HySecurity Gate OperatOrS: uL 325 – 2016

The following bullet points highlight how your automated gate system sites can monitor external entrapment protection using HySecurity gate operators:

• Normally Closed (NC) sensors – Before gate movement occurs, the gate operator veries that the external entrapment protection sensor is connected and fully functional.

• Build Year (BY) – An added menu item distinguishes between pre-2016 manufacturing dates and UL 325 - 2016 manufacturing dates. Build Year (BY) is a factory-setting. Build Year 2 (BY 2) is the default for all HySecurity gate operators indicating a manufacturing date of 2016 in the serial number. Replacement controller boards for existing sites allow for a Build Year setting of 1 (BY 1) (pre-2016).

• Independent Sensor Inputs – The edge, photo eye and photo eye COM inputs on the Smart Touch and Smart DC Controllers (STC and SDC) have been re-labeled. The same wiring connections become three

independent methods for easy entrapment sensor conguration and normally closed outputs.

Table 3: External Entrapment Protection Sensors Approved for Use with HySecurity Gate Operators

The site designer or installer must determine which external entrapment protection sensors will be installed with the gate operator to create a UL 325 compliant installation site.

NOTE: Table 3 provides the list of sensors that are approved for use with HySecurity gate operators using the monitoring capabilities found in software versions h4.53 or h5.54 (or higher). These sensors are ETL listed or UL recognized to UL 325 and have been tested and approved by Intertek for use in HySecurity gate operators.

impOrtant Safety infOrmatiOn

WARNING

Read all the product safety information prior to installation. Automatic gate operators move the gate with high force and can cause serious injury and death! Make sure the automatic gate operator is installed to reduce the risks of entrapment. Verify the gate operator is installed to comply with all safety standards and local and federal regulations.

Understand that you as the site designer, installer, maintenance crew, or owner/user must consider the risks

associated with automatic gate operators. Hazards exist with automatic gate operators and can be reduced

with proper gate site design, installation and use. Installers, maintenance crews, and owners/users must

take responsibility to read and follow the safety requirements and Important Safety Information found in the

HySecurity product manuals and review all the literature that accompanies the product.

It is important that only qualied installers handle the installation of the HySecurity equipment and gate operator. A “qualied” installer has one of the following:

• A minimum of three years experience installing similar equipment

• Proof of attending a HySecurity Technical Training seminar within the past three years

• Signicant manufacturer endorsements of technical aptitude in automatic gate operator installation and operation

Underwriter Laboratories (UL) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) are responsible for current safety standards and regulations regarding automatic vehicular gate operators. To pass certication, all

aspects of gate operator and gate installation must comply with the appropriate safety standards.

For the most up-to-date ASTM F2200 Gate and Fence Standards, refer to www.astm.org. For UL 325 Standard of Safety, refer to www.ul.com.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

impOrtant Safety infOrmatiOn

WARNING

A moving gate or barrier arm, bollard, or wedge can cause serious injury or death.

To reduce the risk of injury or death:

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Read the gate operator’s product manual and review all the product labels and literature prior to installing, operating, or maintaining the automatic gate operator.

2. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep all remote controls, especially radio transmitters, away

from children. Do not allow children to play on or around the gate or gate operators.

3. Always keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING

GATE. Start the gate operator only when a gate’s travel path is clear.

4. Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or stop when an object activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel, retest the gate operator. Perform routine tests of the entrapment protection sensors, such as photo eyes and gate edges. 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 product manuals. Have a qualied service person make repairs to gate hardware and replace batteries in accessory or entrapment sensory devices on a regular basis.

7. The automated gate entry is for vehicle use only. Pedestrians must use a separate entrance. Make sure a separate walk-through entrance is nearby. Make certain a clear pedestrian path is designated and signs direct pedestrians to the walk-through gate.

8. Install the supplied WARNING signs on the inside and outside of the gate or barrier gate/operator so they are clearly visible from both the secure and public sides. Installing the signs is a requirement for UL 325 compliance.

9. Use monitored sensors for protection against entrapment as specied in the current UL 325 Standard of Safety.

Safety - Additional Installer Responsibility

• The gate operator must be properly grounded and the incoming power voltage must match the voltage label on the junction box.

• Verify and install an automatic gate operator per its usage class and only on gate sites that comply with ASTM F2200 Gate and Fence Standards. See Identifying Gate Operator Category and Usage Class on page 5. Screen or enclose openings in the gate and install sensors to monitor potential entrapment areas per UL 325

Standard of Safety, which includes:

• All horizontal slide gates must guard or screen openings from the gate’s base support to a minimum height of

6 feet (183 cm) above the ground. This must prevent a sphere of 2¼ inches (57 mm) in diameter from passing

through an opening in the gate or the adjacent fence that is covered in the gate’s open position.

• Physical stops must exist in the gate construction to prevent over-travel in both directions and, for slide gates,

guard posts must be installed to prevent the gate from falling in the event of a roller failure. Exposed rollers must be capped to avoid potential entrapment.

• Make sure all exposed pinch points are eliminated or any exposed pinch points, rollers and wheels are

guarded.

• External entrapment protection sensors must be used wherever the risk of entrapment exists.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

identifyinG Gate OperatOr cateGOry and uSaGe cLaSS

Gate operators are given a usage class according to UL 325 Standard of Safety. The usage class is determined by the area that the vehicular gate operator services.

Four different vehicular usage classes are dened by UL 325:

Class I

Class I: Intended for use in garages or parking areas associated with a residence

of one to four single families.

Class II

Class II: Intended for use in a commercial location or building such as a multifamily housing unit (ve or more single family units) hotels, garages, retail stores or other buildings accessible by or servicing the general public.

Class III

Class IV

Class III: Intended for use in an industrial location or building such as a factory or loading dock area or other locations NOT accessible by or intended to service the general public.

Class IV: Intended for use in a guarded industrial location or building such as

an airport security area or other restricted access locations, NOT servicing the

general public, in which unauthorized access is prevented via supervision by

security personnel.

Safety - Additional Installer’s Responsibility, continued

• Before attaching the operator to the gate, move the gate or barrier gate in both directions. Make sure it is level and moves freely. A gate or barrier gate that moves easily reduces strain on operator components. Gravity should

play no part in the opening or closing of a slide gate.

• Never over-tighten a clutch or pressure relief valve to compensate for a stiff or damaged gate.

• Reduce the risk of entrapment throughout the entire travel path by making sure the gate is installed in a location

which ensures the required clearance between the gate and adjacent structures when opening or closing. On slide gates, minimize the parallel gap between the gate and the fence.

• Install the gate operator on the secure (non-public) side of the gate. Note that swing gates cannot open into public areas.

• Install external entrapment protection sensors so pedestrians are protected from entrapment in both directions of gate travel and all hazard areas are fully protected. On hydraulic gates, set the pressure relief valve at the lowest allowable setting that will reliably operate the gate. The pressure relief valve controls the applied force of the operator and the sensitivity of the inherent entrapment sensor (IES). Note that no IES exists in the

StrongArm.

• Never disable the Warn Before Operate buzzer. This buzzer provides an alert that the gate is about to move.

• Mount access control devices beyond reach of the gate. The control devices that operate the gate must:

• Be mounted beyond 6 feet (183 cm) of the gate to prevent users from touching or accessing the gate while

operating the controls. People attempting to access the controls by reaching through or around the gate can be seriously injured or killed by the moving gate.

• Incorporate a security feature to prevent unauthorized use.

• Connect radio and other remote access (non-resetting controls) to the RADIO OPTIONS terminal.

• Be located in a clear line of sight to the gate. Locate access controls (Open, Close, Stop/Reset) where a user

will have a clear view of the gate.

NOTE: An exception for Emergency Access Control devices exists. An EAC device accessible by

authorized personnel only (e.g. re, police, EMS) may be placed at any location within the line-of-sight.

• Open and close the gate to conrm that it was properly installed and to ensure monitoring sensors are working correctly. Verify the clearance between the gate and adjacent structures per UL 325 Standard of Safety. Have a qualied technician test the gate monthly.

• When you complete the installation, demonstrate the safety features and operation of the gate operator to the end user:

inStaLLinG tHe eartH GrOund

An earth ground refers to the grounding rod and accompanying equipment ground which need to be installed to safeguard against potential electrical shock and damage to personnel and equipment.

The potential for lightning discharge exists with all gates, fences and gate operators. National Electric Code (NEC) - Article 250 requires a separate earth ground in addition to the required equipment ground.

HySecurity recommends grounding the operator with a separate earth ground rod (or a similar device in the case of crash products) to shield the operator against electromagnetism and other electrical signals that may cause, erratic operation with, or damage to, the Smart Touch Controller and other electrical parts.

