PRE-INSTALLATION NOTES

The Model RSX1000 Vehicular Gate Operator will provide convenience and assurance to the ultimate users for many years. It is ruggedly built of the finest materials and has been thoroughly inspected and tested at the Allstar factory. It has many features that will aid in the installation and testing of the complete gate system. The RSX1000 has been evaluated by Underwriters Laboratory, Inc. (UL) and is certified to comply with ANSI/UL Standard for Safety 325, as evidenced by the UL symbol on the name plate.

BEFORE ATTEMPTING INSTALLATION, READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY SO YOU WILL BE THOROUGHLY FAMILIAR WITH THE

FEATURES OF THE RSX1000 AND ITS PROPER INSTALLATION PROCEDURES.

The RSX1000 Vehicular Gate Operator is designated a Class I Vehicular Horizontal Slide Gate Operator, and is intended

for usage in a residential home, maximum of four single families in the dwelling, or a garage or parking area associated with such a home, or a similar location with regard to the cycle usage (see below). Vehicular Gate operators are also designated Class II (high cycle usage commercial location or multi-family home), III (industrial location not intended to service the general public, i.e. factories), and IV (secure or restricted access locations, i.e. airports and prisons). The RSX1000 model operator cycle usage is rated at a maximum of 10 cycles per hour, 50 cycles maximum per day.

The RSX1000 (as well as gate operators sold by other manufactures) is designed to start and move vehicular slide gates weighing as much as 300 pounds with a maximum of 16 feet in length. As such, the RSX1000 is capable of producing high levels of force. It is important in the design of the total gate system that designers, installers and users be aware of the hazards that may be associated with the IMPROPER design, installation and use of vehicular gate systems and gate operators.

The gate operator is only one part of a complete automatic gate operating system. As each location and usage is different, a properly designed system will include all applicable safety devices.

As the designer and installer of the GATE SYSTEM, you must advise the purchaser on the proper use of the gate system. You also have the primary responsibility of insuring that ALL possible operational hazards have been considered and eliminated. YOU MUST ADVISE AND WARN the purchaser and the ultimate user of ANY HAZARDS

that you have not

been able to eliminate.

The RSX1000 has several features that can help reduce the hazards of your gate system.

The Allstar RSX1000 has a built-in "Overload Detector" that can help reduce the hazards of your gate system. This mechanism, however, must not be considered as the primary obstruction sensing system. Consider all available options (electric leading edges, photoelectric sensors, protective screen mesh, etc.) to eliminate hazards in your gate system design.

The RSX1000’s built-in overload detector will activate if there is an increase in force above that normally required to move the gate. The sensitivity is independently adjustable for the OPEN or CLOSE direction. THE SENSITIVITY ACTIVATION

POINTS ARE ADJUSTABLE SETTINGS THAT MUST BE DETERMINED AT THE TIME OF INSTALLATION. THE SETTINGS MUST BE TESTED PERIODICALLY TO INSURE PROPER OPERATION. THE MORE FREELY THE GATE WILL MOVE THE MORE RESPONSIVE THE SETTINGS CAN BE MADE. DILIGENT MAINTENANCE OF THE GATE ROLLERS AND THE GATE TRACK WILL ASSURE THE MOST RESPONSIVE OPERATION OF THE SENSITIVITY MECHANISM. (See Pagez17).

Adevise the purchaser to check the sensitivity of the Overload Device periodically and record the date tested on the Log provided on page 2 (see Figure 1).

THE IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS AND INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL CANNOT COVER ALL POSSIBLE CONDITIONS AND

SITUATIONS WHICH MAY OCCUR DURING ITS USE. IT MUST BE UNDERSTOOD THAT COMMON SENSE AND CAUTION MUST BE EXERCISED BY THE PERSON(S) INSTALLING, MAINTAINING AND OPERATING THE EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED HEREIN. DO NOT USE THIS EQUIPMENT FOR ANY OTHER THAN ITS INTENDED PURPOSE — OPERATING A SLIDE GATE.

