402 Installation
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Both the installer and the owner and/or operator of this
system need to read and understand this installation
manual and the safety instructions supplied with other
components of the gate system. This information
should be retained by the owner and/or operator of the
gate.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of 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 noncontact 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.
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. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
When installing the photo-beams supplied with this
unit two things need to be considered.
1. Care should be exercised to reduce the risk of
nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle, trips
the sensor while the gate is in motion.
2. One or more photobeams shall be located
where the risk of entrapment exists, such as
the perimeter reachable by the moving gate
leaf.
GATE DESIGN
1. A gate is a potential traffic hazard, so it is important that you locate the gate far enough away
from the road to eliminate the potential of traffic
getting backed up. This distance is affected by the
size of the gate, how often it is used, and how fast
the gate operates.
2. The operator you choose to install on your gate
must be designed for the type and size of your gate
and for the frequency with which you use the
operator.
3. Your gate must be properly installed and must work
freely in both directions before the automatic
operator is installed.
4. An automatic operator should be installed on the
inside of the property/fence line. Do not install the
operator on the public side of the property/fence
line.
5. Pedestrians should not use a vehicular gate system.
Prevent such inappropriate use by installing
separate gates for pedestrians.
6. Exposed, reachable pinch points on a gate are
potentially hazardous and must be eliminated or
guarded.
7. Outward swinging gates with automatic operators
should not open into a public area.
8. The operating controls for an automatic gate must
be secured to prevent the unauthorized use of those
controls.
9. The controls for an automatic gate should be
located far enough from the gate so that a user
cannot accidentally touch the gate when operating
the controls.
10. An automatic gate operator should not be installed
on a gate if people can reach or extend their arms
or legs through the gate. Such gates should be
guarded or screened to prevent such access.
INSTALLATION
1. If you have any question about the safety of the
gate operating system, do not install this operator.
Consult the operator manufacturer.
2. The condition of the gate structure itself directly
affects the reliability and safety of the gate
operator.
3. Only qualified personnel should install this
equipment. Failure to meet this requirement could
cause severe injury and/or death, for which the
manufacturer cannot be held responsible.
4. The installer must provide a main power switch that
meets all applicable safety regulations.
5. Clearly indicate on the gate with the 2 warning signs
that are included (visible from either side of the
gate).
Page 3
August, 2002
402 Installation
Page 3
6. It is extremely unsafe to compensate for a damaged
gate by increasing hydraulic pressure.
7. Devices such as reversing edges and photobeams
must be installed to provide better protection for
personal property and pedestrians. Install reversing
devices that are appropriate to the gate design and
gate application.
8. Before applying electrical power, be sure that the
voltage requirements of the equipment correspond
to your supply voltage. Refer to the label on your
operator system.
USE
1. Use this equipment only in the capacity for which it
was designed. Any use other than that stated should
be considered improper and therefore dangerous.

THE CONTROL PANEL
The 402 Operator must be installed with a 450 MPS
control panel to be a U.L. recognized installation. The
450 MPS can be used to control a single 402 operator
or a dual (bi-parting) system. Both the control panel
and the operator must use the same power supply
voltage.
THE 450 MPS
To determine the voltage requirement of your 450 MPS
control panel, refer to the label on the transformer of
the control panel:
Label reads: 1450MPSUS = 220 VAC

UNPACKING THE OPERATOR
When you receive your 402 Compact Operator, complete
the following steps.
Inspect the shipping box for physical damage such as
leaking oil or a torn carton. Then inspect the operator
after you remove it from the box. Notify the carrier
immediately if you note any damage because the carrier
must witness the damage before you can file a claim.
As you unpack the box, insure that all the parts listed

