INTRODUCING SWINGSMART DC

Thank you for purchasing our premium SwingSmart DC™ 20 swing gate operator. At HySecurity® Gate, Inc., we pride ourselves on quality and a number of unparalleled user benets:
Robust - An especially strong twin channel steel chassis and adjustable taper clutch greatly improves the ability for SwingSmart to resist damage from vehicle hits on the gate. The components on the Smart DC Controller are protected by opto-isolators which shield them from power surges and lightning strikes.
Power - A variable speed control board supplies a powerful, continuous 24V DC motor which drives a 600:1 gearbox providing variable speeds. The electronics, motor and gear box are rated to operate in very broad temperatures that range from -13°F to 158°F (-25°C to 70°C). SwingSmart DC is rated for gates up to 20 feet long and 1,300 pounds.
Finesse - A variable rate of gate acceleration and deceleration, dependent upon gate weight and length, assures very smooth handling.
Menus and User relays - The Smart DC Controller has a multitude of menu items that allows installer configuration of gate function and two programmable user relays. Independent adjustment for open and close gate speeds - An easy-to-use menu allows the installer to vary the open and close speed settings in a range between 10 and 15 seconds.
Intelligent Inherent Entrapment Sensor (IES)
- Any impediment to gate travel is sensed by
the system, stopping gate movement per UL 325 Standard of Safety. The intelligent system monitors gate power then adapts the IES to trip at an adjustable threshold above normal power.
Improved Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) - A
32-character LCD provides increased readability for programming and troubleshooting.
USB communications port - A direct connect provides accessibility to download system diagnostics and upload system congurations using the Smart Touch Analyze and Retrieve Tool (S.T.A.R.T.) software.
Adaptable - The design incorporates a universal gate arms to assure aesthetic functionality. An articulating arm is an available option which also provides adaptability to a variety of site situations.
UPS backup and Solar ready - Two 12V, 8 amp hour (Ah) batteries will provide a fully functional gate operator (up to 300 gate cycles) when AC power is unavailable. Four user-selectable UPS modes are available. 12VDC and 24VDC are available to power access controls. The unit’s design also incorporates space for optional 50Ah batteries to support solar applications or usage during extended power outages.
INTELLIGENT FEATURES: SMART DC CONTROLLER
Automatic adjustment and synchronization of bi-parting gates - The Smart DC Controller
automatically adjusts the gate speed to synchronize the left and right gates so that they reach the open and close positions at the same time. Independent leaf delay adjustment for bi-parting gates is selectable in ½ second increments.
TM
S.T.A.R.T. software and diagnostics - With
S.T.A.R.T. software loaded on a laptop computer, you have an invaluable management tool for all HySecurity operators. To download this free software, visit the HySecurity website at www.
hysecurity.com.

Verify gate operator usage class
for the site. For all gate operators other than Crash-rated, refer to Identifying Gate Operator Category and Usage Class in product manual. Install operator only when gate operator class is correct for site, size, and type of gate.
Install an automatic operator only on gates
that comply with ASTM F2200 Gate and Fence Standards. Screen or enclose openings in gate per UL 325 Safety Standards include:
• All horizontal slide gates must guard or screen openings from gate’s base support to a minimum height of 6 feet (183 cm) above ground. This must prevent a sphere of 2¼-inches (57 mm) in diameter from passing through an opening in gate or adjacent fence that is covered in gate’s open position.
• Physical stops must exist in gate construction to prevent over-travel in both directions and guard posts must be installed to prevent gate from falling in event of a roller failure.
Before attaching operator to gate, move gate or barrier arm in both directions. Make sure it is level and travels freely. A gate or barrier arm that moves easily reduces strain on operator components. Gravity should play no part in gate opening or closing.
Never over-tighten a clutch or pressure relief valve to compensate for a stiff or damaged gate.
Make sure all exposed pinch points, rollers and wheels are guarded.

