1) Warnings
Please read this instruction manual carefully before the
installation of gate-automated system.
This manual is exclusively for qualified installation
personnel. Powertech Automation Inc. is not responsible for
improper installation and failure to comply with local
electrical and building regulations.
Keep all the components of PL500 system and this manual
for further consultation.
In this manual, please pay extra attention to the contents
marked by the symbol:
Be aware of the hazards that may exist in the procedures
of installation and operation of the gate-automated
system. Besides, the installation must be carried out in
conformity with local standards and regulations.
Do not make any modifications to any components except
that it is mentioned in this manual.
Do not try to manually open or close the gates before you
release the gear motor.
If there is a failure that cannot be solved and is not
mentioned in this manual, please contact qualified
installation personnel.
Do not use the gate-automated system before all the
procedures and instructions have been carried out and
thoroughly read.
Test the gate-automated system weekly and have
qualified installation personnel to check and maintain the
system at least every 6-month.
Install warning signs (if necessary) on both sides of the
gate to warn the people in the area of potential hazards.
If the system is correctly installed and used following all
the standards and regulations, it will ensure a high degree
of safety.
Make sure that the gates work properly before installing
the gate-automated system and confirm the gates are
appropriate for the application.
Do not let children operate or play with the
gate-automated system.
Do not cross the path of the gate-automated system when
operating.
Please keep all the control devices and any other pulse
generator away from children to avoid the gate-automated
system being activated accidentally.

Make sure the notices included in 1.1 General safety precaution “WARNINGS” has been carefully observed.
● Release the gearmotor with the proper release key.
● Make sure the gate can be moved manually during opening and closing phases with a force of max.
390N (40 kg approx.)
● Lock the gearmotor.
● Using the Key selector switch, push button device or the radio transmitter, test the opening, closing and
stopping of the gate and make sure that the gate is in the intended direction.
● Check the devices one by one (photocells, flashing light, key selector, etc.) and confirm the control unit
recognizes each device.

In order to use one 4 channel remote to operate with additional device besides the original gate automation system.
Install a receiver box to connect with the 2nd device (such as another Powertech Slider)
or the 3rd device (Such as garage automation system)
Original gate automation: Using Button A & B (Pedestrian Mode) on the remote to control gate opener
2nd device: Install an external receiver box, connect output 1 to the 2nd device (such as another Slider, shown as
below) use button C on the same remote to control the 2nd device
