ul 325 compliant
installation requirements
AInstall the gate operator only when:
1The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage Class of the gate,
2All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 6 feet (1.83 m) above the
ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inch (57.2 mm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in that
portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position,
3All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and
4Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
BThe operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The
pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come in contact with
the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
CThe gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and
closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas.
DThe gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator. Do not over-tighten the
operator clutch or pressure relief valve to compensate for a damaged gate.

If a vehicle tries to push gates
open, arms will give when NOT
in the locked position and allow
gates to move without damaging
the gate operators.
The tamper relay will be
activated for a few seconds
which will trigger a camera or
alarm system if desired.
When replacing an existing gate operator, the arm may not be able
to conform to the preferred arm position (90° from gate in open
position). The positions illustrated below can be acceptable as long
as the gate operator cycles smoothly and there is NO gate hesitation
when gate starts cycling in either direction.
After you’re satisfied testing the arm in the FULL OPEN and FULL CLOSED positions, weld gate bracket and arm.

A remote power supply is for installations where it is too costly or difficult to trench a 115/230 VAC power line to the operator
but instead run a low voltage power line to the operator. A MAX Magic Box Kit (sold separately) is required to remotely install a
Remote MAX Megatron Toroid box.
Install the MAX Magic Box near the 115 VAC or 230 VAC input AC power source, up to 1000 ft away from gate operator.
NOTE: A MAX Magic Box kit is required for EACH gate operator when using dual gate operators.

the gate from closing on a vehicle in it’s path.
They will stop or reverse the cycling of the
gate while a vehicle is in or near the gate’s
pathway.
Center Loop
Will ONLY HOLD the gate in the Full Open
Position when a vehicle is on the center loop.
However, it WILL NOT stop or reverse the
gate once it starts to close.
Exit Loop
Automatically opens the gate for exiting
vehicles without having to use a radio
transmitter (remote control). The exit loop
can be placed a minimum of 4 feet away from
the safety loop or far enough away from the
gate so it has opened by the time the vehicle
approaches it.

1. MONITORED Sensors MUST be wired to inputs BEFORE they can be learned.
Any unused inputs MUST be jumpered, see previous page.
2. A Sensing Edge or Photo Cell can be wired to either input 2 or 3.
3. Press and HOLD the STOP button & then the OPEN button
together on Matrix 1 until beep is heard, learn mode begins.
NOTE: DO NOT press the OPEN button before the
STOP button or learn mode will NOT function.
4. LEDs WILL be ON for each detected sensor on MC-200.
LEDs WILL be ON for BOTH MC-200s when dual operators
are used. If an LED is not on and it should be, wiring to
sensor is bad, photocells are out of alignment, photocells
are wired wrong - N.C. or N.O. depending on which
photocells are used (see below) or sensor is bad etc. and
must be corrected. When all LEDs are ON that should be ON, proceed to next step.
5. Press STOP button again within 5 min. to learn sensors and
end learn mode, beeping stops.
Wired Inputs are now MONITORED.
If STOP button is not pressed within 5 min. learn mode terminates.
If no sensors are detected then factory default setting (Edge 2 and
EDGE 1 Note: CLOSING direction ONLY.
