GTO UL325 SERIES installation manual Non-Contact Sensors photo beams, Exit Loop

Page 33

Non-Contact Sensors (photo beams)

If not installing a non-contact sensor skip to next section.

PLEASE NOTE: Non-contact sensors are not included with the Mighty Mule® 350.

The Mighty Mule® 350 can also accept "Safety" input from normally open "dry-contact" output devices such as photo beams connected to the SAFETY input terminal.

Refer to the sensor manufacturer’s instructions for information about installing these devices on a vehicular gate.

Make sure the power switch to the opener is turned off before connecting safety device wiring to the terminal blocks. Unplugging the transformer does not turn power to the opener OFF.

Non-Contact Sensor Connection:

Connect one of the non-contact sensor dry contact output wires to the COMMON (COM) terminal and the other to the SAFETY terminal on the Mighty Mule® 350 control board.

Exit Loop

If not installing a shadow loop skip to next section.

PLEASE NOTE: Non-contact sensors are not included with the Mighty Mule® 350.

Refer to the sensor manufacturer’s instructions for information about installing these devices on a vehicular gate.

Make sure the power switch to the opener is turned OFF before connecting safety device wiring to the terminal blocks. Unplugging the transformer does not turn power to the opener OFF.

Free Exit Connection:

Connect one of the free exit wires to the COMMON terminal and the other to the EXIT terminal on the Mighty Mule® 350 control board.

A FREE EXIT device or loop that senses a vehicle as it approaches the gate from inside the property and automatically opens the gate to allow the vehicle to exit.
