Thank You ...

for purchasing the GTO/PRO® EXIT WAND. This product requires no maintenance and will give you years of enjoyment by providing hands free operation of your gate. GTO, Inc. has been designing and manufacturing reliable, high quality products since 1987. Our corporate headquarters and state of the art manufacturing facility is located in Tallahassee, Florida. One of our highest priorities is to provide outstanding technical service to our customers. Therefore, if you have any questions or require any technical assistance, please call 800-543-1236 or 850-543-4144 and ask to speak to one of our technicians.

The EXIT WAND you have purchased is designed with some of the most advanced technology available. In layman’s terms, the wand detects a change in the earth’s magnetic ﬁeld caused by a mass of metal in motion and automatically opens your gate. The range adjustment potentiometer (POT) that connects to the control box provides you with the ability to increase or decrease the wand’s sensitivity range.

If a metal object is placed directly above the wand (with little motion) it may cause the wand to activate, thus opening your gate. For this reason we do not recommend the EXIT WAND in environments exposed to children.

Prior to installing your wand please read the manual thoroughly. There are important safety recommendations of which you should be aware. This product, and any accessory you purchase, should only be installed on a gate operator that meets the current safety standard (UL325). If you have a gate operator that is not listed with the current standards, please contact the GTO Sales Department toll free (800) 543-4283 for consultation on a gate operator that can meet your speciﬁc needs.

Before You Start ...

Please read the instructions completely before you begin the installation.

Terms and Deﬁnitions:

• METAL OBJECT: anything that is made of iron based metal, from a child’s toy to a car or truck.

• WAND: the magnetic device inside the waterproof tube that detects METAL OBJECTS in motion.

• MAGNETIC FIELD: an area around the WAND where metal in motion can be detected.

• MAGNETIC DISTURBANCE: a change in the MAGNETIC FIELD which lets the WAND know that it needs to send a signal to the gate operator to open the gate.

• RANGE: the distance from the WAND in which a MAGNETIC DISTURBANCE can be detected in the MAGNETIC FIELD.

• RANGE ADJUSTMENT: the RANGE is adjustable from a 3 to 12 foot* radius by tuning the ADJUSTMENT POTENTIOMETER (POT) on the RANGE ADJUSTMENT CONTROL BOARD (shown on page 5). Within this RANGE, the closer you get to the WAND, the less metal and motion an object needs to cause a DISTURBANCE in the MAGNETIC FIELD.

CAUTION This principle explains why a child’s tricycle, bicycle and other metal play equipment moving

close to the WAND may have the same DISTURBANCE as a car or truck at a greater distance, and can cause the gate to open.

• WIRE CLAMP: a device which provides a secure and weatherproof opening for the wire from the WAND to be brought into a control box (see Parts Identiﬁcation on cover).

• DOUBLE SPADE CONNECTOR: a wire connector which allows the connection of two wires to be connected to a single terminal (see Parts Identiﬁcation on cover).

How the EXIT WAND works:

• When a metal object such as a car, truck or motorcycle in motion disturbs the MAGNETIC FIELD around the WAND, a signal is sent to the automatic gate operator’s control board, signaling it to open the gate.

• The metal object must be in motion to disturb the MAGNETIC FIELD, thus activating the gate operator. A stationary vehicle or object will not disturb the MAGNETIC FIELD.

How the EXIT WAND’s RANGE ADJUSTMENT works:

• The RANGE distance can be adjusted from a 3 to 12 foot* radius from the WAND.

• The potentiometer varies the sensitivity range of the WAND to avoid unwanted moving metal objects from activating the gate operator, such as: other moving gates; metal play equipment; garage doors; other vehicular trafﬁc; etc.

• With the RANGE adjusted to the maximum of 12 feet*, a large metal object moving slowly will be detected 12 feet* from the WAND, while a small metal object moving slowly might not be detected at the same distance. As you move closer toward the WAND, the small moving metal object will at some point cause a DISTURBANCE in the MAGNETIC FIELD and activate the gate operator.