For earth grounding requirements in the U.S.A., refer to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 780 - Standard for the Installation of

SlideDriver Chassis

NOTICE: Properly grounding the gate operator is critical to gate operator performance and the life of its

electrical components. Use sufcient wire size during installation. If you do not ground the operator with a

separate earth ground, you risk voiding the HySecurity Warranty.

Site Considerations

WARNING

HySecurity gate operators are intended for permanent installation. Make sure you prepare the site with the following considerations:

• Make sure all electrical wiring is properly routed via conduits.

• Check the distance of the wiring run from the main panel to the gate operator. Make sure the wire size of the branch circuit supplying power to the gate operator is large enough to avoid excess voltage drop. Refer to Wire Sizing and Runs on page 14.

• Make sure the available power source matches the electrical requirements specied on the voltage nameplate.

Each gate operator is built to run on a specic line power voltage and phase. Failure to ensure the source voltage, phase and frequency match what is specied for the equipment, may result is severe damage to the equipment.

• Make sure a 20-amp circuit (minimum) protected with a 20-amp Inverse Time Breaker is provided for all AC power connections.

• Verify that the operator is electrically grounded per NFPA 780 and NEC Article 250 and local codes.

WirinG ac pOWer

The SlideDriver has separate Installation Instructions that explain how to connect to AC power. For reference purposes, the same information is provided below.

In-rush Current: The current needed to start the electric motor spinning in the proper direction (CCW). It may take as much as 6 to 9 times the in rush current to start one of the heavy duty operators.

NOTE: Use a 20A (minimum) slow kick (thermal) circuit breaker for all AC motors.

Size the primary wires. Consider the voltage, horsepower, and length of the wire run from the main power panel.

Make sure you have the proper voltage and conversion of voltage taps at the motor and transformer.

DANGER

Turn OFF AC power at the source (circuit breaker panel) before accessing the wires in the SlideDriver. Follow facility Lock Out/Tag Out procedures. Make sure all power switches are in the OFF position. Follow all electrical code standards and regulations.

Supplying a gate operator with the correct electrical service is crucial to the performance of the operator and the life of its electrical components. If the wire size used is too small, the voltage loss, especially during motor startup, will prevent the motor from attaining its rated horsepower. The percentage of horsepower lost is far greater than the percentage of voltage loss.

A voltage loss can also cause the control components to chatter while the motor is starting, substantially reducing their life due to the resultant arcing. There is no way to restore lost performance resulting from

undersized wires, except to replace them. Be sure to choose a sufcient wire size at initial installation to avoid

costly rewiring.

The tables on the following page are based on copper wire and allow for a 5% voltage drop. The ampere values shown are the service factor ampere rating of the motor (maximum full load at continuous duty). At minimum, a 20A circuit (protected with a 20A Inverse time Breaker) should be provided.

Always connect electrical power and ground the operator in accordance with the NFPA 780 & NEC, Article 430 and Article 250. Research and adhere to other local codes that may apply.

Low Voltage Control Wiring

The Smart Touch Controller has very sensitive control inputs. The following is a chart of maximum distances for wire size:

Wire Size Maximum Distance

18 ga 7.0 miles (11 km) 20 ga 3.5 miles (5.6 km) 22 ga 2.7 miles (4.3 km) 24 ga 2.0 miles (3.2 km) 26 ga 1.0 mile (1.6 km) 28 ga 3700 feet (1.1 km)

SlideDriver Wiring Charts (Incoming Power)

The maximum distance shown is from the operator to the power source, assuming that source power is from a panel box with adequate capacity to support the addition of this motor load. The values are for one operator, with no other loads applied to the branch circuit. Avoid placing more than one operator to a circuit, but if you must, be certain to reduce the maximum allowed wire distance by half.

Performance of 50VF-series Operators on 1 and 3 Phase, 50 or 60Hz

A HySecurity 50VF-series operators can operate on a wide variety of incoming power.

• 50Hz/60Hz operation with no changes or reconnection

• 1Ø or 3Ø operation by eld rewiring and reconnection. The incoming voltage must match the operator nameplate. Although the electric motor can be reconnected, a different VFD (motor controller inside the grey control box) is required between 460V and 208V/230V.

• Any AC powered peripherals such as locks, card readers and other devices need to be checked for compatibility.

How is this done?

WARNING

• The VF controller in the operator is rated to operate on input frequencies ranging from 48Hz through 62Hz on 1Ø or 3Ø power (a jumper connection is required for phase change) but only on either 460VAC or 208V/230V. (A change between 460V and 230V, either direction, requires replacing the VF controller).

• The control transformer in the operator is tapped for multiple voltages and rated for 50/60Hz operation.

• The VF controller rst recties and lters the incoming power to DC, which has no frequency or phase. It then creates 3Ø variable voltage/variable frequency AC for the motor from the DC.

• Depending on the model, the VF controller ramps the motor voltage and frequency from 0V@0Hz at start, to either 208/230 or 460 VAC @ 60Hz for full speed. This allows use of 60Hz motors regardless of the incoming frequency.

• Since the input voltage/frequency is converted to DC to begin with, there is absolutely no relationship between the input frequency/phase and frequency/phase of the power supplied to the motor. The input could be 1Ø or 3Ø, 48Hz or 62Hz and the controller/motor combination wouldn’t care. It will create the ramped 3Ø voltage and frequency for which it is programmed.

NOTE: SlideDriver 50VF operators connected for 1Ø operation will draw more current because the utility power to run the machine will be carried to the operator on two wires instead of the three used for 3Ø operators. Be sure to allow for this difference when specifying wire size.

In-Field Connections

SlideDriver 50VF-series operators are eld re-connectable for 1Ø or 3Ø, 208/230VAC input power without

changing the VFD.

SlideDriver 50VF-series operators CANNOT be connected to 120V, 1Ø power or 575V, 3Ø power. If any attempts

are made to do so, serious injury, electrical shock, or death may result. Any electrical damage occurring to the

operator will not be covered by the Warranty.

SlideDriver 50VF-series operators are NOT eld recongurable between 208/230VAC and 460VAC power. The VFD Motor Controller in a 208/230VAC unit must be replaced with a VFD Motor Controller manufactured for the

higher (460VAC) voltage input.

adjuStinG tHe Brake vaLveS

Proper adjustment of the brake valves is important for smooth operation of the gate. The position and placement of the limit ramps on the drive rail plays an important part on how the brake valves work.

Brake valves

In order for the brake valves to have time to function, the limit ramp must trigger the limit switch at least two inches before end of gate travel.

Adjustment of the brake valves, one for each direction of travel, will determine how quickly the gate actually stops.

The adjustment is counter-intuitive.

A counter-clockwise adjustment stops the gate more rapidly. If the adjustment is set too loose, the limit ramps will bang into the drive wheels. If the adjustment is set too tight, the system pressure will increase, the gate speed may decrease and the gate will jerk to a stop.

Brake valves are factory-set to midpoint, two turns. This should be sufcient for most applications.

1. If the limit switch triggers and the drive rail stops more than two inches into the limit ramp, increase braking. If adjustment is needed, loosen the >\zn-inch lock nut on the top of the brake valve and make ¼-inch incremental turns on the adjustment stem with a hex key. Note that the adjustment screw varies depending on model type.

2. When the adjustment is complete, retighten the locking nut to hold the setting.

DANGER

The gate operator has a vent plug that keeps the hydraulic uid from spilling during shipment. The vent plug must be replaced by the breather cap before operating the slide gate.

Failure to perform the following procedure will cause premature pump shaft failure and void the Warranty.

1. Remove the vent plug and discard it.

2. Replace the vent plug with the breather cap.

CAUTION

When placing the operator into service, pressure relief valve adjustments are required! To provide instruction during installation, a cautionary yellow tag is wire tied to every pump pack. The same instructions are provided in this section.

Pressure relief valves differ depending on the model.

Tools Needed: 5/3 2 " hex key, ½" and 9/1 6 " box end wrenches.

NOTICE: Pressure relief valve adjustments establish the threshold for the inherent entrapment sensor (IES). The

optimal pressure setting produces uniform gate travel and trips the IES when the gate encounters an obstruction.

measures to keep the gate’s travel path clear. The gate will be moving while you adjust the pressure relief valve.

DO NOT attempt to adjust the pressure relief valve unless you are an experienced hydraulic gate operator installer. Incorrect pressure settings can cause injury and even death!

1. Expose several threads on the Pressure Relief Valve by loosening the locknut with a 9/1 6 " box end wrench.

2. Depending on the model, insert a 5/3 2" hex key or use a ½" box end wrench to turn the Adjustment Screw.

3. Use the keypad to cycle the gate open or close and, while the motor is running, turn the Adjustment Screw clockwise (CW) to raise the pressure. The motor runs for a few seconds, stops, and then enters safe mode. SAFE appears on the display.

