Linear VS-GSWG manual Gate Operation, Operation Indications

Gate Operation

Open Button

Opens the gate. If the Controller is programmed to stop opening the gate at mid-travel, a constant press of the OPEN button will override the Mid-travel Stop and completely open the gate. If the Auto Close Timer is set, it will be suspended until the OPEN button is released.

Close Button

Closes the gate if the gate is open. Also closes the gate if the gate is in the process of opening.

Stop Button

Stops the gate from opening or closing at any time.

Single Input

Opens the gate if it’s closed and closes the gate if it’s open (open-close programming option). Activating the input while the gate is moving will reverse the gate.

Can be programmed to stop the gate while the gate is moving (open-stop-close programming option).

Fire Department Input

Fully opens the gate when the input is activated. Overrides the Mid-travel Stop and Auto Close Timer (if either is programmed for the gate). The gate will lockout in the open position without sounding the alarm. Press the STOP button to release the lockout.

Open Input

Functions the same as the OPEN button.

Open Obstruction

While the gate is opening, any open obstruction signal will cause the gate to stop, reverse a short distance, and then stop again. The Auto Close Timer will be disabled, and a renewed input will be required to start the gate again. Should the gate be restarted and the obstacle signal occur again prior to reaching a limit, the gate will stop again, lockout, and sound the emergency alarm.

Close Obstruction

While the gate is closing, any close obstruction signal will cause the gate to stop, reverse, and travel to the full open position. Should a open obstruction input or an open direction inherent entrapment condition occur prior to the gate reaching the open limit, the operator will lockout and sound the continuous tone alarm. 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. If the auto close timer is set, when the close obstruction input is cleared, the gate will close when the auto close timer expires.

Reverse Input

If the reverse input is triggered while the gate is closing, the gate will reverse to the full open position. If the Auto Close Timer is set, when the reverse input is cleared, the gate will close when the Auto Close Timer expires.

Open Loop

Functions the same as the OPEN button.

Reverse Loop

Functions the same as the reverse input.

Shadow/Reset Loop

Holds the gate fully open or fully closed while triggered. If open, the gate closes immediately when cleared if Anti-tailgate is enabled.

Operation Indications

During normal operation, the Controller’s displays will indicate current operating conditions and status.

Power-up Display

When the Controller powers up, dashes will show on the display, then the fi rmware version number, then the gate type (SL for slide and swing gates).

Exiting programming restarts the Controller. The power-up display will show upon the restart.

Idle Condition

While the Controller is idling, waiting for a command, the display will show circulating dashes.

Last Gate Position/Condition

When the gate moves or stops, the display will show the status for up to one minute.

•Stop is displayed as St

•Full Close is displayed as FC

•Full Open is displayed as FO

•Entrapment is displayed as En

Pre-start Delay

During the pre-start delay, the display will countdown the number of seconds remaining before the operator starts.

Reverse Delay

If the gate travel direction is reversed from a user activation or reversing device, and a reverse delay is set, the display will count down the delay time in seconds before the operator restarts.

Run Timer

While the gate is opening or closing, the number of seconds running time is displayed.
