4.1 Connection Terminals
The board features clearly labeled terminals for various connections. Refer to the diagram below for common connection points.
Figure 4.1: Close-up of the connection terminals, including MOTOR1, MOTOR2, ELOCK, BLK, power inputs, and accessory ports.
- MOTOR1 / MOTOR2: Connect the gate operator motors here.
- ELOCK: Connection for an electric lock.
- BLK: Black wire connection (typically common or ground).
- +24V / +12V / COM: Power supply connections for the board and accessories.
- EM1 / EM2: External input terminals.
- PH / STP / PED / OSC: Terminals for connecting external safety and control devices such as photocell sensors, stop buttons, pedestrian mode switches, and oscillation sensors.
- GND / ANT: Ground and antenna connections for remote control functionality.
- AC FUSE / DC FUSE: Replaceable fuses for AC and DC power protection.
4.2 External Equipment Connection
The control board supports various external devices to enhance gate functionality:
- Udgangskontakt: Connect to appropriate input terminals (e.g., EM1, EM2, or specific trigger inputs) to allow for manual gate opening from inside the property.
- Fotocelle sensor: Connect to the PH terminal to provide safety by detecting obstructions in the gate's path.
- Elektrisk lås: Connect to the ELOCK terminals for secure gate locking.
5. Betjeningsvejledning
The PK400DC board allows for customization of gate operation through onboard buttons and potentiometers.

5.1 Indstillinger for tilstand
- Single/Dual Swing Mode: Use the 'PROG' and '+/-' buttons to navigate through settings and select between single gate or dual gate operation. Consult the specific programming sequence in the included manual for detailed steps.
5.2 Tidsindstillinger
- Tidspunkt for automatisk lukning: Configure the duration after which the gate automatically closes. This setting is adjustable via the control interface.
- Open/Close Delay Time: Set delays for gate opening and closing sequences, particularly useful for dual gate systems to ensure proper synchronization.
5.3 Parring af fjernbetjening
The control board supports pairing with up to 25 remote controls. Follow these general steps:
- Press the 'PROG' button until the display indicates remote pairing mode.
- Press a button on the remote control you wish to pair.
- The display will confirm successful pairing. Repeat for additional remotes.
5.4 Adjustment Potentiometers
- KRAFT: Adjusts the motor's power output. Set to the minimum required to operate the gate smoothly.
- SÆT NEDEN: Controls the deceleration speed of the gate before reaching its fully open or closed position.
- HASTIGHED: Adjusts the overall travel speed of the gate.
6. Vedligeholdelse
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your control board and gate operator system.
- Visuel inspektion: Periodically inspect the control board for any signs of damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
- Renhed: Keep the control board enclosure clean and free from dust, debris, and moisture.
- Sikringskontrol: If the gate operator loses power or functions intermittently, check the AC and DC fuses on the board. Replace blown fuses with ones of the identical rating.
- Ledningsintegritet: Ensure all wiring connections to the board are tight and free from fraying or damage.
7. Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues with your GATEXPERT PK400DC control board, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Gate does not respond to remote or switch. | No power to the board; remote not paired; faulty switch; wiring issue. | Check power supply and fuses. Re-pair remote controls. Inspect switch and wiring connections. |
| Gate opens but does not close automatically. | Auto-close time not set; photocell sensor obstructed or faulty. | Adjust auto-close time setting. Clear any obstructions from photocell path; check photocell wiring and function. |
| Gate operates erratically or stops mid-cycle. | Motor overload; obstruction; incorrect force setting; power fluctuation. | Check for physical obstructions. Adjust 'FORCE' potentiometer. Ensure stable power supply. |
| Fuses blow repeatedly. | Short circuit in wiring or motor; faulty component on board. | Immediately disconnect power. Inspect all wiring for shorts. Check motors for damage. If problem persists, contact support. |