4. Press RESET and repeat step 3 until gate travel is reliably consistent without entering SAFE mode.

5. To lock in the pressure setting, hold the Adjustment Screw with a hex key or wrench and tighten the locknut.

mOdBuS rtu in SLidedriver 50vf-SerieS

In the 50VF series SlideDriver™, a communication protocol allows the Smart Touch Controller to constantly monitor the Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) and record events in the STC history log. The history log is easily accessible using the HySecurity S.T.A.R.T. program and a PC laptop computer or view history log codes by accessing the User Menu, LG item (software version h5.53 or higher).

With the ModBus RTU:

• Reduction in eld calls is likely because the STC resets VFD faults or error codes upon receiving a new command.

• Quality issues with the site power are controlled better which results in less intermittent operator problems.

• Smoother operator acceleration and deceleration enhances gate travel.

All 50VF2-3 series SlideDrivers shipped after January 1, 2012 have the new ModBus cable and RTU communication protocol installed. If you need replacement parts for your existing 50VF series operators, be sure to have the serial number of the operator available when you order parts.

If you install a new 50VF2/3 operator, the speed is factory set at 2 foot per second (2 ft/s). To change the speed, you will need to access the Installer Menu.

• SP 2 sets the 50VF2/3 speed to approximately 2 ft/s.

• SP 3 sets the 50VF2/3 speed to approximately 3 ft/s.

Refer to Emergency Fast Operate (EFO) in SlideDriver 50VF-series on page 27.

• SP 0 and SP 1 are not used. (If you change the setting to 0 or 1, the operator will not run.)

emerGency faSt Operate (efO) in SLidedriver 50vf-SerieS

To enable the Emergency Fast Operate option on a SlideDriver 50VF-series operator, you need to program the Smart Touch Controller by taking the following steps:

NOTE: When you are in programming mode the buttons on the keypad change from Open, Close, and Stop to Previous, Next, and Select. Refer to Menu Mode Navigation on page 42.

1. Make sure the operator is turned ON and a Run mode status (example, GATE OPEN) appears on the Smart Touch Controller, which indicates the machine is operational.

2. Press the Menu button twice to access the User Menu.

3. Press and hold the Reset button and then the Open button. Hold the buttons for two seconds and then release both buttons.

4. Press Next until the Emergency Close (OC 0)appears on the display.

The Emergency Fast Close on the 50VF-series is designed for a constant hold function, such as a push-button device that is held for the duration of gate travel. To operate properly, the device must be connected to Terminal 23 on the Smart Touch Controller and a +24VDC terminal on the Power Supply Board.

When the connections are made, the constant hold signal transmitted to the Smart Touch Controller activates the close function. The gate closes at a higher speed than usual. Photo eyes, vehicle loop inputs, and other safety devices (such as external entrapment protection sensors) are ignored.

Entrapment Protection

Effective January 12th, 2016 UL 325 Standard of Safety requires all automated gate operators be able to monitor for entrapment protection sensors. Before gate movement occurs, the UL 325 compliant HySecurity

gate operator veries that the external entrapment protection sensors are connected and fully functional.

The site designer or installer must determine which external entrapment protection sensors will be installed

with the gate operator to create a UL 325 compliant installation site.

The following bullet points highlight how your automated gate system sites can monitor sensors (external

entrapment protection sensors) using HySecurity gate operators:

• Normally Closed (NC) sensors - Installing Normally Closed output sensors. External entrapment protection NC sensors are “monitored” by HySecurity gate operator software.

• Build Year (BY) - An added menu item distinguishes between pre-2016 manufacturing dates and UL 325 - 2016 manufacturing dates. Build Year (BY) is a factory-setting. Build Year 2 (BY 2) is the default for all HySecurity gate operators indicating a manufacturing date of 2016 in the serial number.

Replacement controller boards for existing sites allow for a Build Year setting of 1 (BY 1, pre-2016).

• Independent Sensor Inputs - The edge, photo eye and photo eye COM inputs on the Smart Touch Controller (STC) have been re-labeled. The same wiring connections become three independent methods for easy entrapment sensor conguration and normally closed outputs. Refer to the tables in the front of this manual.

NOTICE: To enable fully automatic operation, the gate operator requires a MINIMUM of one external entrapment protection sensor to monitor potential entrapment zones in either the open or close direction of travel.

Visit www.hysecurity.com/gatesafety for more information on UL 325 standards and gate safety.

manufacturer’S reSpOnSiBiLity

• Build into the gate operator a means of detecting an obstruction or an inherent entrapment detection sensor

• Monitor input from external entrapment detection sensors

• Provide warning signs and an installation manual which, if followed, will result in a UL 325 compliant installation

Pressure Relief Valve – All Hydraulic Operators:

• Limits hydraulic system pressure

• Bypasses uid to tank when set-point exceeded

• Bypassed uid triggers the IES

NOTICE: Pressure relief valve adjustments establish the threshold for the Inherent Entrapment Sensor (IES). The optimal pressure setting produces uniform gate travel and trips the IES when the gate encounters an obstruction.

Inherent Entrapment Sensor System – Hydraulic Operators (IES)

The IES sensor:

• Is a normally closed pressure switch on the pump manifold

• Senses uid ow. High pressure spikes above pressure relief valve setting trigger gate obstruction

notication

• Ignores rst second of operation to preclude false trips due to starting pressure spike

An open contact:

• During gate movement signals the Smart Touch Controller to place gate operator into SAFE mode

• While the gate is not operating will generate ERROR 2 (ERR2) - disconnected IES

NOTE: A second open contact, in either direction of travel, will lock the gate operator and ENTRAPMENT MODE (ENTR) appears on the display.

tHe inHerent entrapment SenSOr (ieS)

The IES on HySecurity gate operators is an entrapment sensor that is required by UL 325 as a Type “A” detection sensor. It is tripped through software programming OR hydraulic pressure settings. It does not function solely on its own accord and must be connected to the Smart Touch Controller. The sensitivity and response of the IES when tripped is factory set, but can be adjusted through the Installer Menu items:

• SE (Inherent Sensor sensitivity)

• SS (Inherent Sensor function)

• SR (IES reverse to open)

Setting Options

(Bold – Factory Settings)

Description

Adjusts the sensitivity of the internal inherent entrapment sensor (IES). Available settings are 1 to 9 with 9 being the least sensitive. HySecurity strongly recommends that you avoid setting the IES sensitivity higher than 6. Note: Adjust pressure relief valve on hydraulic operators for security and gate impact purposes prior to changing IES sensitivity. Refer to the operator’s manual for steps involved in adjusting the pressure relief valve setting.

A setting of 0, stops the gate and then reverses its direction of travel for 2 seconds. To stop gate travel with no reversal, the optional setting 1 can be selected if the gate operator is at a Usage Class IV

site and assigned a UC 4 classication.

The default setting is a 2-second duration reversal if the inherent sensor is triggered. The optional setting of 0 will cause the gate to reopen fully if triggered while closing.

HOW SOftWare HandLeS mOnitOrinG externaL entrapment prOtectiOn SenSOrS

HySecurity gate operators use software to control gate movement, contacts, and accessories. The changeover in 2016 to monitoring sensors has been a simple process.

• Build Year is a new Installer Menu item in the Smart Touch Controllers versions h4.50 (and higher).

• New labels show where Edge, Photo Eye Open and Photo Eye Closed have changed to “SENSOR” inputs. You can program the type of sensor wired to one of those inputs. See table below.

• Installer Menu items, PC and GC (Photo eye output and edge sensor output) which used to default to Normally Open (NO) have been converted to Normally Closed (NC) contacts so the software can

detect the presence and proper operation of external entrapment protection sensors.

NOTE: Three inputs for external entrapment protection sensors are available on the HySecurity gate operator controller. New silk screen controller boards are on order, but until they are ready for shipment, labels will be overlaid on the board to indicate terminology adaptations.

Table 4 indicates how the edge and photo eye inputs have been renamed to generic “sensor” inputs. They are

interchangeable and congurable. The software must know what type of sensor is wired to SENSOR 1, 2, and 3

BEFORE it will allow gate travel.

externaL entrapment prOtectiOn SenSOrS: WHat tHe inStaLLer needS tO dO

NOTE: All HySecurity gate operators, indicating a manufacturing date of 2016 in the serial number, will have the Build Year set to 2. A Build Year of 2 (BY 2) indicates that your gate operator is prepared to monitor for external entrapment protection sensors. The Build Year setting appears in the system scroll on the gate operator display. The gate operator will not automatically cycle

the gate unless an indication that the appropriate number of external entrapment protection sensors are connected and operational.

