IMPORTANT SAFETY REQUIREMENTS BY UL STANDARDS
RAMSET
Prior to installation, the following must be
observed: (per UL 325.56.8.4).
a) Install the gate operator only when:
1. The operator is appropriate for the construction of
the gate and the usage Class of the gate,
2. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded
or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.22 m) above the ground to prevent
a 2 1/4 inch (57.2 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.
3. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded,
and
4. 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. The pedestrian access opening
shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate
the gate such that persons will not come in contact with
the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the
vehicular gate.
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. Swinging gates shall not open into public
access areas.
g) The stop and/or reset button must be located in the lineof-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not
cause the operator to start.
h) A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the gate where easily visible.
i) For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor in accordance with UL 31.1.1:
1. See instructions on the placement of non-contact
sensors 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, and
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.
j) For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor in accordance with 31.1.1:
1. One or more contact sensors shall be located where
the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at
the leading edge, trailing edge, and postmounted both
inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate.
2. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the
bottom edge of a vehicular vertical lift gate.
JET
d) The gate must be properly installed and work freely in
both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch or pressure
relief valve to compensate for a damaged gate.
e) For gate operators utilizing Type D protection:
1. The gate operator controls must be placed so that
the user has full view of the gate area when the
gate is moving.
2. The placard as required by 58.1.6 shall be placed
adjacent to the controls,
3. An automatic closing device (such as a timer, loop
sensor, or similar device) shall not be employed,
and
4. No other activation device shall be connected.
f) Controls intended for user activation must be located at
least six feet (6’) away from any moving part of the gate
and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls.
Outdoor or easily accessible controls shall have a security
feature to prevent unauthorized use.
3. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the
pinch point of a vehicular vertical pivot gate.
4. 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.
5. A wireless contact sensor such as 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.

TRIM POTS
Use the “SPEED” trimmer to adjust the voltage with which the motor is powered during operation. Increasing/
decreasing this trimmer will affect the speed and torque with which the operator functions.
SPEED
12
The “ERD” trimmer is used to adjust the amount of time that the gate will continue to push before reversing.
Turning the trimmer clockwise increases the amount of time it will continue to push. At minimum setting the gate
will continue to push for about ½ second before reversing. At maximum setting the gate will continue to push
ERD
for about 3 seconds before reversing. If the ERD is triggered twice in a row it will stop the gate and the warning
siren will sound.
The “TIMER” trimmer is used with the automatic timer and adjusts the amount of time the gate will stay open
before automatically closing. The automatic timer is activated by putting the Dip Switch #3 (TIMER) in the ON
position. The timer trimmer can now be used to set the gate to stay open from a minimum of 3 seconds to a
TIMER
maximum of 90 seconds. Turning the trimmer clockwise increases the amount of delay.
The “DELAY” trimmer is used with a double gate - master/ slave configuration. The delay timer can be adjusted
to make sure that the gates open and close simultaneously. With the delay trimmer turned all the way counterclockwise the delay trimmer is off. The gates will open and close at the same time. Turning the delay trimmer
clockwise activates the delay. The gates will now open with a 3 second delay between gate #1 and gate #2. The
delay between the gates closing will depend upon how far the delay trimmer is turned clockwise; the further it is
DELAY
turned the longer the delay will be. With the delay trimmer turned to maximum delay: gate #1 will close 3 or 15
seconds after gate #2 begins to close.

DIP SWITCH
Dip Switch 1 – MODE
The control unit is in slow mode. This setting is suitable
ON
for all gates.
(used on gates under 6 ft) The unit is in fast mode. Make
sure that the gate does not strike too hard against the
OFF
mechanical stops or the operator could be damaged. If
so turn the switch ‘on’.
Dip Switch 2 – RADIO CYCLE
The operator is in cycle mode. It will start the gate moving on the first command, stop the gate on the second
ON
command, and start the motion in the opposite direction on the next command.
The unit will open or close the gate depending on the
OFF
limits. The unit will not stop if a command is received
while the gate is moving. If closing the gate opens.
Dip Switch 3 – TIMER
The automatic closing timer is activated. The gate will

automatically close according to the amount of time set
by the timer trimmer.
The automatic closing timer is inactive. The operator
OFF
must receive a command to close the gate.
Dip Switch 4 – PHO2/ EDGE
(PHOTO EYE) Safety devices attached to terminal #10
(PHO2) will cause the operator to do as follows: If the
gate is open or closed it will not move until the sensor is
cleared. If the gate is opening it stops the gate until the
ON
sensor is cleared and then automatically continues to
open the gate. If the gate is closing it stops the gate until the sensor is cleared and then automatically opens
the gate.
(EDGE) If the gate is open or closed it will not move until the sensor is cleared. If the gate is closing the safety

