Estate Slide Summery of Functions

The Estate Slide is only to be used for vehicular Slide gates in a Class I
setting.

Class I: A vehicular gate opener (or system) intended for use in a home of

one-to-four single family dwelling, or a garage or parking area associated
therewith.

The FAAC Estate Slide automated system was designed and built for controlling
vehicle access. Do not use for any other purpose.

The EstateSlide automated system automates residential Slide-leaf gates with
leaves of up to 16’ in length.
It consists of a locking electro-mechanical linear operator, powered by a 12V DC
battery, coupled with control board recharging the battery. The MASTER card can
be programmed and is used to set the following: function logics, work times (by
self-learning) and pause times, leaf speed, and the sensitivity of the anti-crushing
device.
The locking system will automatically lock when the motor is not operating. A re­lease system enables the gate to be moved by hand in case of a system failure.

Keep this manual safely stored after
installation.

Standard System
Overview and Safety
Zones

The system display to the right is a
recommended standard system.
Other approved accessories can be
installed. Photo sensors and a flash­ing light indicating gate movement
is recommended for safety purposes.

1 Estate Swing Operator
2 Photocells (not included)
3 Key operated pushbutton
4 Flashing lamp
5 Radio receiver (optional)

Notes: 1) Do not extend operator connection cables

2) When laying electrical cables, use
appropriate rigid and/or flexible tube

3) Do not run any wires in the same conduit as
110 AC power that may be in the area. This
will cause unwanted interference

IMPORTANT
Preliminary Checks:

To ensure safety and an efficiently operating automated system, make sure the following condi­tions are observed.

• The gate and post must be suitable for being automated. Check that the structure is suffi-

ciently strong and rigid, and its dimensions and weights conform to those
indicated on page 1. In particular, wheel diameter must be in relation to the weight of the
gate to be automated. Dimensions and weight must match those indicated in the technical
specifications.

• Make sure the leaves move smoothly without any irregular friction during entire travel.

• The soil must permit sufficient stability for the expansion plugs securing the foundation

plate.

• Check if the upper guide and travel limit mechanical stops are installed.

We advise you to have any metalwork carried out before the automated system is installed.

2.1

Tools Needed

• Power Drill

• Crescent Wrench

• 3/8” Drill Bit

• Hacksaw

• Flat Head Screwdriver

• Phillips Head Screwdriver

• Tape Measure

• Level

• Wire Strippers

• C-clamps

Other items that may be needed prior to commencing installation.

• Additional low voltage wire may be required to run power to your operator.

Length is determined by distance between transformer power supply and the
control box.

• If the gate is more than 1000’ from an a/c power supply then alternate power will

be necessary to charge your battery.

• Depending on the current base, you may need cement to form a level mounting

pad.

• A voltage meter may be necessary to run diagnostic checks.

• A digital camera will come in handy with technicians if any support is needed.

3.1

IMPORTANT: Charging Battery Prior to Use

Before beginning any electrical stages of installation we highly recommend charg­ing the battery on the control board for 12 hours. This can be done anywhere there
is an outlet available.

1. Plug the battery into the control board (fig 1). For charging purposes it is not

necessary to hook the receiver to the battery or control board.

2. Insert the wires from the supplied AC transformer into terminal J2 of the con-

trol board. NEVER RUN 110V AC or POWER IN THROUGH ANY

OTHER METHOD BESIDES THE PROVIDED TRANSFORMER TO
THE CONTROL BOARD.

3. Let the unit charge for 12 hours, after you

can proceed with the installation
process.

Manual Operation

1. Open the protective door by turning the slotted lock with a coin of large flat
head screw drive.

2. Take the supplied key located inside the door, fit it in the release system and turn
it clockwise until it reaches the mechanical stop.

3. Open or close the gate manually.

5.1

Installation of Mounting Hardware

Set the Foundation Plate

1. Fit the 4 supplied caged nuts, as shown below, in the 4 square holes of the plate.

2. The foundation plate must be located as shown in example A (right closing) or example B
(left closing) to ensure the rack and pinion mesh correctly.

3. Secure the foundation plate to the floor, using adequate expansion plugs (below) and provide
one or more sheaths for routing the electrical cables. Using a level, check if the plate is per­fectly level.

A B

6.1

4. Lay the electric cables for connection to the accessories and power supply. To facilitate mak-

ing connections, allow the cables to project by about 8 inches from the hole of the foundation
plate.

Operator Installation

1. Position the operator on the plate using the supplied screws as shown below.

3. Secure the operator to the foundation plate, tightening the screws as shown below.

4. Prepare the operator for the manual operating mode as described in section 5

6.2

Rack Installation

1. Manually take the leaf to its close position.

2. Lay the first piece of rack at the appropriate level and mark the hole position on the gate.
Make a hole and use nuts, bolts and washers to make a connection to the gate (not provided).

The holes in the rack are made oblong for adjustment after the holes are drilled. No special
bolts are required for mounting, simply tightening the bolts will hold the rack secure.

3. Move the gate manually, checking if the rack is resting on the pinion. Repeat at each hole.

4. Bring another rack element near the previous one, using a piece of rack (as shown below) to
synchronize the teeth of the two elements.

5. Move the gate manually and carry out the secur-

ing operations as far as the first element, proceed­ing until the gate is fully covered.

Notes on rack installation

• Make sure that during the gate travel, all the rack elements mesh correctly with the pinion.

• Do not, on any account, weld the rack elements either to the spacers or to each other.

• When you have finished installing the rack, adjust the distance between the pinion teeth and

the rack groove. Check if the distance is .06” (below) along the entire travel using the rack
slots.

• Manually check if the gate habitually reaches the travel limit mechanical stops and make sure

that there is no friction during gate travel.