The normally closed (NC) entrapment protection sensors wired to the Controller’s SENSOR inputs are

monitored using HySecurity software. Prompts appear in the display requesting specic congurations based

on the gate operator type.

Table 5: Installer Menu Settings for SENSOR Inputs illustrates what options are available for the HySecurity

Controller’s congurable inputs. What used to be inputs labeled: Edge, Photo Eye Open, Photo Eye Close,

and Edge COM now become:

SENSOR 1 SENSOR 2 SENSOR 3 SENSOR COM

CAUTION

All external entrapment protection sensors must be wired to the SENSOR COM terminal for power and

monitoring purposes. The three SENSOR inputs are interchangeable and congurable. For example, it doesn’t

matter whether you wire a normally closed photo eye sensor or edge sensor to the SENSOR 1, 2, or 3 input. However, due to monitoring requirements, each SENSOR input (1, 2, and 3) can only accept one NC sensor output connection.

Assess Your Gate Site.

Design your gate installation so entrapment zones are kept to a minimum, and then install

your HySecurity gate operator.

NOTICE: UL 325 Standard of Safety provides the MINIMUM safety standards. Site, gate hardware usage, and other conditions may dictate the use of additional safety designs/components. It is up to the gate system designer and installer to assess appropriate safety design and components above and beyond minimum UL 325 and ASTM F2200 standards. Always check your local area codes and comply with all regulations.

Install NC sensors.

Install contact and non-contact sensors (edge sensors and photo eyes) for all entrapment zones. HySecurity gates monitor normally

NOTE: When installing wired edge sensors, the wired edge must be connected to an interface module with an NC output. See Wiring HySecurity Sensors: Smart Touch on page 109. For wireless edge sensors, no interface module is required. Wireless edge sensors need the wireless gate links which include a transmitter and receiver.

GATE STOPPED

Highly sophisticated software provides three different modes of operation: run, program, and fault. How to navigate using the Smart Touch Controller (STC) keypad, interpret status display codes and program the operator is found in this section.

Keep your operator current with the latest software version. If your gate operator was manufactured in 2016 (or later), it must monitor external entrapment protection sensors to be compliant with UL 325 - 2016 Standard

of Safety.

initiaL Setup

Once you have completed the installation, attached the wired accessories and turned the power ON, you’re ready to program the operator. Two different approaches exist:

• Connect a laptop computer to the serial (RS-232) port, check for the most current software version and then set the operator

menu congurations via the S.T.A.R.T software.

NOTE: Use a laptop computer at your place of business to conveniently download the free START software and most current software version from www.hysecurity.com before heading out into the eld. This makes it easy to adjust settings using a laptop.

• Manually navigate through the User and Installer Menus using the STC keypad. The instructions for performing this second option are provided in this section.

underStandinG tHe diSpLay and keypad

The STC display and keypad provide access to the operator’s sophisticated software and functionality.

Three different operational modes exist:

• Run Mode – gate is operational, awaiting commands.

• Menu Mode – motor disengages and operator commands are ignored. Data entry, menu navigation, and menu selection can be

accomplished via the keypad or through a START software connection

using the RS-232 port.

• Fault Mode – alerts, faults, or errors appear on the display. Some errors or faults can be reset with the Reset button while more serious faults require additional troubleshooting. Fault mode indicates a need for diagnosis and resolution. Refer to Troubleshooting on page 87.

The keypad lets you navigate, change, or clear the information in the display menus. The singular use of these keys is dependent on the operator mode. The buttons with text above and below have two functions. Use these buttons to enter operating commands or navigate through the User and Installer Menus.

USAGE CLASS

The Run Mode displays appear static when the operator is ready and waiting for a run command. When

the display is ashing GATE OPENING or GATE CLOSING, a command has been received and the barrier

gate is in motion. The command may come from a variety of sources: a card reader, push-button remote, or recognition of a vehicle passing over a loop detector. In all cases, the operator “runs” the motor when it receives an operational command.

Three displays indicate the position or status of the gate. The keypad entry used to access the User or Installer menus, begins at one of these Run Mode displays.

in front of the software version number. The software version can also appear when you cycle power. Before contacting Technical Support, know the software version on your gate operator and have the gate operator serial number available.

Check Time and Date

An easy way to determine if your operator is set for the correct date and time zone can be accomplished by

taking the following steps:

1. While in Run mode (gate status appears in the display), press and hold the STOP button.

The date appears DD/MM, and then the time HH:MM.

2. If you need to change the time zone, refer to the Set Clock “CL” item in the User Menu. Refer to User Menu: Table 6 on page 46.

uSer menu

The User Menu consists of several items which can be modied using the Smart Touch Controller keypad.

Access:

Pressing the Menu button, at one of the static gate status displays, causes the operator status displays to scroll

past, stop and display the rst user menu item.

When the CT, Close Timer (or HC, Hold to Close) display appears, it means you have accessed the User Menu. The Close Timer display is the rst in a cyclical series of User Menu displays.

NOTE: To access the User Menu, the operator must be in Run Mode. To bypass the operator status displays, press the Menu button twice.

Keep the setting at 0 if a hard-wired, push-button control device is being used. Refer to HC. NOTE: When the Hold to Close is set to 1 or more seconds, the Close Timer display does not appear and HC 1 becomes the User Menu entry display.

Set to 0 to produce a gate closure when a momentary signal is transmitted. Set to 1 if a constant hold to close signal, such as a

push button control, is being used. A setting of 1 also

deactivates the automatic close timer and causes its menu to disappear. The Hold to Close replaces the Close Timer display as the User Menu entry display.

NOTE: To comply with UL 325 Type D protection, set HC to 1. Type D UL 325 compliance means no

automatic closing device, such as a timer, loop sensor, or similar device shall not be employed.

Over 300 events can be logged before the software begins overwriting the existing history. See Access the Event Log through the User Menu on page 93.

Intended for highly secure facilities. Set to 1, the operator sounds the 3-second “warn before operate” buzzer alarm and initiates a closure if the gate is forced open and the closed limit switch disengages. The motor starts to secure the gate. If the gate does not fully close within 4s, the motor turns off and the buzzer sounds for 30 seconds. The

display shows ALERT 1 - FORCED OPEN.

Set to 1, the operator sounds the 3-second “warn before operate” buzzer alarm and initiates an open command if the gate is forced, or drifts, off the open limit switch. The motor starts to reopen the gate. The motor runs for a maximum of 4s and, if the gate is not fully open at the end of this period, the buzzer sounds

for 10s. The display shows ALERT 2 - DRIFT CLOSED.

Set to 1, the operator serves as an aide in photo eye transmitter/receiver alignment. See Photo Eye Alignment Feature on page 86. NOTE: If the operator doesn’t run when the power switch is initially turned ON, check the alignment of the photo eye and all the photo eye connections.

To adjust the hour, minute, day, or month to a different time zone, select 1. Once the clock is set, the

display returns to the 0 setting. An accurate time zone reects in the time stamp and event logs. See Access

the Event Log through the User Menu on page 95.

Adjusts the contrast of the display. Available settings

from low contrast 0 to 9 high contrast, with a factory default setting of 5. NOTE: Not used or available with the 32 character display.

View the Event Log to see up to 300 events. All

events are time/date stamped and recorded. For more information, see Access the Event Log through the User Menu on page 93.

Set to 0, the STC records pertinent operator events such as faults, errors, or menu manipulation. When experiencing intermittent problems, set this item to 1 to record all operator open and close events, in addition to the normal alert, fault and error logs. This parameter automatically resets to the default 0 (off) after 24 hours.

NOTE: A System Address (SA) value in the installer

Menu must be set before the Set Password display appears in the User Menu. To enter a password (up to 80 characters) for network connectivity, select 1. You can use the menu navigation buttons to enter the password. When the password is set, the display returns to the 0 setting.

If the close photo eye is triggered, the default setting is non-reversal while the gate is traveling in the close direction. If the

obstruction is cleared within 5 seconds, gate

travel continues. If you set the gate operator

to optional setting EC 1, when the close

photo eye is triggered, the gate pauses and reverses it's direction for a 2-second interval, and then resumes moving in the close direction if the photo eye clears within

5 seconds. (See exception for barrier arms.) A setting of EC 2 causes the gate to reverse

and travel full open when triggered.

NOTE: In software versions h5.56 and h4.55

or higher the following changes occurred: Swing Gates: When photo eye close is active, the open command is operational.

All Usage Class 3 or 4 gate operators: As

in swing gates, an active photo eye close will no longer prevent an Open command.

