Linear VS-GSWG manual Error Indications, Entrapment, Comm Link Connection Failure

Error Indications

During abnormal operation, the Controller’s displays and beeper will indicate the error condition that has occurred.

Entrapment

If an entrapment condition occurs detected by two repeated open or close obstruction triggers, the Controller will lock the operator out. The beeper will sound constantly and the gate will not operate. To reset the Controller press the STOP button or press the RESET button on the operator’s cover.

WARNING

The Stop and/or Reset button must be located in the line-of- sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start.

COMM LINK Connection Failure

In dual gate installations, if there is a connection failure between the two operators, the COMM LINK indicator will blink once a second. During this condition the gate will not operate, except if triggered by the FIRE DEPT input, which functions normally.

MGT Obstacle Transmitter Trouble

If any MGT transmitters are used with the operator, their supervision feature will alert the Controller if there is any trouble with the transmitter. MGT transmitters send hourly status reports and will send low battery reports when the transmitter has a low battery. The MGT transmitters also have a tamper detection switch that will trigger when their case is opened.

When the Controller detects a low transmitter battery, a tamper signal, or missing transmitter status reports, the gate will still operate normally, but the beeper will change as follows:

•The Pre-start Alarm will beep twice as fast.

•The Run Alarm will beep twice as fast and continue for fi ve minutes after the gate stops.

•The sounder will “chirp” every fi ve seconds when the gate is idle.

Correct the trouble (close case, replace battery, or replace transmitter) to clear the obstacle transmitter trouble indications.

Maximum Run Time Exceeded

If the Maximum Run Time is exceeded, the Controller stops the operator the same as if a double obstacle has occurred in an entrapment condition. The entrapment alarm sounds constantly, and is cleared by pressing the STOP button or the RESET button on the cover. After the STOP or RESET button is pressed, because the Maximum Run Time has been exceeded, the sounder will beep twice every fi ve seconds. The next operation of the gate will clear the indication.
