SAFETY INSTALLATION INFORMATION
1.Install the gate operator only when:a. The operator is appropriate for the construction and the usage class of the gate.b. All openings of a horizontal swing gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of
4' (1.2 m) above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4" (6 cm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the
gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position.
All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
c.
2. The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate
access opening.
3. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when
opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas.
4.The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator.
5.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.
6. Controls intended to be used to reset an operator after 2 sequential activations of the entrapment protection device or devices
must be located in the line of sight of the gate, or easily accessible controls shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized
use.
7.All warning signs must be installed where visible, on each side of the gate.
8.For a gate operator utilizing a non-contact sensor:a. Reference owner’s manual regarding placement of non-contact sensor for each type of application.b. Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is
still moving.
c. One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter
reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
9.For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge sensor:a. A hard wired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so the communication between the sensor and the gate
operator is not subject to mechanical damage.
b. A wireless contact sensor such as the one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment
protection functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building
structures, natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless contact sensor shall function under the intended end-use
conditions.
c. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the leading edge, trailing edge and post mounted both inside and outside of a
vehicular horizontal slide gate.
d. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vehicular vertical lift gate.e. One or more contact sensors shall be located on the inside and outside leading edge of a swing gate. Additionally, if the bottom
edge of a swing gate is greater than 6" (15 cm) above the ground at any point in its arc of travel, one or more contact sensors
shall be located on the bottom edge.

Wiring
WARNING
WARNING
CAUTION
CAUTION
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.
• Disconnect battery and 25 Vdc transformer or solar panel
BEFORE proceeding. Operator MUST be properly grounded
and connected in accordance with local electrical codes. NOTE:The operator should be on a separate fused line of
adequate capacity.
• ALL electrical connections MUST be made by a qualified
individual.
All power wiring should be on a dedicated circuit and well protected.
NOTE: Calculated using NEC guidelines. Local codes and conditions must be reviewed for suitability of wire installation.
• DO NOT install any wiring or attempt to run the operator
without consulting the wiring diagram. We recommend that
you install an optional reversing edge BEFORE proceeding
with the control station installation.
• ALL power wiring should be on a dedicated circuit and well
protected. The location of the power disconnect should be
visible and clearly labeled.
• ALL power and control wiring MUST be run in separate
conduit.
• BEFORE installing power wiring or control stations be sure to
follow all specifications and warnings described below.
Failure to do so may result in SEVERE INJURY to persons
and/or damage to operator.
To AVOID damaging 25 Vdc plug-in transformer, it MUST be
enclosed in a suitable weatherproof enclosure and provided
with proper weatherproof fixtures.
Use 14 gauge / 300 watt direct burial, landscape lighting wire
NOT to exceed 1000 ft. for transformer.
EARTH GROUND ROD INSTALLATION
Proper grounding gives an electrical charge, such as from an
electrical static discharge or a near lightning strike, a path from
which to dissipate its energy safely into the earth.
Without this path, the intense energy generated by lightning could
be directed towards the Elite gate operator. Although nothing can
absorb the tremendous power of a direct lightning strike, proper
grounding can protect the gate operator in most cases.
The earth ground rod must be located within 3 feet from the Elite
gate operator. Use the proper type earth ground rod for your
local area.
The ground wire must be a single, whole piece of wire. Never
splice two wires for the ground wire. If you should cut the ground
wire too short, break it, or destroy its integrity, replace it with a
single wire length.
To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate:
DO NOT disconnect the built-in audio alarm or reset switch.
To AVOID damaging gas, power, or other underground utility
lines, contact underground utility locating companies BEFORE
digging more than 18" (46 cm) deep.

This is for a typical single Robo Slide loop installation. Individual circumstances may alter dimensions.
Maximum gate length for Robo Slide is 20 Feet.
As A increases in size to cover a larger gate opening, the gate will cause a larger change of inductance when opening and closing.
Therefore dimension C must increase as A increases.
If the Inside and outside safety loop are connected to the same loop detector they should be series connected. Dimension A, B and C
should be the same for each loop. Both loops should have the same number of turns of wire.
Dimension D should be equal to or greater than the larger of the “Inside Safety Loop” or “Exit Loop's” dimension B.

CAUTION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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. The gate MUST reverse
on contact with a rigid object or stop when an object
activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting the
force or the limit of travel, retest the gate operator.
Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly
can increase the risk of INJURY or DEATH.
5. Use the emergency release ONLY when the gate is
not moving.
1. Disconnect power before servicing.
2. The gate area should be kept clean to insure proper
operation.
3. Make sure the reversing sensor is functioning properly.
Check it monthly (Page 30).
4. Make sure the gate track is clear of dirt, rocks or other
substances.
5. Make sure the wheels are operating smoothly on the track.
6. Oil the chain regularly with a chain lubrication oil available at
most motorcycle stores.
7. Replace blown fuses ONLY with sizes specified (Page 34).
8. Check for proper synthetic oil level in the gear box.
(10W-30 weight synthetic oil).
6. KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the
owner’s manual. Have a qualified service person make
repairs to gate hardware.
7. The entrance is for vehicles ONLY. Pedestrians MUST
use separate entrance.
8. Disconnect ALL power BEFORE performing ANY
maintenance.
9. ALL maintenance MUST be performed by a
Chamberlain professional.
10.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
9. Severe or high cycle usage will require more frequent
maintenance checks.
10. Inspection and service should always be performed anytime
a malfunction is observed or suspected.
11. When servicing, please do some “house cleaning” of the
operator and the area around the operator. Pick up any debris in the area. Clean the operator as needed.
12. It is suggested that while at the site voltage readings be
taken at the operator. Using a Digital Voltmeter, verify that
the incoming voltage to the operator it is within ten percent
of the operators rating.
To reduce the risk of FIRE or INJURY to persons use ONLY
Chamberlain part # ABT12 for replacement battery.
