1.3 Installation

A. CHECKS BEFORE INSTALLATION

Before proceeding with the installation check the following:

1. The structure of the gate should be suitable for automation.

2. The gate should be supported by upper guides.

3. Mechanical end stoppers must be provided to prevent the gate from running off the track.

4. The foundation should be strong enough to support the operator.

5. There are no cables or pipes in the path of the operator and the gate.

6. Be sure that gate moves freely.

7. There are no obstacles in the moving gate area.

8. The operator is not in a position where it can be easily or accidently damaged by passing
vehicles.

B. INSTALLATION

The iS500 should be installed on a flat, horizontal, solid concrete surface.

1. Assemble the base plate bracket as shown in fig 1.

Fig 1

2. Locate the position of the operator by using the dimensions shown in fig 2.1 & 2.2.

Fig 2.1

Fig 2.2

Note 1: The motor should be mounted as high as possible. After fixing the gear rack, the motor will be
lowered. See fig 5.

3. Make sure that the surface is horizontal.

4. Before mounting the base plate, run all power cables, accessories and sensor cables
through the slot in the base plate. Make sure you have enough length on the cable to
wire into the control card.

5. Mount the base plate securing it firmly using appropriate bolts as shown in fig 3. Use
anti-vibration spacers.

6. Mount the iS500 on the base plate using the provided screw as shown in fig 4.

C. GEAR RACK INSTALLATION

1. Move the Gate leaf to fully closed position.

2. Place the first piece of the rack level on the pinion and mark the drilling point on the gate,
drill a pilot hole and screw the rack using the self-tapping screw with the reinforcing plate.

3. Move the gate manually, making sure that the rack is resting on the pinion and fix all other
screws.

4. Bring the next rack and join it to the previous one by slotting it into inter-connecting slots.

5. Repeat this process until the gate is fully covered from fully open to fully close positions.

D. CHECK GEAR RACK INSTALLATION

•

Make sure that the rack is constantly in full contact with

the pinion for the full open and close travel cycle.

• After the rack has been installed it is recommended to
lower the motor position by about 1.5 mm (Fig. 5). This
is to ensure correct operation.

• Manually check if the gate reaches the mechanical
stop limits and make sure there is no friction during
gate travel.

• Do not use grease or other lubricants between rack
and pinion

Fig 5

E. LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT

• Install the limit switch brackets as shown in fig 6.

• The limit switch brackets should be initially installed at least 200mm before the end of travel

on both sides. Final adjustment should be done after successful travel learning with the
control card.

• Adjustments of the limit switch bracket should be done after all other components are
installed securely.

F. Manual Release

The iS500 has an unlocking mechanism. Once it’s unlocked, the gate can be operated manually in
both directions. The unlocking key is needed to unlock the motor. Please keep the key in a safe
place for later use. The manual release lever is located towards the bottom of the motor. (See
pictures below). Use the key to unlock the manual release lever. Once unlocked pull the lever so
that it’s perpendicular to the motor. The gate can now be used manually.

G. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

After successful motor installation, refer to the user manual of the control card
for automatic operation setup.
