BASE PLATE MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Assemble base plate by fastening M10x30 Hex set screws into base plate from under
the base plate up and tightening into position.
2. Mount base plate with bolts 160mm from the centre of the gate track and centre of base plate a
minimum of 250mm away from the gate opening.
3. Secure the base plate to the gate track by welding the base plate directly to the gate track. (Ensuring a
distance of 160mm from centre of gate track to centre of fastening screws).
4. Fit all required cabling through hole provided in base plate.
5. Support the back of the base plate with 40x40x3 angle iron (not provided) or similar off cut steel
knocked approximately 300 to 400mm into the ground.
6. Fill area below and around the base plate with approximately 300x400x300 concrete to ensure that the
motor will be secure.
7. NOTE - The DTS 624 motor must be fitted with a set of IR beams.

Gearbox mounting instructions
1. Fit gearbox over mounting bolts protruding from base plate.
2. Slide gate fully open and closed, insuring pinion gear has approximately 5mm clearance to gate at all
times.
3. Fasten gearbox down firmly to base plate using M10 washers and nuts.
Rack mounting instructions
1. Unlock and pull manual override lever fully out to disengage gearbox.
2. Using a 2,5 to 3mm spacer between the pinion gear and the rack, mount the rack
using Tek screws No12x20 (not provided) and screw the rack to the gate starting
from the tail of the gate and ensuring that the rack is mounted level.
(A spacer can also be put between motor and base plate when fitting rack).
NB: Ensure that one of the screws attaching the nylon rack to the angle is in line with the
limit switch spring when the gate is fully closed.
Limit switch actuator mounting instructions
1. Remove screw attaching the nylon rack to angle that is closest to the position that
you wish the gate to stop.
2. Fit limit switch actuator with screw provided, screwing into the nylon rack.
3. Adjust limit switch actuator so that the gate stops approximately 10mm before
the post.
Magnetic limit actuator Spring limit actuator
Important: A solid stop must be fitted at both ends of the gate to prevent the gate from moving past its
full open or close position.

PROGRAMING
1 – Run Time Setup (This will automatically happen when triggered after total power up or
by following the steps below).
Gate approximately 1metre open
With all dipswitches OFF (excluding dipswitch 2 pending motor direction), press & release
Bt/SET button.
Gate will close, open and close again and stop on close limit (Motor speed can be increased
during programming of open cycle by pushing and holding down the Bt/SET button). The
closing cycle of programming will automatically run at fast speed.
Control card will beep to confirm end of run time setup.
NOTE: If gate opens first, dipswitch number 2 is wrongly selected.
2 – Auto close (Default 15 seconds) (Infra red beams must be fitted if auto close is activated).
Switch Dipswitch 1 and 3 ON.
Press & hold Bt/SET button
PCB will Beep (1 Beep = 1 Sec)
Release Bt/SET button at required auto close time.
Switch Dipswitch 1 and 3 OFF.
Switch Dipswitch 3 back ON to activate the auto close.
3 – Pedestrian Opening (Default 1 meter / 4 seconds auto close)
Switch Dipswitch 1 and 4 ON.
Gate should be in closed position.
Press & Release Bt/SET Button.
Gate will open.
Press & release Bt/SET button to stop gate at required pedestrian opening distance.
Press & Hold Bt/SET button to program auto close time required.
Control card will Beep (1 Beep = 1 Sec)
Release Bt/SET button at required pedestrian auto close time.
Gate will close again.
Switch Dipswitch 1 and 4 OFF.
To reset factory default, push and release Bt Lrn or Pd Lrn, then press and hold Bt/SET for
approximately 5 seconds, the PCB will give 2 short beeps as acknowledgement.

Load setting
To adjust the load, turn the provided load pot very slowly to determine the load setting (Minimumanticlockwise & Maximum clockwise). The control card will beep as you turn the pot (1 - 5 beeps).
ON BOARD RECEIVER PROGRAMING
The onboard receiver is designed to work with Sentry rolling code transmitters.
The button used for Bt Lrn CANNOT be used for Pd Lrn and vice versa.
To erase a button from the receiver, in case of incorrect programming i.e. blue button should be for Bt Lrn
and not Pd Lrn.
Simply push and hold the Bt Lrn or the Pd Lrn for 5 seconds, the board will give 1 beep. Then push the button you
want to erase, the board will give 2 beeps as confirmation. That button is then erased and can be relearned into the
correct input.
To master erase:
Push and hold the Bt Lrn or the Pd Lrn button, after 5 seconds the board with give 1 beeps. Keep holding for
another 5 seconds then the board will give 2 beeps. All transmitters will now be erased.

ELECTRONICS
FEATURES:
1. Standard
2. Easy motor direction change
3. Auto close facility (Infra red beams must be fitted if auto close is activated).
4. Condominium / Free exit loop facility
5. P.I.R.A.C (Passive Infra Red Access Control) facility
6. Slowdown (Ramp down) facility
1. Standard Mode (No function selected)
When the gate is activated it will open and can be stopped in mid cycle by pressing the
transmitter or manual push button. Pressing the transmitter or push button can reverse the
gate. In standard mode the gate will remain on its open limit until it is triggered to close.
If main power fails, the motor will still operate until battery reaches 20 volt. Gate will then
remain close. Change to manual by overriding the motor by the override lever. When the
main power comes on again, lock in the override lever and the motor will function as
normal.
2. Easy motor direction change (Dipswitch 2)
By selecting the dipswitch, the motor direction and the limit wires are changed
automatically. Dipswitch ON, gate closes to the right. Dipswitch OFF, gate closes to the left.
(This can only be changed before programming or if neither limit switches are activated).
3. Auto close (Dipswitch 3 ON) (Infra red beams must be fitted if auto close is activated).
When Auto close is activated and the Gate opens to the open limit, the gate will wait the
pre-programmed time before automatically closing. If the gate is triggered while the gate is
in its closing cycle it will stop and reopen.
To override the auto close wait till the gate reaches its open limit then press & hold the
transmitter or manual push button for 5 sec. (The control card will give 1 long beep to
confirm the override) To reactivate the auto close, press the transmitter or manual push
button.
If the transmitter or manual push button is pressed while the gate is in its opening cycle, the
gate will close after the preprogrammed auto close time (from any position, not only from
the open limit)
Page 10

4. Condominium/free exit loop (Dipswitch 4 ON)
When condominium/free exit loop is activated on the unit, the unit will not respond to any
transmitter or manual push button while in its opening cycle or open position. When the
gate is on the open limit the unit will automatically wait the pre-programmed auto close
time and then close (even if auto close function is not selected i.e. dipswitch 3 is off).When
the gate is in its closing cycle and the transmitter or manual push button is pressed the gate
will stop and open. Auto close cannot be over ridden in condominium mode. If main power
fails, the motor will still operate until battery reaches 20 volt. Gate will then remain open.
Change to manual by overriding the motor by the override lever. When the main power
comes on again, lock in the override lever and the motor will function as normal.
5. P.I.R.A.C (Passive Infra Red Access Control) (Dipswitch 5 ON)
With P.I.R.A.C mode activated, if the gate is in its opening cycle and the IR beam is
activated and released the gate will stop and close immediately. When the gate is on the
open limit the unit will not automatically close unless auto close has been selected.
6. Slowdown (Dipswitch 6)
With dipswitch selected ON, the gate will have a long close and open ramp down distance,
and with the dipswitch OFF, a short ramp down distance.
NOTE - (For any gate exceeding 3.5 meters width, the long ramp down is recommended).
FOR SAFETY REASONS
Infra red beams are recommended for all
gate motor installations.