* Range distance is approximate and will vary due to outside interference, type of soil, vehicle mass, speed, etc.

Placement of the WAND:

Gate Operator Control Box

Driveway

RANGE: 12 ft. radius (max)

up to 145 ft. of Cable (max)

WAND: 2 feet from driveway (max)

Open Gate Outside Sensor Range

25 ft. from gate (min)

• The WAND comes with 50, 100 or 150 feet of cable. A typical installation will require about 5 feet of wire to come from the ground up and into the control box for connection to the power supply and control board. Check your speciﬁc installation for exact dimensions.

• From the point on the ground where you will run the WAND cable into the control box, lay the wire out on a path as far as you can from the control box. The WAND should be no more than two (2) feet from the edge of the driveway and no closer than 25 feet from the end of the open gate.

• The WAND’s RANGE can be adjusted to a maximum of 12 feet*. The movement of a gate in its open position could cause a DISTURBANCE in the MAGNETIC FIELD of the WAND if it comes within the RANGE of the WAND. Make sure the end of the open gate is a minimum of 25 feet from the WAND. If you have a situation where the WAND has to be buried closer than 25 feet you will have to adjust the RANGE of the WAND to compensate for the closeness.

Installation Overview:

• Once the best location for the WAND is determined, you are ready to bury the WAND and run the cable underground to the control box. Connect the WAND wires and the RANGE ADJUSTMENT CONTROL BOARD to the gate operator control board and power supply. Adjust the RANGE if necessary. Finally, place the WARNING signs on the gate. That’s it!

For Optimum Performance:

• Locate the WAND as far as possible away from power transformers, power lines, under ground gas line, and telephone lines.

• Locate the WAND away from general moving trafﬁc to prevent unwanted activation. Remember that the WAND detects MAGNETIC DISTURBANCES caused by a vehicle’s mass and velocity.

• It is recommended that you run the WAND cable inside PVC conduit.

• Do not run WAND cable in conduit with other wires such as power or other control wires.

• The WAND cable CAN NOT be spliced. If you need more wire, contact the GTO Sales Department at 1-800-543-GATE (4283).

* Range distance is approximate and will vary due to outside interference, type of soil, vehicle mass, speed, etc.

Drill 7/8" Diameter Hole For Dual Gate System

Determining WAND Location:

Step 1: Determine the optimum location for the EXIT WAND using the information found in “Placement of the

WAND” on page 2. Then dig a hole approximately 12 inches deep and 24 inches long within two (2) feet and parallel to the edge of the driveway. Next, dig a trench from this hole to a spot under the gate operator control box to run the wire from the WAND to the control box.

Keep the WAND and the cable uncovered at this time.

We recommend that the cable be run in PVC conduit to the control box to prevent damage to the cable from lawn mowers, weed eaters and grazing animals. Do not run any other type of wire or cable in conduit with WAND cable.

Installing The WIRE CLAMP: The WIRE CLAMP (includ-

ed) is used to secure the WAND cable where it enters the control box to prevent it from being accidently pulled out.

Step 2: If you are installing the WAND on a GTO/PRO low voltage single gate operator, use a screwdriver or steel punch to carefully remove the thin plastic knockout disk (see illustrations at right) at the bottom of the control box. If you have a dual gate operator system on a PROSW1000/2000 or PRO-SL1000/2000 system or are installing the WAND on a GTO/PRO AC powered operator, drill a 7/8” diameter hole at the bottom of the control box and install the WIRE CLAMP. On non-GTO operators, see page 10 of this manual, as well as, consult the manufacturers intallation maunal.

Be careful with tools to avoid contact or damage to the control board!

Step 3: Use a sharp knife or deburring tool to clean the rough edges from

the hole.

Step 4: Unscrew and remove the lock nut from the WIRE CLAMP hub (included with hardware). From the outside of the control box, insert the WIRE CLAMP hub and sealing nut (see illustration right) into the new WIRE CLAMP hole. Finger tighten the lock nut onto the threaded end of the WIRE CLAMP hub from inside the box.