Connections for External Entrapment Prevention Sensors

Because all gate system installations are different, the RSX1000 control panel provides independent connections for Open and Close non-contact (photoelectric) and contact (edge) sensors. In this way a photoelectric sensor could be utilized to guard the gate area when closing and an edge sensor would provide the protection when opening. Depending on the particular application a combination contact and non-contact sensor protection system for the open and close directions may provide more effective entrapment protection than a single device for both directions. See pages 4, 5, 11, 12, 13, 19, 20, 21, and 22.

SMART™ Self adjusting MAximum Run Timer

The RSX1000 has a Self adjusting MAximum Run Timer, SMART™. The amount of time for the first few cycles of operation are registered and averaged within the motor controller circuitry. After the first few initial cycles, if the gate is activated and no other command is given or an end limit (open or close) is not reached in the previously counted cycle time plus approximately 2 seconds, the operator will be turned off. See page 18.

OTHER FEATURES Auto Close Timer: Adjustable from 2 to 60 seconds, provides

an automatic closure of the gate from the full open position. See page 17 and 18.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE

WARNING!

GATE SYSTEM DESIGN AND INSTALLATION

SAFETY CHECK LIST:

• The RSX1000 operator may be installed only on a Class I

Vehicular Slide Gate. See page 3 for an explanation of the different Class locations. See the last page of this manual for the operator specifications (voltage, maximum gate weight & length etc.).

• Make sure that the gate moves freely, all rollers are in good

working order, the gate does not bind in any manner and the gate area is clean and free of irregularities. DO NOT INSTALL THE OPERATOR UNTIL ALL GATE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN CORRECTED.

• Do not increase the built-in overload detector adjustment to

compensate for a poorly working gate. A well maintained gate will ensure easy manual operation (if needed) and maximum operator obstruction sensitivity.

• Install the operator on the inside of the property/fence line. DO

NOT install an operator on the public side of the fence line or gate.

• Make sure the gate operating system is placed far enough back

from the road to eliminate traffic backup. The distance from the road, size of the gate, usage level and gate cycle/speed must be taken into consideration to eliminate potential hazards.

• The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is

supplied between the gate and any adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment.

• For ORNAMENTAL “GRILL TYPE” GATES (or any

other type of open gate where a handhold or toehold may be achieved), injuries may occur when people put arms through the openings or children “ride” the gate by standing on the bars and holding on to the

gate. THIS POTENTIAL HAZARD CAN BE MINIMIZED BY INSTALLING A MESH SCREEN ON THE GATE. Allstar strongly recommends the entire gate and adjacent fence area the gate covers when open be meshed or guarded such that a handhold or toehold cannot be achieved. At a minimum all openings on a horizontal slide gate must be guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a mimimum of 4 feet above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inch (57.15 mm) sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the fence the gate covers when in the open position. See Figure 2.

• All RSX1000 gate operators are VEHICULAR GATE

OPERATORS and as such are NOT INTENDED FOR PEDESTRIAN traffic. In installations where pedestrians passage through the fence is necessary, install a pedestrian access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the vehicular gate and the pedestrian access opening such that persons will not come into contact with the vehicular gate during entire path of travel of the vehicular gate. See page 21 for additional information.

• Use the illustration at left (Figure 3) and the diagrams and

information on pages 11, 12, and 13 to minimize the risk of injury in your design of the slide gate operator system. IDENTIFY THE ENTRAPMENT ZONES AND PINCH POINT AREAS IN YOUR GATE. Design the gate installation to minimize the risk of entrapment in these areas. Install additional safety equipment such as electric gate edges and photocells to further minimize risk. All entrapment zones are required to be protected.

• Entrapment Zones: Design in personal entrapment protection

devices to protect people from entrapment in the zones shown in Figure 3 at left and the diagrams and information on pages 11, 12, and 13. Install vertical posts with electric gate edges attached on both sides of the gate to prevent body entrapment.

