1. Install the gate operator only when the following
conditions have been met:
• The operator is appropriate for the type and usage
class of the gate.
• All openings of a horizontal slide gate have been
guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to
a minimum of 4 feet (1.25 m) above the ground to
prevent a 2.25 inch (55 mm) diameter sphere from
passing through openings anywhere in the gate or
through that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate
covers when in the open position.
• All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded.
• Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
2. The operator is intended for installation on gates used
by vehicles only. Pedestrians must be provided with a
separate access opening.
3. To reduce the risk of entrapment when opening and
closing, the gate must be installed in a location that
allows adequate clearance between the gate and
adjacent structures. Swinging gates shall not open
outward into public access areas.
4. Before installing the gate operator, ensure that the gate
has been properly installed and that it swings freely in
both directions. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch or
pressure relief valve to compensate for a damaged gate.
5. User controls must be installed at least 6 feet (1.83
m) away from any moving part of the gate and located
where the user is prevented from reaching over, under,
around or through the gate to operate the controls.
Controls located outdoors or those that are easily acces-
sible shall have security features to prevent unauthorized
use.
6. The Stop and/or Reset buttons must be located within
line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control
shall not cause the operator to start.
7. All warning signs and placards must be installed
and easily seen within visible proximity of the gate. A
minimum of one warning sign shall be installed on each

Internal Entrapment Prevention:
This vehicular gate operator is equipped with an inherent (Type A) entrapment sensing device. The system will sense an obstruction
in both the open and close cycles, and will reverse the direction of the gate travel upon encountering an obstruction. If the system
detects a second obstruction before reaching the full open or close limit after the initial reversal, a warning alarm will activate and
the operator will require a reset before resuming normal operation. This is called a “Hard Shutdown”. Please read and follow the
“Shutdown Conditions” section of this manual for more directions.
External Entrapment Prevention:
Non-contact and/or contact sensors must be installed to provide external entrapment prevention in accordance with UL325 section
3.1. Use only UL325 compliant devices and low voltage (24V) devices. Carefully follow the installation manual for the UL325 device
used for installation, usage, and maintenance.
Non-Contact Sensors (Photo Beams):
Non-contact sensors generally are photoelectric cells or like devices. For gate operators utilizing non-contact sensors:
Refer to the diagram below for placement of non-contact sensors.
Use care to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is still moving.
One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where a risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable
by a moving gate or barrier. Use caution when installing non-contact sensors since some devices only cover a select area. For
example, a photo beam will not cover the full height of a gate/fence area. Refer to the diagram below.
Contact Sensors (Edge Sensors):
Contact sensors generally are sensing edges or like devices. For gate operators utilizing contact sensors:
Refer to the diagram below for placement of contact sensors.
One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such the leading edge, trailing edge,
and posts mounted inside and outside of the vehicular slide gate and motor.
Hardwired contact sensors shall be located and its wiring arranged so the communication between the sensor and the gate operator
is not subject to any mechanical damage.
Wireless contact sensors such as ones that transmit radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment prevention
functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures, landscaping
or similar obstructions. All wireless contact sensors shall function under the intended end-use conditions.
Open beams help protect
areas between the gate and
an adjacent fence or wall.
CAUTION: This beam only
detects at the installed height.
Standard Reverse beams help
prevent the gate from hitting ob-
structions during the close cycle.
CAUTION: This beam only detects
at the installed height.

Gate Operator Bolt Down:
To align the operator to the gate and bolt it down:
1. Remove the gate operator cover and place the operator on the concrete pad. Position the operator as determined in “Gate
Operator Location. Make sure the gate and operator are parallel and level with each other.
2. Mark the mounting holes and remove the operator. Drill the mounting holes to the required depth and diameter for the sleeve
anchors being used. It is recommended to use 3/8” x 4” sleeve anchors. The use of sleeve anchors allows greater exibility
and makes the installation and alignment much easier.
3. Clean the mounting holes and install the sleeves. Position the operator over the anchors. Recheck to make sure the gate and
operator are parallel and level with each other. Tighten the anchor bolts to securely hold the operator.
The FSW900 vehicular gate operator is designed to be mounted on a concrete pad. Select a location for the gate operator to be
installed. For pad location and size:
1. Determine the location for the operator to be installed. Determine the location of the output shaft as described above. Then
determine the location of the concrete pad following the drawing below
2. Follow all local building codes to determine the required depth of the concrete pad. The average concrete pad should be 24”
wide x 28” long x 24” deep. Extend the pad 4” above ground.
3. When the exact location of the operator can be predetermined, all conduits may be located in the concrete pad terminating di-
rectly under the operator. Extend each conduit a minimum of 1” above the level of the concrete pad. See the Conduit Location
diagram below. It is suggested to install a minimum of four (4) conduits: (1) High Voltage Conduit, (1) Low Voltage Conduit, (1)
Loop Lead Wire Conduit, (1) Accessory Conduit.
4. When the exact location of the operator can not be predetermined, bring all conduits up to one side and terminate in a Bell
Box. Make connections to the operator using water-tight ex conduit.
5. Form the concrete pad and pour concrete. Allow the concrete to cure for 48 hours before removing forms and mounting the
operator.
6. Do not place mounting bolts in the concrete while pouring. Bolts may drift in wet concrete making the operator location inac-
curate.

