Dual Gate Installations

Two operators can be used in dual gate installations. The operators communicate with each other through the 3wire COMM LINK terminals.

When one operator activates, the COMM LINK connection signals the other operator to activate. Each operator functions independently, controlling its gate and monitoring its inputs and accessories.

A three-wire shielded conductor cable is required to connect two operators together for dual operation. Use Belden 8760 Twisted Pair Shielded Cable (or equivalent) only – P/N 2500-1982, per foot).

NOTE: The shield wire should be connected COMM LINK terminal “C” in both operators.

Three of the programming functions available are only used for dual gate installations:

Dual Gate Enable

Dual Gate Enable must be set for all dual gate installations.

Stagger Mode

The Stagger Mode function determines if the operator has a delayed open or a delayed close. In dual swing gate installations, typically one operator is programmed for delayed open, and the other operator is programmed for delayed close.

Stagger Delay Time

The Stagger Time sets the length of the delay for the Stagger Mode.

See Pages 11 & 13 for details on these three dual gate programming functions.

Set the following parameters in each gate operator individually in a single gate mode before connecting the network cable and operating in dual gate mode.

1.Open and Close Limit settings

2.Open and Closed direction inherent entrapment protection (OC & CC)

After these parameters have been set, and each operator has been tested independently and is functioning correctly in single gate mode, then set BOTH operators to dual gate (dg) in the Paired Mode setup step under Basic Programming steps.
