Maintenance & Troubleshooting Guide

If your gate opener does not function properly after it is installed, use this guide before calling the GTO Service Department.

On all gates weighing 250 lb. or more, routinely grease the ball bearing hinges at least 4 times a year; more frequently if the gates are in a coastal area.

Clean the push-pull tube with a soft, dry cloth and apply silicone spray to it at least once a month.

While oxidation is a normal part of weathering of equipment that is exposed to the elements, we recommend you apply silicone spray the front and rear mounts to minimize this effect.

Audible/Buzzer/Alarm Feedback:

1.1 beep with 2 seconds off:

Limit switch error: Limit switch’s normally open and normally close inputs both open or both shorted. The alarm will automatically shut off in 4 seconds after the problem is corrected.

2.5 beeps with 2 seconds off:

Low battery condition detected: Low battery can occur if the following condition is detected: While in idle state and the battery voltage is below ~11.5 Volts.

While running and the battery voltage is below ~10.0 Volts.

The alarm will automatically shut off when the idle voltage is more than 12 Volt. The unit may continue to operate even when low battery is detected.

The STATUS LED will also blink when the buzzer is beeping. See page 36 #3 and #4.

3.1 beep when attempt to run the unit: No battery is connected.

Blown fuse

Dead cell or extremely low battery condition.

4.Alarm continuously beeps (remote does not operate unit AND not at either limits): Two consecutive obstructions have been detected without reaching the limit. Alarm will

automatically shut off after 5 minutes. ‘Power-cycle’ the unit will also shut off the alarm.

5.Learn Remote:

When a new code is learned from the remote the alarm will sound. Release the ‘LEARN REMOTE’ button will turn the alarm off. See "Setting Your Personal Transmitter Code" section on page 26.

6.Power-Cycle:

The alarm will beep for 1 second upon power up.

B)Visual/LEDs Feedback:

1.RF LED (LED2):

Blinking when there is 318 MHz signal is received. This LED is typically off when the receiver is connected and no 318 MHz signal is presented.
