IMPORTANT NOTICES
This manual is used as a supplement to the installation instructions that are provided with the
vehicular gate operator. This manual references only the battery backup system and its connections
to the vehicular gate operator. Refer to the operator installation manual for all other instructions.
The optional battery backup system installed in your vehicular gate operator is designed as a
convenience enhancement only. It is not designed or intended to provide continuous gate operation
during a power outage. Its sole purpose is to provide a method to open the vehicular gate to allow
unimpeded traffic flow when the gate and access control system is without power.
If your access control system requires 100% power backup and continuous operation when primary
(AC) power has failed, a power inverter / backup system, such as DoorKing’s Model 2000, is
required.
•The battery backup system cannot provide continuous gate operation during a power outage.
•Operation of this system is limited to cycling the gate to the open (up) position one time only.
•The battery backup system requires testing on a monthly basis to insure the batteries are
fully charged and that the system is operational.
•The battery backup system uses two 12-volt, 3.0 amp-hour gel-cell batteries. These batteries
should be replaced every two years on average, or sooner if required.
•Batteries are affected by temperature. Cold temperatures will reduce the effectiveness of the
batteries and the backup system. High temperatures will result in a shortened battery life.
•Batteries are not covered under warranty.

1.1 OPERATING MODES
This battery backup system consist of a control board (2340-010), motor and power supply (batteries)
providing a completely redundant drive system to open the gate should a power outage occur. This
backup system is not designed to maintain continuous gate operation; rather it provides a convenient
method to open a gate during adverse conditions. If continuous gate and access control system
operation is required, refer to the DoorKing Model 2000 Inverter / Backup Power System.
When installed in slide or swing gate operators, the backup system can be set to operate in either a
manual (for residential applications) or automatic (for apartment complexes, gated communities, etc.)
mode of operation. The system will only operate in automatic mode when installed in a barrier gate
operator.
Manual Open (slide, swing gates only) – Residential Only
Manual mode is designed for residential applications only. In manual mode (switch 1 OFF), the
battery backup system will not open the gate if a power failure occurs until a manual input, either from
a wired push button or RF transmitter, is received. This allows the gate to remain closed upon a loss
of AC power, but provides a method to open the gate when desired. In manual mode of operation,
the RF receiver is connected directly to the battery backup control board and is powered by this board
(see page 18). During normal operation, when the relay in the radio receiver closes (a valid
transmitter code has been received), this “signal” is passed through the backup system control board
through terminal 4 and is feed directly to the gate operator main control board open input. If a power
failure occurs, the radio receiver is powered from the batteries maintaining its operation. When a
valid RF transmitter code is received under these conditions, the backup control board signals the DC
motor to start and the motor will run for the set run time. A switch closure (push button) across
terminals 1 and 2 on the backup control board will have the same result.
NOTE: The RF transmitter will open the gate provided that a stand-alone type receiver is in use. If
the gate system uses a receiver that outputs the transmitter code in weigand format to an access
controller (such as DoorKing models 1833, 1835, 1837 or 1838), then opening the gate from the RF
transmitter under power outage conditions will not be possible with this system.
Automatic Open – Apartment Complexes, Gated Communities, Etc.
In automatic mode (switch 1 ON), the battery backup system will automatically open the gate or raise
the barrier arm approximately 2-3 seconds after a loss of AC power. Automatic mode is always used
for gates in general access applications such as gated communities, apartment complexes, etc.
Automatic mode must be used when the system is installed in barrier gate operators.
Automatic Restart
Once AC power is restored, the battery backup board can be set to automatically “re-key” the gate
operator (switch 3 ON) to establish normal operation, or can be set to require an input (switch 3 OFF)
before the gate operator resumes normal operation.
Page 5

1.2 ADJUSTMENTS
The DIP-switch located on the battery backup circuit board is used to setup the backup system for the
type of operator it is installed in, and to program how the backup system will respond when a power
outage occurs.
SWITCH FUNCTION SETTING DESCRIPTION
1 Operation OFF
ON
Residential applications. Gate will remain closed when a power
outage occurs. A radio receiver input or switch closure across
terminals 1 and 2 will cause the gate to run to the open position.
Apartment complexes, gated communities, etc. Gate will
automatically open when a power outage occurs. Switch must be
ON for 1601, 1602 barrier gate operators.
2 Direction OFF
ON Set so that the gate runs to the open (up) direction upon loss of AC power.
3 Automatic
Power-up
Activation
OFF
ON
When AC power is restored, an input (push button, loop, radio
receiver, etc.) is required to return the gate to normal operation.
When AC power is restored, a 1-second pulse is sent to the gate
operator input to automatically restore normal operation.

RUN TIMER
The run timer (see next page) sets the amount of time that the DC motor will run after it is activated
from the backup system circuit board. Adjust the run timer so that the gate opens to approximately
six inches of the full open position and then shuts off. Do not allow the DC motor to run long
enough to slip the operator clutch or stall the DC motor. Damage to the circuit board may
result from this condition. Clockwise increases the run time, counter-clockwise decreases the run
time.
NOTE: The run timer is not used when the backup system is installed in the 1601 or 1602
barrier gate operators.

2.6 RESIDENTIAL APPLICATIONS
Battery backup systems used in residential applications may use an RF receiver to open the gate
upon a power outage rather than the auto-open feature that is used in general access applications.
This allows the residential gate to remain closed until it receives a command to open from the radio
receiver. To disable the auto-open feature, set switch 1 to the OFF position.
•If RF transmitters are used to open the access gate, connect the radio receiver to terminals
1-2-3 on the battery backup control board as shown in Figure 9. Terminal-1 is RADIO
RECEIVER COMMON, Terminal-2 is the RELAY CONTACT, terminal-3 is RADIO
RECEIVER POWER.
•Connecting the radio receiver in this manner allows the receiver to be powered from the
battery backup system during power outages. This will permit a transmitter to open the gate
during a power outage if the auto-open feature is not used.
•If your gate access system uses an RF receiver that outputs the received transmitter data in
weigand format to an external weigand controller, then the transmitter will not open the gate
unless the weigand controller has its own backup power system to provide it with backup
power when primary (AC) power fails.