THE 402 COMPACT OPERATOR
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The 402 Compact Operator is an automatic, light-duty
gate operator it can accommodate a gate leaf up to 10 ft
(3m) in length and up to 900 lbs (410 kg) in weight.
Note: The 402 Compact Operators are not
recommended for use with solid gates.
The self contained 402 operator is an electro-hydraulic
unit consisting of an electric motor, a pump, a valve
assembly and a hydraulic cylinder, all housed in an
anodized aluminum oil reservoir.
All models of the 402 operator have one hydraulic lock.
The CBC version is designed to lock when the piston is
extended. The CBA version is designed to lock when the
piston is retracted.
The hydraulic lock is a service device rather than a
security device. Additional external locks are
recommended under the following conditions:
• Your gate leaf is 10 ft or longer.
• Your installation site requires tight security.
• Your gate site is subject to vandalism.
• Your gate site is subject to strong or very
gusty wind.
• Your gate system has an open-hold-open
device.
The electronic control panel is a microprocessor-based
controller that accepts a range of product accessories
and reversing devices to allow flexibility in designing
the gate system. The 450 MPS control panel allows you
to set the opening/closing time, a leaf delay for a twoleaf gate system, the operating logic for your gate
system, the pause time, the reversing stroke, and the
behavior of reversing devices.
For its protection, the single phase, bi-directional
electric motor shuts off automatically if its operating
temperature reaches 212 deg F (100 deg C). Also for the
protection and proper operation of the 402 operator,
each gate leaf on which it is installed must have a fixed
positive stop in both the open and closed positions.
The 402 Operator also includes a triangular key
operated Manual Release Mechanism and two bypass
valves which precisely control the force applied to the
gate leave(s). The Manual Release Mechanism is a key
operated device that disengages or engages the
hydraulic system of the 402 Operator. When the
hydraulic system is disengaged, you can open and close
the gate leaf by hand. Such manual operation of the
gate leaf is necessary during installation and useful
during power failures.
The two bypass valves located on the top of the
operator needs to be adjusted to meet the safety
standards of FAAC International, Inc. The standards
state the gate leaf should stop, if it encounters a force
greater than 33 lbs. (15 kg). Once the pressures are
adjusted, the by pass valve screws are covered so that
the pressures are not altered.
Additional reversing devices such as photobeams or
reversing edges should be installed to provide more
complete safety for people and property.
The electronic control panel is a microprocessor-based
controller that accepts a wide range of product
accessories and reversing devices. Thus allowing for
flexible gate system design.
450 MPS LOGIC MODES
Note: The 450 provides inputs for opening
reversing devices and closing reversing devices.
FAAC strongly recommends the use of reversing
devices, such as photocells or other non-contact
sensors.
• A (automatic): The gate opens on command
and automatically closes after a pause phase. A
second command on opening is ignored; a
second command during the pause phase
interrupts the pause time; a second command
during closing reopens the gate. A maintained
open command will hold the gate open.
• S (security): The security mode is like A logic
except that a second command during opening
immediately closes the gate. A maintained
open command will not hold the gate open.
• E (semi-automatic): This mode requires a
command to open and a command to close. A
second command during opening or closing
causes the gate leaves to stop. A third
command then closes the gate.
• EP (semi-automatic, step by step): This mode
requires a command to open and a command to
close. A second command during opening or
closing causes the gate leaves to stop. A third
command then reverses the previous motion of
the gate.
• B (manned, pulsed): This mode is designed for
guard station use and requires a three-button
switch (pulsed) to open, close, and stop the
gate.
• C (manned and constant): This mode requires
constant pressure switches. One to open and
one to close. No pressure on a switch stops the
gate.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Page 9
Installing the 402 Compact Operator involves preparing
the gate, installing the operator(s), installing the control
panel, and fine-tuning the pressure adjustments on the
operator(s).
Note: The following installation instructions
assume you are fully capable of installing an
operator. This manual does not instruct you in
designing a gate, installing a gate, or basic
electrical wiring. The installation tasks discussed in
this manual are tasks peculiar to the 402 Operator.
PREPARING THE GATE
Before installing the 402 Operator, you need to prepare
the gate itself for the operator. Be sure to do the
following things:
1. Make sure that the gate is plumb.
2. Make sure that the gate moves smoothly on its
hinges without excessive friction by swinging
it open and closed by hand. Lubricate all the
gates’ moving parts.
3. Provide positive stops for the gate leaves in
the fully open and fully closed positions (see
Figure 2).
You can now move the gate leaf slowly by hand to open or
close the gate.
Operating the gate leaf by hand is necessary during
installation and is useful during power failures.
You re-engage the hydraulic system by turning the key
clockwise one full turn.
Turn the key counterclockwise 1/2 turn to
disengage the hydraulic drive
Figure 3. The Manual Release key,
bottom view
Figure 2. Positive Stops
MANUAL RELEASE MECHANISM
Insert the key and turn it counterclockwise one full turn to
disengage the operator’s hydraulic system (see Figure 3).
NSTALLING THE OPERATOR
I
Installing the model 402 operator consists of the
following steps:
1. Attaching the rear mounting bracket
2. Attaching the operator to the rear mounting
bracket
3. Attaching the front mounting bracket to the
operator
4. Attaching the operator to the gate leaf
5. Adjusting the hydraulic pressures for the
operator
ATTACH THE REAR MOUNTING BRACKET
Page 10
Page 10
August, 2002
402 Installation
Attach the rear mounting bracket according to the
dimensions in Figure 4.
WARNING! You must achieve the A and B
dimensions, dimensions as specified in Figure
4. Modification of the rear bracket may be
necessary to achieve these dimensions (I.e.,
cutting or extending the bracket provided)
If you have a steel gate post, weld the rear bracket
directly to it. If the gate post is made of any other
material, attach the optional mounting plate, with lag
bolts or anchors, and weld the bracket to it.
For an outward swing gate refer to Figure 5.
ATTACH THE MOUNTING HARDWARE
Place the operator so that the red and green pressure
adjusting screws face up. Place the mounting fork (hex
cut up if you have a nylon rear fork) in the operator’s
rear flange, secure with the long brass pin and selflocking nut.
Attach the fork assembly to the rear mounting bracket
and secure with the short pint, washer, and nut.
Push the front pin through the front mounting bracket
then the piston red to temporarily attach them
together.
ATTACH THE FRONT MOUNTING BRACKET TO
THE OPERATOR
Insert the triangular key over the Manual Release
mechanism on the underside of the operator and
turn the key counterclockwise one turn.
For inward swing, pull the piston completely out and
push it back inward approximately 1/4 “ (6mm).
For outward swing, push the piston in completely
and pull it back out approximately 1/4“ (6mm).
NOTE: Be sure the operator is level and that
the gate is against the closed positive stop.
Hold the front mounting bracket flush against the
gate, mark the location of the front mounting
bracket, remove the operator from the gate.
Remove the front mounting bracket from the piston
rod.

