General Description
The R3 & R5 rotary swing gate systems are designed to open and close swing gates. The CP75 controller
is capable of handling both single and double swing gates and offers many features to suit almost any
application.
Detailed specifications for the R3 & R5 motors are shown in the figure below and the table alongside.
The unit employs a battery driven DC motor for low duty domestic applications, which provides automatic
backup protection in the event of a power failure. The unit can also be fitted with a high duty power supply
in addition to the battery to allow for more frequent operation of the gate.
The R3 & R5 operators are fitted with an internal electronic limit switch system, which provides reliable
and accurate positioning of the gate. This system allows the operator to smoothly slow the gate down at
the fully open or closed positions.
A fail-safe and highly reliable collision sensing system is built into the controller, which will cause the
motor to stop while the gate is opening, and stop and reverse when closing if a gate is obstructed in any
way. (The collision sensitivity will be reduced during the endpoints of sinusoidal motion).
Gate movement is transmitted to the gate by means of articulated arms. The length of both the drive arm
and the connecting arm is easily adjusted to give maximum installation flexibility.

Site Considerations
Install the gate operator only if:
1. It will not pose a hazard to the public.
2. There is sufficient clearance to a roadway and/or public thoroughfares.
3. The installation will meet all municipal and/or local authority requirements once completed.
4. The gate mass, length and application is within the operator specifications (see page 9).
5. The gate is in good working order, meaning:
!That it moves freely.
!Does not move on its own if left in any position.

6. It can be installed to have sufficient clearance between moving parts when opening and closing to
reduce the risk of personal injury and entrapment.
7. Pushbuttons or key switches, when required, can be positioned so that the gate is in line of sight of the
operator.

General considerations for the installation:


1. Always recommend the fitment of additional safety equipment such as safety edges and safety
beams, for additional protection against entrapment or other mechanical risks.
2. Check that there is enough ground clearance below the motor to enable assembly of the drive arm
clamps (see page 21).
3. Check that no pipes or electrical cables are in the way of the intended installation.
4. Check that enough space is available for the gate operator with the gate in the required open position.
5. Check for loose sandy soil if installing foundations, as the soil condition may require a larger
foundation.
6. Check the strength of the mounting pillar in the case of a wall mount installation.
7. If the swing gate leaf is longer than 2.5m for a wall mount installation, or 3.5m for pedestal-mount
installations, ensure that a lock can be fitted.
8. Never fit the operator on the outside of the gate, where the public has access to it. (Follow the
instructions for an outward opening swing gate, if required.)

2. Determine a suitable position for the pedestal or wall mount bracket using the swing angle and
dimensions A and B as found in the tables in Fig 7 to 11. (Values given in BOLD indicate the
recommended dimensions). Before finalising the position of the pedestal or wall bracket, see
points 5 & 6 below.
If it is not possible to find a suitable position within the given A and B dimensions, then contact your
local Centurion Systems sales office.
3. Determine the vertical height of the pedestal or wall bracket to be 37mm above the gate bracket as in
Fig. 12.
4. If installing a pedestal, prepare a square hole for the pedestal foundation according to Fig. 12 at the
predetermined position.

Mount Gate Bracket


5. Locate a suitable place for mounting the gate bracket according to dimension "C" as shown in Fig. 12
By positioning the gate bracket further from the hinge (increasing the "C" value), it would:
l
increase the time it takes to open the gate (make it slower),
l
improve the gates locking and security properties.
(The A dimension does not affect the opening time or other properties of the gate.)

6. Determine the height of the bracket above ground by taking into account drive arm clearance and
ground clearance for the padlock. (See Fig. 12). Once correctly located, weld or screw the gate
bracket to the gate using the two M4 screws provided.

Route Cables & Secure Motor Mounting


7. Route cables as determined in the cabling plan (Fig. 5), making sure that all cables protrude at least
400mm above the pedestal mounting plate or wall mount bracket as shown in Fig. 13.

400mm 400mm

Pedestal

Cables must protrude at least 400mm


beyond the top of the pedestal adaptor plate
or wall bracket.

