- SW 1-Switch 3: Determines if the output of the loop detector (DoorKing plug-in loop detectors only) installed into the EXIT loop port will be sent directly to the microprocessor to open the gate (Normal), or if the output is directed to Terminal #4 where it can then be connected to other input terminals.
- SW 1-Switch 4: Turns the auto-close timer on or off. Maximum time that the close timer can be set for is approximately 23 secs.
- SW 1-Switch 5: OFF setting is Standard Reverse for a CLOSING gate. An input to terminal #8 (e.g.: N.O.-photo beam gets obstructed, NOT entrapment protection) AND/OR reverse loops get activated will stop and reverse the gate back to the full open position. If the auto-close timer is ON, when gate reaches the open position, timer will not close the gate. Another input command is needed to reset and close the gate. DO Not use the ON setting.
- SW 1-Switch 6: When the gate overlap is OFF, the DUAL gate operators will start the open and close cycles at the same time. This is the normal setting for a SINGLE gate operator. Turning the gate overlap ON when using dual gate operators will cause the secondary operator to start the OPEN cycle 1-2 seconds before the primary operator. The primary operator will start the CLOSE cycle 1-2 seconds before the secondary operator. This feature is useful when a magnetic lock is used to secure the gates.
- SW 1-Switch 7: Sets up the circuit board for single or dual (Primary / Secondary) gate operation.
- SW 1-Switch 8: Input power switch. Switch MUST be in the OFF position for the 115 VAC control box. DO NOT turn switch ON.

Note: 3 and 5 limit LEDs can be Open or Close limits depending on DIP-switch SW 1, switch 1 and 2 settings.
Adjust the Secondary operator limit rings if dual operators have been installed. DIP-switch SW 1, switch 2 controls secondary operator opening direction. DIP-switch SW 1, switch 7 MUST be ON.
2.3 Limit Sensors Adjustment Continued
6006 Limit Sensors ONLY
Power to the circuit board must be ON when adjusting limit sensors.
If factory wired jumpers are installed on operator terminals, they must be removed or operators will not function.
[Diagram shows 6006 operator handle unlock and rotation, gate movement, limit assembly adjustment, and notes on LEDs and wire colors.]
Note: 3 and 5 limit LEDs can be Open or Close limits depending on SW 1, switch 1 and 2 settings.
IMPORTANT: The operator MUST OPEN GATE upon initial power up and OPEN command. If it closes, shut off power and reverse DIP-switch SW1, switch 1 setting.

6400 Limit Sensors ONLY
Power to the circuit board must be ON when adjusting limit sensors.
[Diagram shows 6400 operator cover plate removed, illustrating unlocking the handle, moving the gate, sliding the limit assembly, and tightening the nut. Notes on embedded magnet activation, limit assembly positions, wire colors, and LEDs.]
IMPORTANT: The operator MUST OPEN GATE upon initial power up and OPEN command. If it closes, shut off power and reverse DIP-switch SW1, switch 1 setting.
Note: 3 and 5 limit LEDs can be Open or Close limits depending on DIP-switch SW 1, switch 1 and 2 settings.
Adjust the Secondary operator limit sensors if dual operators have been installed. DIP-switch SW 1, switch 2 controls secondary operator opening direction. DIP-switch SW 1, switch 7 MUST be ON.
2.4 Inherent Reverse Sensor Adjustment
This gate operator is equipped with an inherent (Built-In) adjustable reversing sensor (Type A) for entrapment protection according to UL 325 standards. The gate reverses upon encountering an obstruction in opening or closing cycles. For correct function, the gate must be properly installed and work freely.
The ideal adjustment allows the operator to move the gate through its entire travel cycle without reversing, but reverses upon contact with an obstruction with no more than 40 Lbs of force.
The amount of force depends on the reverse sensitivity potentiometer.
Adjust the operators reversing sensitivity:
CAUTION: Keep pedestrians and vehicles clear of the gate while adjusting and testing sensors!
While operator has AC power:
- Press the Full Open button to cycle the gate OPEN. (Note: "FULL OPEN" button uses Auto-Close timer if ON).
- While gate is opening, slowly rotate PRM - Primary reverse sensor clockwise until the reverse LED lights up and the gate reverses. Rotate counter-clockwise approximately 1/8 turn to decrease sensitivity (LED turns off). Wait for LED to turn off before adjusting.