• Pinch Points: Use protective measures (guards, padded edges,

etc.) to protect people from the pinch points shown in Figure 3 and the diagrams and information on pages 11, 12, and 13. Attach roller guards in cantilevered gate systems to minimize the risk of hands being caught between the top of the gate and the roller.

A: GATE SYSTEM DESIGN & INSTALLATION

• DO NOT consider the built-in overload detector as the primary

defense system. Consider all options in the gate system design.

• DO NOT connect any auxiliary equipment to the RSX1000 operator

(detectors, card readers, etc.) until the gate operator and all its functions are fully tested. Only connect one device at a time and ensure its proper function(s) before moving on to the next device.

• DO NOT locate any control device (key switch, switch, key pad,

card reader, etc.) in a position where it may be activated by a person reaching through the gate or while touching the gate in any manner. Locate all control devices a minimum of 10 feet from the gate when opened or closed.

• Outdoor or easily accessible controls must be of the security type to

prevent unauthorized use of the system.

• Install all devices that will Open, Close or Stop the gate in such a

manner that THE GATE WILL BE IN FULL VIEW WHEN THE DEVICE IS OPERATED.

• Before activating the "timer to close" option of the RSX1000,

ENSURE THE PERSONAL ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION DEVICES (operator reversing feature, edges, photocells) ARE OPERATING and install VEHICLE DETECTOR LOOPS AND VEHICLE DETECTORS for protection of user vehicles. Read the manual for information on the installation of these devices. IF VEHICLE DETECTOR LOOPS HAVE BEEN INSTALLED TO PREVENT THE GATE FROM CLOSING ON A VEHICLE, INSTRUCT THE USER TO PERIODICALLY CHECK THE OPERATION OF THE DETECTORS.

• USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN WORKING NEAR THE

BELTS AND PULLEYS when the operator cover is removed. Apply power to the operator only when instructed to do so.

• When the cover of the RSX1000 Control Box cover is removed,

high voltage will be exposed. NEVER LEAVE THE INSTALLATION WITH THE CONTROL BOX COVER REMOVED.

• ALWAYS TURN OFF THE POWER BEFORE ATTEMPTING

SERVICE OF EITHER THE ELECTRICAL OR MECHANICAL SYSTEMS.

• SECURELY ATTACH THE WARNING SIGNS provided with the

RSX1000 on the gate (one on the outside and one on the inside) where they can be seen by persons in the area of the gate to alert them of automatic gate operation. Full compliance with the UL requirements requires the signs be installed. (If the user refuses to have the warning signs installed we (as the Gate Operator Manufacturer) recommend that you note this on your records and have the user sign a disclaimer.) See Figure 4.

Figure 4

THE CONCRETE OPERATOR PAD

B: PREPARING THE SITE

Installation requires the presence of a suitable concrete pad as a base for the operator. The dimensions of this pad should be sufficient to allow at least 5" of clearance from each edge of the pad to the nearest operator mounting hole. The top of the pad should be 3" above grade to raise the operator above any standing water, while the depth of the pad below grade is dependent on the weight and size of the gate and the soil conditions at the site of the installation, also consult your local building codes. The RSX1000 cover is 34" high and is removed by lifting it vertically off the operator. THE SITE FOR THE OPERATOR SHOULD BE CHOSEN WITH AT LEAST 35" OF CLEARANCE ABOVE THE TOP OF THE UNIT.

If no suitable concrete base exists, a pad must be poured. See Figures 5 and 6 for plans for this pad. Consult local building codes for depth of base. Typical depths range from 24 to 36 inches. In either case, if vehicles are going to be operated in the vicinity of the operator, consider installation of protection bollards in front of the operator.

Figure 5: Pad Configuration

NOTE: Before connecting the operator, use a voltmeter to insure that the electrical service is 115 VAC. Connection to 220 VAC service is the most common cause of board failure in new installations and is NOT

covered by the warranty.

