Proper grounding of this gate operator is a requirement for LIGHTNING
PROTECTION in lightning prone areas. To be effective, ground connections
should be made with a minimum 12 AWG, 600 volt insulated wire to a
ground point within 3 feet of the gate operator. The ground point must be
at an electrical panel, a metallic cold water pipe that runs in the earth, or
a grounding rod.

The ERD Sensor - Electronic Reversing Device (Type A) MUST be adjusted for the OPEN and CLOSE gate cycles.
When the gate encounters an obstruction during the CLOSE cycle, it will reverse to the open position and PAUSE the gate.
An input command (press remote button or exit loop) is needed BEFORE the gate will reset and close again.
When the gate encounters an obstruction during the OPEN cycle, it will reverse approximately 6 inches and PAUSE the gate.
An input command (press remote button or exit loop) is needed BEFORE the gate will reset and open again.
For the ERD Sensitivity to function correctly:
•THE RELEASE HANDLE CLAMP MUST NOT SLIP when the gate encounters an obstruction.
• Limit switches must be learned BEFORE adjusting the ERD Sensitivity.
A. Turn knob until blue LED lights up.
Maximum sensitivity reached,
Position 1 - Too sensitive for most gates.
Position 12:
•Typical gate setting.
B. Turn knob counter-clockwise to
reduce gate sensitivity while testing ERD
until desired results is attained.
(LED remains OFF for all but position 1)
IMPORTANT: When satisfied
with ERD adjustment, cycle
the gate 3 or 4 times to make
sure that the ERD sensor does
not falsely trigger during
normal gate operation.
Re-adjust if this happens.
CAUTION: Position 16 results in gate exerting
MAXIMUM force before reversing direction.
Adjusting ERD:
Typical Settings: 16 sensitivity setting positions.

Download a simple .txt file to troubleshoot
gate operator errors and view event history.
Troubleshoot EDGE 1 entrapment protection sensor:
1. Press and HOLD the STOP button & then the OPEN button together on
Matrix 1 until beeping is heard, learn mode begins.
NOTE: DO NOT press the OPEN button before the STOP button or learn
mode will NOT function.
3. Press STOP button again within 5 min. to end learn mode, beeping stops.
NOTE: If STOP button is not pressed within 5 min.
learn mode automatically end after 5 min.
2. EDGE 1 LED should be ON MC-200 if an
entrapment sensor is detected.
If EDGE 1 LED is NOT on, wiring to photocell
is bad, photocell is out of alignment, photocell
is wired wrong, photocell is bad, or sensor is
NOT normally closed (N.C.), etc.