- Press Full Open (or wait for Auto-Close timer) and CLOSE the gate. If it reverses (LED lights up), rotate the primary reverse sensor counter-clockwise slightly to decrease sensitivity. Cycle gate to ensure it works in both directions.
Dual Operators: Secondary operator must be adjusted using the SEC - Secondary reverse sensor.
Test the operators reversing sensitivity: Place an immobile object along the gate path. The gate must reverse direction after striking it. If not, increase reverse sensitivity (steps 2 and 3) and repeat test.

2.6 Shutdown Conditions
Under various entrapment conditions, the operator assumes either a SOFT or HARD (alarm) shutdown. Reset action depends on the shutdown type.
Soft Shutdown
Occurs when inherent or external entrapment protection devices are activated. Operator will not respond to input present during obstruction. If gate stops at open position, operator will not respond to auto-close timer; manual input is required to close.
- Example 1: Time clock opens gate, obstruction occurs before full open. Gate reverses to closed. Time clock input remains, but gate won't re-open. (Other devices like telephone entry, card readers, MicroPLUS transmitters may also be disabled).
- Example 2: Gate closing, entrapment device activated. Gate stops or reverses to open position. Auto-close timer will not close gate.
- Example 3: Vehicle runs over loop during opening cycle, hits opening gate. Inherent entrapment protection activates. Gate reverses to closed. Soft shutdown does NOT occur; loop provides immediate reset. Gate cycles open once area is clear and new open command is given.
Resetting a Soft Shutdown
Some soft shutdowns reset automatically when the entrapment condition clears (e.g., photo sensor obstruction removed). Operator returns to normal operation.
When in soft shutdown, activation of any "intended input" (command device, safety input, loop input) will reset the gate. If gate is open, auto-close timer will then close it.
2.6 Shutdown Conditions Continued
Hard Shutdown (Alarm Activated)
Occurs when:
- The inherent entrapment protection system (Type A) activates TWO consecutive times before cycle completion.
- The reversing edge (Type B2) activates and reverses, but before reverse cycle completion, the inherent entrapment protection system (Type A) activates.
Example of a Hard Shutdown: Gate closing, obstruction sensed, gate reverses. As gate opens, second obstruction sensed before full open. Operator stops, audio alarm sounds, all standard inputs shut down.
To silence alarm: Press reset button, or after 5 minutes, alarm stops but "chirps" every 5 seconds. Reset button must be pressed to stop "chirping" and reset operator.
Resetting a Hard Shutdown
Operator is in hard shutdown when audio alarm sounds or "chirps" every 5 seconds.
- Before resetting, determine cause. Inspect gate for obstructions.
Audio alarm sounds for five minutes, or until reset button is pushed. After 5 minutes, alarm "chirps" every 5 sec. Hard shutdown remains until reset button is pushed.
Note: DoorKing operators have built-in alarm reset push buttons on the circuit board and control box for quick access. Activating either button resets the operator to normal operation, but does not activate it.
[Diagram shows Standard Control Box with Reset Button and Alarm Reset Button locations.]
Once reset, an open or close command is needed to start the operator. Most commands cycle to the open position (key switch, open command, auto-exit loop). A close command runs the gate to the closed position.
SECTION 3 - MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspection and service by a qualified technician should be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. High cycle usage may require more frequent checks.
3.1 Maintenance
When servicing, always check external reversing devices (loops, photo sensors, etc.) for proper operation. If they cannot be made operable, do not place operator in service until malfunction is identified and corrected.
Always check the inherent reversing system. If it cannot be made operable, remove operator from service until cause is identified and corrected. Operating with a malfunctioning inherent reversing system creates a hazard resulting in severe injury or death.
When servicing, ensure AC power switch is OFF AND battery plug is disconnected.