Power Switch Location
The gate operator uses a built-in power switch to control power to the operator and controller. This switch should be turned OFF
during installation and service. Failure to use this switch can result in unexpected gate movement. Please note:
1. The switch is located on the LEFT side of the control box.
2. DOWN position = OFF. UP position = ON.
3. This switch must be used to turn OFF AC and battery power. Only disconnecting AC power still allows battery power to the
operator, controller, and accessories.
4. Turn OFF until the installation is complete.
AC Power Guidelines
Under normal conditions, the gate operator will use a single phase AC power line to operate the gate, charge the batteries, and
power gate accessories. Use the following guidelines when installing the AC power:
1. Check the local wiring codes in all cases and follow all local building codes. Wiring and hookup should be performed by a quali-
ed electrician/installer only.
2. AC power should be supplied from a circuit breaker panel and must have its own dedicated circuit breaker. This supply must
include a green ground conductor.
3. Only use UL approved 14 AWG or larger 600 Volt Insulated Wire. Use the following chart to determine the AC wire size. This
information is for suggested use only - Check your local codes before installation.
4. Properly ground the gate operator to minimize or prevent damage from power surges and/or lightning. Use a grounding rod if
necessary. A surge suppresser is recommended for additional protection.

Two plug-in power plugs are located on the back of the controller. These plugs are for low voltage accessories and are separately
fused. Low voltage, low current draw transformers may be plugged into these outlets for accessory power. DO NOT USE THESE
POWER OUTLETS FOR INSTALLATION OR SERVICE TOOLS. Each plug supplies 110 VAC when AC power is active to the gate
operator. If AC is not available, the power plugs will not supply power. Accessories requiring power during battery backup modes
should use the 24 VDC located on the controller terminals.
Additional accessory power may be found on the controller terminals. The controller terminals supply 24 VDC for accessories. This
power is available during AC and battery power modes. When AC power is active, accessories will be supplied 24 VDC without a
power draw on the batteries. When the battery backup mode is active, accessories will be supplied 24 VDC from the batteries. If
the battery power mode is used frequently, consider the current draw of the accessories. The lower the current draw, the longer the
battery power supply will last. Additional 24 VDC for accessories may be found on the Radio Terminal, Edge/Photo Terminal, and
External Loop Terminal. A connection between 24V DC+ and GND will supply power.
Battery Power Connection
If AC power is connected, the system does not need the batteries to function. However, the batteries must be connected for the
Power Fail Battery Backup features to operate. When AC power is active, the batteries will charge until fully charged. Once the
batteries have fully charged, the system will stop charging. Charging is automatic when AC power is available. The system should
be prewired with the batteries. If not, to connect batteries to the system as showed below.

Master/Slave Connection
The operator can be used in a Master-Slave conguration to control the two leafs of a bi-parting gate. That can be done with a
wired or wireless connection. The wired connection should be the default choice if there is a way to bring a cable across the gate
opening. If that’s impractical you can use the wireless connection accessory WMS100 to establish the communication between
Master and Slave. In the latter case you need to make sure there is no metal blocking the line of sight between the two operators,
for example a metal gate with no openings.
To connect two operators together:
1. Determine which operator is the Master and which operator is the slave. All external devices such as loop detectors and
safety devices must be wired directly to the Master unit. If one gate travels farther than the other the gate that travels
farther must be the Master
2. Turn Slave Operator DIP Switch 3 to ON = SLAVE
3. Turn Master Operator DIP Switch 3 to OFF = MASTER
4. WIRED CONNECTION: in a separate conduit, run a 6-conductor cable (twisted pairs) between the Master operator and the
Slave operator. Make the connections on the Master/Slave Terminal Block following the schematic below. (Recommended
Wire: Outdoor Rated CAT 5 Cable. If shielded make sure the shield is connected on one side only)