and apply pressure to the gate until it locks in place.
Program the operator using these steps:
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3
Locate the “PROGRAM” button on the
Star 24 control board. The red LED
lights; PH and STP should be on.
The Jet will automatically proceed to a learning mode. It will open the gate for 5 seconds (see important note below) and close the gate all the
way, then it will open the gate again all the way and close the gate.
Programming is now complete.
IMPORTANT: If during the initial programming the gate begins to close instead of open, stop the procedure by shutting off the power
and reverse the MOT 1 wires on the terminal strip. This will reverse the polarity of the motor. Repeat the programming procedure.
Press and hold the Program button for
about 2 seconds. The red LED lights
will go out. Release the Program button
when the red LED’s go out.
The red LED lights will come back on and
the yellow LED will now begin to flash.
Press the Program button again and release it immediately.
RADIO TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
JET
Locate the “REMOTE” button on
the Star 24 control board. The red
LED lights PH and STP should be
on.
Step 4
If you have more than one remote control that
you wish to program you can program them
all at this time. Simply press the button on
the remote control(s) and make sure that the
RAD light flashes to confirm the input.
Press and release the “REMOTE”
button. The red RAD LED light
should come on.
Step 5
When you have finished programming all of the
remote controls, wait for about 10 seconds until
the RAD LED light goes out. The remote controls are now programmed and ready to use.
Press the button on the transmitter (remote control) you wish to program. The RAD LED light
on the Star 24 control board should flash rapidly
to confirm that it has recognized the transmitter
input.
NOTE:
You can program up to 200
buttons on remote controls
at one time using this procedure
ADJUSTABLE SLOW DOWN LEARNING PROCEDURE
The Jet operator can be programmed to slow down at any point during the opening and closing process. This is especially useful when you
are using the operator on large gates or in compact installation. Complete the normal programming procedure for the Jet operator first to make
sure the operator is operating correctly and that the open and close stops are set properly.
Use the following procedure to reprogram the operator for adjustable slow down.
Step 1
Locate the “PROGRAM” button on the
Star 24 control board. The red LED lights;
PH and STP should be on.
Step 4
Immediately press the “REMOTE” button on the Star
24 control board. The yellow SET LED light will now
stop flashing and the Jet will begin its learning procedure. The gate will open for 5 seconds and then
close. The yellow SET LED light will remain on and
the operator is now standing by for a command input.
Step 2 Step 3
Press and hold the Program button for
about 2 seconds. The red LED lights
will go out. Release the Program button
when the red LED’s go out.
Step 5
Using either the “PROGRAM” button on the Star 24 control board or a
programmed remote control, press
the button to initiate a command.
The gate will now begin to open.
The red LED lights will come back on and
the yellow SET LED light will now begin
to flash.
Step 6
When the gate reaches the
point where you wish the slow
down to begin, press the PROGRAM or remote control button
again and the gate will slow
down.
Step 7
With the gate open use the same procedure to set the slow down point for
closing the gate: Press the PROGRAM or remote control button to begin
closing and then press it again at the point you want the gate to slow down.
When the gate is completely closed the yellow SET LED light will go out
and the programming is complete.

NOTE:
In a double gate, master/ slave configuration: The
PROGRAM button is used to set the slow down point
for the first gate and the REMOTE button is used to
set the slow down points for the second gate.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE HOMEOWNER
Ask your technician about all the features of our new Ramset operator.
Safety devices, such as reversing loops, phantom loops, photo eyes, or miller edges must be
installed on your gate before the operator may be used. Ask your technician which safety devices best suit your safety needs.
Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the controls away from children.
The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians should use a separate entrance.
Always keep people, children and objects away from the gate while the gate is in operation. No
one should cross the area of a moving gate.
Use the emergency release only when the gate is not moving & power is turned off to the unit.
Have the technician give you a demonstration of how to use the emergency release.
Keep gates properly maintained. Have a qualified gate technician service the gate operator
and gate hardware every six months to a year. This includes checking of safety devices, E.R.D.
and battery back up systems.
Warning signs must be placed on every gate in a highly visible area.
To reset the audible alarm on the gate operator you must turn the power of the unit off for
approximately 10 seconds, then back on.
Always keep a good relationship with your technician and keep his or her number handy for
future maintenance or emergencies.
Ramset wishes to thank you for trusting us
to meet your gate operator needs
