ATA – GDO5 AS Instruction Manual

FEATURES

Your ATA Automatic Garage Door Opener has many features which you will appreciate. The components and materials used in this Automatic Opener are of the latest technology and highest quality. Listed below are some of the many features.

OPERATION
To operate the door simply press the hand held transmitter or optional wall switch for two seconds and the door will automatically open or close. The door can be stopped during an opening or closing cycle by pressing again. The next actuation will move the door in the opposite direction.

HOPPING CODE
Every time a transmission is made from the Remote Transmitter a new security code is generated. The number of possible code combinations is over 4.29 billion. This greatly enhances security of the system. Code “Grabbing” is made a thing of the past.

ISS (INTELLIGENT SAFETY OBSTRUCTION SYSTEM)
While the door is performing a close cycle, should it hit an obstacle or be restricted in some manner, it will automatically reverse. The amount of force the door should encounter before reversing, is automatically adjusted by the doors control system, during the initial installation of the automatic door opener. The door also if restricted whilst opening will stop. The Safety Obstruction Force should be checked at least once a month. See installation manual for instructions.

SECURITY CODE STORE
The Opener uses state of the art technology in storing your selected Transmitter Security Code. Up to 27 different codes can be stored in the Openers memory. To store a code simply press and hold the Door Code button on the Opener and press the Transmitter button twice. Each or all codes can be deleted and changed at any time. The codes can also be stored with the Transmitter from a remote location. 

OVER LOAD INDICATOR
When the maximum opening and closing capacity of the Opener is exceeded the Courtesy Light will flash 10 times and an audible beeper will sound to indicate that an Overload has occurred.

SERVICE INDICATOR
The Opener has a Service indicator. When the Overload LED light flashes and the beeper sounds at the start of a door cycle, it means that the opener and or garage door needs a service.

AUTO COURTESY LIGHT
The Courtesy Light on the Opener comes on automatically whenever the door is activated to do an open or close cycle. The Light can also be switched on and off without operating the door. This is done by pressing the button on any Hand Held Transmitter which has been stored with the light code, or by pressing the light button on the Wall Switch (optional). The light will stay on for approximately three minutes then switch off. This time is also adjustable.

CAS (COLOUR ASSISTED SETTINGS)
To make the installation of the Automatic Opener more user friendly Automatic Technology Australia developed the CAS (Colour Assisted Settings) system. This unique system makes installation easy and quick, as all the Open and Close adjustments and settings are colour coordinated. Red for Close and Green for Open.

OPEN AND CLOSE DRIVE BUTTONS
Another feature developed by Automatic Technology Australia in aiding in the installation of the opener is the Open and Close Drive Buttons. These buttons are used to help set the open and close limit positions. A quicker setting time and a more precise limit position can be achieved using this feature.

INITIALISATION
The Reset button on the Door Opener is used to initialise or re-initialise the obstruction settings and door travel counts. See Installation Instructions for further information.

AUTO CLOSE MODE
The Opener can be programmed to automatically close after an open cycle. The Auto Close time is adjustable. It is compulsory to install a Photo Electric Beam if this mode is selected, otherwise the door will not operate.

SAFETY AUTO RUN TIME
If the Opener does not complete its cycle within thirty seconds the Opener will stop if opening, and reverse back open if closing automatically.

PHOTO ELECTRIC BEAM (OPTIONAL)
The Opener has an input for a Photo Electric Beam to be connected for extra safety protection. And/or use of the Auto Close Mode.

MANUAL OPERATION
The Opener is equipped with a unique Manual Disengaging Device. If the power to the Opener is disrupted for any reason the door can be put into Manual Mode by pulling down on the string handle, then releasing. This will allow you to manually open or close the door. When power is restored, by pulling down on the string handle and releasing, the opener is put back into Automatic Mode.
