STEP 9

Run the low voltage wire from the electrical outlet to the control box. Do not exceed 1000'.

NOTE: Pull approximately 1 foot of extra low voltage wire into the control box to accommodate terminal connections. To maintain adequate charging power, use appropriate gauge, stranded, direct burial wire (see Accessory Catalog). Do not use telephone wire or any solid core wire because it will not provide adequate current. Never splice wires together.

STEP 10:

Strip 3/16" off the ends of the low voltage wire and attach ends to the transformer terminals; red wire to [RED], black wire to [BLK], (see Illustration I). A dab of household petroleum jelly on each terminal will help prevent corrosion.

We recommend crimping a spade-tongue terminal (not provided) to the end of each wire before attaching it to the transformer.

To prevent damage to transformer, make sure the exposed wire ends do not touch each other!

DO NOT plug the transformer into outlet.

The transformer will be plugged in during STEP 13.

NOTE: Wires coming from the ground to the control box should be run through PVC conduit to protect them from lawn mowers, weed eaters and grazing animals (see illustrations on page 13).

STEP 11:

Feed the low voltage wires upward through the strain relief on the bottom of the control box (see Illustration J). Pull 6" to 8" of wire into the control box.

If accessories (i.e. safety loops, card readers, etc.) are to be added during this installation, do not tighten the strain relief screw against the wires until the accessories have been connected. When all accessories have been connected, fully tighten the strain relief screw against the wires.

SL-1000, SL-2000 specifications

The GTO SL-2000 and SL-1000 are advanced gate operators designed for efficient and reliable automation of heavy-duty swing gates. These models are renowned for their robust construction and innovative technologies that enhance both performance and security.

The SL-2000 is particularly suited for large, dual-swing gates weighing up to 2,000 pounds, making it a perfect choice for commercial and industrial settings. In comparison, the SL-1000 is designed for lighter gates that weigh up to 1,000 pounds, suitable for residential and light commercial applications. Both models are engineered to provide smooth, quiet operation, which is vital for residential areas where noise reduction is essential.

One of the standout features of both the SL-2000 and SL-1000 is their advanced DC motor technology. This allows for variable speed operation, providing a slower, more controlled movement during the opening and closing cycles. Such functionality not only enhances safety but also minimizes wear and tear on the gate mechanism, ensuring longevity.

Both models are equipped with obstacle detection technology that halts the gate's movement if an obstruction is encountered. This safety feature helps prevent accidents and damage, a critical aspect in environments where individuals and vehicles are present.

In terms of installation, the GTO SL series is designed for ease of use, featuring a straightforward setup process with clear instructions and minimal tools required. Additionally, the SL-2000 and SL-1000 include a built-in rechargeable battery backup, ensuring that the gate operates even during power outages.

Security is a top priority with both gate operators. They incorporate rolling code technology in their remote controls, which changes the access code with each activation, significantly reducing the risk of unauthorized access. Furthermore, the SL series supports multiple remote controls, allowing for convenient access for users while maintaining security.

Durability is another hallmark of the GTO SL-2000 and SL-1000. Both operators are built with weather-resistant materials, ensuring they can withstand various environmental conditions. This resilience makes them a solid investment for long-term use.

In conclusion, the GTO SL-2000 and SL-1000 are state-of-the-art gate operators that combine cutting-edge technology with superior safety features, making them a reliable choice for enhancing the automation of swing gates in diverse applications. Their ease of installation, robust construction, and advanced functionalities are significant advantages for property owners seeking secure and efficient access solutions.