Page 22
8. Securely concrete the pedestal into position making sure that it is vertical, and at the correct
height relative to the gate bracket, as shown in Fig. 12. Allow concrete sufficient time to cure.
In the case of a wall mount installation, securely fix the wall mount bracket in the determined position
to the wall or pillar using four M12 Rawl bolts.

Fasten Gearbox in Position


9. Fasten the motor onto the pedestal adaptor plate or wall bracket, as shown in Fig. 14, using the M8
bolts and spring washers as supplied.

Determine Drive Arm Length


10. Depending on the particular installation type, determine the drive arm length as follows:
For Standard Pedestal & Outward Opening Gates:
Measure dimensions L (long) and S (short) as in Fig. 15 and calculate the drive arm length D as
shown in Fig. 15. DO NOT CUT THE DRIVE ARM TO THIS LENGTH. Cut the drive arm at least 50mm
longer than D. The cut length is therefore = D +50mm. (See Fig. 16)
For Pedestal Mounted Installations With Limited Space:
From the tables on Fig. 8, determine the drive arm length D, and select the boldface value if the motor
is mounted in the recommended. DO NOT CUT THE DRIVE ARM TO THIS LENGTH. Cut the drive
arm at least 50mm longer than D. The cut length is therefore = D + 50mm (see Fig. 16)
Assemble the drive arm and connecting arm as in steps 11 to 18 and check the gate operation
• If the drive arm interferes with the gate or,
• If the ball joint on the drive arm is more than 30mm from the obstructing wall, then,
Shorten the drive arm by 25mm and repeat the process until the gate operates smoothly.

therefore D (drive arm length) = 300.5mm
S
(Do NOT cut the drive arm to this length allow an
extra 50mm i.e. cut drive arm D = 350mm. See Fig. 16)

The easiest way of measuring L and S is to hold the zero mark of the
tape measure on the middle of the output shaft, and then to read off
L and S at the gate bracket.

position.
17. Carefully unhook the connecting arm from the
gate bracket making sure it's length is not
altered. Hand tighten the connecting arm ski- Figure 19 Fit Connecting Arm to Gate Bracket

18. Manually operate the gate leaf and check that it opens sufficiently.
If the gate opens too little, lengthen the drive arm by 10mm and readjust t he connecting arm by
restarting from step 14.

19. Once a satisfactory gate opening has been achieved, the connecting arm must be fully tightened:
Disconnect the connecting arm from the gate bracket. Remove the bushes from the front end of
the connecting arm. Using a large screwdriver or similar lever, tighten the ski-pole lock using half-
turns until it is as tight as possible and aligned with the gate bracket. Replace the bushes and
reconnect the connecting arm to the gate as shown in Fig. 19.
20. Apply the two warning decals supplied to the inward and outward facing sides of the gate frame
about 1.2m above ground at the non-hinged end of the gate.

Setting Additional Features (Optional)


The default factory settings on the CP75 Controller have been selected to suit most applications. In many
cases there would be no need to change the default settings. A list of features can be found on page 47,
with a detailed description of each feature on page 32.

Determine What Features are Required


25. Determine from Table 2 on Page 47 what Features are required together with the STATUS or COUNT
value.
Example: “To turn the AUTO-CLOSE Feature ON”: According to Table 2 the auto-close feature is
Feature number 2, and to turn it ON is a status of 1.

Get Into Programming Mode (Exactly the same as for limits setup)
26. Remove ALL power from the controller, i.e. charger plug and battery.
27. Fit the SET link to the SET pins as shown in figure 28.
28. Reapply power by reconnecting the charger plug, and then the battery to the controller.
29. Immediately after reconnecting the power, the STATUS light must flash 5 times, and then SET and L2
will come on. You are now in programming mode.

Page 30
(See Set-up Troubleshooting Guide step 14 or 29)

Selecting the Feature to Change


(This is the first of two steps in setting a Feature. This only SELECTS the feature to change).
30. To select the Feature to change, Press and hold the TEST button while monitoring L1.
31. L1 will flash once then go off, twice in short succession then go off, 3 times then go off, etc.
Release the TEST button when the number of flashes is the same as the Feature number to select.

