U L 3 2 5 M O D E L C L A S S I F I C AT I O N S CLASS I – RESIDENTIAL VEHICULAR GATE OPERATOR A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a home of one-to four single family dwellings, or a garage or parking area associated therewith.
S A F ET Y I N S TA L L AT I O N I N F O R M AT I O N 1. Vehicular gate systems provide convenience and security. Gate systems are comprised of many component parts. The gate operator is only one component. Each gate system is specifically designed for an individual application. 2. Gate operating system designers, installers and users must take into account the possible hazards associated with each individual application.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR OPEN ROLLER GATES Gate Edge on Rear of Gate for Open Direction WARNING • Injuries occur when people get their hands or feet caught between the top or bottom of the gate and the gate roller. These potential pinch-points should be guarded against at all times. Enclosed style gate tracks are available for refitting of these rollers from many fence suppliers. Also, roller guards are available for installing over the rollers.
NING W IRING WARNING ION WARNING To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH: • ANY maintenance to the operator or in the area near the operator MUST not be performed until disconnecting the electrical power and locking-out the power via the operator power switch. Upon completion of maintenance the area MUST be cleared and secured, at that time the unit may be returned to service. • Disconnecting power at the fuse box BEFORE proceeding.
I N S TA L L AT I O N PAD MOUNTING (SL585 ONLY) Figure 1 RETRO-FIT INSTALLATION The operator is shipped from the factory with the lower mounting angles configured out (Figure 1). If you have pad constrictions, either angle can be unbolted and reversed to ‘angle in’. NOTE: If you are replacing an SL580 and wish to use the same pad mounting hardware, the gate side mounting angle must be installed angle in. Angle Out Angle In Figure 2 NEW INSTALLATION CONCRETE PAD PREPARATION: 1. Lay out concrete pad.
POST MOUNTING (SL585 AND SL595) RETRO-FIT INSTALLATION The operators come from the factory configured to mount to an inside the frame post mount dimension of 26" (outside to outside of posts). The frame comes slotted to accommodate posts 24 1/8" to 26", outside to outside (Figure 1). NOTE: If you are replacing a SL580, the frame will require adjustment to 24 1/8". Figure 1 NEW INSTALLATION (FIGURES 2 AND 3) 1. Locate and anchor two posts made of 3" (7.6 cm) outer diameter heavy walled pipe.
WARNING INSTALL GATE BRACKET AND DRIVE CHAIN WARNING CAUTION WARNING Figure 1 “Outside” To prevent damage to the operator or gate, DO NOT drive the limit (nuts) actuators on the shaft past their normal positions. Gate “Inside” 1. Mount gate brackets to the vertical front and rear posts of the gate (Figure 1). 2. Remove the operator cover or open access door. 3. Locate and engage the manual disconnect and lock it in place (refer to page 12). 4.
AVAILABLE CONDUIT ACCESS FOR THE ELECTRICAL BOX The accessory tray is equipped with several 1-1/2" pass though holes as well as 3/4" and 1" knock outs for conduit connectors. The electrical box is equipped with 3/4" and 1" knock outs for conduit connectors. ON/OFF SWITCH POWER WIRING NOTES: Before running power wiring refer to wiring specifications on page 8 for correct wire gauges. Secure all electrical power connections inside the disconnect switch electrical box.
ADJUSTMENT LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT WARNING NOTE: Make sure the limit nuts are positioned between the limit switch actuators before proceeding with adjustments. 1. Remove control panel cover and locate the limit switch assembly. 2. Disengage the unit’s manual disconnect (page 12), then manually open the gate to its full open position (Note direction of limit nut travel). 3. Adjust the open limit nut by depressing the retaining bracket to allow nut to spin freely.
INSTALL VENT PLUG 1. Remove fill plug from gear box. 2. Install vented plug provided with the hardware box. 3. Remove relief valve from the new vented plug. Fill Plug Drain Plug UL325 ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION PRIMARY ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION ADJUSTMENTS Force Control Set the force control pot such that the unit will complete a full cycle of gate travel but can be reversed off an obstruction without applying an unreasonable amount of force. On most operators this will be around the middle of the range.
UL325 ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION (CONTINUED) EDGE/PHOTO OPEN EDGE/PHOTO CLOSE This switch (S2-3) selects edge or photo sensor for the gate opening protection input. This switch (S2-4) selects edge or photo sensor for the gate closing protection input.
PROGRAM SETTINGS (DIP SWITCH S1) NOTE: For all S1, S2 and S4 switch settings to take effect, the Save Mode switch must be set to the off position. TIMER TO CLOSE TIMER TO CLOSE ENABLE This switch enables the auto close timer. The timer to close feature works in conjunction with the potentiometer located on the board.

ACCESSORY WIRING All inputs are normally open and momentary, except the stop (N.C.). The following instructions are based upon UL325, and include recommendations for significant increase in safety. We strongly recommend that you follow the UL guidelines presented throughout the manual. Refer to instructions shipped with optional control devices for mounting, wiring, programming and adjustment. R3 R4 R2 R1 RADIO RCVR.
ACCESSORY WIRING (CONTINUED) Terminals 7 & 5 (Com) - Hard Open Override Control Input These terminals are intended for use only with the open control of a 3-button station that is installed within line of sight of the gate. A momentary activation of this input will cause the gate to open. Activation of this input for longer than three seconds will enable the control to be used as a constant pressure override device.
SEQUENCED ACCESS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (SAMS) The Sequenced Access Management System or SAMS allows the customer more control when managing vehicular entrances to areas such as apartment complexes, businesses and gated communities. The basic concept of the system is that traffic is controlled by two gates installed in tandem, a fast moving gate such as a barrier gate operator and a slower moving more secure or ornamental gate such as a single or pair of slide/swing gate operator.
O P E R AT I O N A N D M A I N T E N A N C E NING WARNING IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ION WARNING To reduce the risk of SEVERE 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 the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE. 4. Test the gate operator monthly.
SOLENOID ACTUATED BRAKE The brake minimizes over-travel caused by gate coasting. An added feature of the brake is to assist in preventing back driving of the gate. The brake is spring-applied whenever the motor is not running. Anytime the motor is running, the electric solenoid physically releases the brake. A solenoid brake is standard on SL585/595 operators. The brake is adjusted at the factory and should not need additional adjustment for the the life of the friction pad.
CONTROL BOARD PROGRAMMING AND FEATURES (CONTINUED) LED Code Flashed FORCE CONTROL Set the force control pot such that the unit will complete a full cycle of gate travel but can be reversed off an obstruction without applying an unreasonable amount of force. On most operators this will be around the middle of the range. NOTE: For LED location refer to illustration on previous page.
TROUBLESHOOTING FAULT OPERATOR FAILS TO RUN POSSIBLE CAUSE 1) Improper wired stop control 2) Fault in the operator check the yellow diagnostic LED at the top right of the control board next to the programming dip switches.
TROUBLESHOOTING FAULT MASTER OR SECOND OPERATOR IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY POSSIBLE CAUSE 1) Failure to cycle power after setup 2) Communication wiring may be damaged or improperly wired for dual gate operation 3) Master or second unit is not programmed correctly FIX ➤ The power to each unit must be cycled in order to initiate proper master/second communication if the operators were previously in stand-alone mode.