Clockwise Turn
INCREASE Sensitivity
(Reverse the gate more easily)
Counter-Clockwise Turn
DECREASE Sensitivity
(Reverse the gate less easily)
For the Reverse Sensor to function correctly, the gate must be properly installed and work freely in
both directions. Repair or replace worn hardware. DO NOT use sensitivity to compensate for a gate in
need of service.
Reverse Sensitivity Adjustment
The gate operator is equipped with an inherent (Type A) entrapment sensing system. The sensor detects obstructions in both the
open and close path of the gate. There is an OPEN SENSITIVITY Adjustment and a CLOSE SENSITIVITY Adjustment. To adjust
the sensitivity:
1. Activate the gate to open.
2. While the gate is running open, slowly rotate the OPEN SENSITIVITY adjustment clockwise to INCREASE the sensitivity until
the gate stops in mid-travel.
3. Gently rotate the OPEN SENSITIVITY adjustment counter-clockwise 1/8 turn to DECREASE the sensitivity.
4. Activate the gate to close.
5. While the gate is running closed, slowly rotate the CLOSE SENSITIVITY adjustment clockwise to INCREASE the sensitivity
until the gate stops in mid-travel.
6. Gently rotate the CLOSE SENSITIVITY adjustment counter-clockwise 1/8 turn to DECREASE the sensitivity.
7. Operate the gate a few times to be sure it fully cycles without stopping.
8. Place an immobile object in the open path of the gate to stop the gate while in travel. The gate should stop and enter a Soft
Shutdown upon striking the object.
9. Place an immobile object in the closed path of the gate to stop the gate while in travel. The gate should stop and enter a Soft
Shutdown upon striking the object.
10. Repeat steps 2 - 6 until the correct sensitivity adjustment is found.
Reverse Sensitivity Shutdown
Upon a rst obstruction, the reverse sensor will:
1. Stop the gate and reverse it approximately two (2) inches.
2. Disable the Timer To Close Feature until the gate operator receives a new command = Soft Shutdown.
3. Any standard input can reactivate the gate and return it to normal operation.
Upon a second consecutive obstruction before the gate reaches either limit, the reverse sensor will:
1. Stop the gate.
2. Disable the gate operator = Hard Shut Down.
3. Sound the audio alarm for ve (5) minutes or until the operator has been reset.
4. Only resetting the operator will reactivate the gate and return it to normal operation.
5. To reset the operator in a Hard Shut Down situation: Press the Reset button on the left side of the controller, activate the Reset
input or turn the power switch OFF and back ON.
6. Verify proper operation of gate and components

Close Time Delay Adjustment
The gate operator is equipped with a built-in automatic timer to close feature. This feature should be set to the OFF position until
proper safety and reverse devices have been installed. CAUTION: Turning on the Close Time Delay without proper safety and
reverse devices can cause serious injury, death, and property damage. The Close Time Delay can be set to from 1 to 90 seconds.
When active, the Close Time Delay will hold the gate open until the internal timer has timed out and then allows the gate to close.

Photocell sensor connections
To comply with the UL325 standard monitored safety inputs must be used to protect every entrapment zone. An entrapment zone is
dened as a location or point of contact where a person can be entrapped between the moving gate and a rigid object. The opera-
tor has inputs for entrapment protection photo sensors in the opening and closing direction. These sensors can be monitored for
their presence and correct operation at the beginning of each cycle.
To enable monitoring of the Photocell inputs set Dip Switch 1 OFF. To monitor only the Close input Set Dip Switch 11 OFF, to moni-
tor both Close and Open inputs set Dip Switch 11 ON. When an input is monitored the corresponding photocell must be connected
otherwise the operator will not start. To verify the input is wired properly the corresponding LED must be lit, see gure below.
Photo Close safety input: The Input is only active during close cycle.
1. An input during the close cycle will stop the gate and reverse it to the full
open position. If the Close Timer option is ON it will be restarted when the
input clears.
2. If the Open safety input is active before reaching the full open position, the
gate will stop. When the input is cleared, the gate will continue to reverse
open.
Photo Open safety input: The Input is only active during open cycle.
1. An input during open cycle will stop the gate and initiate a short reverse
2. The gate will remain stopped until the input is cleared.
3. When the input is cleared, the gate will continue to open.

Edge sensor connections
To comply with UL regulations monitored safety inputs must be used to protect every entrapment zone. An entrapment zone is de-
ned as a location or point of contact where a person can be entrapped between the moving gate and a rigid object. The operator
has inputs for entrapment protection edge sensors in the opening and closing direction. Use FAAC CN 60 E edge sensor control-
ler and the schematic below for proper monitoring. The sensors can be monitored for their presence and correct operation at the
beginning of each cycle.
To enable monitoring of the the Edge inputs set Dip Switch 1 ON. To monitor only the Close input Set Dip Switch 11 OFF, to monitor
both Close and Open input Set Dip Switch 11 ON. When an input is monitored the corresponding edge controller must be con-
nected otherwise the operator will not start. To verify that the input is wired properly the corresponding LED must be lit, see gure
below.
Edge Close safey input: Input is only active during close cycle.
1. An input during the close cycle will stop the gate and initiate a short reverse
2. When the edge close input is cleared the gate will remain in a stopped position
until a renewed intended activation input is received (open, close, re, access,
radio). If the close timer option is ON it will be disabled until a full cycle com-
pletes.
Edge Open safety Input: Input is only active during open cycle.
1. An input during open cycle will stop the gate and initiate a short reverse
2. When the edge open input is cleared the gate will remain in a stopped position
until a renewed intended activation input is received (open, close, re, access, radio).