Example 1:
To set the MODE OF OPERATION to CONDOMINIUM (That is Feature number 4, to a status of 2
according to table 2 on page 47) Press and hold the TEST button while monitoring L1:
The L1 light will flash once and pause,
then flash twice and pause….
then flash 3 times and pause….
then flash 4 times and pause….
At this moment release the TEST button to select Feature 4. L2 will turn off, and L1 will keep on
flashing 4 times and pausing to indicate that Feature 4 is selected

Changing the STATUS or COUNT value of a Feature.


33. To set the STATUS value of the Auto Close, Mode of operation, Collision Sensitivity, Positive Close
mode, Pre-flashing, or the Leaf delay Features:
Press and hold the TEST button while monitoring the STATUS light. The STATUS light will flash the
same as for selecting a Feature. (See Step 31) Release the TEST button when the number of flashes
is the same as the STATUS value required.
Example 1 (continued):
To set the MODE OF OPERATION to CONDOMINIUM:
After selecting the Feature, again press and hold the TEST button while monitoring the
STATUS light:
The L1 light will flash once and pause,
then flash twice and pause…..
At this moment release the TEST button to give a STATUS value of 2. The mode of operation
has been changed to condominium.
NOTE: Only after setting the STATUS, would the mode of operation be changed to
reversing!

Page 31
L2 will come back on, indicating that the STATUS has been updated.
34. To set the COUNT value of the Auto-close timer, Pedestrian Auto-close time, Courtesy light timer,
Auto-close override timer, Pre-flashing time, Collision counter, or the Leaf delay time Features:
Press and hold the TEST button while monitoring the STATUS light. After a slight pause, the
STATUS light will start flashing at an even rate. Count all the flashes, and release the TEST button
when the number of flashes is the same as the COUNT value required.
Example 2:
Set the AUTO-CLOSE TIME to 10 seconds (That is Feature number 3, to a COUNT value of
10):
First select the Feature number 3 as in steps 30 to 32. Then press and hold the TEST button
while monitoring the STATUS light:
After a slight pause, the STATUS light will start flashing regularly:
Flash (1), Flash (2), Flash (3), Flash (4), Flash (5), Flash (6), ….........Flash (9),
Flash (10).
At this moment release the TEST button to give a COUNT value of 10. This sets the auto-
close timer to 10 seconds.
L2 will come back on, indicating that the COUNT has been updated.

Controller Features
The terminology "FEATURE 2-2" refers to Feature number 2 with a status of 2. “FEATURE 3- COUNT”
refers to Feature number 3, with a user specified COUNT value.

Auto-close
This can be programmed ON (FEATURE 2-1) or OFF (FEATURE 2-2). The factory default is OFF. Auto-
close has the function of automatically closing a gate after a preset auto-close time. Auto-close must not
be turned OFF in condominium or PIRAC mode.
A gate that is stopped while opening will always auto-close. A gate that is stopped while closing will
remain where it is stopped indefinitely.
This time is set in FEATURE 3-COUNT. It can be set from 1 to 255 seconds. It is possible for the user to
temporarily turn off auto-close when the mode of operation is either STANDARD and REVERSING. This is
done by applying an impulse to the TRG input at the time of opening the gate, for a period of time longer
than the AUTO-CLOSE OVERRIDE TIME as set in FEATURE 8-COUNT. To provide feedback that the
override signal has operated, the gate will stop opening after the override time. The instant the impulse is
removed the gate will complete its opening cycle. The auto-close is now off and the gate will remain open
indefinitely. The next impulse received on TRG will initiate the closing cycle and the auto-close is
automatically re-instated.

Mode of Operation
It is possible to select 4 different modes of operation: STANDARD, CONDOMINIUM, PIRAC and
REVERSING (FEATURE 4-1 to 4-4). Only one mode can be activated at any one time. All the modes are
triggered by the contact present between the TRG input terminal and the COM terminal.
STANDARD MODE (FEATURE 4-1) (This is the factory default mode) - A trigger impulse will
cause the gate to start moving (either open or closed depending on its position). A second

