Conduit
Make one input hole for electric wires. In order to protect the wires, conduits must be set into the
concrete when it is poured. Wires within the conduit shall be located or protected so that no damage
can result from contact with any rough or sharp part.
2
PVC conduit (the conduit size should be more than
12mm in diameter)
We advise you to use two conduits: one for main
power wires, another one for control wires.
Always separate power wires from control wires.
Wire
The power wire size should be
more than 1.5mm .
The control wire size should be
more than 0.5mm .

Expansion bolt (see Fig.4)
⚫The boom gate requires a concrete pad in order to maintain proper stability. Place the boom gate
on its concrete pad and check the boom gate orientation with regard to the roadway.
⚫Mark the base hole locations onto the cement with a pencil or similar.
⚫Then move the operator to the side and drill the 4 holes on the marks that you have just drawn on
the concrete pad.
⚫Insert the (4) M12 wedge expansion bolts that are provided with the boom gate into the holes or
you can use the (4) M12 bolts, these bolts must be set into the concrete when it is poured.

Bar (see Fig.6)
Mount the bar to the assembled cubicle and lock it with the four M10×16 socket head screws.
Mount the bar cover using the three M4×5 screws.
Manual operation (see Fig.6)
In case of power failure use crank to open or close boom gate manually, use the crank as follow:
⚫Shut off the main power of the boom gate. This safety measure is mandatory to avoid any risk of
injury in case of accidental running of the motor.
⚫Insert the crank in the opening of the housing (protected by a cover).

Limit switch (N.O.) see Fig.7
⚫The adjustable limit switches are used to stop the bar in the opened and closed positions.
⚫Loose the M4 screw of open limit cam, turn the open limit cam until the open limit switch light
illuminated, then tighten the screws.
⚫Loose the M4 screw of close limit cam, turn the close limit cam until the close limit switch
illuminated, then tighten the screws.
⚫After adjusting, you can open the bar then close the bar and observe whether the bar has
successfully reached the opened (vertical) position and closed (horizontal) position. If the bar does
not reach the opened position and closed position, you can repeat the adjusting process.

Balancing spring (see Fig.8)
Correct balancing is essential if boom gate is going to work properly. Rectify balancing spring only
when the bar is in open position (i.e. the balancing spring is loose).
Four holes (ø15) on the driven lever. The boom gate is normally delivered in the first hole
(DC655Y/DCZ655Y: suitable for bar length from 5m~6m) or the second hole (DC535Y/DCZ535Y:
suitable for bar length from 4.5m~5m). If you need to change it to the third (3.5m~4.5m) or the fourth
(3m~3.5m) hole proceed as follows:
⚫When the balancing spring is loose (the bar is in open position), undo the nuts, release the
balancing spring by turning the spring adjusting rod clockwise.
⚫Connect the spring adapter to the third or the fourth hole of driven lever, tighten with pin and R pin.
⚫Connect the spring adjusting rod to the balancing spring and spring adapter by turning spring
adjusting rod anti-clockwise. Tighten the spring adjusting rod to make the balancing spring for
ideal condition of use.
⚫Fasten the two nuts.

⚫To add extra remote controls (Learning): Press the button ‘AN’(see Fig.10 control board
scheme No.13) on the control board, a beeper will be heard, then press the remote control button
which you want to use, the beeper will ring again, press the same remote control button again, the
beeper will ring at 1/2Hz frequency and then stop, the last ring is continuous. Then the learning
process is finished.
Up to 25 remote controls may be used.
⚫Erase remote controls: To erase all existing remote controls, press and hold ‘AN’ button, the
beeper will ring, release the button once the beeper stops ringing. This indicates that all the
remote controls have been erased completely.
⚫The remote control works in a single channel mode. With each press of the remote control button
the bar will open, stop, close or stop cycle.

⚫Set the bar auto-close function: (This feature can be selected to keep the bar stay open for
some seconds before it automatically closes. The auto-close time can be adjusted to between 0
and 44 seconds.) Please turn on the second and the third DIP-switch (see Fig.10 control board
scheme No.5 ‘SW’) to ON position. Press the remote control button which has been programmed
to open the bar, with the bar in vertical position, wait a few seconds according to your requirement

(the range is 0~44 sec.), this period of time is regarded as ‘auto-close time’. close the bar by
pressing the same button, after the bar stops at the horizontal position, return DIP-switch 3 to OFF
position. Thus the auto-close function has been set.
⚫Cancel auto-close function: Please turn on the second and the third DIP-switch (see Fig.10
control board scheme No.5) to ON position. Press the remote control button to open the bar. When
the bar stops at the vertical position, wait until the bar close automatically (45 sec.). After the bar
stops at the horizontal position, return DIP-switch 3 to OFF position immediately. Thus the
auto-close function has been canceled.
Note:
(1) If any button 1, 2, 3 has been set with auto-close function, then the other two buttons also have
this function. Button 4 needs to be set independently.
(2) There are two different ways to cancel the auto-close function:(a) see Cancel the auto-close
function section. (b) You also can turn off the second and the third DIP-switch to OFF position, the
auto-close function will be shut off. The auto-close feature will not function.
Activities covered in this section
Tuning the auto-reverse safety function
⚫Rotate the ‘Force Adj. VR1’knob (see Fig.10 control board scheme No.14) with a screwdriver. The
resistance may be increased or decreased by rotating clockwise or counterclockwise.
⚫If the boom gate operates freely and can auto-reverse in the event of an obstruction during closing
and stop in the event of an obstruction during opening, then the adjustment is completed.
Loop detector
⚫If loop detector detects vehicles during the bar closing, the bar will reopen immediately and stay
open until the vehicles move out of the loop, after vehicles move out of the loop, the bar will
continue to close.
⚫If loop detector detects vehicles when the bar stops at vertical or middle position, the bar will
remain stop until vehicles move out of the loop. After vehicles move out of the loop, the bar will
close.
If loop detector detects vehicles when the bar stops at horizontal position, the bar will not move.
⚫The bar will keep opening if loop detector detects vehicles during opening. After vehicles pass
through the loop, the bar will close.
Infrared photocell
⚫If infrared beam is interrupted during closing, the bar will reopen immediately.
Limit switch
⚫The switch is used to accurately stop the bar in the vertical and horizontal positions.
⚫If the bar stops at opened position (vertical) when the switch is reached, the bar will not move if
you press ‘▲’(Open) button of button switch.
⚫If the bar stops at closed position (horizontal) when the switch is reached, the bar will not move if
you press ‘▼’(Close) button of button switch.
Open priority
⚫The bar will return to open if press ‘▲’(Open) button of external button switch during closing.