If the open photo eye is triggered, the default setting is non-reversal while the gate is traveling in the open direction. When

triggered, with the optional setting of EO 1,

the gate pauses and reverses it's direction for a 2-second interval, and then resumes moving in the open direction if the photo

eye clears within 5 seconds.

The default setting is to reopen fully if the edge sensor is triggered while closing. The

optional setting of GR 1 sets the gate to a

2-second reversal if triggered while closing.

If the inherent sensor is triggered, the default setting reverses the gate travel for a 2-second duration. The optional setting of SR 0 will cause the gate to reopen fully if triggered while closing.

SettinG tHe cLOSe timer

The Close Timer assigns how many seconds will pass before the gate operator initiates closure of a fully opened gate after all open commands and reversing sensor inputs have ceased and loops cleared. It is

recommended that every gate operator have the close timer set to a specic number of seconds (for example, 5 seconds) unless a hard-wired closing device is connected to the gate operator, such as a “hold to close”

push button station.

To adjust the time (1 to 99 seconds) it takes before the operator initiates gate closure, take the following steps:

1. At a gate status display, press the Menu button twice. This accesses the User Menu and the Close Timer display appears.

NOTE: If you want gate personnel to operate the gate with the Hold to Close feature found in some push

button stations, then set the Hold to Close menu item to 1. When the Hold to Close menu item is active (set to 1), the Close Timer menu item is unavailable.

2. Use the Select, and then Next or Previous buttons to navigate and change the number of seconds appearing on the display. Refer to Menu Mode Navigation on page 42.

3. To exit the User Menu, press the Menu button. The gate status appears in the display indicating you have returned to Run Mode.

teSt tHe OperatOr

Complete the installation by testing the operation of the gate.

NOTE: The operator must be turned on and in Run mode. A Run mode display appears on the STC. If a Run mode status does not

appear on the display, press Reset. If an error, alert, or fault appears on the display, refer to the Troubleshooting section to learn how to clear the display and return to Run mode.

1. Press Open to open the gate.

2. Test the operator.

• Cycle the gate a few times by pressing the Close and Open buttons.

• If installed for emergency fast operation, test the EMERGENCY CLOSE using the constant hold

device. Observe the travel speed of the gate when you press and hold the Emergency Close

button. It will close a second or two faster than normal operation and ignore any photo eye, vehicle loop, or other safety sensor inputs.

NOTE: If additional accessories are to be added, read about STC Inputs & Wiring on page 57.

inteGratinG WitH Security SyStemS and Hynet™ GateWay

HySecurity hydraulic gate operators provides a 2-wire, serial interface (RS-485 connection) which allows remote access to one or more operators. With software protocols provided by HySecurity, bi-directional status updates and control commands are easily integrated with a central controller (computer or server), which becomes the primary (master) to the connected operators. Up to 31 physical operators can be polled from the central master command station. Reset requests, gate control, gate status, and gate faults can be monitored and information can be retrieved from the central command station.

The RS-485 interface is also used to communicate with the HyNet Gateway, a web-enabled interface. To view the user guide and quick start information regarding HyNet Gateway SFP 4/1, go to the HySecurity website,

uSer reLayS – prOGramminG prOcedure

The Smart Touch Controller is able to interface with many types of external devices through the use of three user programmable output relays: two mechanical relays (User Relay 1 and User Relay 2), and one solid state relay (User 3) which is used most often

for connection to ashing devices.

All of the user relay functions identied and described in the table

below are accessible in the Installer Menu (R1 x, R2 x, R3 x) selections.

NOTE: A setting of zero disables a User Relay. The User Relays will operate

normally to 18VDC. Below 18VDC, alert notication occurs. On Crash products

User 3 relay is unavailable. It is pre-wired for the LED lights.

Use the STC buttons to program the user relays according to the following steps:

1. Select the relay you wish to use through the Installer Menu. See Installer Menu: Table 7 on page 49. For example: R1 13 (RELAY LOGIC 1) or R2 15 (RELAY LOGIC 2).

2. Select the appropriate function (1 through 28) by changing the display to the associated number listed in the table. Use the Select, Next and Previous buttons to make your selection. Refer to Menu Mode Navigation on page 42.

1 Close limit output Output can be used as an interlock signal to another

operator’s interlock input, or simply to indicate that the gate is secure. The relay is “off” when the gate is closed. The relay energizes when the fully-closed limit is released. (Any open command energizes the relay.)

2 Close limit pulse output Used in a sequenced system to command a second machine

to close. Generates a brief pulsed output that occurs when the close limit is triggered.

3 Open limit output Indicates a full-open position. This output becomes active

when an open-limit is triggered and deactivates when the open-limit is released or a close command is received.

4 Open limit pulse output Used in a sequenced gate system to command a second

machine to open. Generates a brief pulsed output that occurs when the open limit is triggered.

5 Warn before/during operate output Controls an external warning device. This output operates at

the same time as the internal warn before operate buzzer.

6 Gate Lock output Controls external solenoid or magnetic locks. In both

directions of travel, this output is activated about 7/10ths of a second before the operator starts moving the gate and remains active while moving. Output remains active, for a few seconds, after stopping.

7 Gate forced open output Activated if the gate is forced off the closed limit switch and

the operator is not able to restore the gate to full closed position within four seconds.

NOTE: This alarm resets itself in 30 seconds.

8 Gate open too long output Controls an external device. Activates when the gate is open

longer than the user-selected period of time. Adjustable from 0 seconds with 15 to 135s selectable delay timeframes in 30s increments.

NOTE: TL - Open TIME ALERT adjustments can be made in the Installer Menu. The TL Installer Menu display only appears when using this relay.

9 Safety Mode Alert output Controls an external device. Activated when the system is

in Safety Mode or Entrapment Mode. Safety Mode occurs when the gate encounters an obstruction. Entrapment Mode means the gate is stopped. Entrapment mode occurs if the inherent entrapment sensor triggers while the system is in Safety Mode.

10 Entrapment Mode Alert output Controls an external device. Activated only when in the

Entrapment Mode.

11 Unauthorized Vehicle Entry output

(Tail gate alert)

12 Outside Obstruction Vehicle

Bi-Parting & Dual Gate Systems

Conguring two or more operators to work together as an interlocked pair (Primary/Secondary or Sally Port) or sequenced gate system is easy to do with the Smart Touch Controller. There is no need to order a special model or any adapters. The area of the board marked Dual Gate employs a 3-wire, RS-485 serial port for communication between the operators.

NOTE: RS-485 communication is available for networked security systems. For additional information, refer to Connecting Sequenced Gates on page 70.

cOnnectinG an interLOcked pair (duaL Gate)

The Smart Touch Controller (STC) provides dual gate connections and programming features to connect a pair of gate operators in a Primary/Secondary or interlocked Sally Port conguration. The software establishes the communication protocols when wiring the two gate operators. A Primary/Secondary pair of operators can be set for different open/close timing sequences and Sally Port gates are often used at correctional facilities. In Sally Port congurations, one operator cannot open unless the other is fully closed. To learn how to connect the wiring between operators, review the wire diagram on the next page.

NOTE: Both SlideDriver gate systems need to have compatible software versions installed on their Smart Touch Controllers.

Bi-parting SlideDrivers

Dual Gate Wiring Connections

CAUTION

To connect an interlocked pair of gate operators, simply follow the steps below.

1. As shown in the Wire Diagram, connect a shielded communications cable to the DUAL GATE inputs in each operator. The inputs are located near the base of the Smart Touch Controller. Be sure to connect the wires in pairs to the same terminal ports (A-A, B-B, COM-COM) on both operators.

2. Attach a ring terminal to the shield wire and connect it to the Smart Touch Controller’s convenient ground screw.

Connect the ground shield wire to only one operator, not both. Use only 18-20 gauge twisted and shielded triple wire. To operate properly, both Smart Touch Controllers must be using the same software version.

Wire Diagram: Interlocked Pair of Operators wired to DUAL GATE Inputs

Dual or Sequenced Gates: Power, Software & Accessory Requirements

When installing an interlocked pair, the following must be adhered to:

• An electrical conduit for interconnecting wires must span between the two operators. The interlock (dual gate) communication wires and any low voltage control wires must be installed in a conduit that is separate from the high voltage power cables.

• Complete the installation of both operators as separate machines and verify that their basic functions are correct as solo operators before interconnecting them.

• Be sure both operators are running the same software. The software version can be viewed on the display by pressing the RESET button.

• For up-to-date features, keep the most current software loaded on both gate operators. Software downloads are available at www.hysecurity.com. Make it part of your maintenance routine to check for and install software updates on a regular basis.

