The following list provides a high level overview of the tasks involved in installing the StrongArmPark DC gate
operator. Take a moment to review the list and check off the items as you complete the install.
Site Prep - concrete pad location/dimensions. Use template printed on the side of the sipping box.
Make sure gate installation complies with ASTM F2200 Standard Specication for Automated Vehicular
Gate Construction. And, install the supplied WARNING signs on both sides of the barrier arm and on
its chassis. Signs must be viewable by incoming and outgoing vehicular trafc.
Check for compliance with local codes, site conditions, and NEC standards.
Install gate operator - (on concrete pad use four ½ - 13 x 3.5in long concrete wedge anchors.)
Connect AC Power.
Connect red wire to DC Power Switch.
Turn DC Power ON.
Connect all accessory devices.
Check the Smart DC Controller software version. If necessary, upload the latest version from
www.hysecurity.com. See Smart Touch Analyze and Retrieve Tool.
Set the Close Timer (through the User Menu).
Set barrier arm speed, if applicable (through Installer Menu). Refer to S.T.A.R.T. (Smart Touch Analyze
and Retrieve Tool) in the Reference section.
Set the dynamic reversing sensitivity, if needed (through Installer Menu).
Set Relay User 2 to 28 or 29 and BA to 1 (breakaway arm) in the Installer Menu.
Congure changes through the Installer Menu depending on the accessory devices that you have
installed.
Give a copy of the Important Safety Information and pertinent operator instructions to the end user.
Show the end user how to:
• Remove the barrier arm from the breakaway bracket.
• Adjust physical limit stops for barrier arm open and close positioning.
• Turn the DC power switch off, which disengages the motor, and manually lift the barrier arm open.
• The location and use of the Hold Open/Hold Close toggle switch.
Take photographs of the completed installation site and save it in your business les.

Safety Information
SAFETY MESSAGES
Thesafety messagesbelowinform youabout potential
hazards that can result in injury. Safety messages
specifi cally address level of exposure to operator and
are preceded by one of four words:
DANGER,
WARNING, CAUTION
or NOTICE.
COMMON INDUSTRIAL SYMBOLS
These international safety symbols may appear on
product or in its literature to alert of potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow
these symbols to avoid possible injury or death.
Symbol Safety Hazard
Attention -
Take Notice
Danger -
Keep Away
Entrapment Zone
Possible Pinch Point
DANGER
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY.
WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD result in DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY.
CAUTION
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD result in MINOR or MODERATE INJURY.
NOTICE
Addresses practices not related to personal injury.
Indicates damage to equipment is probable if the
hazardous situation is not avoided.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Hazards,associated withautomatic gates,
can be reduced with proper site design,
installation,anduse.Installers,maintenance
crews, and owners/users must read and
follow the safety requirements found in
HySecurity® product manuals.
It is important that only qualifi ed installers
handle installation of HySecurity Gate
vehicular gate operators. A “qualifi ed”
installer has one of the following:
1.
A minimum of three years experience installing
similar equipment.
2.
Proof of attending a HySecurity Technical Training
seminar within the past three years.
3.
Signifi cant manufacturer endorsements of technical
aptitudein gate operatorinstallationand operation.
UnderwriterLaboratories(UL)andtheAmericanSociety
for Testing and Materials (ASTM) are responsible for
current safety standards and regulations regarding
gate operators and automated gates. All aspects of
gate installation must comply with the appropriate
safetystandard. Forthe mostup-to-dateASTM F2200
GateandFence Standards,refertowww.astm.org.For
UL325 SafetyStandard, referto www.ul.com.Consult
local government agencies for up-to-date rules and
regulations as certain municipalities have established
licensing,codesor regulationsthatregulate automated
gate system design and installation.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Agate operator is only a component in a gate system.
The other parts of the gate system can include the
gate, the external safety sensors, access controls,
and vehicle detectors. To have a gate system that
provides for safety, security, and reliable operation it
is essential these components operate together as a
system. It is the responsibility of the system designer
and/or installer to ensure any safety or operational
issues have been addressed.

WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children.
3.
Always keep people and objects away from the barrier arm. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE
MOVING ARM.
4.
Test the gate operator monthly. The barrier arm MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or stop when an
object activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting the force of travel, retest the gate operator. Failure
to adjust and retest the gate operator properly can increase the risk of injury or death.
5.
KEEP BARRIER ARM GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the installation and operating manual. Have
a qualifi ed service person make repairs to gate hardware.
6. The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use a separate pathway that prevents contact with the
barrier arm.
7. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
IDENTIFYING GATE OPERATOR CATEGORY AND UL 325 USAGE CLASS
The UL 325 standard covers gate operators. Within this safety standard several Usage Classes are described
that defi ne diff erent types of installations where gate operators can be applied. Some operators are restricted in
their usage application. Appropriate Usage Classes are shown in the Specifi cations.
Class I
Class I: Barrier arm gates are NOT Intended for use in a location of
one to four single family dwellings or a parking area associated with
one to four single family dwellings.
Class II
Class II: Intended for use in a commercial location or building such as
a multi-family housing units (fi ve or more single family units) hotels,
garages, retail stores or other buildings servicing general public.
Class III
Class III: Intended for use in an industrial location or building such
as factories or loading docks or other locations not accessible by the
general public.
Class IV
Class IV: Intended for use in guarded industrial locations or buildings
such as an airport security area or other restricted access location,
not servicing general public, in which access is monitored by security
personnel or via closed circuitry.