WIND LOAD FACTORS & SITE PREP
Wind load is always a factor when considering appropriate gate for a particular site. Solid gate panels produce a larger wind load than gates with slats or open decorative features. If you are installing a gate operator in high wind areas, gate design will affect load on gate operator. Because wind force acts same as an obstruction, it is important that gates be designed to present a relatively low surface area for wind to push on gate panel.
If gate is heavy and near weight capacity of what
gate operator can handle (see specifi cations for
"OPERATOR"), make sure it has an open design
that allows wind to fl ow through it. A solid or
semi-solid gate design under certain wind load conditions may cause damage to gate operator and is not covered by the HySecurity Limited Warranty.
Several factors play into calculations of wind load
on a gate panel. To fi nd out maximum wind speed
in areas around the United States, search for US government wind speed maps on the internet. If you don’t know how to calculate for wind load, ask a mechanical engineer or site architect for assistance prior to installing gate operator and
When IES trips, it sends a signal to gate operator to stop and reverse direction. This feature may be falsely triggered in excessively windy conditions because wind itself, acting over surface area of gate panel, can provide necessary force to trigger
SAFETY INFORMATION
gate panels.
IES.
CAUTION
Do not adjust IES sensitivity to accommodate for inappropriately designed gate panels. Loss of IES sensitivity increases mechanical wear on gate hardware and gate operator. It may also pose a safety hazard. Compensating for wind loads by adjusting IES may set IES sensitivity to a level which, when encountering an obstruction, ignores obstruction and fails to reverse direction. For more information, refer to Adjusting the IES Sensitivity.

SAFETY INFORMATION

EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON

An emergency stop button that is accessible from the outside of the operator is a requirement for compliance with UL325 Safety Standards. The red emergency stop button on the SwingSmart operator is located inside a hole cutout on the cover.
Pressing the emergency stop button while the gate is opening or closing disables the automatic close timer and stops gate travel. The gate travel remains stopped until the operator receives any open or close signal.
Make sure all users of the gate know where the emergency stop button is located.
A screwdriver or hex key can be used to press lightly on the switch to activate it.

EMERGENCY RELEASE

Make sure to teach all users how to turn off electric power and how to move the gate manually. SwingSmart allows a gate to be pushed manually when the taper clamp is loosened. It is recommended that you turn off DC power which disengages the motor allowing you to easily move the gate.
When you turn DC power off, the following occurs:
z The motor disengages which keeps it from
running should any relay or open/close leaf functions be set.
z The GATE NO LOAD (FAULT 4) may appear on
the display.
To manually open the gate(s), take the following steps:
1. Remove the covers and turn off.
2. Extend the taper handle and loosen the clamp
by turning the handle counter-clockwise. Refer to Figure XXX.
Figure 1. Emergency Stop Button
3. Swing the gate(s) open or close.
To return SwingSmart to automatic operation, take the following steps:
1. Make sure the gate(s) is not moving.
2. Tighten the taper clamp until no slippage
occurs when you simulate a gate strike. Refer to "Setting the Taper Clamp" on page 37.
3. Flip the DC power switch ON.
4. Clear any faults by pressing STOP or RESET.

MOUNTING THE OPERATOR

Install the operator, by taking the following steps:
1. Assess any limitations in the surrounding area such as curbs, walls, or bushes.
2. Before placing the operator on the pad, measure and mark the output shaft center on the concrete pad by selecting the X and Y dimensions. Refer to Figure 5.
a. For short gates up to 10 feet (3m): If X
= 10.5", Set Y dimension at 14, 18, or 20". (35.6, 45.7, or 50.8cm)
b. For medium gates up to 13 feet (3.9m):
If X = 12", Set Y dimension at 22, 24, or 28". (55.9, 61, or 71cm)
c. For long gates up to 20 feet (6.1m): If
X = 15", Set Y dimension at 30, 35, or 40". (76, 89, or 102cm)
3. Set the operator base on the concrete pad and use it as a template. Position the operator base so the center mark on the pad aligns with the small hole in the base plate. Mark the fastener and conduit cutouts. Remove the operator from the concrete pad and drill the holes for the concrete anchors.

