SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION Prior to beginning the installation of the slide 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. The proper installation of the vehicular slide gate operator is an extremely important and integral part of the overall access control system.
1.2 Mounting Options The 9210, 9220 and 9230 vehicular gate operators are designed to be mounted on the optional mounting stand (p/n 9200-135) or directly to a concrete pad. The mounting stand option is recommended if the gate length exceeds 30 feet since this mounting method will allow a “chain rest” to be mounted on the gate. Pad mounting is typically used with gates that are less than 30 feet in length. Requires use of the pad mounting plate that is included with the operator.
1.3 Chain Guide Adjustment After determining which mounting method is to be used (pad or mounting stand), adjust the chain guides according to the mounting method being used. To gain access to the inside of the operator, remove three hex-head nuts from the left side of the control panel housing. Pull the housing out and away. OPEN For pad mounted operators, remove the UPPER hole knockouts from each side of the operator. Adjust the chain guides as shown.
1.4 Pad Mount Installation 1. Construct a form for the mounting pad according to the specifications shown below. Be sure to level the top edge of the form and that the top of the form is a minimum of four (4) inches above ground level. We suggest that you contact the local building department to determine the required depth of the pad since soil conditions and code requirements vary from city to city. 2. Set conduits, reinforcing bars and/or wire mesh if required.
bolts in the concrete. Sleeve anchors should be used to secure the operator to the pad. This allows greater flexibility in positioning the operator on the pad. 4. Allow the pad to cure for 48 hours before removing the forms or mounting the operator. 5. Once the pad has cured, place the operator / mounting plate on the pad in the proper position; 4-inches from the front and sides of the pad and 1-inch from the rear of the pad. The operator mounting plate must be parallel to the gate.
1.5 Mounting Stand Installation 1. Construct a form for the mounting pad according to the specifications shown below. Be sure to level the top edge of the form and that the top of the form is a minimum of four (4) inches above ground level. We suggest that you contact the local building department to determine the required depth of the pad since soil conditions and code requirements vary from city to city. 2. Set conduits, reinforcing bars and/or wire mesh if required.
3. Mix the concrete according to the manufacturers instructions. Pour the mixture into the form and tamp. Level and finish the surface after pouring is complete. Do not set anchor bolts in the concrete. Sleeve anchors should be used to secure the operator to the pad. This allows greater flexibility in positioning the operator on the pad. 4. Allow the pad to cure for 48 hours before removing the forms or mounting the operator. 5.
1.6 Chain Installation 1. Secure the chain brackets to each end of the gate so that the brackets will be level with the chain where it exits the operator. Brackets should be attached to the inside of the frame so that the chain bolts, when attached, do not protrude beyond the frame of the gate. 2. Route the chain through the gate operator. 3. Attach the chain to the chain bolts using the master links supplied, and then attach the chain bolts to the chain brackets using the hardware supplied.

1.7 Warning Sign Installation This DoorKing slide gate operator is shipped with two warning signs. The purpose of the warning signs is to alert uniformed persons, and to remind persons familiar with the system, that a potential hazard may exist so that appropriate action can be taken to avoid the hazard or to reduce exposure to the hazard. 1. Permanently install the supplied warning signs in locations so that the signs are visible by persons on both sides of the gate. 2.
SECTION 2 – WIRING 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 such work be performed by a licensed electrical contractor.
2.1 High Voltage Connections Use the table below to determine high voltage wire size requirements. The distance shown in the chart is measured in feet from the operator to the power source. If power wiring is greater than the maximum distance shown, it is recommended that a service feeder be installed. When large gauge wire is used, a separate junction box must be installed for the operator connection. The wire table is based on stranded copper wire.
2.2 Control Wiring Controls must be far enough from the gate so that the user is prevented from coming in contact with the gate while operating the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls should have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. Fence C Roadway D A C B Open contact sensor placed on fence. D 4404-010 Circuit Board 1 Receiver 3 A Open direction non-contact sensor. B Close direction non-contact sensor. 1 C Open direction contact sensor.
2.3 Loop Detector Wiring Loops and loop detectors must be installed with this gate operator to prevent the gate from accidentally closing on vehicles that may be in the path of the gate. Π Loops and loop detectors MUST be installed with this gate operator to help prevent the gate from accidentally closing on vehicular traffic. Π Loop detector wiring is shown for DoorKing plug-in loop detectors only.
2.4 Auxiliary Device Wiring 1 The auxiliary stop switch will stop a moving gate when activated or will prevent the gate operator from starting when activat ed. Note that this input is normally open and that a switch closure is required to activate the stop function . Because of this, the auxiliary stop shown must NEVER be used as a safety interlock device. 2 Jumper is placed across terminals 7 and 8 ONLY WHEN THE AUXILIARY STOP INPUT IS USED.
2.5 Primary – Secondary (Bi-Parting) Gate Wiring The interface wiring between the two operators requires seven (4) wires (18 AWG minimum) for control and secondary entrapment protection device connection. Each operator must be connected to its own power source as described in section 2.1. D E A B C D E 1 Connect the Primary / Secondary interconnection wiring as shown. Wire colors are based on DoorKing interconnection cable (P/N 2600-75x).

