Gates that open Gto User manual

Thank you for purchasing the GTO Digital Keypad. Be sure to read the directions carefully

and completely. Before permanently mounting the keypad, please program the keypad and test

its range.

IMPORTANT: Your keypad may need to be hard wired due to the fact that it must accept

interference according to FCC regulations listed below. For example, applications

that are relativity close to cell towers or airports may receive intermittent interference and

require hard-wiring.

The GTO Digital Keypad is a multipurpose keypad that can work with other applications in

addition to GTO gate openers and locks. As a wired keypad it can operate garage door openers

and gate openers, that require 24 volts or less and accept normally open contacts.

As a wireless keypad, the keypad must be used in conjunction with the GTO garage door

receiver kit (part # RB709U-NB) on any other garage door.

SAFETY NOTE: Never install the keypad where a person can reach through the gate to

activate it, or where a person can touch the gate while activating the keypad. The recommended

minimum distance between the gate and keypad is 10 ft.

Keypad Description

Installing Batteries

NOTE: 3 AA batteries are required to power the keypad unless an external

power supply such as the gate openers power source is used. Low voltage

wire from the external power source must be connected to the POWER IN

terminals on the keypad control board, if batteries are not installed.

Step 1: Remove the two screws from the bottom of the keypad and sepa-

rate the keypad from its housing.

Step 2: Install 3 AA batteries (not included).

DIP switches to match your entry transmitter’s DIP switch settings.

NOTE: If you have not changed your open-

er’s transmitter code from the factory setting,

see the “Setting Your Personal Transmitter

Step 2: Wire the keypad to the gate opener control board. Strip 3/16” off the ends of one pair of low voltage wires. Attach the wires to

the terminal block marked RELAY on the keypad control board as shown. Then connect wire #1 to the CYCLE terminal on the gate

opener control board, and wire #2 to the COM terminal on the gate opener control board

To wire the power supply to the keypad attach the wires to the AC/DC POWER IN terminal on the keypad control board as shown to

the right. Connect the other end to the opener’s battery - one end to the POSITIVE pole and

the other to the NEGATIVE pole.

NOTE: For a hard-wired application the jumper between the two terminals on the keypad

control board must be connected (ON) as shown. This will disable the 318 MHz RF

transmitter.

Step 3: Slide the keypad into the cover and secure with the

small screws provided.

Step 4: With the power to the

opener turned OFF. Remove

opener control board cover and

feed enough of the low voltage

keypad wire through a strain

relief to reach the gate opener

control board terminals.

Step 5: Attach the wires from the

keypad to the opener control board terminal

blocks as shown below.

Step 6: Replace the control board cover and turn the power switch ON. Test the keypad by entering 1 2 3 4.

Step 7: Program your ‘Personal Master Code’ and any additional entry codes (for a total of 25 entry codes) you wish. See Program-

ming the Keypad section.

Wired Installation of the Keypad

NOTE: If you also plan to power the keypad with the gate opener’s power source, run two pairs

of wires as described below. One pair to hard-wire the keypad and the other pair to connect the

keypad to the gate opener’s battery.

Step 1: Turn the gate opener’s power switch OFF. Use 16 gauge, stranded, direct burial low

voltage wire (part no. RB509) to connect the keypad to the opener control board. Run wire

through PVC pipe from the ground to keypad and from the ground to the opener control board

to protect the wire from lawn mowers or grazing animals.

Determine how the wire will enter the keypad (i.e. from the back through a hole drilled in the

mounting post or running the wire on the surface of the post). Remove the small rectangular

knock-out on the back of the keypad cover and pull the wire into the cover. Then mount the

cover to the post using the screws provided.

Programming Confirmed: Keypad will beep 3 times.

Error Message: Status light will flash rapidly, error tone will sound for

1 second and keypad will return to “idle” mode (changes not saved).

• Entry Code is not 4 digits.

• New Master Codes don’t match (“Program New Master Code”).

• Memory is full (already 25 codes).

• No matching code is found (“Delete Entry Code”).

Normal Keypad Operation:

• If the user enters a 4-digit code that is matched to one of the 25 stored codes. The STATUS light should blink rapidly

and the beeper should beep three times to conﬁrm that a matched code is entered.

• No more than 20 key presses are allowed to obtain the 4-digit entry code.

Example:

1234 is one of the codes stored in one of the memory location.

The user can enter ‘x1234’ or ‘xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx1234’ and the gate should be activated (x is any key). If more than

20 key presses is entered without matching one of the codes then the unit’s STATUS light should be ashing rapidly

and no entry will be accepted for the next 40 seconds. The user must not enter any code for at least 40 seconds before

the unit returns to normal operation; otherwise it remains in this ‘lock-down’ mode. Once the user enters a matched

code, any subsequent key press within the next 40 seconds will re-activate the keypad.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our Technical Service Department at 1-800-543-1236 or 850-575-4144.