• External control inputs (vehicle detectors and external entrapment protection sensors) may be connected to either gate operator in a Primary/Secondary conguration, but in a Sally Port conguration, the external control inputs must be connected to Sally Port A. (Sally Port A being the rst gate to open for incoming trafc. Be sure to designate Sally Port A in the dual gate menu item as 3 (DG 3) and Sally Port B as 4 (DG 4).

NOTE: If using the Hy8Relay, connect it to the dual gate spades on the Primary controller.

Programming a Dual Gate (Interlocked Pair)

Both gate operators must be programmed so they know what function they are to perform as Primary and Secondary or Sally Port A and Sally Port B. (Sally Port A being the rst gate to open for incoming trafc.) The Installer Menu provides the Dual Gate (DG) menu item that sets up the functionality of the gate operators. Access this menu item by taking the following steps:

cOnnectinG Sequenced GateS

CAUTION

Sequenced gates are slightly different than dual or interlocked gates. When two gate operators are connected as sequenced gates, a faster “Trafc Control Gate” operator (i.e. barrier arm or crash wedge) and a slower “Security Gate” operator (slide, swing, or vertical lift gate) operate in sequence to help prevent tailgating or unauthorized entry. Both operators open (Security Gate rst followed by the Trafc Control Gate) and allow a vehicle through, but the faster moving Trafc Control Gate closes quickly once its reset/center loop and all obstruction loops are cleared. Upon reaching its closed limit, the Trafc Control Gate signals the Security Gate to close. Note that all shared vehicle detector loops must be cleared before the Security Gate closes.

NOTE: An emergency open or close overrides the gate sequencing and acts upon both gates simultaneously.

The Smart Touch Controller (STC) provides the sequenced gate connections and programming features, and the STC software establishes the communication protocols when wiring the sequenced gate operators. To learn how to connect the wiring between operators, review the Wire Diagram below.

The operators do not have to be of the same type, but both need to have identical software versions installed on the Smart Touch Controller. For example, a StrongArmCrash M30 can be sequenced with a SlideDriver to provide both personnel security and crash provisions. The inherent STC software integrates seamlessly between operators and software protocols and allows RS-485 communication for networked security systems. Refer to Integrating with Security Systems and HyNet™ Gateway on page 59 for additional information.

Wire Diagram: Sequenced Pair of Operators wired to DUAL GATE Inputs

1. As shown in the wire diagram on page 70, connect a shielded communications cable to the DUAL GATE inputs in each operator. The inputs are located near the base of the Smart Touch Controller. Be sure to connect the wires in pairs to the same terminal ports (A-A, B-B, COM-COM) on both operators.

2. Attach a ring terminal to the shield wire and connect it to the Smart Touch Controller’s convenient ground screw.

NOTE: Connect the ground shield wire to only one operator, not both. Use only 18-20 gauge twisted and shielded triple wire.

Sequenced gates are very similar to dual gates (interlocked pair) in their Power, Software, and Accessory Requirements. To review the installation site requirements, refer to Bi-Parting & Dual Gate Systems on page 67.

Vehicle Detector

Installation and Logic

HySecurity recommends that vehicle detectors be used for free exit and obstruction sensing logic only. The exception is in parking or barrier arm applications where detectors may also be used to close the gate. In applications employing our swing, vertical lift, or sliding gate operators, closing logic cannot be used except when the anti-tailgate logic is employed.

Vehicle detector functions (OR, IR, HD, DL ) are congurable through the Installer Menu: Table 7 on page 49.

Anti-TailGate Mode (Closing Logic)

The Detector Logic (DL) installer menu item lets you set the anti-tailgate mode. This menu item works in conjunction with the Close Timer (CT) when the vehicle detector is triggered. If you plan to use the antitailgate feature, check the time delay aspect of the Close Timer (CL) setting.

The four selectable modes for DL are as follows:

Mode 1 (Default): An input from either the Free Exit, Outside Obstruction Loop, Inside Obstruction Loop, or the Center Loop will hold the gate open, reset the close timer, and ignore all close inputs. The close timer begins to count down only after all vehicle detectors are clear and no other open command is present.

Mode 2: The close timer does not wait for vehicle detectors to clear, but instead it starts counting down as soon as the open limit is reached.

Mode 3: When both inside and outside obstruction loops are simultaneously active, the gate will close immediately (unless another open command is present) once all vehicle detectors are no longer sensing active loops (i.e. vehicle loops are clear).

Mode 4: Full anti-tailgate logic includes Mode 3 functions. In addition, the gate will stop during the opening cycle when both OOLD & IOLD are tripped simultaneously. When the OOLD & IOLD loops are cleared, the gate closes immediately. The OOLD & IOLD can be individually set so that, if tripped while closing, the gate may either, pause only or reverse to reopen. The free exit detector input is ignored while the gate is closing.

NOTICE: Using any vehicle detector logic mode other than Mode 1 (default) requires that all the loops be placed with the geometry and spacing as shown in the loop layout drawings. The detector Modes 3 and 4 require use of separate inner and outer obstruction detectors. Mode 4 is not available in HydraWedge SM50 or gate operators functioning with HydraSupply XL.

TailGate Alert

User Relay 11 is available for notication devices. If a vehicle is tailgating, and a asher or audio device is

connected to User Relay 11, the relay will be triggered by the tailgating vehicle crossing the loops.

veHicLe detectOr inStaLLatiOn: Hy-5a

The Smart Touch Controller provides an interface for up to four different vehicle detector functions.

NOTE: Standard box type 11 pin (24 VDC or 24 VAC) vehicle detectors may be connected in the traditional manner, but HySecurity

HY-5A mini-detector modules plug directly into the Smart Touch Controller, making eld installation much faster and enhancing

performance.

The HY-5A detector communicates with the Smart Touch Controller microprocessor to achieve the following

benets:

• Loop frequency is automatically set and monitored by the Smart Touch Controller.

• Best operating frequency for each loop is automatically selected.

• Cross-talk between multiple loops is impossible.

• Very low power draw, which is important for maximum UPS capability during a power failure or for solar applications.

• Loop frequency and call strength can be reported on the Smart Touch Controller display.

• Loop malfunctions are stored by the Smart Touch Controller and appear in code on the display.

NOTE: It is not mandatory to use two separate vehicle detectors for inner and outer obstruction detection;

however, the benets of using the two HY-5A detectors are great. Several new features are possible, such as

second vehicle tailgating detection, loitering alert, and selectable non-reversing options.

HY-5A Vehicle Detector Module

Four vehicle detector inputs (terminals: 8, 10, 11, and 12) exist on the Smart Touch Controller, as well as the four direct plug ins (FREE EXIT, INSIDE OBSTR, OUTSIDE OBSTR, SHADOW/RESET) for the HY-5A modules. Refer to Overview of the STC and Power Supply Board on page 58.

The vehicle detector input functions are as follows:

• Free Exit Loop Detector - Opens a fully closed gate.

• Outside Obstruction Loop Detector (Out Obs Loop) - Triggered by the outside (public side) vehicle detector loop

• Inside Obstruction Loop Detector (In Obs Loop) - Triggered by the inside (secure side) vehicle detector loop

• Center/Reset/Shadow Loop Detector - On barrier arm gates, prevents closure when active. On swing gates, prevents gate from opening or closing when the vehicle detector is active.

NOTE: Use of any combination of HY-5A detectors and box detectors is acceptable. On occasion, multiple obstruction detectors may be mandatory. For example, an area greater than 200 square feet (61 square meters) of vehicle loop cannot be connected to any one detector because the sensitivity becomes inadequate.

cOnnectinG Hy-5a veHicLe detectOrS

NOTE: For illustrations and detailed instructions, refer to the literature supplied with the HY-5A vehicle detectors. The installation instructions are also available online at www.hysecurity.com

Install each HY-5A vehicle detector module, one at a time using the following steps:

1. Turn off the AC power switch on the Control Box.

Squared off end of standoff

2. Insert the locking end of the two white plastic standoffs into the mounting holes on the detector.

3. Plug the detector into the appropriate socket along the right edge of the Smart Touch Controller. Be careful to align the six detector pins into the socket correctly (the screws for tightening the terminals should face toward the board), and then snap the standoffs into the holes in the control box.

4. Route the loop wires through the holes provided in the control box and connect the loop leads to the two terminals on the HY-5A detector. Tighten the terminal screws securely.

5. To enable the detector, turn on power. The detector will immediately tune if it is connected to a vehicle loop. Make sure no cars or other metal objects are over the loop.

6. Repeat Steps 1 through 5 for each HY-5A detector.

7. If the detector module is unplugged after it is enabled, a communications alert (ALERT 10) will be triggered. If the fault is not resolved, an error message, ERROR 3 “Detector Failed” is displayed.

NOTE: If there is any detector fault, the gate operator functions as if the detector is triggered.

