MOUNTING
A. Determine type of gate:
1. Single-swing gate (g. 2) — Gate swings on one end, and comes to rest on a xed gate post when closed. In this case, a typical
installation has the electromagnet xed to the gate post, and the armature connected to the free end of the gate with a Z-bracket.
2. Double-swing gate (g. 3) — Two gates swing in the same direction when activated. The electromagnet is xed to the free end
of one gate, and the armature is xed to the free end of the other via a Z-bracket. IMPORTANT:
a. A cover piece should be added to the Z-bracket to cover the electromagnet. This will help prevent unauthorized users from
prying the armature and the electromagnet apart.
b. Because of the cover piece, it is important to coordinate the swing of the gates to prevent the electromagnet from catching on
the cover piece. In this case, the gate with the armature should open before the gate with the electromagnet.
3. Sliding gate (g. 4) — The gate slides instead of swings away from a xed gate post. In this case, use L-brackets to mount the
electromagnet and the armature perpendicular to each other.
B. Mount the electromagnet (g. 5) — In most cases, the position of the electromagnet will determine the location of the armature
plate. Make sure there is space to run the cable.
Note: For hollow door headers or gate posts using blind nuts (see gure 6):
1. Tape the template to the appropriate location.
2. Drill four (E-942FC-1300) or two (E-942FC-600) 9.5mm (
3
/
8
”) holes, one for each short hex screw. IMPORTANT: The holes must
be 9.5mm (
3
/
8
”). No smaller, no larger.
3. Insert a blind nut in one of the 9.5mm (
3
/
8
”) holes.
4. Put the washer on the M6x30 screw. Then put the hex tool on the screw. Then turn the screw by hand into the blind nut.
5. Use a wrench or vice-grip to tightly hold the hex tool. Then use the included Allen wrench to slowly tighten the screw until it does
not turn any further. This compresses the blind nut so that it remains permanently xed in the hole.
6. Remove the screw.
7. Repeat steps 3) through 6) for the other blind nuts.
8. Push hex screws into each of the screw holes in the electromagnet. Use the Allen wrench to tighten the screws into the blind nuts.

REGULAR MAINTENANCE
• Clean the contact surfaces of the electromagnet or armature plate with a soft cloth and non-abrasive, non-corrosive
cleaner.
• Apply a light coat of a silicon lubricant to both contact surfaces and wipe away the excess to prevent rust.
• Check that the armature plate is securely attached to the door, yet can pivot slightly around the armature screw.
• Check that the electromagnet is securely attached to the gate or post.

Problem Possible cause • Solutions
Gate does not lock No power • Check to make sure the wires are secure
• Check that the power supply is connected and
operating
Gate locks, but can
be easily forced open
Poor contact between
electromagnet and
armature plate
Incorrect volate setting
• Make sure the electromagnet and armature plate
are properly aligned
• Make sure the contact surfaces of the electromagnet
and armature plate are clean and free from rust
Delay in gate
releasing
A secondary diode was
installed across the
elctromagnet
• THe electromagnet is tted with a vetal oxide
varistor to prevent interference, so do not install a
secondary diode
