4.3 Installation Steps
4.3.1 Preparation before Main Machine Installation
Before installing the door opener, please confirm that the door were installed
correctly, please ensure that the door can be manually operated smoothly, and the
door limit stopper can effectively prevent the door to continue moving.
Please keep a distance of 40-50mm between the door bottom and the ground for
installing the electric lock. If electric lock is not required, the distance between the
door bottom and the ground should be ≥20mm;
The recommended mounting height of the 2 main machines is around 300 ~
800mm above the ground, and make sure there are reliable fixed points for mounting
brackets.
Cable bury
In order to ensure the normal operation of the door opener and protect the cable
from damage, please use two PVC pipes to bury the motor and power cables, and the

control cables separately. One PVC pipe for motor and power cables, the other one
for control cables.
Mounting brackets fixing
In order to install the SW400DC main machines firmly, it is recommended to use
the expansion screws to fix the mounting brackets.
4.3.2 Accessory Installation
a) Before installing the main machines, please install the wall bracket on the wall first,
then fix the connecting bracket, finally install the front mounting bracket on the door.
Note: Please detect by gradienter before fixing to ensure that the front
mounting bracket and the connecting bracket are in the same level.

b) The connecting bracket and wall bracket can be connected according to different
conditions, please refer to figure 5.
Figure 5
c) Users should prepare power cables for the control box and the main machines by
themselves due to the different installation environment. The cores for the control box
power supply cable should be more than 3, the cores for the motor cable is 2. If users
need to install external accessories like electric lock, infrared sensor, alarm lamp,
external button switch etc., please increase the embedded cables accordingly, please
make sure the sectional diameter of electric lock cable is over 1.5mm², sectional

diameter of other cables is over 0.5mm². The cable length should be determined by
users according to their installation situations.
Note: The outlet on the PVC pipe should be downward in order to avoid the rain
water flowing into the pipe along the cable.
d) Before the installation, please unlock the two main machines. Unlock method:
Remove the cover, insert the manual release bar, rotate the bar until it’s released, as
shown in Figure 6, then turn the telescopic arm, you’ll find it is stretched easily.

Warning
To ensure safety, please install the limit stopper at the close limit position
when the door opens inward (as shown in figure 8).
Before installing the main machine, please make sure the main machine and
components are in good mechanical performance and the door can be manually
operated flexibly.
One control unit can optionally drive one main machine or two main machines.
Earth leakage circuit breaker must be installed on where the gate movement can
be seen, and the minimum mounting height for the control box should be over
1.5m to avoid being touched by kids.
After installation, please check whether the mechanical property is good or not,
whether gate movement is flexible or not after unlocking, and whether the
infrared sensor (optional) is installed correctly and effectively.

5.3 Digital Screen Setting
When the control board is working, the users can check working state of gate opener
by digital screen on the control board.
: no input;
: under opening state;
: under closing state;
: error;
:manual mode;
: travel setting;
5.4 Travel Setting (VERY IMPORTANT)
In the first installation of gate openers, the installer need to set open and closed
limit switch positions for running the travel.
Fully open both sides of the gate and lock the clutch, and then press and hold the "-"
button on the control board until the digital screen shows "SU". After this step, the
gate will firstly run towards the closing direction and stop, and then the gate will
automatically open. When the two swing gates are fully open, the gates will
automatically close for the second time, and the travel setting will be completed when
the gates are closed. If the distance of starting slow speed of gate is not appropriate,
adjust the "SLOW DOWN " button to revise the distance.
Note:
If the gate suddenly stops during travel setting, please increase the resistance
force.
If the gate didn’t stop when meets the obstacles during travel setting, please
appropriately reduce the resistance force.

Installer must redo travel setting after modifying the "SPEED" trimmer.
5.5 Trimmers Setting
Obstacle Sensibility Trimmer
To adjust the sensitivity of obstacle -- clockwise to increase, counterclockwise to
reduce the sensitivity of obstacle. If there are environmental effects, such as heavy
winds, adjust the trimmer according to environment.
Slow Speed Distance Trimmer
To adjust slow speed distance -- clockwise to increase, counterclockwise to decrease
slow speed distance. Please do not set very short slow speed distance, to avoid the
gate collision.
Gate Moving Speed Trimmer
To adjust gate moving speed -- clockwise to accelerate, counterclockwise to slow
down. The trimmer can be adjusted to change the opening and closing travel time.
This adjustment must be finished before travel setting.