Page 32
impulse while the gate is still moving will stop the gate. A third impulse will cause the gate to reverse
its direction of travel, i.e. the action is START - STOP - REVERSE.
CONDIMINIUM MODE (FEATURE 4- 2) - Any trigger will cause a gate, which is closed or closing to
open or re-open. If not already active, the auto-close will automatically be turned on when
condominium mode is selected. It is only the auto-close signal, which can close a gate in
condominium mode. If a trigger impulse is given while the gate is open the auto-close time is reset
to its preset value.
PIRAC MODE (FEATURE 4-3) - An acronym for Passive Infra Red Auto Close, this mode operates
similarly to condominium mode but instead of waiting for the auto-close timer to close the gate, it
will close as soon as an object that has passed through the gate clears the infrared beam. If the
beam is not broken the gate will get to its fully open position and close after the preset auto-close
time. This feature will only operate if infrared safety beams or if an inductive loop is fitted (IRB
terminal).
REVERSING MODE (FEATURE 4-4)- This mode is similar to standard mode but instead of
stopping a gate when it is in motion, a trigger will cause the gate to reverse its direction of travel. It is
thus impossible to leave a gate stationary in a partly open position. The only two normally stable
states are fully open or fully closed. If the auto-close is ON then the gate will always tend towards
being closed.

Pedestrian Auto-Close Time (FEATURE 5 - COUNT)


A separate auto-closer timer exists for the pedestrian opening. The time can be set from 1 to 255 seconds
but cannot be turned off completely. The default time is 5 seconds.

Collision Sensitivity (FEATURE 7-1 to 7-3) (The factory default is 7-1)


If the gate is obstructed the internal collision circuitry will activate. When the gate is opening, and it is
obstructed the gate will stop. Master and slave gates operate independently of each other while opening
i.e. a collision to the master gate will not stop the slave gate from opening fully. During closing however, an
obstruction to either master or slave gate will cause both gates to immediately stop and reverse direction.
There is a counter (FEATURE 12-COUNT) that monitors the number of collisions. If the collision count is
reached before both gates reach the fully closed position all trigger signals are inhibited for a 1 minute
period. The STATUS LED flashing 4 times indicates this condition. After the 1 minute period. triggers will
again become active, (with the exception of auto-close). The fault indication will continue to flash
indefinitely after the 1 minute period but will clear after the 1 minute period is a valid trigger is given. The
collision counter resets to zero after the 1 minute delay, or the processor is reset. (e.g. By removing all
power from the controller.)

Courtesy (Pillar) Light:


The pillar circuit has multiple functions:
• It operates as a courtesy light and switches on for a timed period. (The factory default is 2
minutes) (set by FEATURE 6-COUNT) every time the gate triggers.
• It can be turned on for the preset timed period, by the application of a short impulse between the
SET terminal and COM.
• It can be turned ON permanently by application of an impulse longer than 3 seconds on SET and
COM terminals. A short impulse thereafter will switch the lights off. The gate will not trigger open
when using the SET trigger. The fact that the pillar light is ON permanently is indicated by the
STATUS LED flashing once every 2 seconds.

Page 33
• When the PED input is triggered the pillar light flashes for an adjustable (1 to 255 seconds) pre-
flash time (FEATURE 11 - COUNT) before the pedestrian gate opens. (Default pre-f;ash time is 2
seconds).
• The contact can be used to operate a lamp, which will warn that the gate is about to open.
Selection of pre-flashing is done in FEATURE 10. Three modes and OFF are selectable (The
factory default is OFF):
#Mode 1 - Light comes on only while gates are in motion.
#Mode 2 - Light flashes at 1Hz for the pre-flash time and then flashes in synchronism with the
STATUS LED while the gates are in motion.
#Mode 3 - Light comes on for the pre-flash time and while the gates are in motion.

Positive Close Mode:


Setting positive close mode to ON (FEATURE 9-1) (default is OFF, FEATURE 9-2) will allow the gate to
drive up hard to an end stop without causing the collision circuitry to operate. This Feature operates
only during the last 10 degrees of arm travel in the closing moe.