Operator Component | Maintenance | Monthly Interval |
---|---|---|
Warning Signs | Check that warning signs are on BOTH sides of the gate area. | ✔ |
Alarm | Activate primary (inherent) reverse system by blocking gate with solid object. Gate should reverse. Block again before limit reached; entrapment alarm should activate. Press reset to silence. | ✔ |
Batteries | Check for leakage or loose connections. Replace every two years (P/N 1801-009, Two required). | ✔ |
Fire Dept. | Check emergency vehicle access device for proper operation. | ✔ |
Gate | Inspect for damage. Check gate hinges for wear and grease if necessary. | ✔ |
Primary Reverse System | Check that gate reverses on contact with object in both opening and closing cycles. Adjust reversing sensor if necessary. | ✔ |
Loop(s) | Check vehicular reverse and shadow loops for proper operation. | ✔ |
Manual Release | Check manual release for proper operation. | ✔ |
External Entrapment Device | Check monitored external reverse device(s) stop or reverse gate when activated. | ✔ |
Complete System | Complete check of gate and gate operating system. | ✔ |
3.2 Diagnostics Check
Have the following diagnostic tools available: VOM meter (voltage/continuity), Meg-ohm meter (up to 500 megohms for ground loop integrity).
A malfunction can be isolated to: Gate Operator, Loop System, or Keying Devices.
Disconnect all external inputs to the circuit board.
- Check input indicator LEDs. They should only come ON when a keying device is activated. If any input LEDs are ON continuously, the operator will hold open. Disconnect keying devices one at a time until LED goes OFF.
- If operator stops or holds open, check external entrapment protection devices for shorts or malfunction.
- Loop or loop detector malfunction can cause operator to hold open or not detect vehicles. Pull loop detector circuit boards from operator board. If problem persists, it's not the loop system. Refer to loop detector instructions and DoorKing Loop and Loop Detector Information Manual.
3.2 Diagnostics Check Continued
- Check for shorted or open control wires from keying devices. If a keying device fails to open the gate, momentarily jumper terminals 1 and 2 on the control board. If operator starts, the problem is with the keying device, not the operator.
- Check supply voltage and batteries. Voltage drop on supply line (due to undersized wires) can cause malfunction. Batteries should be fully charged. Replace every two years on average.
3.3 Troubleshooting

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PROPERTY OWNER
New Installation Checklist for Installer and Property Owner
Instructions: Check "√" to indicate item addressed by installer AND property owner. Enter N/A if not applicable. This checklist is a summary of important aspects, not an exhaustive list of all potential hazards.
Each item listed and checked has been examined by the Installer and is CLEARLY understood by the Property Owner.
Installer | Property Owner | Description |
---|---|---|
The operator is installed on a gate used for vehicles only. Verify separate pedestrian access is provided or available, such that pedestrians cannot come in contact with the moving vehicular access gate during its entire length of travel. | ||
Gate/Hardware: Insure means to prevent gate from falling over (roller/hinge failure). Insure physical limit stops and that gravity will not initiate motion. Insure all rollers are guarded/covered to eliminate finger insertion possibility. | ||
Slide Gate: Insure maximum opening in gate and adjacent fence (when open) prevents a 2 ¼" sphere from passing up to 72" above ground or gate top. If not met, add wire mesh or other means before operation. | ||
Insure gaps between slide gate and stationary posts/pilasters are less than 2 ¼" and these areas are protected with an entrapment protection device. | ||
The gate operator system complies with UL 325 entrapment protection requirements. Identify potential entrapment zones and ensure they are protected. Potential pinch areas guarded or have contact/non-contact sensing devices. Verify external entrapment protection is independent from inherent protection. Edge sensors or photocells are typical. See installation/owner's manual for details. | ||
The installer has properly adjusted the inherent entrapment protection feature and tested the gate to ensure it stops and reverses a short distance upon striking an immovable object. | ||
Check placement of user operational controls are six (6) or more feet away from the gate. If closer, DO NOT place automated vehicular gate into service. | ||
Warning signs are to be permanently installed, visible from each side of the gate, for both secure and unsecure sides. | ||
The installer has instructed the property owner in the proper use of the gate operator, reviewed operational functions, obstruction-sensing devices, alarm, and reset as outlined in the manual. | ||
The installer has instructed the property owner in the proper use of the operator's manual release feature. | ||
The installer has reviewed all safety instructions with the property owner, including never letting children operate or play with controls, keeping remote control away from children, and always keeping people and objects away from the gate. | ||
The installer has explained to the property owner that a regular maintenance schedule for the gate and operator is recommended, including regular testing of entrapment protection. | ||
The installer has left the installation/owners manual with the property owner for future reference. |