GATE BRACKET AND LINKAGE ARMS

Installing the Gate Bracket

1. Secure the gate to prevent movement.
CAUTION
Consider positioning the operator so existing conduit exits through the cutout in the SwingSmart base plate. Cutting small holes in the base plate for pre-existing conduit is permissible, but not recommended because it can impair the strength of the chassis and void the Limited Warranty.
2. Determine the proper position of the gate bracket. Use Figure 6 and Table 2 for reference. Hint: Determine if you have a short, medium, or long gate. If the X and Y dimensions in the chart are the same as your install, set the gate bracket at the Xg dimension. If your install does not t to the chart specs, use the Custom Gate Installation formula to determine the proper gate bracket placement.
3. Measure and position the gate bracket so it is level with the arm on the operator. Clamp the gate bracket to the horizontal cross member.

COMPLETING GATE ARM INSTALLATION

1. To determine whether you should drill & bolt or weld the linkage arms, you should take into consideration site planning and future impact to gate arm installation. Check whether re bans exist at your site. Fire bans do not permit outdoor welding.
2. Paint exposed areas to prevent rusting.
1A: DRILL & BOLT: If you plan to use fasteners,
drill holes through the linkage arms. Refer to Figure 14.
1B: WELD: If you plan to weld the linkage arms,
weld a 1/8-inch llet around the tubing joint. Only weld at sites where outdoor welding is permitted.
CAUTION
For sites where incident of gate strikes are high, HySecurity recommends setting the elbow with a slight offset at the full close position. Use the supplied set screw in middle position to prevent the arm from locking. The intent of the offset is that, upon gate strike, the elbow will bend and the taper clamp will slip, minimizing damage to the gearbox and operator. Be aware if the elbow is set straight and a gate strike does occur, the full force of the impact will be transferred through the linkage arms and into the gearbox causing possible damage to the gearbox and operator.
To weld the linkage arms: Weld a 1/8-inch fillet around the tubing joint.

ARTICULATING ARM OPTION

INSTALLATION
Pivot bolt
Figure 15. Articulating Arm Option
NOTICE
Articulating Arm Option is only available on the old style two cover swing arm shown here.
The articulating arm assembly uses a spherical rod end at the elbow and at the bracket mount. Situations where you might use this option include:
z The operator pad or gate is not level. The
spherical rod ends on the articulating arm forgive minor discrepancies where the hardware may not be perfectly plumb.
z The gate arm is not horizontal.
By ordering the articulating arm assembly for use in these situations, the binding stress between the operator and gate hardware is reduced.
NOTICE
Gate attachment bracket

z A gate must be neutrally balanced. To comply
with ASTM F2200 General Requirements, a gate must be designed, constructed and installed in such a way that its movement is not initiated by gravity when the gate operator is disconnected or loses power.
z The over-extension stop on the standard
HySecurity gate arm does not exist on the articulating arm. To avoid hyperextension, mount the arm so a slight bend at the elbow joint is maintained in the gate closed position. This slight bend may prevent damage to the operator during a gate strike because it allows the elbow to bend properly and permits the taper clutch to slip thereby reducing the impact to the operator.
z Due to the exibility in the elbow joint, only one
pinch protection cover is used.
Although some sites necessitate fastening a gate arm to the gate at an angle, HySecurity does not recommend it. The preferred method is an installation where the gate arm remains horizontal throughout gate travel.
When installing an articulating arm assembly, be sure to take into account the following guidelines:
36 | www.hysecurity.com SWINGSMART DC PROGRAMMING AND OPERATIONS MANUAL MX3640-01 REV. D ©2018
CAUTION
If the gate arm is mounted at a slight angle, test the operation of the gate several times. Be sure to check for clearance issues. If possible pinch points exist, make sure to adjust the gate arm and eliminate any clearance issues or pinch points.

Figure 16. Setting the Taper Clamp
NOTICE
Setting the taper clamp with the gate closed impedes trafc ow. If vehicles need to pass through the gate area, delay setting the taper clamp until after the operator has been congured to run. Refer to "Conguring the Setup Menu" on page 55.
The taper clamp is made of two pieces: a cone­shaped hub ts into a taper clamp assembly. The more you turn the taper handle clockwise the harder it becomes to slip the clutch. In certain situations, such as secure military facilities, consider straightening the gate arm instead of over-tightening the taper clamp. Refer to "Locking the Gate Arm at Secure Facilities" on page 38.
1. To loosen and release the taper clamp, extend the taper handle and turn the handle counterclockwise. See Figure 16.
2. Manually, swing the gate half way between the open and closed position (approximate 45° angle).
3. To tighten the assembly, turn the taper clamp handle clockwise in 1/8-inch (3.2mm) increments. A large amount of torque is not required in order to obtain a tight clutch setting.
4. Push the gate end with approximately 100 pounds of force to simulate a gate strike. If the taper clamp slips, use the taper handle to further tighten the assembly.
5. Continue to adjust the taper clamp until no slippage occurs.
6. Retract and center the taper clamp handle.