Leaf Delay:
(Feature 13 & 14) It is possible to select 3 different types of leaf delay. Feature 14 selects the delay time.
FEATURE 13-1 Will delay the slave motor during its opening cycle only for the leaf delay time.
FEATURE 13-2 Will delay the master motor during its closing cycle. This is to ensure that the
slave gate will reach the fully closed positions before the master leaf. For
example, in situations where the master gate has a flap which must close
against the slave gate.
FEATURE 13-3 Will cause the slave gate to delay on opening and the master gate to delay on
closing.
FEATURE 13-4 Turns all leaf delays OFF (Default setting).
FEATURE 14-COUNT Allows the leaf delay to be set from 1 to 255 seconds. The default delay time is
2 seconds.
NOTE: The solenoid lock strike time is set via the leaf delay timer.
All the known causes of problems are listed, according to the step number in the gate limits setup

Description of Terminal Functions
MASTER The master motor is connected to these terminals. If the master motor direction is incorrect swap
around the wires connected to these terminals.
SLAVE The slave motor (in dual swing gate applications) is connected to these terminals. As with
MASTER, swap the connected wires around for motor direction reversal.
COM The battery/power supply negative terminal. All trigger signals etc. have their return path to one of
the COM terminals.
LIGHT These two terminals provide a normally open potential free contact which is generally used to
switch on a pillar light (courtesy light). It can also be used for other purposes if required.
12V Provides a +12V DC supply for auxiliary equipment such as a radio receiver, photo cells etc. It is
linked directly to the battery positive via a 3A fast blow fuse (see page 47).
TRG A momentary, normally-open trigger device such as relay, pushbutton etc. connected between
TRG and COM will cause the gate to trigger open/closed. Connect multiple trigger devices in
parallel (Refer to the section MODE OF OPERATION on page 32).
IRB The signal from the infra red beam (IRB)(photo cell), safety edge, loop or other safety device.
This prevents the gate from closing when the normally-closed contact between IRB and COM is
open. For multiple safety devices wire all contacts in series.
NB: If no safety devices are fitted ensure a wire link is fitted between IRB and COM. If auto-
close is selected the time will be reset to the selected value when the device is tripped.
FRX A momentary normally-open contact from a device such as a free exit inductive loop detector (or
photo cell or pushbutton) which causes a gate which is closed or closing to open or re-open. If
the gate is open or opening the signal has no effect other than to reset the auto-close timer (if
selected). Free exit (FRX) will never initiate a closing cycle. If only the FRX input is u sed , the auto-
close must be turned on alternatively the TRG input used to close the gate.
LED An output terminal which provides a low current, (approx. 4,5V DC, 20mA) drive to an LED which
can be used to indicate the gate status remotely. If more than 3 LED's are required it is necessary
to fit a LED driver card (consult Centurion Systems for details).
PED A momentary normally-open contact from a pedestrian key switch, pushbutton, keypad, radio
receiver etc which will cause the MASTER gate only, to open to the limited pedestrian open
position. The gate opens only after the adjustable pre-flash time (default - 2 seconds). If the
contact is held closed the auto-close is suspended until the contact reopens.
LCK If the latched normally-closed contact between LCK and COM is held open, all triggers which
would normally cause a closed gate to open (e.g. TRG, PED, FRX) will be inhibited. If the gate is
open, opening or closing and the LCK contact is opened the gate will continue to respond until
such time as the gate is in the fully closed position.
NB: If the LCK function is not required a link must be fitted between LCK and COM.
SET This terminal has two functions:
1. If SET is linked to COM with no power present to the controller and power is then applied, the
controller will be put into PROGRAMME mode.
2. If SET is linked to COM when power is already applied, this action will cause the pillar light
relay to energise. A momentary contact causes the relay to energize for a period of time as
defined for the courtesy light timer. If the contact is made for a period exceeding 3 seconds
the pillar light relay will energize and remain energized indefinitely until a new momentary
contact is given.
SOL A solenoid strike lock is connected between SOL and 12V. Each time the gate triggers to open (or
close) the SOL terminal switches to COM thus energizing the solenoid. The time that the SOL
terminal remains switched to com is set using FEATURE 14. The maximum current draw is 2A.
SS1 to SS3 Limit switch contacts from the slave interface PCB.

Page 45
LED Indicator Lights
The controller is fitted with diagnostic lights (LEDs) that assist with the set-up and maintenance of the gate.
Table 1 provides a description and purpose of the indicator lights. Refer to page 46 for location.