The RSX1000 requires a 3-wire (Hot, Common, Ground), 115

VAC, electrical circuit with a 15 Amp breaker for proper operation. In installations with more than one operator, each

operator must have a separate service from the breaker panel. Powering multiple operators from the same service can result in having to "de-sensitize" the obstruction sensing adjustment to prevent one operator from overloading the other. The electrical hookup is made in the junction box located in the right front corner of the frame. See Figure 7.

The AWG wire size for the electrical service depends on the distance of the operator from the breaker panel. Refer to the table below to determine the correct wire size. The NOMINAL column is the ideal distance from the breaker panel to the operator for a given wire size.

WIRE SIZE NOMINAL DISTANCE

WARNING!

AVOID ELECTROCUTION:

Do not route low voltage wires in the same conduit

as high voltage wires. Follow all local electrical

codes or the National Electric Code.

B : PREPARING THE SITE

The distances shown in the MAXIMUM column should never be exceeded. For distances greater than 3200', it is recommended that your local utility be contacted to install a service feeder for the installation.

Wiring from external controls such as guard shack, telephone entry, keypad or card reader systems should be brought to the operator by a conduit separate from the 115 VAC electrical hookup. Low voltage control wires MUST NEVER be routed in the same conduit as A.C. power wires. ALWAYS CONSULT AND FOLLOW ALL LOCAL

ELECTRICAL CODES.

PLACING THE VEHICLE DETECTOR LOOPS

Proper placement of vehicle detector wire loops is critical if the loops are to provide satisfactory, extended service. The most important considerations are: 1) Proper wire type and, 2) Good, tight connections from the loop to the loop terminating connector. When a "Stand Alone" vehicle detector is used, the detection loop is connected to the wire harness on the detector itself. (See WIRING VEHICLE DETECTORS, Page 14.)

The RSX1000 provides for connecting the output of two loop systems:

1) A “reversing” loop that will prevent the gate from closing on a vehicle that has stopped in the path of the gate and 2) A “free exit” loop that will open the gate by detecting a vehicle which is inside the gated area and wishes to leave. If “free exit” detection is not desired, this loop will not be needed. Note the "reversing” loop is normally made up of two independent loop layouts connected to one detector. See Figure

Two different types of installations will usually be encountered: 1) If the driveway material is already in place, saw cuts will be needed to accommodate the loop wires.

WARNING!

RISK OF ENTRAPMENT VEHICLE DETECTOR LOOPS WILL NOT DETECT SMALLER VEHICLES SUCH AS MOTORCYCLES,

of the pavement. The loop should be placed 1.5 inches below the surface of the pavement and at least 2" above any reinforcing steel The lead in wires need not be in PVC, but must have at least six (6) twists per running foot.

For a saw-cut installation, observe the method recommended in Figure 9 for the corners. When installing a two-loop reversing system it is best to bring the twisted lead wires from each loop to the operator so that the loops may be properly phased. The saw cut must be to a depth of 1.5 inches, clean and with no sharp corners. After placing the wires, it is essential that the wires be held tightly in place by the foam backing and that no voids exist that can collect water which might freeze and push the loop wires out of the slot. The sealant used should match the paving material and should not be hard setting. The lead in wires must have at least six (6) twists per foot.

NO SPLICES ARE ALLOWED IN THE LOOP OR THE LEAD IN WIRE TO THE FIRST JUNCTION BOX Above ground splices may be used providing the wire is twisted, soldered and moisture sealed. For best long term results, do not use wire nuts anywhere in the loop system. For connections to the loop detector, gas tight crimp type terminals should be used, and soldered if possible.

2) For loops where the paving material will be installed after the loop is positioned, it is necessary that the loop wires be placed in Schedule 40 PVC pipe to maintain uniform loop spacing with respect to the surface

Figure 8: Loop Diagrams

THE WIRE USED FOR THE LOOPS MUST BE HEAT AND WATER RESISTANT. CROSS-LINK POLYETHYLENE INSULATED, TYPE XLPE OR RHW IS BEST. U.S.E. IS ALSO

SATISFACTORY. DO NOT USE PVC INSULATED WIRE. WIRE SIZE SHOULD

BE #16 GA STRANDED OR LARGER.