Page 11
NOTE: Clamping the front mounting bracket at
the marked location before checking the swing,
as instructed below, will ensure proper location
of the front mounting bracket.
Bolt or weld the front mounting bracket to the
marked location on the gate.
WARNING! Do Not Weld the front mounting
bracket with the operator attached. Doing so
will seriously damage the operator.
ATTACH THE OPERATOR TO THE GATE
Re-attach the operator to the mounting brackets. Once
the operator is mounted and level, remove the vent
screw from the bottom of the valve body. Use a 3mm
hex wrench.
WARNING! Failure to remove the vent screw may
result in erratic operation of the operator or blown
seals.
Slowly move the gate open and close.
WARNING! The piston should not bottom out in
either direction. Doing so will seriously damage
the operator.
Be sure that the gate reaches the positive stop
before the piston bottoms out.
After checking the swing of the gate, secure all nuts and
bolts.
Once the operator is secure, install the protective cover
over the piston of the operator, first insert the two
spacers (items labeled 2 in Figure 6) in the front flange
of the operator as shown. The spacers dampen any
vibrations to the operator.
Next, slip the cover over the operator. The slit in the
cover should face the gate, and the cover should be
placed firmly over the rear of the operator cover (item 1
in the figure).
Finally, use the black plastic screws (items 3 and 4) to
fix the cover to the operator and the end cap (item 5).

CONNECT THE MAIN POWER SUPPLY
WARNING! Turn the main power off before you
make any electrical connections or set any switches
inside the control panel box.
Wire the main power supply to control panel terminals
in block J1 (see Figures 8 and 9). The installer is
responsible for insuring that a separate, grounded
circuit protected by a circuit breaker is between the
control panel and the main power supply. All wiring
should conform to applicable electrical codes, and all
wiring and fittings should be weatherproof and/or
suitable for burial.
Page 13
Connect the ground to the grounding terminal in block
J1 and connect the power wires to the terminals labeled
N (neutral) and L (phase).
CAUTION: The operators are grounded only by
the grounded circuit the installer provides.
OTE: For a 230V system, a neutral is not
N
needed. Connect one 115V line to the L (Line)

