WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONSWARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONSSafety overview checklist:WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury or death:General Safety Information SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONSThe Polaris Automatic Gate Operator is designed to providefor safe operation. One of the most important safety featuresof the gate operator is obstruction sensing. When thereis an obstruction that prevents the gate from opening orclosing, the gate will immediately reverse direction andreturn to the fully open or closed position. While in theprocess of returning to the fully open or closed position, ifthe gate senses an additional obstruction the gate will stopimmediately and sound an alarm. At this point the gateoperator will need to be reset by turning the power switchon the control box OFF for a minimum of ten seconds. Use this operator only with swing gates. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Never let children operate or play with gate controls.Keep the remote control away from children. Always keep people and objects away from the gate.NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVINGGATE. The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use aseparate entrance. Remember that the Polaris Automatic Gate Operatormust only be installed on gate systems meeting therequirements of the application. Ensure that you are using the correct gate operator forthe type and size of gate, its frequency of use and theclass rating. Ensure that the gate and gate operator installationcomply with applicable local codes. Contact local fire and law enforcement to arrangeemergency access procedures. Keep people, animals, and property away from thegate area. Do not let children play in or near the gatearea. Use caution with moving parts to avoid injuring fingersor hands. Consider installing contact sensors, or non-contactsensors to provide additional safety and protectionagainst entrapment. Never activate the gate operator until you ensure thatthe area is clear of people, pets, or other obstructions.Watch the gate until it stops. Controls must be far enough from the gate so that theuser is prevented from coming in contact with the gatewhile operating the controls.The Polaris gate operator includes an adjustment for settingthe sensitivity of the obstruction performance. Refer to page27 for Obstruction Sensitivity Set Up details.Vehicular gates are large heavy objects. Polaris Automaticgate operators provide a convenient way to open and closethe gates. Since the gate system and its components exerta high level of force to open and close the gate, they canbe dangerous, causing severe injuries or death to you andothers.Your safety and the safety of others depend on theinstaller of this system to read, understand, and followthe information and instructions in this manual.The Polaris Automatic Gate Operator is designed to complywith UL 325, the safety standard covering automatic gateopening systems. UL 325 requires that gate openingsystems have provisions for, or be supplied with, at leastone independent primary and one independent secondarymeans of protection against entrapment. The primarymeans of entrapment protection in the Polaris AutomaticGate Operator is Type A, an inherent means of entrapmentprotection. The secondary means of entrapment protectionin the Polaris Automatic Gate Operator is Type B1, theprovision for the connection of a photo cell or other noncontact sensor.The gate operator’s built-in means of entrapmentprotection (Type A) may not be sensitive enough toprevent bodily injury in some circumstances. Secondarymeans of entrapment protection (Type B1), such as aphoto cell are suggested for enhanced safety.5

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONSProtection against EntrapmentImportant! Study fig. 1 and keep safety foremost at alltimes.Entrapment areas for a proper pull-to-open installationEntrapment Area 1Hinged edge of the gate and the fence postEntrapment Area 2Between the gate and the gate postEntrapment Area 3The path of the gateEntrapment Area 4The space between the gate in the open position andany object such as a wall, fence, tree, etc.Entrapment Area 5Pinch points between the operator and gate or postArea 1Figure 1FenceFenceArea 2Area 5Area 3Area 4Gate in open positionDriveway6

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONSEntrapment AlarmWarning Signs and Labels(UL 325; 30.1)In compliance with UL 325 the Polaris Automatic GateOperator is designed to stop and reverse direction withintwo seconds of sensing an obstruction. In addition, thePolaris Automatic Gate Operator activates an audiblealarm if the unit incurs an obstruction twice while openingor closing. This alarm sounds for five minutes, or untilthe operator receives a renewed, intended input from ahardwired control such as the Push Button Control. At thatpoint the gate returns to a fully open or fully closed position.Turning the power switch on the control box OFF for tenseconds and back ON also deactivates the alarm.Required Safety Precautions for GatesWarning signs alert people of automatic gate operation.They are required when installing the Polaris Automatic GateOperator. If pedestrians will be in the area, install a walkthrough gate for their use.Figure 2Warning SignsThe warning signs must be installed on both sides of thegate.These warning signs and decals must be used. If anywere missing when the gate operator was purchased,immediately contact Polaris Automatic Gate Operators forreplacements.Warning signs (two enclosed) to be installedon each side of the gate (three to five feetabove the bottom of the gate)Figure 3Install warning decals,one on each side of gateoperator7

WIRING OPERATORLED DescriptionsPower Save Mode (Recommended for SolarApplications)Proper wiring and performance can be verified by checkingthe operation of the LED’s located on the circuit board.Polaris Automatic Gate Operators come equipped with aPower Save feature. The default mode is for all LED’s to beoperational as described. If it is desired to conserve power tomaximize battery life (recommended for the following stepscan be taken.LED #1: 18VAC OKLit when AC power is being supplied to the circuit board.LED #2: 24V OKLit when 24V converter is activated.Press and hold the PWR SAVE button for three seconds.An audible beep will sound confirming the change tothe power save mode. This will disable several LED’swhen not activated for five minutes. In Power Savemode, the LED’s will operate as described upon aninput. When the gate sits idle for five minutes, the LED’swill turn off to conserve power.LED #3: INThere are two “IN” LED’s. One near the Opener 1 terminalsand one near the Opener 2 terminals. One LED will lightwhen a single gate operator is retracting. Both LED’s will lightwhen dual gate operators are retracting.LED #4: OUTThere are two “OUT” LED’s. One near the Opener 1terminals and one near the Opener 2 terminals. One LEDwill light when a single gate operator is extending.

Press thecycle button on circuit board and the gate will begin toclose. Stop the gate using the cycle button when the desiredlimit has been reached.Step 3Press and hold the “SET LIMIT” button until one audiblebeep is heard to acquire the closed limit setting. The STATUSlight will turn on immediately upon pressing the SET LIMITbutton. The STATUS light will turn off and an audible beepwill verify the closed limit is now set.Step 4Press cycle button on circuit board to return the gate to thefully open position.Step 5Again, using the cycle button close the gate to verify itmeets the desired location. If the gate did NOT reach thedesired closed limit, proceed to step 6.WARNING: Do not use hand heldtransmitters to program primaryand secondary limits. Only thecycle button should be used untilfinal set up is complete to avoiddamage to actuators and voidingwarranty.Step 6CLEARING THE CLOSED LIMIT SETTING:a) Return the gate to the fully open position.b) Press and hold the SET LIMIT button until two audiblebeeps are heard.c) Two audible beeps will verify the closed limit setting isnow cleared.Repeat steps 1 – 5 to program the gates “closed limitsetting”.***Dip switch number 6 dictates which gate is beingaffected by the set limit button, whether setting orclearing the limit. If dip switch 6 is in the up position, itwill set or clear the limit for the secondary operator. Ifit’s in the down position it will set ot clear the limit forthe primary operator.***23
