Run Alarm and Pre-start Alarm

The factory default is Run Alarm on and a 3-second Pre-start Alarm. The operator’s beeper will sound 3 seconds before the operator starts. The options are:

Run Alarm Off and Pre-start Alarm Off

Run Alarm On and Pre-start Alarm Off

Run Alarm On and Pre-start Alarm On for 3-9 Seconds

Maximum Open Direction Current Setting

To detect obstacles or mechanical problems with the gate, the operator monitors its motor current. If the open current load exceeds the programmed maximum load number, the operator will stop, reverse a short distance, then stop again. The Auto Close Timer will be disabled, and another open request will be required to start the operator again. If after restart, the overload or an open obstacle happens again before the open limit is reached, the operator will lockout and sound the alarm.

To measure the motor load used during opening, while this function is being displayed, push and hold the OPEN button to open the gate. The motor current will be displayed as a load number from 0 to 99. Set the programmed load number above the measured load number, so that a minimal force (50-75 lbs.) will activate a reversal should an obstruction occur, but high enough to keep the gate moving under normal conditions without interruption.

Maximum Close Direction Current Setting

To detect obstacles or mechanical problems with the gate, the operator monitors its motor current. If the close current load exceeds the programmed maximum load number, the operator will stop, reverse a short distance, then stop again. Another close request will be required to start the operator again. If after restart, the overload or a close obstacle happens again before the close limit is reached, the operator will lockout and sound the alarm.

To measure the motor load used during closing, while this function is being displayed, push and hold the CLOSE button to close the gate. The motor current will be displayed as a load number from 0 to 99. Set the programmed load number above the measured load number, so that a minimal force (50-75 lbs.) will activate a reversal should an obstruction occur, but high enough to keep the gate moving under normal conditions without interruption.

SWR, SWD, SWC specifications

Linear SWC (Single Wire Control), SWD (Single Wire Debug), and SWR (Single Wire Radio) are advanced communication protocols widely utilized in embedded systems and electronic applications. These protocols enhance the efficiency of data transmission, reduce the number of physical connections required, and simplify the design process for developers.

The main feature of Linear SWC is its ability to transmit control signals over a single wire, allowing for straightforward connectivity between microcontrollers and various peripherals. This approach minimizes the complexity of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and reduces the space needed for connections, making it ideal for compact designs. Linear SWC operates based on a master/slave architecture, where the master device initiates communication, and the slave devices respond.

SWD, primarily used for debugging embedded systems, is a two-pin interface that supports high-speed data transfer with minimal pin usage. Unlike traditional JTAG, SWD is simpler and more efficient, allowing developers to perform debugging and programming tasks with fewer resources. The SWD protocol offers features such as breakpoint management, memory read/write capabilities, and real-time variable monitoring, empowering developers to optimize their code and increase debugging efficiency.

SWR is focused on wireless communication, leveraging a single wire for transmitting radio signals. This technology is particularly advantageous in applications requiring minimal hardware while maintaining robust connectivity. SWR supports various modulation techniques and can operate in different frequency bands, making it versatile for various use cases. The single-wire approach reduces the complexity of antenna design and enhances the overall reliability of wireless communications in challenging environments.

One of the key characteristics shared by SWC, SWD, and SWR is their ability to reduce power consumption. By minimizing the number of connections and optimizing signal paths, these protocols significantly decrease the energy required for data transmission. Additionally, their compatibility with a wide range of microcontrollers and integrated circuits contributes to their widespread adoption in modern electronic designs.

In summary, Linear SWC, SWD, and SWR serve critical roles in the evolution of embedded systems, offering unique features, advanced technologies, and efficient characteristics. Their capability to simplify designs, reduce power consumption, and enhance overall communication quality makes them essential tools for engineers and developers in today's fast-paced technological landscape. As the demand for compact, efficient solutions grows, these protocols are poised to play an increasingly significant role in future innovations.