Pressing the RESET button:

• Clears any errors

• Tunes the detectors on connected loops

• Un-installs any detectors that have been removed

8. The Smart Touch Controller automatically governs frequency selection for all HY-5A detector modules.

This simplies installation and guarantees that there is no cross-talk

between multiple loops. The frequency and call level can also be manually selected; if this is required, refer to the appropriate loop

set ( ELD, ILD, OLD, RLD) in the Installer Menu: Table 7 on page 49.

9. Sensitivity is the only adjustment available on the detector itself.

Rotary dial

Generally, sensitivity does not need to be increased unless the loop is large or there are multiple loops connected to one detector.

NOTE: Do not exceed more than 200 square feet (61 square meters) of loop area to one detector. The detection height is roughly 2/3’s the size of the shortest side of the loop.

If required, adjust the sensitivity using the rotary dial. The factory default setting is 1.

0 = Low with boost* 4 = Low without boost

1 = Normal with boost* 5 = Normal without boost

2 = Medium with boost* 6 = Medium without boost

3 = High with boost* 7 = High without boost

NOTE: *A boost feature is applied for settings 0 through 3. Boost increases the sensitivity during a call and is useful for maintaining continuous detection if the signal becomes weak (such as with tractor-trailer trucks). Sensitivity settings 4 through 7 are the same as 0 through 3, but without the boost feature.

10. Set the loop congurations in the Installer Menu. Display settings include, DT, OR, IR, DL.

11. Set the vehicle detector logic (DL).

View Call Level in Real Time

1. Enter the Installer Menu and access the loop menu item associated with the HY-5A detector:

Exit=ELD, Inside=ILD, Outside=OLD, or Reset/Shadow/Center=SLD/CLD).

2. Press SELECT and change the menu item to 2, Call Level. For example: ILD2 CALL LEVEL

3. To exit the Installer Menu and return to Run mode, press Menu.

Knowing the strength of a vehicle detector (call level) is valuable because it provides information about how well the vehicle loop is actually “seeing” a passing vehicle. The HY-5A detector has the ability to read call levels in real time on a scale of 1 to 7. A call level of 7 indicates the loop is detecting the passing vehicle extremely well and is highly sensitive. If you receive a call level reading of 0 to 2, when a vehicle passes over the loop, you’ll want to test the loop to make sure is functioning correctly. If the test outcome is good and all the loops are operating properly, you may need to adjust the HY-5A sensitivity dial, so the call level reads in the 5 to 6 range.

inStaLLinG Standard 11-pin BOx type veHicLe detectOrS

If standard 11-pin box type vehicle detectors are to be used, perform the following procedure.

If there is sufcient space, install the sockets in the control box; if not, then install them in a separate external

housing. Carefully consider your peripheral connections. Any peripheral device required for safe gate operation should be attached to 24VDC in case of an AC power outage.

NOTE: Box detectors with relays require ve times more power than HY-5A detectors. One HY-5A detector draws about 0.005A.

Consider HY-5A vehicle detectors for DC and Solar powered sites.

1. Connect 24 Volt power to the detector. Connect Pin No. 1 to a 24VAC or 24VDC terminal and Pin No. 2 to common.

2. Connect output Pin No. 6 to the Common Bus and output Pin No. 5 to one of the four detector terminal inputs (depending upon the detector function required) on the Smart Touch Controller.

If multiple detectors are used, route the power wires and common wire from socket to socket (daisy-chaining) rather than individually running each wire to the same location. The only wires that are separate are the output wire to the Smart Touch Controller and the detector loop input wires.

Always keep the detector loop wires well twisted beyond the area of the loop. The lead in portion sealed in a saw cut does not need to be twisted so long as the wires are encapsulated in loop sealant and cannot move.

A monitored connection tests for the presence and correct operation of the photo eyes (and other monitored sensors) prior to each gate activation. The monitored connection prevents gate operation if an entrapment protection sensor is missing or any fault is present.

Sensors, such as gate edges and photoelectric beams, must be installed to protect against entrapment. These external entrapment protection sensors are required for the gate installation to be in compliance with the 2016, UL 325 Standard of Safety (6th Edition).

NOTICE: UL 325 Standard of Safety provides the MINIMUM safety standards. Site, gate hardware usage, and other conditions may dictate the use of additional safety designs/components. It is up to the gate system designer and installer to assess appropriate safety design and components above and beyond minimum UL 325 and ASTM F2200 Standard of Safety. Always check your local area codes and comply with all regulations.

NOTE: To enable fully automatic operation, this gate operator requires a MINIMUM of one external entrapment protection sensor to monitor potential entrapment zones in either the open or close direction of travel. Visit www.hysecurity.com/gatesafety for more information on UL 325 standards and gate safety.

To learn more about external entrapment protection devices or to learn how to temporarily supply power to the sensors that are wired to the gate operator, review External Entrapment Protection Sensors: What the Installer Needs to Do on page 31 and Supply Power to the Sensors on page 34.

Plan to integrate photo eyes (photoelectric sensors) in your site plan. Photo eyes are wired to the Controller and require low voltage conduit to the operator and power supply. Refer to Table 3: External Entrapment Protection Sensors Approved for Use with HySecurity Gate Operators on page iii.

Understand your site requirements and use the layout diagrams available to determine the most appropriate mounting positions for additional photo eyes. The Controller has three sensor inputs.

If there are no other external entrapment protection sensors (typically an edge sensor), then for slide gates, swing gates or any site that must comply with UL 325 monitored entrapment protection regulations, it is highly recommended that at least two photo eyes are installed to serve and reverse the gate in each direction of travel (Open and Close directions).

The two common photoelectric sensor types are thru-beam and retro-reective; each has its advantages.

• A thru-beam sensor is generally more powerful and able to function more reliably in inclement weather.

• A retro-reective sensor (generally less reliable in inclement weather or low visibility) provides convenience due to minimal wiring.

NOTE: In an outdoor environment (because of reduced performance), avoid using a retro-reective sensor to

span a distance greater than 24 feet (7.3 meters).

Compatibility

The UL 325 standard requires that a photoelectric sensor be laboratory tested and “recognized” under UL 325. In order to be compatible with all HySecurity operators, a photo eye must be rated to function from 24 VDC source power.

In addition to the table, a label containing a list of tested and approved external entrapment protection sensors (normally closed contacts) that are compatible with HySecurity gate operators is afxed to every gate operator box shipped from the factory and can be found online at the following public site:

www.hysecurity.com/gatesafety

Installation

Install photo eyes according to the following steps.

1. Locate the photo eye in line of sight to the receiver or reector that is mounted to protect zones of potential entrapment. Refer to site layout on 81.

2. Mount the receivers on the left or right side of the gate operator.

3. Mount the emitters just beyond the travel of the gate.

NOTE: The installation locations are intended for pedestrian detection. If photo eyes are also to be used for vehicular detection, consider (in addition to the low elevation photo eye for cars) installing another photo eye at a height of about 55 inches (140 cm) to detect semi (tractor- trailer) trucks.

Configuration

Congure photo eyes attached to gate operators manufactured in 2016 or beyond according to Wiring HySecurity Sensors: Smart Touch on page 109.

NOTE: HySecurity gate operators, manufactured with 2016 (or later) in the serial number, require Normally Closed output sensors. Some manufacturers label an output as N.O. (normally open), when it is actually an N.C. (normally closed) contact. Review Table 3:

External Entrapment Protection Sensors Approved for Use with HySecurity Gate Operators on page iii

If your gate operator is manufactured prior to 2016 and your gate operator is set to Build Year 1, consider the following:

NOTE: To check the Build Year for your gate operator, press the Menu button. The gate status scroll reveals the Build Year. “Build Year Pre-2016” means the gate operator is

congured for Build Year 1.

1. If the photo eye has an internal switch for setting Light Operate versus Dark Operate, select Light Operate.

2. If the photo eye has a relay output and has both N.O. and N.C. terminals, some experimentation may be required to determine the proper connection because, when its in the Light Operate mode, the output relay is normally energized and releases when the beam is blocked.

3. If the photo eye has a solid-state output, your must choose a sinking-type connection..

Photo Eye Connections: Smart Touch & Smart DC Controllers

NOTE: For examples of wiring diagrams, refer to 109.

Connect the four wires to the receiver and two wires to the emitter according to the following procedure.

1. Obtain the +24 Volt source power at one of the three spade-terminals on the STC Power Supply Board.

2. Obtain the 24 Volt Common from SENSOR COM on the Controller.

3. Obtain the COM from the STC Power Supply Board.

4. Connect the N.C. output to SENSOR 1, 2, or 3.

5. Congure the Installer Menu according to your site sensor set up. Refer to Table 5: Installer Menu Settings for SENSOR Inputs on page 33.

