entrapment protection devices have been activated.
Resetting a Hard Shutdown When the operator is in a hard shutdown condition (audio alarm activated or audio alarm “chirps” every 5 seconds), the only way to reset the gate operator and return it to normal operation is to activate the alarm reset input (auxiliary terminals 2 and 3). An alarm-reset switch can be mounted external of the gate operator provided that it is installed in the line of sight of the gate and gate operator. • Before resetting a hard shutdown, determine why the shutdown occurred.
FAIL-SAFE Manual Operation The FAIL-SAFE manual operation system is the most reliable and safest method for placing an automated gate in manual operation and is the preferred method of emergency gate operation under worse case conditions by many Fire Chiefs and Building Inspectors and is typically used in CLASS I and CLASS II applications. This system requires no keys, cranks or tools for manual gate operation and is completely automatic.
SECTION 7 - OPTIONAL CONVENIENCE OPEN SYSTEM The optional convenience open system installed in your vehicular gate operator is designed as a convenience enhancement only. It is not designed or intended to provide continuous gate operation during a power outage. Its sole purpose is to provide a method to open the vehicular gate to allow unimpeded traffic flow when the gate and access control system is without power.
7.2 DC System Description Timer needs to Do Not Adjust be adjusted. Do Not Adjust Charging LED 12 V 3 Amp/Hr Red/White – + Batteries Gate will automatically or manually OPEN and stay open during an AC power failure. DIP-Switch 3 setting will determine how operator will return to normal operation once AC power has been restored.
SECTION 8 - MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Inspection and service of this gate operator by a qualified technician should be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. High cycle usage may require more frequent service checks. 8.1 Maintenance When servicing the gate operator, always check any secondary (external) reversing devices (loops, photo eyes, etc.) for proper operation.
8.2 Troubleshooting Have a good VOM meter to check voltages and continuity. A Meg-Ohm meter capable of checking up to 500 meg-ohms of resistance is necessary to properly check the integrity of the ground loops. When a malfunction occurs, isolate the problem to one of three areas: 1) the operator, 2) the loop system, 3) the keying devices. Use caution when checking high voltage areas: terminals 1 through 6, the motor capacitor and the motor. 1. Check the input indicator LEDs.
Symptom Possible Solution(s) Gate opens a short distance, then stops and reverses. • • • • Check that the clutch is adjusted properly and is not slipping. Disconnect the gate from the gate operator and check that the gate swings freely without any binding. Check that SW 1, switch 7 is set correctly. Check the PULSE LED on the circuit board. PULSE 1 should blink as the primary (or single) operator is running. PULSE 2 should blink as the secondary operator is running.
