If it is desired that the driveway illuminate when the gate is activated, a light delay timer may be installed. The light delay timer will switch power on to the light for two minutes, then shut power back off. The timer relay is capable of switching up to 10 Amps which will handle most flood or spot lights available. A general hook-up diagram for the light and timer is shown at left.

The standard auto close timer built into the circuit board can be adjusted to between 0 and 45 seconds. Some installa- tions may require that the gate must stay open for more than 45 seconds before it automatically closes. The extended auto close timer may be hooked up as shown at left. This optional timer can be adjusted to automatically close the gate after the gate has been open between 1 and 100 minutes. The extended timer will add time onto the auto close timer already on the board. For more control, reduce the timer adjustment on the main control board to zero seconds and make all adjustments with the extended auto close timer knob.

For added safety, a warning alarm may be installed in the gate operator to give audible warning that the gate is in motion. This will in some cases give extra time to get out of the way of the moving gate. The warning alarm is an ear piercing 120 decibel, dual tone, piezo siren that operates on 12 Volt DC. To install the alarm, mount the siren next to the circuit board and connect the positive wire to terminal 12 (12VDC). Connect the negative wire to limit switch 1 NC or limit switch 2 NC for the alarm to sound in the open or closed directions. Contact the manufacturer for connecting the alarm to sound in both directions. If the alarm is too loud, the sound may be partially muffled by applying tape over the two holes where the sound comes out.