gate cycling troubleshooting
Gate Symptom Solutions (what to check)
• Check GATE SHUTOFF switch, it should be OFF. Turn switch ON then OFF again, possible chain drop event and switch needs
to be recycled. GATE DISABLE LED should be OFF.
• Check if OPEN and CLOSE Limits have been learned. Refer to Learn Gate Positions section and learn limits.
• Check if GATE SPEED rotary dial is set to MAX position (LED on).
• Check if OPEN and CLOSE Limit Rings are secured tight. If rings are not tightened, they will slip on collar.
• Check if Clamp is tight using red handle. Use adjustment bolt indicated on handle to make adjustments.
• Check if guide pin on limit ring collar is aligned to fit in clamp guide slot.
• Check if positive stop on long arm is touching short arm in closed position. If so, re-adjust close limit ring such that
there is a min 1/4 inch gap for positive stop.
• Gate may be too heavy for operator (check manual for maximum gate weight for your model operator).
• Check if “BATTERY IN USE” LED is ON. If so, gate is on Battery back-up mode and battery is running low.
• Arm elbow and gate bracket bolts are too tight, loosen bolts. Gate hinges may be too tight.
• Operator may be in battery back up mode. check if Mode 1 switch is ON on the back of Matrix 1.
• Check if “Gate in Motion” Alarm feature is ON (“Mode 0” switch is on back of Matrix 1 and set to “ON”).
• Check if Power LEDs are ON on both Matrix 1 and MC-200. Check if “MOTOR ON-LINE” LED and “LIMIT SWITCH ON-LINE”
LED are both ON on Matrix 1.
• Check if PRIMARY GATE “open RIGHT / open LEFT” switch is set properly.
• Check if GATE DISABLE LED is ON. If so, check if GATE DISABLE input is active.
• Check if "EDGE 2" LED or "PHOTOCELL" LED is ON or BLINKING on MC-200. If so, check entrapment sensor wiring or
missing jumper.
• Check if “BATTERY IN USE” LED is ON. IF so, battery may be too low and gate is kept closed (BATTERY BACK-UP MODE
switch set to “Leave Closed”).
• Check if Power LEDs are ON on both Matrix 1 and MC-200. Check if “MOTOR ON-LINE” LED and “LIMIT SWITCH ON-LINE”
LED are both ON on Matrix 1.
• Check if "EDGE 1" LED is ON on MC-200. If so, check entrapment sensor wiring and alignment.
• Check if any loops are active, check SAFETY LOOP, CENTER LOOP or EXIT LOOP LED is ON.
• Check if any open command inputs are active (check if LED is ON on the matrix 1 for: RADIO, FIRE DEPT, MAX OPEN,
STRIKE, KEYPAD/RDR, PHOTOCELL). Check device connected to the input that LED light is turned ON.
• Check if PRIMARY GATE "open RIGHT / open LEFT" switch is set properly.
• If "EDGE 2" LED or "PHOTOCELL" LED is ON on MC-200. If so, check entrapment sensor wiring or missing jumper.
• If "BATTERY IN USE" LED is ON and BATTERY BACK-UP MODE switch = "leave Open", then battery may be too low and gate is
kept OPEN.
• If “BATTERY IN USE” LED is ON and BATTERY BACK-UP MODE switch is set to “OPEN 1-TIME”, then if AC power is lost, gate
will automatically open 1 time.
• If "CLOSE TIMER" is OFF, then gate will not close automatically. A close command (i.e radio, close) is required to close gate.
• Loop detector is defective (CENTER, EXIT, or SAFETY).
• Loop has a short or open. Measure loop resistance.
• If "ERD" LED is ON, an obstruction (ERD event) is detected. If no apparent obstruction, select a less sensitive ERD setting.
• If "EDGE 2" LED is ON, entrapment sensor is triggered or jumper on connector is broken.
• Gate Open and Close Limits have not been learned properly. Relearn limit positions using jog RT and jog LT.
• Check if Clamp is on collar guide pin and is mounted securely on output shaft.
• Check if PARTIAL OPEN feature is turned ON. Re-learn partial open position or turn off feature.
• Only for OPENING gate (not during closing cycle): Check if PARTIAL OPEN feature is turned ON. Relearn partial open position
or turn off PARTIAL OPEN feature.
• Bad hinge - hinge pin offsets during motion causing abrupt gate movement.
• Operator placement is not proper or arm pivot point on standard gate is not at least 1/4 of gate length (1/3 of gate length for
heavy / uphill gates).
• If “MATRIX ON-LINE” LED or “LIMIT SWITCH ON-LINE” LED are OFF on MC-200, then check wiring between (MC-200 &
Matrix 1) or (MC-200 and Limit switch box).
• Check if "PHOTOCELL" LED is ON on MC-200. If so, check entrapment sensor wiring or missing jumper
• Motor hall sensor cable may be compromised. Unplug cable from MC-200 “Motor Inputs” and ensure wires are not broken
and are crimped properly.
• Check if closing photo cell is misaligned with reflector (check photocell on MC-200 "EDGE 1" input or Matrix 1 "Photocell"
input.
• Use jog LEFT/RIGHT buttons to learn new positions instead of using open or close buttons on Matrix 1.
Gate beeps but will not open
or close for any command
given.

and closing.
Gate does NOT open.
Gate does NOT close.
Gate stops prematurely and
beeps, moves in opposite
direction.
Gate will stop before
reaching desired limit
setting.

•AC power is lost, operator is in battery back-up mode.
•Check if AC POWER ON/OFF SWITCH is ON.
•Measure power input DC voltage on Matrix 1 (“24V/GND” - 2-pin black connector), (expected reading
34 VDC if AC on, 25VDC if on battery back-up).
•Battery not plugged in to BATTERY IN port on battery charger (BC-7 module)

•An entrapment event has occurred, check if an entrapment sensor was triggered (see if EDGE 1,
EDGE 2, or PHOTOCELL LED is on).
•An ERD event may have occurred. Check for gate obstruction.
•ERD sensitivity is too high for application. Re-adjust ERD setting on MC-200, (see ).
•Sensor on EDGE 1 input (photocell or edge) may have detected an obstruction while closing gate.