INSTALLATION

LOCKING THE GATE ARM AT SECURE FACILITIES

The purpose in leaving the gate arm with a slight bend in it (i.e. turning the set screw to offset the over travel stop) is to lessen the transference of energy along the gate arm during gate strikes. With the gate arm bent at a slight angle, it can absorb more of the impact and possibly cause less damage to the gear box in the SwingSmartDC operator.
At facilities that require higher security, you may want to consider straightening the gate arm to “lock” it in place so pushing the gate open becomes much more difcult.
Some aspects to consider, if you want to limit opportunities to force the gate open:
z Turn ON the Force Open Alert in the User Menu
by setting the menu item FA to 1. When set to 1 and the gate is forced open, a 3-second buzzer alerts the surrounding area that the gate is being forced off its closed limits. The gate operator attempts to close the gate, but if the gate does not begin to fully close within 4 seconds, the motor turns off and the buzzer continues for another 30 seconds. ALERT 1 - FORCED OPEN appears on the display. (An OPEN or CLOSE command clears the alert and resets the display.)
NOTICE
Keep the taper clamp tight as explained in the procedures on the previous page. Do not overtighten the taper clamp. Overtightening the taper clamp may cause excessive wear to the clutch mechanism or damage to the taper clamp causing it to stick during normal gate operation.
z Fully straighten the gate arm, so it is in a straight
“locked” position. Throughout the instructions found in this manual, it states that a bend in the gate arm is critical to offset the damage that may be inicted to the gate operator during a gate strike. If the purpose is to use excessive measures to keep the gate closed, consider fully straightening the gate arm during installation. Straightening the gate arm after installation will require loosening the set screw and moving the gate bracket or other gate hardware.
z Lock the movement of the gate using an external
method, such as a locking chain.

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.
DANGER
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 DC Controller and other electrical parts.
Take the following steps to comply with NEC and NFPA 780 standards:
1. Install a grounding rod per local building codes. See Figure 17.
2. Attach a large earth ground wire (6AWG) from the grounding rod to the lug nut on the base of the chassis.
z New site: Run the 6AWG wire through the
concrete base and into the cutout on the chassis base.
z Existing site: Run the 6AWG wire beneath the
rear cover. Make sure the covers align and side latches lock properly.
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. Refer to "Wiring 115VAC Power" and "Wiring 208/230VAC Power".

USING A SOLAR POWERED OPERATOR

HySecurity offers a solar version of the SwingSmart operator: SwingSmart DCS20. The solar model has different internal wiring and includes software programmed for solar use. The Smart DC Controller has a built-in charger which allows a 24V solar panel (or two 12V panels) a direct connection to the SwingSmart operator with no additional electronic devices required.
NOTICE
Solar panels are NOT included in the purchase of the SwingSmart DCS 20 Solar operator. Also, adapting a standard SwingSmart DC operator to a solar application is not recommended. For ease of installation and proper functionality, be sure to order a SwingSmart DCS 20 for a solar-powered site.
To plan a solar-powered site, read through this entire section. Keep in mind that the SwingSmart DCS 20 operator does not have the following components:

POWER

Design Requirements & Considerations

Two standard 8Ah batteries are supplied with SwingSmart DCS 20 and nominally support up to 100 cycles per day based on the following:
z Battery storage capacity based on 5 solar hours
per day.
z 20WATT solar panel system (minimum
requirement).
z A gate weight of 750lbs (340kg) and gate length
of 12ft (3.7m)
z Connection to two HY-5B and one multi-code
radio receiver. Note that if connected properly, photo eyes are not considered in the power load because the Smart DC Controller only powers the photo eyes when the motor engages.
NOTICE
The available 50Ah battery option supports more peripheral connections because of its higher storage capacity. A higher energy storage capacity provides a higher sustained current draw. If the solar operator will be opening and closing more often at night or in low solar hour conditions, consider using the 50Ah option and two 20WATT panels (for a total capacity of 40 WATTS).
The design of the solar-powered site is important in maintaining the highest gate cycle capacity and extending the life of the batteries. The construction of a solar-powered gate and its cycle capacity is signicantly affected by the following:
z Energy demand of the peripheral devices. The
more energy efcient the device the less power draw occurs to the batteries.
z Solar hours at the site. “Solar hours” relate to
the amount of energy delivered by the sun and absorbed by the solar panels. It is NOT the same as the number of daylight hours available at the
site. See Figure 23.
z Design considerations must use calculations
that are gured for the darkest months of the year (typically December/January). Higher wattage panels may be required.
z Impediments to the sun’s rays reaching the
solar panels. Elements such as, shade, improper alignment, or dirty panels will reduce the amount of power available.
NOTICE
Solar panels must not be shaded (not even partially) or the output power will be signicantly reduced. Panels must be kept clean as small areas of sunlight blockage cause a large reduction in output power. Alignment is also critical because the rated wattage output is based on the solar panels being mounted perpendicular to the angle of the sun’s rays midday on winter solstice (December 21st).
z Extreme temperatures affect battery life. Keep
the batteries away from temperatures above 90°F (32°C). See "Important Considerations for DC-Powered Operators" on page 49.
z Good gate hardware and smooth, unobstructed
gate travel lowers the operator’s power draw and serves to extend battery life.
NOTICE
Any solar systems that are designed close to the minimum margins will stress and shorten the battery life and risk unreliable operation, especially in periods of inclement weather.

POWER
To connect any peripheral devices to a solar operator, use the 24VDC or 12VDC terminals. Because a solar operator gets its energy from the sun and stores the energy produced by the solar panels in batteries that are constantly discharging, it is important to use peripheral devices that draw and consume as little power as possible.
For example, the Smart DC Controller has specic connections for photo eyes. When you attach photo eyes for entrapment protection, wire the photo eyes to the EYE COM and +24VDC. When wired to these connections, the photo eyes only draw power when the motor engages, thereby extending battery life. The same can be said for HY-5B vehicle detectors which draw a minimal
0.005A per detector; compared to box detectors
which usually draw, at minimum, 0.009A. .

Understanding Gate Activity based on Solar Zones

Use the solar maps to determine the number of solar hours per day that can be reasonably expected in a particular zone. The number of solar hours per day affects the amount of gate travel powered by the SwingSmart solar operator.
NOTICE
Remember, the sun is the only source of energy. If you need to increase the number of gate cycles per day, additional solar panels may be required. Also, the greater the battery capacity, the longer the operator can cycle the gate on cloudy days without the recharge provided by the solar panels. Sites requiring more cycles per day or those sites located in less sunny climes, need larger capacity batteries. HySecurity offers a 50Ah battery option which provides six times the storage capacity of the standard 8Ah batteries.

POWER
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS FOR DC­POWERED OPERATORS
z Since the operator is intended to run on
batteries, control of the load is important. Gates that move easily and do not bind will drain less energy from the battery, preserving capacity for more cycles during a power failure.
z Be certain to observe polarity when connecting
the batteries or adding accessories. Reversed polarity may result in a non-functional operator or damage to a component. Red (+) is positive and black (-) is negative. If shorted, the batteries will generate a very high current. The batteries are connected in a series circuit: Join the positive (+) terminal from one battery to the negative (-) terminal of the next battery.
z Batteries have a nite life and age more quickly
when exposed to temperatures above 80°F (27°C). Battery temperatures above 104°F (40°C) are damaging and signicantly shorten battery life.
z As the batteries age, they will progressively lose
their capacity to store energy. If the total amount of back up capacity is critical, plan to replace the batteries after two years of use especially in hot climates. Properly discard used batteries. Refer
to page 15.
WARNING
Batteries contain sulfuric acid. Acid in your eyes, on your skin, or on your clothing can cause injury and severe burns. If batteries are dropped or damaged dispose of them properly.
z Batteries are rated to perform to capacity at
certain temperatures. Variations in temperature affect performance of the batteries. An example of amp hour performance is shown in Table 7. HySecurity mounts the battery pack near the transformer to provide residual heat around the batteries which guards against amp hour loss in colder climates.
Table 7. Amp Hour - Example of Battery
Performance
Temperature Capacity
77°F (25°C) 100
32°F (0°C) 80
-22°F (-27°C) 50
z HySecurity uses a permanently sealed AGM-
type battery which last much longer than wet cell batteries and needs no maintenance over its life span. Batteries are protected from over discharge by a low voltage sensing circuit. The charger circuit regulates to allow high charger output when the battery is partially discharged. The charger circuit automatically reduces the output to near zero as the batteries become fully charged.
NOTICE
The SwingSmart operator stores all User and Installer Menu settings in non-volatile memory (EEPROM). Configurations are saved if a power loss occurs and reinstated once power is restored.