switches inside the control panel box.
Turn the main power off before you
USING A JUNCTION BOX
Connecting your operator(s) to the control panel may
require the use of one or more junction boxes. Whether
you need 0, 1, or 2 U.L. Listed junction boxes depends
on your gate design (refer to Figure 10).
If any operator is more than 2 ft away from the U.L.
Listed control panel enclosure, the connection must be
made inside a junction box. Use a U. L. Listed cord grip
where the operator cord enters the junction box; use
conduit between the junction box and the enclosure.
CAUTION: The control panel will NOT operate
without an operator connected to terminals 3,
4, and 5.
If your gate system has one operator, connect the
capacitor and the brown and black (or red and black)
wires from your operator to the terminals 3 and 5 in
block J2 for Motor 1. Connect the blue (or white) wire
from the operator to terminal 4 for Motor 1.
Note: If you want to delay the closing of one
gate leaf in a two-leaf gate design, be sure to
connect its operator to Motor 1 (terminals 3, 4,
and 5).
If your gate system has two operators, connect the
second operator to terminals 6, 7, and 8 in block J2 for
Motor 2. Connect the second capacitor and the brown
and black (or red and black) wires to terminals 6 and 8,
and connect the blue (or white) wire from the operator
to terminal 7 for Motor 2.
CHECK THE MOTOR’S DIRECTION OF
OTATION
R
After you have connected the main power supply, one
activating device, and the operator(s) to the control
panel, you need to check the direction of rotation for
each operator motor in your gate design.
To check a motor’s direction of rotation, you must have
three closed circuits on terminal block J3. Install one
circuit between terminals 11 and 21, another circuit
between 13 and 21, and another circuit (or stop device)
between terminal 14 and 15.
You cannot check the motor’s direction of rotation
without these circuits (jumpers) or the accessories.
When properly prepared for testing, the LEDs DL3, DL4,
and DL5 should be illuminated.
WARNING! Running the operator—even for
testing purposes—without a connected
reversing device is potentially dangerous. Do
not place yourself within the path of the
moving gate during your test.
You also need to install a normally open activation
device across terminals 18 and 19.
Disengage the operator(s) with the Manual Release key,
and open the gate by hand about halfway.
Next, engage the operator(s) with the Manual Release
key so that you can check the rotation of the motor(s).
Turn on the main power and send an activating signal
to the operator(s). The gate leaf (or leaves) should
open. If a gate leaf closes, then you need to turn off the
main power and reverse the connection of the brown
and black (or red and black) wires on terminal block J2
for the operator controlling that leaf. Then you need to
recheck the rotation direction again.
If your gate system has two operators, be sure the
motor of each rotates in the correct direction.
After having completed your test of the motor’s
direction of rotation, replace any test circuits you
installed (between terminals 11 and 21, between 13 and
21, and between 14 and 15) with the proper reversing
and stop devices. The instructions for installing such
accessories follow.
CONNECT OTHER DEVICES
WARNING! Turn the main power off before you
make any electrical connections or set any
switches inside the control panel box.
Now you can connect additional reversing and activating devices to the control panel. Refer to Figure 11 for
Page 16
Page 16
August, 2002
402 Installation
the general control panel layout, and refer to Figure 9
for the layout of the terminal strip.
POWER SUPPLY FOR ACCESSORIES: You can access a
30 VDC output for supplying power to accessories that
require DC voltage through terminals 9 and 10 (located
above the label 30 Vcc) on terminal block J3. In most
cases, this source can be used to power 24 VDC
accessories.
N
OTE: The 450 MPS control panel allows a
maximum accessory load of 800 mA.
REVERSING DEVICES: Reversing devices include
photobeams, inductive loops, and so forth. All of the
reversing devices should have contacts of the normally
closed (N.C.) type. Where you connect a device depends
on whether you want the device to operate during
opening or during closing.
Note: UL does not recognize the FAAC system
with loop detectors or safety edges. FAAC
photobeams must be used to comply with UL 325.
Caution: Failure of a reversing device that
operates during opening causes a gate to lock
in the closed position and requires the use of
the Manual Release.
To wire photobeams, refer to Figure 9 (see FSWOP for
opening photobeams, and FSWCL for closing
photobeams— wire the photobeams exactly as shown).
See Figure 11 for the wiring of a variety of common
accessories. In either case, if you have multiple devices,
wire them in series.
ACTIVATING DEVICE: The activating device for your
gate must have normally open (N.O.) contacts. If you
have a dual gate, connect devices to terminals 18 and
19. If you have a dual gate and want a particular device
to open only one leaf, connect it to terminals 16 and
17.
DECODER CARD: If you are installing a FAAC radio
receiver, a Digicard magnetic card reader, or a Digikey
keypad, use the quick-fit connector J4 for the radio
receiver or the DS (formerly the MD01) decoder card
(see Figure 8).
OTE: If you are using both a receiver and a
N
decoder, hard wire the decoder and plug the
receiver in.
OPEN/HOLD OPEN DEVICE: To open hold the gate
open, you must use a latching switch wired to terminals
18 and 19.
STOP BUTTON: The stop button you install must have
normally closed (N.C.) contacts. Multiple stop buttons
must be wired in series. Connect your stop device
between terminals 14 and 15.
THE LED INDICATORS: The five light-emitting diodes
(LEDs) on the control panel can be used to check for the
proper functioning of the devices you attach to the
control panel. The LED lights are on whenever the
contacts are closed across each of the respective
terminals.
DL1 and DL2 should illuminate only when an activating
signal is sent for 2 and 1 gate leaves, respectively. DL3
should be illuminated except when the stop button is
pressed. DL4 and DL5 should be illuminated except
when the reversing devices, for opening and closing,
respectively, are triggered. Use the LEDs and the next
table to determine if the accessory devices you have
installed are operating properly.

