SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ThE GP-SW050 SWING GATE OPERATORS  
Because automatic gate operators produce high levels of force, all system designers, installers, and consumers  
have an obligation to know the potential hazards associated with improperly designed, installed, or maintained  
gate operator systems. Keep in mind that the gate operator is just one component of the total gate operating system.  
Each component must work in unison to provide the consumer with convenience, security, and safety.  
This manual contains various safety precautions and warnings for the system designer, installer, and consumer.  
Becausetherearemanypossibleapplicationsofthegateoperator,thesafetyprecautionsandwarningscontained  
in this manual cannot be completely exhaustive in nature. They do, however, provide an overview of the safe  
design, installation, and use of this product. CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS,  
WARNINGS, AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE THE SAFE SYSTEM DESIGN, INSTALLATION,  
AND USE OF THIS PRODUCT.  
The precautions and warnings in this manual are identified with these  
warning symbols.

Important Safety Instructions  
ImPORtant Safety InStRUctIOnS For the Installer  
WARNING–To reduce the risk of injury or death:  
I. Before Installation  
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.  
2. Verify this operator is proper for the type and size of gate, and its frequency of use.  
3. Make sure that the gate has been properly installed and swing freely in both directions. Repair or replace  
all worn or damaged gate hardware prior to installation. A freely moving gate will require less force to  
operate and will enhance the performance of the operator and safety devices used with the system.  
4. for pedestrian use (see page 5). NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF A MOVING GATE.  
II. During Installation  
1. Install the gate operator on the inside of the property and fence line. DO NOT install an operator on the  
outside of the gate where the public has access to it.  
2. Be careful with moving parts and avoid close proximity to areas where fingers or hands could  
be pinched.  
3. Determine the best obstruction sensing setting for this installation. The gate MUST stop and reverse  
on contact with an obstruction. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel, retest the gate operator.  
Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly can increase the risk of injury or death  
(see page 18).  
4. Additional safety equipment such as photo beams and safety edges MUST be installed to prevent  
bodily injury (see page 9).  
5. Mount access controls away from the gate (minimum distance is 10 feet). The user must have full view  
of the gate but be unable to touch it while operating the controls.  
6. Secure outdoor or easily accessed gate operator controls in order to prohibit unauthorized use of  
the gate.  
III. After Installation  
1. Review ALL safety instructions with the consumer/end user and explain the basic operation and safety  
systems of the entire gate operator system.  
2. Inform the consumer/end user that servicing of the operator must only be done by an  
experienced technician.  
3. Attach the warning signs (included) to each side of the gate to alert public of automatic gate operation.  
Take a photo of warning signs installed on gate. Record the date of the photo for your reference.  
4. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. Leave IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (included)  
with consumer/end user.

Important Safety Instructions  
ImPORtant Safety InStRUctIOnS Specific to Secondary  
Means of Protection Against Entrapment  
As specified by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. UL 325 (30A.1.1), automatic gate operators shall have provisions  
for, or be supplied with, at least one independent primary and one independent secondary means to protect  
against entrapment. GTO gate operators utilize Type A, an inherent entrapment sensing system, as the primary  
type of entrapment protection. The GP-SW050 operators have provisions for the connection of Type B1, B2, or  
D protection to be used as the secondary type of entrapment protection.  
1. For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor (Type B1) in accordance with UL 325 (51.8.4 [h]):  
A. Refer to the sensor manufacturer’s instructions on the placement of non-contact sensors for each type of  
application.  
B. Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle trips the sensor  
while the gate is still moving.  
C. One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists,  
such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.  
2. For gate operators utilizing a contact sensor (Type B2) in accordance with UL 325 (51.8.4 [i]):  
A. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted both  
inside and outside of a vehicular swing gate system.  
B. Ahard wired contactsensorshall belocatedandits wiring arranged so that the communication between  
the sensor and the gate operator is not subjected to mechanical damage.  
C. A wireless contact sensor such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator  
for entrapment protection functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not  
obstructed or impeded by building structures, natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless  
contact sensor shall function under the intended end-use conditions.  
3. For gate operators utilizing an actuating device requiring continuous pressure to maintain opening or  
closing motion of the gate (Type D) in accordance with UL 325 (51.8.4 [e]):  
A. The gate operator controls must be placed so that the user has full view of the gate area when the gate  
is moving.  
B. Warning signs (see page 6) shall be placed adjacent to the controls.  
C. No other activation device shall be connected.  
ENTRAPMENT ALARM (UL 325; 30A.1.1A)  
The GP-SW050 operators are designed to stop and reverse for 2 seconds when the gate comes in contact  
with an obstruction or when an object activates the non-contact sensors. Additionally, these operators  
are equipped with an audio entrapment alarm which will function if the unit obstructs twice while  
opening or closing. This alarm will sound for a period of 5 minutes or until the operator receives an  
intended signal (e.g., transmitter signal) and the gate returns to a fully open or fully closed position.