RUN MODE

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 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.
NOTICE
To access the User or Installer menus, the motor cannot be engaged and the gate cannot be moving.
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. See Figure 32.

SETTING THE TIME AND DATE

A feature of the Smart DC Controller is its 24-hour, 365 day clock. Make sure it is set to the appropriate time zone. An accurate time and date allows the diagnostic log to date stamp operational data which indicates when Alerts, Faults and Errors occur. The log helps in troubleshooting and can be viewed via a laptop connected to the USB or RS232 port, or on the LCD directly. For more information, refer to "Smart DC Controller Troubleshooting" on page 123.
To set or adjust the time or date, take the following steps and see Figure 35:
1. At a gate status display, press the MENU button twice. This accesses the User Menu and the CLOSE TIMER display appears.
2. Press NEXT or PREV until the SET CLOCK display appears.
3. Press SELECT. CL blinks.
4. Press NEXT or PREV to change the number
to 1.
5. Press SELECT to accept the display.
6. The date and time display appears. Use the
SELECT and NEXT buttons in the same manner as before to adjust the date and time.
NOTICE
A lithium coin battery, on the Smart DC Controller board, supports the clock so the date and time is retained even when the main power is turned off. Replace the battery every
ve years with a DL 2025, DL 2032 or CR 2025 or CR 2032 battery. Refer to "Clock Battery Replacement" on page 103.

SETTING AC POWER LOSS GATE FUNCTION

The setting in the AC LOSS display determines what action the operator performs during an AC power loss. The settings help reduce drain on the battery. You can choose between four settings depending on customer preferences.
Table 10. AC Power Loss Menu
Menu Setting Description
Normal gate functions continue until system detects battery voltage drop below 21V. DEAD BATTERY appears on display and gate automatically opens. Any pushbutton CLOSE command will close gate and any OPEN command will re-open gate. If battery continues to diminish and system detects 18V or less, system initiates an automatic open cycle. Any new open or close command is ignored and LCD appears blank. System remains in this disabled state until reset or battery recovers to 24V.
Normal gate functions continue until system detects a battery voltage drop below 21V. DEAD BATTERY appears on display and gate automatically closes. Gate can be opened by a special sequence of a STOP input followed by an OPEN push-button or directly opened with Fire Department Open command. Any push-button CLOSE command closes gate. If battery continues to diminish and system detects 18V or less, system initiates an automatic open cycle if not already on a limit. Any new open or close command is ignored and LCD appears blank. System remains in this disabled state until reset or battery recovers to 24V.

This selection determines whether close timer begins to count down after vehicles have departed detector loops or whether close timer will count down while the loops are occupied. Gate can only close when all loop detectors are clear.
Default settings causes Close Timer to start when all loops are clear. A setting of 2 causes Close Timer to start when open limit is reached. A setting of 3 forces the Close Timer to 0 when the OOLD and IOLD are tripped simultaneously. A setting of 4 stops the gate when OOLD and IOLD are tripped simultaneously and closes from that point when the loops clear.

