The IQ-500 is a residential/commercial swing gate operator
1) Install the gate operator only when:
•The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate (see the
ASTM F2200 standard) and the usage UL Class of the gate,
•It is recommended that all openings of a swing gate are guarded or
screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.22
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,
•Guarding is supplied for exposed hinges
•The bottom of the gate has been constructed so that a “raking”
action has been eliminated
•All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded
2) The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles.
Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening.
3) The 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.
4
4) The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to
the installation of the gate operator. Do not increase the operator amperage
levels beyond the required operable amounts to compensate for a damaged
gate.
5) For gate operators utilizing Type D protection:
•The gate operator controls must be placed so that the user has full
view of the gate area when the gate is moving,
•The placard be placed adjacent to the controls,
•An automatic closing device (such as a timer, loop sensor, or
similar device) shall not be employed
•No other activation device shall be connected.
6) Controls must be far enough from the gate so that the user is prevented from
coming in contact with the gate while operating the controls. Controls intended to
be used to reset an operator after 2 sequential activations of the entrapment
protection device or devices must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate.
Outdoor or easily accessible controls shall have a security feature to prevent
unauthorized use.
7) All warning signs and placards must be installed where visible in the area of
the gate. A minimum of two placards shall be installed. A placard is to be
installed in the area of each side of the gate and be visible to persons located on
the side of the gate on which the placard is installed.
8) For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor such as a photo beam:
•See instructions on the placement of non-contact sensors for each
type of application,
•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
•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.
9) For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge sensor:
•One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of
entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge,
5
trailing edge, and post mounted both inside and outside of a
vehicular horizontal Swing gate.
•One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of
a vehicular vertical lift gate.
•One or more contact sensors shall be located at the pinch point of a
vehicular vertical pivot gate.
•A hardwired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged
so that the communication between the sensor and the gate
operator is not subjected to mechanical damage.
•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.
Before installation:
•Read and follow all instructions
•Verify that the IQ Gate Systems operator that is being installed is the
correct operator for the gate.
•Make sure that the gate has been properly installed and swings freely and
level throughout its travel. Repair or replace any damaged or unsafe
hardware. A gate that swings free of friction and binding will greatly
increase the life of the gate operator.
•Review the operation of the system and the customers needs to make the
installation as easy and efficient as possible.
•This gate operator is intended for vehicular gates only. A separate
entrance must be provided for pedestrian use.
•Please conform with the UL and ASTM standards on building safe and
approved gates

During installation:
•Install the gate operator on the secured side of the property and away
from public access.
•Be mindful of moving parts and pinch points. Avoid close proximities.
•Installation of contact and non-contact sensors such as edges and
photoelectric sensors is suggested to enhance the prevention of
entrapment.
•Determine the best level of open and close force for the installation. An
improper level will defeat the inherent current sensing purpose and make
the installation unsafe. By utilizing the “Motor Diagnostic” feature;
proper and accurate levels can be obtained when adjusting the open and
close force settings. Improper testing and setting of the force
adjustment can increase the risk of serious injury or death.
•Mount all access controls away from the gate a recommended minimum
distance of 10 feet. The gate must be in full view of controls but out of
reach.
After Installation:
•Review ALL safety instructions with the end user. Explain the basic
operation and features including safety precautions of the entire gate
operator system. Don’t forget to include how to disconnect power to the
operator and how to operate the gate manually.
•Attach all warning signs and placards as well as your own business
contact information to the gates. It is recommended that you take a picture
of the gates with the warning signs in place and record the date of the
photo. Keep for your records.

•SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Leave a copy of the manual and your
contact information with the end user.
Preparing to install the IQ-500
Consider the following when installing an IQ-500:
•Survey the desired location for the gate. Make sure that the opening is far
enough away from a main road or heavy traffic. Be sure to allow enough
distance away from the road so that a vehicle can approach the gate
without obstructing traffic. Twenty-five feet from the road should be
sufficient, but compliance with local codes should be observed.
•Keep power requirements in mind. The IQ-500 is capable of operating
with a supply of power from a solar panel that consists of at least 20 watts.
AC power is recommended to consist of 110 to 220 volts. AC power is the
preferred method of supply.
•Depending on soil conditions, set the concrete pad at least 2 feet in the
ground with an abundance of concrete. Check and conform to local codes.
•Install the gate with the incline of the road in mind. For proper operation,
the gate must swing back and forth at a level plane.
For Master / Slave Applications:
•The recommended installation of a master/slave or bi-parting swing gate is
to pull motor and limit switch wires across the road to the “master”
operator. This kind of setup allows for easy programming and servicing of
the gate operators. If it is desired to have a Motor Board in each operator,
the required number and gauge of wires will remain the same.
The following is the preferred master/slave wiring requirements:
8
•Be sure to provide a ¾” conduit between the two gates if they will be set
up as bi-parting. A minimum of at least 8 comm. wires and 2 power wires
are required for the IQ-500 to function with the greatest amount of
accuracy. A CAT5e and a 18-16 gauge 2 conductor cable will be
sufficient. The 16 gauge wires are to be provided for the motor power.
They will connect the RED and BLACK wires from the motor to the
MOTOR A and B terminals on the Motor Board.
•Utilize the Cat5e cable to terminate the open and close limit switches and
the Encoder wires from the slave connection terminal block. Connect
these wires in the Master operator on the M-2 motor board. The Encoder
and the limit switches all utilize a common ground.
•When programming the IQ Control Board for a Master / Slave application,
be sure to change the number of operators in the “Motor Drive Menu” to 2
operators. Also, make note of what operator is Motor 1 and what operator
is Motor 2 when selecting the on board slide switch on the motor board
labeled “M1 – M2”.
Installing the IQ-500
Be sure to follow these instructions:
•Bolt the IQ-500 onto a concrete pad
9
•Tighten all necessary bolts and prepare the gate and operator for motion
•Properly secure and attach the desired form of power in the control box
where power termination is labeled.
•Attach the battery wires to the batteries after the AC power has been
terminated and energized.