Photo Eye Function

If the gate is stationary, a tripped photo eye will prevent the gate from starting in either direction. If tripped while in motion, the standard function is to pause the gate motion and then automatically restart again if the

photo eye is clear within ve seconds. Optional settings exist in the Installer Menu. Refer to Eye Close Logic

and Eye Open Logic (EC and EO) in the Installer Menu: Table 7 on page 49 for more information.

retro-reflective PHoto eye SyStemS

Correct installation and alignment of a retro-reective photo eye and its reector is important for trouble free

performance. Any system operating at a range greater than 16 feet is more prone to false triggering due to dirty optics, condensation or poor weather. If care is taken in the initial mounting and alignment of the 3-inch

reector, the chance of problems is greatly reduced.

NOTE: Use only through beam photo eyes for a distances greater than 24 feet because the function of a retro-reective photo eye

will be too unreliable.

Taking steps to protect the photo eye and the reector from being exposed to fog and being absolutely

certain the photo eye is perfectly aligned will greatly reduce any false triggering of the system. The ideal

mounting of a retro-reective photo eye is inside an enclosure.

Ideally the reector mount suspends the reector inside a 12-inch long piece of 3-inch PVC conduit. Cut the opening of the PVC conduit at a 45-degree angle to act as a drip shield. Hold the reector against the

backside of the PVC conduit by attaching a 3-inch male connector. DO NOT cement the connector as doing

so makes it difcult to reach the reector for future cleaning.

To create a mounting base, attach a 3-inch aluminum ange (for example, an electric meter hub) to the connector. This whole package can be mounted to any at surface.

Locate the reector in the center of the invisible beam of infrared light to achieve the most sensitive alignment.

The beam center is determined by the following test:

1. While holding the reector in your hand, slowly raise it until the beam is no longer returned and the photo eye trips.

2. Mark this maximum height.

3. Lower your hand and determine the lower limit of the infrared beam by watching for the trip point. Mark this position.

4. Repeat the same procedure for left and right at the center elevation of the beam.

When the four parameters are marked, either:

• Mount the reector in the center of the area outlined

• Realign the eye for the position of the reector.

NOTE: If the photo eye is realigned, be sure to perform the centering test again to verify that the reector is truly in the center.

Some site conditions (for example, dirt or gravel roads) may warrant use of photo eye sensors for vehicle detection. In this type of application, the photo eye pair is connected to vehicle loop terminals on the Controller.

NOTE: A pair of photo eye sensors, used in place of vehicle loops and wired to vehicle loop terminals on the Controller, does not satisfy UL 325 Standard of Safety for “monitored” external entrapment protection. To understand external entrapment protection and how HySecurity equipment monitors sensors, refer to the section titled Entrapment

Protection on page 29.

This layout illustrates a bi-

directional trafc system with

controlled access entry (card reader, radio control, etc.) and photo eyes used for vehicle detecttion. The gate’s closure time is determined by the number of seconds entered in the CLOSE TIMER (CT) User Menu item. The timing to close starts when all photo eyes are clear. The timer is adjustable from 1 to 99 seconds.

Installing Gate Edge Sensors

Public side

A monitored connection tests for the presence and correct operation of the gate edge sensors (and other monitored sensors) prior to gate activation. The monitored connection prevents gate operation if a sensor is missing or any fault is present.

NOTICE: UL 325 Standard of Safety provides the MINIMUM safety standards. Site, gate hardware usage, and other conditions may dictate the use of additional safety designs/components. It is up to the gate system designer and installer to assess appropriate safety design and components above and beyond minimum UL 325 and ASTM F2200 Standard of Safety. Always check your local area codes and comply with all regulations.

Assess your gate site for the most appropriate placement of edge sensors. Plan to integrate contact (gate edge) and non-contact (photo eyes) sensors in your site plan. Sensors are wired to the Controller and require low voltage conduit to the operator and power supply. Refer to Table 3: External Entrapment Protection Sensors Approved for Use with HySecurity Gate Operators on page iii.

To enable fully automatic operation, this gate operator requires a MINIMUM of one external entrapment protection sensor to monitor potential entrapment zones in either the open or close direction of travel. Visit

www.hysecurity.com/gatesafety for more information on UL 325 standards and gate safety.

Compatibility

The UL 325 standard requires that a gate edge sensor be laboratory tested and “recognized” under UL 325. In order to be compatible with all HySecurity operators, a gate edge sensor must be rated to function from 24 VDC source power. For a list of compatible sensors, see Table 3 on page iii.

www.hysecurity.com/gatesafety

Installation

HySecurity gates monitor normally closed (NC) sensors. Wire the NC sensors to SENSOR input terminals (SENSOR 1, SENSOR 2, or SENSOR 3) on the Smart Touch Controller and set the Installer Menu item S1, S2, or S3 to the appropriate setting for the area being monitored.

When using wired edge sensors, the wired edge must be connected to an interface module with an NC output. Miller Edge has marked UL 325 - 2016 compliant edge sensors with blue electrical tape on the output wire. These edge sensors have a 10k Ω resistor that connects to an interface module. The interface module provides the NC output for monitoring purposes. Refer to Wiring HySecurity Sensors: Smart Touch on page

109.

For wireless edge sensors, no interface module is required. Wireless edge sensors need the wireless gate links which include a transmitter and receiver. HySecurity has created kits for all-inclusive shipment.

NOTE: The installation locations are intended for pedestrian detection and safety. The draw in areas and the leading and trailing end of a slide gate are known potential entrapment areas that need to be protected for pedestrian safety.

Gate Edge Function

If the gate is stationary, a tripped gate edge sensor will prevent the gate from starting in either direction. If tripped while in motion, the standard function is to stop the gate movement and, if tripped while closing, automatically re-open fully. An optional setting in the Installer Menu will cause a 2 second reversal if triggered while closing. Refer to Installer Menu: Table 7 on page 49 for more information.

Example: Wired gate edges used with 10K Ω

(8.2K Ω) resistor

Example: Wireless gate link (transmitter &

receiver) used with wireless gate edges

• Stop gate travel (and/or reverse direction of travel)

HYSECURITY

GATE STOPPED

Refer to Troubleshooting Codes: Table 9 on page 90 for details concerning

identication and description of Alerts, Faults and Errors.

Overriding a tripped sensor or fault condition on a HySecurity gate operator with monitored entrapment sensors requires a 2-step process:

• Press Open or Close momentarily. Audible beeps in quick succession

indicate tripped sensors or fault conditions.

• Within 5 seconds of hearing the beeps, apply constant hold pressure to

override the tripped sensor or fault. The gate operator runs while pressure is maintained to actuating

device (examples include, Push button Open, Push button Close, Open Partial or Keypad Open/

Close), or a limit is reached, or another sensor trips.

NOTE: A qualied technician may troubleshoot the operator with the aid of the information and procedures that follow. If it is necessary to call a distributor for assistance, be sure to have the model and serial numbers available. Other helpful information is the job name, approximate installation date, and service records of any recently-performed maintenance work.

TIP: On AC-powered gate operators, the active status of each input on the Smart Touch Controller is indicated

by its associated lit LED. However, an exception exists in the case of external entrapment protection sensors. The LEDs next to the sensor connections will be lit when no power is being applied. For more information, see

Supply Power to the Sensors on page 34.

The system monitors the 24V control voltage in lieu of line voltage. Low incoming line voltage will cause low control voltage. Verify that the control transformer is connected properly, (white – not used, red for 208V, orange for 230V and blue for 460V). Refer to Control

Transformer Connections (Non-UPS) on page 19. As the motor starts, check the line voltage with a meter that has

min/max hold capability. If the line voltage drops more than 10% below nominal (187 on 208 VAC, 207 on 230 VAC, or 416 on 460 VAC) the voltage is dropping too much and must be corrected. Generally, this requires larger wire size. On 3-Phase operators, check each leg to ground to make sure it is balanced.

If the line voltage is not dropping below these limits, check the 24V AC and DC power at the power supply. Voltages less than 20V indicate an overloaded or failing transformer or power supply board. Remove the loads until the fault is found.

DC operators only. Appears when the 24 VDC power drops too low,

disabling the operator which helps prevent damage to the batteries

from excessive discharge. Verify the AC power is present at the charger, the charger is on and charging (Red LED is illuminated). The charger should shut off (Green LED) when the batteries charge to 29.0 VDC. If the batteries cannot “hold a charge” replace them.

AC power is shut off at the source (breaker) or is not connected. The operator’s AC power switch is turned off or the main circuit breaker has tripped.

• Have a licensed electrician check the wiring.

• Connect AC power to the operator.

• Reset circuit breaker at the electrical panel.
