ROLE OF SPECIFIERS AND DESIGNERS
Specifiers and designers should design an automatic vehicular gate system to:
• Utilize an operator suited for gate system type, size, frequency of use, location and user population.
• Separate pedestrian access from vehicle access.
• Reduce or eliminate pinch points.
• Reduce risk of entrapment injuries by minimizing all gaps in the gate and enclosing the area of the
travel of the gate.
• Secure controls from unauthorized use.
• Locate all controls out of reach from the gate.
• Allow the user full view of the gate when operating.
• Consider special populations, such as children or the elderly.
• Be consistent with DASMA’s Automatic Gate Opener System Safety Guide.
ROLE OF DEALERS, INSTALLERS AND
TRAINED GATE SYSTEM TECHNICIANS
Installers, during the course of the installation proceedings for each job, should:
• Confirm that the gate operator being installed is appropriate for the application.
• Confirm that the gate is designed and built according to current published industry standards.
• Confirm that all appropriate features and accessory devices are being incorporated, including both
primary and secondary entrapment protection devices.
• Make sure that the gate works freely before installing the operator.
• Repair or service worn or damaged gate hardware before installing the operator.
• Eliminate all gaps in the sliding gate below a 4 foot height that permit a 2 1/4 inch sphere to pass
through any location, including the area of the adjacent fence covered when the gate is in the open
position.
• Install the gate operator according to the manufacturer’s installation instructions.
• Adjust the operator clutch or load-sensing device to the minimum force setting that allows reliable gate
operation.
• Install operator inside fence line (DO NOT install operator on public side of fence line)
• Install a proper electrical ground to a gate operator.
• Install keypad controls where users cannot touch, or reach through gate while operating controls.
• Install controls where user has full view of gate operation.
• Test all features for proper functions before placing the automatic vehicular gate into service.
• Demonstrate the basic functions and safety features of the gate system to owners/end users/general
contractors, including how to turn off power and how to operate the manual disconnect feature.
• Leave safety instructions, product literature, installation manual and maintenance manual with end
user.
• Explain to the owners the importance of a service contract that includes a routine re-testing of the
entire system including the entrapment protection devices, and explain the need for the owners to
insure that this testing is performed routinely.
• Offer the owner/end user a maintenance contract, or contact them regularly to offer maintenance.
2
ROLE OF END USERS/HOME OWNER
End users should be made aware that they must:
• Contact a trained gate systems technician to maintain and repair the gate system (End users should
never attempt to repair the gate)
• Retain and utilize the installation and maintenance manual and safety instructions.
• Routinely check of all gate operator functions and gate movement.
• Discontinue use if safety systems operate improperly, the gate is damaged, or the gate is difficult to
move.
• Never overtighten the operator clutch of load sensing device to compensate for a damaged or stiff
operating gate.
• Keep all obstructions clear of the vicinity of the path of the gate system.
• Actively discourage pedestrian use of the vehicular gate operating system.
• Prevent anyone from playing near any part of the gate system.
• Never allow anyone to climb under, over or through a gate or the adjacent fence area.
• Never allow children to operate gate
• Keep portable controls out of reach of children.
• Never allow anyone to install an operating control within reach of the gate.
• Never allow anyone to install a horizontal slide gate with exposed rollers or openings large enough to
allow a sphere of 2 1/4 inches to pass through any portion of the gate below a 4 foot height, including
the area of the adjacent fence covered when the gate is in the open position.
• Always be certain that the gate area is clear of pedestrians before operating the gate.
HORIZONTAL SLIDE GATE SYSTEMS
• Entrapment Zone Hazard - Body parts may become entrapped between a gate and a stationary object
when the gate begins to move, which can result in serious injury or death. Pedestrians must stay clear
of the gate path, and any area where gate motion is close to stationary objects.
• Pinch Points Hazard - In open rollers gates, hands can get caught between the top of the gate and top
rollers, which can result in serious injury. Feet can be injured in the same manner between the bottom
of the gate and bottom rollers. Covers to guard these pinch points should be installed.
• Crush Hazard - In picket gates, body parts positioned between the bars can become seriously
mutilated when the gate begins to move, which can result in serious injury or death. If any openings
are greater than 2 1/4 inches, a screen should be installed over the gate (in accordance with the
provisions of UL 325) to prevent persons from reaching through and/or passing through the gate. In l
ike manner, screening should also be applied to the adjacent fence area covered by the gate when in
the fully open position.
3
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT!
Instructions regarding
Robo Slide Installation.
A) Install the gate operator only when:
1) All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or
screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet
(1.2 m) above the ground to prevent a 2 1/4inch (57.15 mm)
diameter sphere from passing through the openings
anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the adjacent
fence that the gate covers in the open position.
2) All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and
3) Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
B) The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles.
Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening.
C) The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is
supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and
closing to reduce the risk of entrapment.
D) The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions
prior to the installation of the gate operator.
E) Controls must be far enough from the gate so that the user is
prevented from coming in contact with the gate while operating the
controls.
4
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
F) For a gate operator utilizing a non-contact sensor such as a photo beam:
1) See instructions on the placement of non-contact sensor for
each type of application.
2) Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping,
such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is still
moving.
3) One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the
risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter
reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
G) For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge sensor:
1) One or more contact sensors shall be located at the leading
edge, trailing edge and postmounted both inside and outside
of a vehicular horizontal slide gate.
2) A hardwired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so
that the communication between the sensor and the gate operator is
not subjected to mechanical damage.
3) A wireless contact sensor such as the one that transmits radio
frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment
protection functions shall be located where the transmission of
the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures,
natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless contact sensor
shall function under the intended end-use conditions.