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

6.3

Travel Limit Magnet Installation

The ESTATE SLIDE operator is supplied with a sensor, by detecting the transit of two magnets
secured to the top of the rack, commands gate movement to stop.

1. Position the magnets on the rack as shown in below.

2. Power up the control board and enter the diagnostic mode (chapter 10)

3. Manually take the gate to the open position, but allow
a space of 2 cm from the travel limit mechanical stop
position. Slide the magnet on the rack until you see
that LED 1 on the control board goes off. Tighten the
magnet’s securing screws.

4. Manually take the gate to the closed position, but al­low a space of 2 cm from the travel limit mechanical
stop position. Slide the magnet on the rack until you
see that LED 1 on the control board goes off.
Tighten the magnet’s securing screws.

5. Re-lock the operator.

6.4

Control Board Layouts

ATTENTION: Study the control board and read this section

thoroughly before attempting to operate your gate opener.

Warnings:

• Before attempting any job on the control board (connections, maintenance), turn

off electrical power and unplug the support battery.

• Install a surge protector upstream of your opener, the opener is not power surge

proof nor will power surge damage be covered under warrantee.

• Always separate power from control and safety cables (push-buttons, receivers,

photocells, etc.). To avoid any electrical noise, use separate sheaths or a shielded
cable (with earthed shield).

Power

1. The Estate Slide comes with 1) AC transformer. If the AC transformer supplied has 4
screw terminals, use the center 2 terminals to attach your low voltage wire (polarity is
not relevant). You may locate the transformer up to 1000’ away from the control
board with 16 gauge or larger direct burial low voltage wire.

2. Insert the two wires into the power in section on the control board (J2) on the master
board. The wires are interchangeable and do not have a positive and negative. Do not

splice the power cable wire.

Never run 110VAC power directly to the Estate Swing. This will destroy the Es­tate Slide control board.

3. Before plugging in your trans­former, plug the battery into the control

board. The clear plastic clip gets clipped
into J4 with the clip side on the left. The
other side of the battery wire has a clear
plastic disconnect that slides on the battery
terminals. Red to Red, Black to Black. Re-

versing the wires will blow the fuse.

Never connect the power wire with the
transformer plugged in. Contact between
the two lead wires, even for a second, will
destroy the transformer.

4. Plug the transformer into a 110 V AC
outlet.

5. The transformer is not weather proof
and must be kept in a covered area. Plug

covers are available from your dealer,
contact 1-800-640-GATE for a dealer in
your area.

6. The power light (P) will be on if the
power and battery are connected properly.
If the power light is blinking slowly then
only the battery is connected, check your
power
connections.

8.1

Control Board Pre-Learning Preparations

For your opener to function properly a few connections must be made prior to the learning
process. Accessories should NOT be installed until after the learning process is completed.

1. Using the provided orange jumper wire, connect the normally closed safety terminals
(terminals 3, 4, and 5) to one of the negative terminals (terminals 12, 13, 14, or 15). We
recommend that these jumpers are later replaced with safety devices after learning is com­plete.

2. Connect the power last. First connect the battery to the control board and then connect
the power supply to J2 on the control board.

3. Your connections can be checked using the diagnostics mode. Press P2 once. On a
single gate opener operation C, D, and E should be lit. After checking press P2 again to
exit the diagnostics mode. To learn more about diagnostics see section 2.

9.1

NOTE: Before beginning the one touch learning procedure be sure to have the limit magnets
set up. These will let your gate know where to stop during the learning process.

Enter Learning Mode

Enter the programming mode by
pressing P1 6 times until all 5
LEDs (A,B,C,D,E) are lit. This is
the learning mode.

Programming

While the 5 function LEDs
(A,B,C,D,E in picture) are lit
steadily, briefly press (about 1
second) the P2 button.

The operator or operators start
the opening maneuver, and the
function LEDs begin flashing.

Wait for the operator or opera­tors to reach the opening stops. The learning procedure has finished. Press P1 once more to exit

the learning mode before attempting to operate the opener.

You may now test your gate opener or continue on with changes to the factory speed, force,
delay settings. To test your opener, briefly touch a wire from terminal 1 to one of the

negative terminals (12, 13, 14, or 15).

10.1

Programming Gate Movement Variables

Using the following procedures you can change factory settings such as auto
close, speed, force, delays and more.

Begin the programming process by
pressing P1. Pressing P1 selects
A,B,C,D or E. A, B, C, D and E corre­spond with the variables in the chart on
the following page.

When you are on the desired variable
you would like to change the setting of

press P2 to change the setting of that
variable. P2 will change the light to 1,
2, 3 or 4 which correspond with the set­tings on the chart below on the follow­ing page. Below is a list what each vari­able controls.

A: Switches between Function Logics. Function Logics are sets of actions that will occur
when an accessory terminal connection is made or disrupted. Each set of actions is de­signed to give different results providing increased safety, convenience or other.

B: Switches between the amount of time the gate pauses before closing after reaching full
open. By selecting Logic EP (4) all pause times will be void and the gate will remain open
until an opening devices is triggered.

C: Adjusts the partial opening width.

D: Switches between the amount of force the gate opener will exert before an obstruction is

detected and the gate reverses directions.

E: Switches between the speed of the gate motion. This does not effect the soft start and
stop.

Photocell & Safety Device Guide

Before connecting the photocells (or other devices) we advise you to select the type
of operation according to the movement zone to be protected.

Opening Safety Devices: They operate only during the gate opening movement and,

therefore, they are suitable for protecting the zone between the opening leaves and
fixed obstacles (walls, etc.) against the risk of impact and crushing.

Closing Safety Devices: They operate only during the gate closing movement and,
