manual abstract
The Safety Sensors are designed to detect an obstacle in the path of the electronic beam and stop the gate operator. CARTON INVENTORY Verify carton inventory below. Hex Head Bolt (2) Wing Nut (2) IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY SENSORS When properly connected and aligned, the sensor will detect an obstacle in the path of its electronic beam. The sensors must be installed so that the sending and receiving eyes face each other across the gate, no more than 24" (61 cm) above the ground. The sensors can be installed on the left or right of the gate as long as the sun never shines directly into the receiving eye lens. The safety sensors must be securely fastened to a solid surface such as metal or a treated wood post (not provided). The light beam path must be unobstructed during normal operation of the gate. NOTE: Due to the variety of gates and mounting applications, PVC conduit, wire, mounting hardware and posts are not provided. Refer to your local hardware store for additional hardware. WARNING To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH: • Disconnect ALL electric and battery power BEFORE performing ANY service or maintenance. • Correctly connect and align the safety sensors. • Install the sensor so beam is NO HIGHER than 24" (61 cm) above ground. • This product is for use with Chamberlain® GA400D, GA420D, and GA200D gate operators ONLY. OPEN and ENTRAPMENT Safety Sensors Safety Sensors (Includes receiving and sending sensor) APPLICATIONS ENTRAPMENT SAFETY SENSORS This will pause an opening gate until the obstruction has been removed. Upon removingtle obstruction, the gate will continue to open. This will have no effect on the gate closing. OPEN (PHOTO EYE/IR) SAFETY SENSORS • GA400D/GA420D - This will pause an opening gate until the obstruction has been removed. Upon removing the obstruction, the gate will continue to open. This will have no effect on the gate closing. • GA200D - This will stop a closing or opening gate, once the obstruction is removed the gate will continue to operate normally upon the next command given. CLOSE (PHOTO EYE/IR) SAFETY SENSORS • GA400D/GA420D - This will reverse a closing gate to the full open position (open limit). This will have no effect on a gate opening. • GA200D - This will stop a closing or opening gate, once the obstruction is removed the gate will continue to operate normally upon the next command given. CLOSE Safety Sensors POWER Disconnect power and batteries to the operator. SAFETY SENSOR POSTS Use a metal or treated wood post (not provided) to elevate the sensors. Safety sensors must be installed no higher than 24" (61 cm) above the ground. NOTE: For ideal protection the safety sensors should be installed as close to one another as possible with the maximum distance up to 30' (9.1 m). CAUTION To AVOID damaging gas, power or other underground utility lines, contact underground utility locating companies BEFORE digging. TRENCH FOR WIRING Before digging, contact local underground utility locating companies. Dig a narrow trench 6" (15 cm) deep from control box to safety sensor posts. Be careful not to damage any buried wire. Run conduit from control box to safety sensor posts and run low voltage wire* (not provided) through conduit. OPEN SAFETY SENSORS ENTRAPMENT SAFETY SENSORS CLOSESAFETYSENSORS 6" (15 cm) trench for safety sensor wires *UL approved Class 1 or Class 3 direct burial/underground, sunlight/UV resistant 16 gauge 2-conductor/standard wire. ASSEMBLE SAFETY SENSORS Insert hex head bolt through safety sensor and slide safety sensor into bracket. Secure with wing nut. v MOUNT SAFETY SENSORS Mount safety sensor assembly to post using appropriate hardware (not provided). Safety sensors must be installed no higher than 24" (61 cm) above the ground. NOTE: Install safety sensor assembly with the two holes in the bracket facing up and the LEDs visible at the top. Mark Safety Sensor Post No Higher than 24" (61 cm) Safety Sensor Post Safety Sensor Assembly V Safety Sensor Post WIRE SAFETY SENSORS 1. Separate wires. 2. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from low voltage wires. 3. Combine all like-colored wires and twist together with wire nuts. NOTE: If the safety sensor wires need to be extended, the polarity must be maintained when connecting the safety sensors to the control board. The black striped wire connects to the negative (-) terminal and the red wire connects to the positive (+) terminal. MODEL GA200D ONLY • Insert red lead wire into IR+ terminal. • Insert black striped lead wire into IR- terminal. MODELS GA400D AND GA420D ONLY Entrapment Safety Sensors • Connect ENTRAPMENT safety sensor wires to P8 terminal. Open Safety Sensors • Connect OPEN (Photo Input) safety sensor wires to P7 terminal. Close Safety Sensors • Connect CLOSE (Photo Input) safety sensor wires to P9 terminal. ALIGN SAFETY SENSORS 1. Reconnect power and batteries to the operator.