ADJUSTING THE IES SENSITIVITY

DISPLAY AND MENU OPTIONS
SwingSmart uses a primary Type-A inherent entrapment sensor (IES) per UL325 Safety Standards. A solid immovable object blocking the gate will trip the IES and cause the operator to stop and reverse (for two seconds) and enter safe mode.
The adaptive IES software monitors the average running motor current while the gate is in motion and reverses the gate when the current exceeds an automatically self-adapting threshold.
The IES display, accessed through the Installer Menu, allows you to input a number between 0 and
9. The settings (0 through 6) allow an increasingly higher threshold (amount of headroom) above the average current draw before tripping. For IES settings 7 through 9, the current limit is a xed relatively high current value before the IES will be tripped. The factory setting is 2, which is adequate for most sites. See Figure 44 and Figure 45
CAUTION
Avoid setting the IES sensitivity to a xed level (7 - 9 setting). The high motor current required for the IES to trip could cause severe injury or death to people caught in the moving gate.

Over time, degrading gate hardware and other site issues, such as road settling or debris on the gate rail (V-track) can occur. As the gate hardware ages and becomes stiffer, the SwingSmart motor current increases and this may create the need to use a higher IES setting level. The higher settings should only be used on a TEMPORARY basis until

Installer Menu, by
DISPLAY AND MENU OPTIONS
Examples of conditions which affect IES sensitivity include:
Gate design - For long and/or solid gates in windy environments, large variations in motor current may occur. In these types of scenarios, you may want to use a higher (less sensitive) IES setting.
Gate condition - If the gate environment is near salty sea air, rusty hinges might impede gate travel over time. Additionally, gates that are hit and bent may have very stiff areas during travel that cause a large variation in motor current. For these issues, you may want to use a higher (less sensitive) IES setting until repairs are made.
Gate maintenance - Gate hinges will deteriorate and begin to fail over time. In poorly maintained gate areas, the chance for false IES trips is higher.
To adjust the IES sensitivity, take the following steps and see Figure 46:
1. At a gate status display, press the MENU button twice. The CLOSE TIMER display appears.
2. Simultaneously, press the OPEN and RESET buttons to enter the Installer Menu. Release the buttons and the LEARN LIMITS display appears.
3. Press NEXT until the IES SENSITIVITY display appears. The factory default setting is 2.
CAUTION
Avoid setting the IES sensitivity to a xed level (7 - 9 setting). The high motor current required for the IES to trip could cause severe injury or death to people caught in the moving gate.
If IES trips occur, SAFE MODE or ENTRAPMENT MODE will appear on the display. For more information about troubleshooting, refer to "Smart DC Controller - Troubleshooting" on page

VEHICLE DETECTOR

HySecurity recommends that vehicle detectors be used for free exit and obstruction sensing logic only. The exception is in parking or gate 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 "Table 12. Smart DC Controller - Installer Menu Functions" on page
68.

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-5B

The Smart DC Controller provides a feature-rich interface to four different vehicle detector inputs.
NOTICE
Standard box type 11 pin (24 Volt DC or 24 Volt AC) vehicle detectors may be connected in the traditional manner as described in Installing Standard 11-Pin Box Type Vehicle Detectors.
HySecurity’s custom HY-5B mini-detector module (Figure 52) plugs directly into the Smart DC Controller board making eld installation much faster plus providing a large performance benet. The detector communicates with the Smart DC Controller microprocessor to achieve the following benets over common box type detectors:
z Loop frequency is automatically set and
monitored by the Smart DC Controller
z Very low power draw, which is important for
maximum UPS capability during a power failure and for solar applications.
z Cross-talk between multiple loops is impossible. z Best operating frequency for each loop is
automatically selected.
z Loop frequency and call strength can be
reported on the Smart DC Controller display.
z Loop malfunctions are reported and stored by
the Smart DC Controller.
z Most detector or loop faults that can occur
are reported and presented on the Smart DC Controller display.
It is not mandatory to use two separate detectors for inner and outer obstruction detection, but the benets inusing an additional detector provide second vehicle tailgating detection, loitering alert, and selectable nonreversing options.
Terminal Ground: Lightning protection Optional connection: Use where lightning strikes occur.

There are four vehicle detector inputs available on the Smart DC Controller:
z Free Exit Loop Detector - This opens a fully
closed gate or reopens a closing gate.
z Outside Obstruction Loop Detector (Out Obs
Loop) - Reversing loop on public side
z Inside Obstruction Loop Detector (In Obs Loop)
- Reversing loop on secure side
z Center Loop Detector - Not used for slide gates.
NOTICE
Standard box type 11 pin (24 Volt DC or 24 Volt AC) vehicle detectors may be connected in the traditional manner as described in "Installing Standard 11-Pin Box Type Vehicle Detectors" on page 93.