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 Circuit Board Adjustments Set the DIP-switches on the circuit board to the desired setting. See switch-setting charts in section 3.2.
3.2 Switch 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. CAUTION: Switches on the circuit board are numbered right to left, not left to right.
3.2.1 SW 1 (Right Switch) Description and Function Switch 1: Set so that the operator cycles open upon initial power up and open command. If the operator cycles close, turn power off and change the setting on this switch. Switch 2: Turns the auto close timer on or off. Set from 1 to 23 seconds. Loops and loop detectors, photoelectric cells, or other like devices must be installed when the auto close timer is used to prevent the gate from closing on vehicular traffic.
3.3 Limit Adjustment 3.3.1 Limit Adjustment for 9210 Operator 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Turn power off. Push the lock plate handle down to adjust the Open and Close limit nuts. After adjusting the limit-nuts, be sure that the lock-plate is engaged in the slots on the limit-nuts to prevent them from slipping. Turn power on and activate the gate operator. Re-adjust the limit-nuts as necessary for full-open and full-close gate travel.
3.3.2 Limit Adjustment for 9220, 9230 Operators The 9220 and 9230 operators utilize a pair of switches at the open and close positions. The first switch is the slow-down switch and the second switch is the limit switch. The slow-down switch is adjustable so that you can increase or decrease when the slow-down is initiated. For example, on heavy gates it is desirable to increase the slow-down distance to provide the operator more time to slow-down and stop the gate. 1. 2. 3. 4. Turn power off.
3.4 Reverse Adjustment This vehicular gate operator is equipped with an inherent (Type A) entrapment sensing system. This system will sense an obstruction in either the opening or closing gate cycles and will cause the gate to reverse direction should an obstruction be encountered. For this system to function correctly, the gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions. A good set of ball bearing wheels (or rollers) is essential for proper slide gate operation. 1. Refer to section 3.

SECTION 4 – OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury or death: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 4.1 READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children. Always keep people and objects away from gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE 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.
4.2 Shutdown Conditions Under various entrapment conditions the operator will assume either a soft or hard shutdown (alarm) condition. To determine what type of reset action is required, you will need to understand how the different entrapment conditions affect the gate operator. 4.2.1 Soft Shutdown This occurs in various situations where the inherent or secondary entrapment protection devices have been activated.
4.2.3 Hard Shutdown A hard shutdown condition occurs when the inherent entrapment protection system has sensed two consecutive obstructions before the gate reaches the full open or full closed position. It can also be an indication that the gate is too heavy or that the gate hardware (wheels, rollers) is in poor condition and needs to be corrected. Do not reduce the operator reversing sensitivity in an attempt to correct for a poorly designed gate or for hardware that is in need of repair.
4.3 Manual Gate Operation This operator is equipped with a manual system that will allow the gate to be cranked open in the event of a power outage or equipment failure. NOTE: Never attempt to manually open any gate with an operator attached to it until you have verified that power to the operator has been shut-off. 1. Unlock the manual release access panel located on the top of the gate operator and open it.
SECTION 5 – 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. 5.1 Maintenance When servicing the gate operator, always check any secondary (external) reversing devices (loops, photo eyes, etc.) for proper operation.
5.2 Operator Diagnostics This gate operator is designed with built-in diagnostics that will alert you to potential or existing problems that the microprocessor has detected. Specific fault conditions are checked and the operator will signal that a fault exist through the built-in alarm. Constant tone is heard when power is applied: This indicates that the limit switch wire harness is not connected to the circuit board.
5.3 Trouble Shooting 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 terminals, motor capacitor and the motor. 1. Check the input indicator LEDs.
Gate opens a short distance, then stops and reverses. Gate opens but will not close. Gate closes but will not open. Gate starts to close, then reverses to open. Gate closes and then re-opens. Entrapment alarm is sounding. Operator will not run. Entrapment alarm sounds a short beep every 5 seconds. Entrapment alarm activates when power is applied and operator will not run. Operator runs for 1 second and stops, two short beeps are heard.