STEP BY STEP INSTALLATION
STEP 5: Earth Ground Rod Installation
An earth ground rod must be installed to protect this operator
Proper grounding gives an electrical charge, such as from an electrical static discharge or a near
lightning strike, a path from which to dissipate its energy safely into the earth.
Without this path, the intense energy generated by lightning could be directed towards the Elite gate
operator. Although nothing can absorb the tremendous power of a direct lightning strike, proper
grounding can protect the gate operator in most cases.
Before digging more than 18" deep, contact local underground utility locating companies.
Avoid damaging gas, power, or other underground utility lines.
The earth ground rod must be located within 3 feet from the Elite gate operator. Use the proper type
earth ground rod for your local area.
The ground wire must be a single, whole piece of wire. Never splice two wires for the ground wire. If
you should cut the ground wire too short, break it, or destroy its integrity, replace it with a single wire
length.

STEP 7: Optional Solar Panel Connection
If you use Elite's optional solar panel (Elite Part # Solar 3). Connect the two wires from the
solar panel to the power input connection on the surge suppressor (Polarity does not
matter). Sunlight will energize the batteries through the solar panel. This solar panel will
charge up to 1000 Mamp/Hr in optimum conditions & 300 Mamp/Hr in light overcast
conditions. For further details about Elite's solar panel, consult the “Solar 3” Installation
sheet that is included with the solar panel.

Energizing this operator with solar power only needs the radio receiver to operate the gate.
The only recommended external devices other than radio receivers are dry-contact
command devices which do not consume any current like key switches. Using other
devices that consume high current such as telephone access, magnetic locks or loop
detectors will cause excess drainage of the battery and eventually completely drain the
battery .
Elite recommends using a larger battery
(12 VDC, 30 AHr) (Elite Part # A 12330)
CAUTION
in this operator when using the optional
solar panel.

STEP BY STEP INSTALLATION
STEP 8: Surge Suppressor Terminal Connections
The radio receiver must be 12 VDC only (Elite Part # A 1099-12V). If you want to use safety
or exit loops, you must use 12 VDC loop detectors only (Elite Part # A 23).

Each notch of the nut indicates an
estimated 1 inch of gate travel
STEP 10: Timer
If you want to use the automatic close for the gate system, the timer switch should be set
to the “ON” position. If you want to use the push open or push close command, the timer
should be set to the “OFF” position.

STEP 11: Two-Way Adjustable Reversing Sensor
Adjust the “Reverse Sensor” pot on the upper portion of the control board. Do Not Touch
Alarm Sensor pot.
The level of reverse sensitivity depends on the weight of the gate
and the condition of installation.
Too sensitive = if the gate stops or reverses by itself.
Not sensitive enough = if the gate hits an object and does not stop or reverse.

“OPTIONAL” FIRE RELEASE BOX
The “Fire Release Box”, is designed for use on sliding gates. It consists of a plated box,
with doors on the front and back. The doors can be locked with your own padlock, or the
fire department's padlock. The fire box would be fixed to the gate pickets. It can be opened
from either side of the gate. A steel cable with a t-handle runs from the box to the release
mechanism at the rear end of the chain. We do not provide the 1/2" EMT to run the cable
through. The release mechanism, is placed where the chain bolt would normally be. when
you pull on the t-handle, you release the chain from the bolt. To reset, simply reinsert the
pin into the housing for normal operation. (Elite Part # A CP-17)
Contact your local dealer
for more information.
The chain is held in place by a spring loaded pin.
Pull firmly on the
“T” Handle to release
the chain.

“OPTIONAL” INPUT BOARD
The optional board allows extra control of the gate, is available only from Elite Access
Systems. Installation is simple; just clip the optional board to the J2 slot on the top of the

This is for a typical single Robo Slide loop installation. Individual circumstances may alter dimensions.
For toll free technical support: 1-888-ELITE-10
Maximum gate length for Robo Slide is 20 Feet.
As
A increases in size to cover a larger gate opening, the gate will cause a larger change of inductance when
opening and closing. Therefore dimension C must increase as A increases.
If the Inside and outside safety loop are connected to the same loop detector they should be series connected.
Dimension
A, B and C should be the same for each loop. Both loops should have the same number of turns of
wire.
Dimension
D should be equal to or greater than the larger of the “Inside Safety Loop” or “Exit Loop's”
dimension B.

Loop Installation “Saw Cut” Type
LOOP INSTALLATION AND NUMBER OF WIRE TURNS
Mark the loop layout on the pavement. Remove sharp inside corners that can damage the loop wire
insulation.
Set the saw to cut to a depth (typically 2" to 2.5") that insures a minimum of 1" from the top of the wire to
pavement surface. The saw cut width should be larger than the wire diameter to avoid damage to the wire
insulation when placed in the saw slot. Cut the loop and feeder slots. Remove all debris from the slot with
compressed air. Check that the bottom of the slot is even.
It is highly recommended that a continuous length of wire be used to form the loop and feeder to the
detector. It is also highly recommend using 12-18 AWG cross-link polyethylene (XLPE) insulation for the
loop wire. Use heavier wire gauge for a more durable loop area. Use a wood stick or roller to insert the wire
to the bottom of the saw cut (Do not use sharp objects). Wrap the wire in the loop saw cut until the desired
number of turns is reached. Each turn of wire must lay flat on top of the previous turn.
The wire must be twisted together a minimum of 6 twists per foot from the end of the saw cut to the
detector.
the wire must be held firmly in the slot with 1" pieces of backer rod every 1 to 2 feet. This prevents the wire
from floating when the loop sealant is applied.
Apply the sealant. The sealant selected should have good adhering properties with similar expansion and
contraction characteristics to that of the pavement material.