ELECTRIC LOCK: Connect your lock to the terminals 24
and 25. The terminals provide 12 VAC that pulses for 4
seconds whenever the gate starts to open. An electric
lock can make use of the reversing stroke function
controlled by DIP switch 5. A reversing stroke is a short
closing phase that allows the electric lock time to
disengage itself before the operator starts its opening.
Turn DIP switch 5 on only if necessary for your lock to
function correctly.
See Figure 11 for the wiring of a magnetic locking
device.

WARNING LIGHT: Connect a warning light to terminals
22 and 23 in the group labeled W.LIGHT in terminal
block J3. The terminals provide an output voltage of 30
VDC, maximum power 3 Watts. This output voltage will
power most 24 VDC warning lights.
Note: The behavior of the warning light varies
according to the logic you have set:
Logics A, S, E, EP, and B: The warning light is
on steadily during opening and the pause
phase. During closing, the light flashes.
Logic C: The warning light is on steadily during
opening and flashes during closing.
SET OTHER OPERATING CONTROLS
WARNING! Turn off the main power before you
make any electrical connections or set any
switches inside the control panel box.
You need to set DIP switches and adjust the
potentiometers on the control panel for your gate's
operation. The 450 MPS Control Panel has 5 DIP
switches and 4 potentiometers that control a wide range
of functions.
SET DIP SWITCHES
Switches 1, 2, and 3 (Operating Logic): The 450
MPS Control Panel offers six operating modes: A, S, E,
EP, B, and C. For more details about the logical modes,
refer to the operating modes previously listed in this
manual.
Switches 1, 2, and 3 control the operating logic
according to the following scheme:
DIP Switch
Logic
A on off on
S on off off
E off on off
EP on on off
B on on on
C off off on

SWITCH 5 (REVERSING STROKE): Sometimes electric
locks require a reversing stroke to disengage the lock. If
your gate does not always open because your lock is
hanging up, you may want to activate the Reversing
Stroke.
Reversing Stroke DIP Switch 5
Not activated off