CONNECTING HY-5B VEHICLE DETECTORS

Install the HY-5B Vehicle Detector modules according to the following procedure:
1. Turn off both AC and DC power switches.
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 DC Controller board. 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-5B detector. Tighten the terminal screws securely.
5. Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for each HY-5B detector.
6. To enable the detectors, turn on power. The detectors will immediately tune if they are connected to loops. Make sure no cars or other metal objects are over the loops.
7. If the detector module is unplugged after it is enabled, a communications alert (ALERT
10) will be triggered; if the fault continues an error message, ERROR 3 “Detector Failed” is displayed.
NOTICE
If there is any detector fault, the gate operator functions as if the detector is triggered.
Pressing the RESET button:
z Clears any errors z Tunes the detectors on connected loops z Un-installs any detectors that have been
removed
8. The Smart DC Controller automatically governs frequency selection for all HY-5B detector modules. This simplifies installation and guarantees that there is no cross-talk between multiple loops. The frequency can also be manually selected; if this is required, refer to "Table 12. Smart DC Controller - Installer Menu Functions" on page 68.
9. Sensitivity adjustment is available for each HY­5B in the installer menu. Generally, sensitivity does not need to be increased unless the loop is large or there are multiple loops connected to one detector. The HY-5B sensitivity defaults to automatic.
NOTICE
Do not exceed more than 200 square feet (61 square meters) of loop area to one detector.

If required, adjust the sensitivity by accessing the ELD, OOLD, IOLD, or CLD menu items in the installer menu.
z A = Automatic, z M = Motorcycle z 0 = Low with boost (See NOTE.) z 1 = Normal with boost (See NOTE.) z 2 = High with boost (See NOTE.) z 3 = X-High with boost (See NOTE.) z 4 = Low without boost z 5 = Normal without boost z 6 = High without boost z 7 = X-High without boost

INSTALLING STANDARD 11-PIN BOX TYPE VEHICLE DETECTORS

NOTICE
If photo eyes are used to monitor vehicle trafc instead of loop detectors, connect the photos eyes using the same steps described below.
If standard 11-pin box type vehicle detectors are to be used, perform the following procedure.
If there is sufficient 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 24VDC in case of an AC power outage. Figure 53 is for general reference only.
NOTICE
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 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 DC Controller.
3. If multiple detectors are used, route the power wires and common wire from socket to socket (daisychaining) rather than individually running each wire to the same location. See Figure
53. The only wires that are separate are the output wire to the Smart DC Controller and the detector loop input wires.
NOTICE
Always keep the detector loop wires well twisted at all places beyond the area of the loop. The lead in portion should be twisted to the detector to help mitigate problems associated with electrical noise getting into the loop wires. The wires should then be encapsulated in the saw cut with a exible loop sealant. Refer to "Installing Vehicle Detectors and Loops" on page 110.

BI-PARTING/DUAL GATE SYSTEM

Configuring two operators to be a Primary and Secondary pair is easy with the Smart DC 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 primary and secondary operators. See Figure 54.

POWER REQUIREMENTS

When installing a dual-operator system, the following must be adhered to:
z An electrical conduit for interconnecting wires
must span between the two operators. The dual gate communication wires and any low voltage control wires must be installed in a conduit that is separate from the high voltage power wires.
See Table 16 and Figure 54.
z Complete the installation of both operators as
separate machines and verify that their basic functions are correct as solo operators before interconnecting them.
z External control inputs, vehicle detectors
and entrapment protection sensors may be connected to either gate operator without regard to preference.
z Be sure both operators are running the same
software version. The software version is available on the display by pressing the RESET button on the operator. The software version appears beneath the word HYSECURITY. Keep the most current software loaded. It is available at www.hysecurity.com. Make it part of your maintenance routine to check for software upgrades on a regular basis.
z Both operators can be connected to the same
20A circuit breaker in the main panel. The wire size affects operator performance. Use the following chart as a guideline to size wire for the given distance from the power source to BOTH operators.