will slowly run the gate when pressed and stop the gate when released.  
4. Once at the desired open position, press and hold the SET LIMIT button for 3 seconds or until  
the alarm sounds and STATUS LED is on. At this time, release the SET LIMIT button.  
5. Be prepared to stop the gate when it reaches the closed position.  
CLOSED LIMIT SETTING:  
1. If not already closed, press and release the close button.  
2. Press and release the CLOSE button on the board and be prepared to press the STOP button  
when the gate reached the desired closed position/limit.  
3. The JOG buttons can be used to bring the gate to the precise closed position. The JOG buttons  
will slowly run the gate when pressed and stop the gate when released.  
4. Once at the desired closed position, press and hold the SET LIMIT button for 3 seconds or until  
the alarm sounds and STATUS LED is on. At this time, release the SET LIMIT button.  
5. Open the gate to allow it to stop on its own.

stall Force and auto-close adjustments  
Stall Force Adjustment:  
IMPORTANT: For safety reasons, the STALL FORCE potentiometers are set at the “10 o’clock” position  
at the factory.  
The obstruction sensitivity is independently adjustable for each direction of travel. Upon sensing an  
obstruction, the gate will stop and reverse direction for approximately 2 seconds.  
1. Turning the potentiometer clockwise (toward the MAX position) increases the amount of force  
the operator applies to an obstruction. Turning the potentiometer counter-clockwise (toward the  
MIN position) decreases the amount of force the operator applies to an obstruction.  
2. Use a small screwdriver to adjust the appropriate potentiometer and operate the gate until it can  
run without obstructing and reversing direction.

Auto-Close Adjustment:  
The Auto-Close potentiometer allows the user to set the time that the gate will stay at the open  
position/limit before it automatically starts to close the gate.  
This feature can be turned off by turning the AUTO CLOSE TIMER potentiometer all the way  
counter- clockwise. It is shipped from the factory in the OFF position (auto close feature is disabled).  
The auto close time is adjustable from 3-120 seconds.  
This feature is only enabled when the gate is at the open limit.  
This feature is disabled if the following inputs are activated.

installing a Dual gate operator system  
IMPORTANT: With a dual gate system certain control board settings and connections are required on the MASTER  
unit only and some are required on both the MASTER and the SLAVE unit. The list below gives an overview.  
Gate Sequencing - DIP #2 on Master Unit  
Alarms - wired to MASTER only  
Entry Devices - can be wired to either unit  
Adjustable Auto Close - MASTER controls opening and closing for both gates)  
Locks - controlled by the MASTER unit  
Setting Limits - set DIP#3 on each operator to MASTER position (OFF) in order to set the limit for each  
gate. After the limit is set, DIP #3 can be set to SLAVE (ON) position for dual mode operation.  
Dual gate link connection  
These two (2) terminals provide communication connections for dual gate applications where one  
unit operates as a master and the other as slave operator.  
Shielded twisted pair must be used. The shield (drain wire) connection should be connected at  
Master Unit Only to the LINK COM terminal but not both.  
Connect the DUAL LINK terminals of the two operators together.  
Connect the LINK COM terminals of the two operators together.  
Set OPTIONS DIP Switch #2 and #3 accordingly.  
If these terminals are not connected, each operator will automatically operate in single mode, if  
DIP #3 is in MASTER position (OFF). If DIP #3 is set to the SLAVE position (ON) the unit is  
non-functional.  
Recommended Belden Wire®, 22 AWG, type 8761, 9461, 9451, 1266A or equivalent.
