The transformer: Two things can cause failure: the first is shorting the leads during the installation, or letting the strands touch at the terminal on the control board. The second is a static charge (generally associated with a lightning storm or power outage); use of a surge protector will help.

Testing the battery: This is a 12 volt 7 Ah battery. The proper way to test this is to perform a load test. Place the voltmeter on D.C.; put the red probe on the (+) positive terminal and place the black probe on (-) negative terminal. Then activate the unit and watch the voltmeter. The drop should not be more than 1 volt.

Note: A loose battery terminal will cause the same symptoms that a bad battery will cause. Terminals should be secure and corrosion free.

Remote control range: This will vary at each installation. (see FCC disclaimer on page 23), but generally varies from 50 ft. to 100 ft.

¥Make sure that the receiver is located above metal fences.

¥Moving the receiver even a few inches can change the range of operation.

¥Move the receiver as far from the motor as possible to avoid the chance of electrical interference.

¥Check or change the battery in the transmitter.

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.