Adjust the Potentiometers
The four potentiometers control the torque, the pause
time, the opening/closing time of operation, and the
leaf delay on closing.
TORQUE: The torque potentiometer on the 450 MPS
must be turned all the way clockwise for the 402
Operator. The potentiometer is for the FAAC Model 412,
a screwdrive operator. The torque potentiometer cannot
be used to adjust the operator’s hydraulic operating
pressures.
CAUTION: Failure to turn the torque
potentiometer to maximum in the clockwise
direction jeopardizes the life of the motor of
your operator.
WARNING! Adjust the operating pressure on
the 402 Operator only by means of the
hydraulic bypass valve screws. See pages 12
and 20.
PAUSE TIME: The pause time between opening and
closing can be adjusted from 0 to 240 seconds. Turn
the potentiometer clockwise to increase the pause time
and counterclockwise to decrease the pause time.
OPENING/CLOSING TIME: The opening/closing time is
adjustable from 10 to 62 seconds. The approximate
opening/closing time for a 90-degree opening is about
12 seconds. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to
increase the time and counterclockwise to decrease the
time.
For optimal operation, set the time so that the motor
remains active for a couple of seconds after the leaf has
reached its limit stop for opening and for closing.
Page 19
August, 2002
402 Installation
LEAF DELAY: You may choose to delay one leaf on
closing for overlapping gate leaves. Be sure the operator
on the leaf for delayed closing is connected to Motor 1.
On opening, the leaf connected to Motor 2 is delayed
2.5 sec.
Note: You cannot adjust this opening delay of
the operator connected to Motor 2. However,
you can turn off the delay by closing the jumper
labeled “Leaf Delay Disable”.
The closing leaf-delay time is adjustable from 0 to 28
seconds. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase
the time and counterclockwise to decrease the time.
Note: If one-leaf gate designs, be sure to set
the potentiometer for leaf delay to its minimum
(0 seconds).
NOTE: If the opening/closing time is set at less
than the leaf delay time, the delayed leaf closes at
the end of the closing time.
Page 19
MAINTENANCE
THE 402 OPERATOR
The FAAC recommended maintenance schedule varies
according to the frequency of use of the operators,
whether lightly used operators (once or twice an hour)
or heavily used operators (many cycles per hour),
operators used in a humid, salt air climate should follow
the heavy duty use schedule.
CHECK THE OIL.
To check the oil level correctly, remove the operator
from the gate leaf. With the piston rod completely
retracted and pointing to the ground, remove the rear
flange and look at the oil level in the casing of the
operator. The oil level should be about 3/4 in. (20 mm)
from the top edge of the operator casing. If the
operator is too full, it will bleed oil out the vent hole.
Light duty use: every 12 mo
Heavy duty use: every 6 mo
CHANGE THE OIL.
Light duty use: every 48 mo or 4 yrs
Heavy duty use: every 24 mo or 2 yrs
CHECK THE PRESSURE SETTINGS.
Light duty use: every 12 mo
Heavy duty use: every 6 mo
THE CONTROL PANEL
Keep the Control Panel free from spider webs, insects,
etc. Otherwise the Control Panel requires no
maintenance.

TROUBLESHOOTING
WARNING! Before you do any work on the control panel,
be sure to turn off the main power.
PROBLEM: THE GATE DOES NOT OPEN
COMPLETELY.
SOLUTION:
Check the gate for mechanical obstacles that might
prevent the gate from opening.
If the motor stops running before the gate is completely
open (or closed), you need to adjust the opening/
closing time for the operator or check the bypass valve
adjustment. On the one hand, you can increase the
opening/closing time of the operator so that it runs
long enough to close the gate. You can, on the other
hand, increase the pressure. If the pressure is too weak
the leaf movement may slip, preventing full closure
before the motor stops running.
Check your dimensions for mounting the rear bracket.
Incorrect dimensions can make a full 90-deg swing
impossible.
PROBLEM: THE GATE OPENS BUT DOES
NOT CLOSE.
SOLUTION:
Verify that you have correctly wired the operator to the
control panel.
Verify that the reversing devices are working properly.
If you have installed no reversing devices, make sure
that you have installed a jumper wire across the
reversing device terminals on the control panel.
If the motors are running, insure that the bypass valve
pressure adjustment is correct.
PROBLEM: THE RADIO CONTROLLED
OPENER DOES NOT OPEN THE GATE.
SOLUTION:
Check the light on the front of the remote transmitter. It
should illuminate when you signal the gate. If it doesn't
illuminate and if the batteries are okay, repair or replace
the transmitter.
Verify that the codes on the receiver and transmitter are
the same.
Verify that the wiring for the radio controlled devices is
correct.
Check the fuses on the control panel.
Check the wiring for the antenna and correct it if
necessary.
Determine if the fault is in the receiver by temporarily
connecting a push button device across the control
panel activating terminals. If such a push button device
opens the gate, repair or replace the receiver
