Installation and Use
Installation Steps
1. Site Preparation
-
Confirm the gate layout and dimensions on-site.
-
Ensure the ground is level and solid (preferably concrete).
-
Mark the exact installation points using the provided base plate template.
2. Cabling and Power Setup
-
Lay power and communication cables (AC and control lines) through pre-installed conduits.
-
Reserve extra cable length for internal wiring.
-
Verify cable types and voltage match the gate’s technical requirements.
3. Fixing the Turnstile Body
-
Position the gate body precisely over the marked points.
-
Drill anchor holes and install expansion bolts.
-
Secure the gate using anchor screws to ensure stability and alignment.
4. Internal Wiring
-
Open the turnstile’s top or side panel to access internal wiring terminals.
-
Connect the power supply (AC 100–240V) to the controller.
-
Wire in the access control system (e.g., RFID reader, biometric module).
-
Ensure communication lines (RS485/TCP-IP) are properly connected.
5. Functional Testing
-
Power on the gate and check indicator lights, motor movement, and reader response.
-
Test both entry and exit directions.
-
Confirm anti-pinch, emergency release, and sensor alignment are working properly.
6. Access Control Integration
-
Install external access control devices (if not built-in).
-
Configure access permissions and open/close signals.
-
Connect with central control software or standalone controller.
7. Safety & Emergency Checks
-
Simulate a power failure or fire alarm to verify fail-safe (auto-open) function.
-
Check sensor accuracy and passage detection.
-
Make sure LED indicators and alarms respond correctly.
8. Final Adjustment & Commissioning
-
Adjust swing arm tension and delay time as needed.
-
Calibrate passage direction, speed, and user prompts.
-
Secure all covers and clean the turnstile surface.
✅ Note: Always follow the installation manual and comply with local electrical and safety codes. Improper installation may affect gate performance or warranty validity.
🚪 Use and Operation
Compact swing gate turnstile offers smooth and intelligent pedestrian control for various scenarios. Key usage aspects include:
-
Access Modes: Supports multiple authentication methods: RFID, fingerprint, facial recognition, QR code, or mobile app. You can configure entry and exit directions separately.
-
Passage Logic: Once a valid credential is presented, the gate opens automatically. It resets if no passage occurs within the set time.
-
Safety Features: The gate stops movement when obstruction is detected. In case of power outage or fire alarm, it opens automatically for emergency evacuation.
-
User Feedback: LED indicators and optional audio prompts guide users through access steps. Visual cues show direction and status clearly.
-
Maintenance & Cleaning: Regularly clean sensors and swing arms. Check for firmware updates or wear in mechanical parts. Prevent dust or moisture from entering the cabinet.
Notes
Before starting installation or wiring, be sure to disconnect the power supply to avoid the risk of electric shock or damage to internal components. The device should not be used in environments with high temperature, excessive humidity, or strong electromagnetic interference, as these conditions may affect its performance and longevity.
To ensure stable operation, regularly inspect the working status of key components such as the card reader and electric lock. Pay attention to response speed and abnormal behavior to detect potential issues early.
If the device malfunctions, do not attempt to disassemble or repair it by yourself. Contact qualified technical personnel to perform inspection and maintenance, in order to avoid further damage or safety hazards.
FAQ
1. What happens to the gate during a power failure?
In the event of a power outage or emergency signal (such as a fire alarm), the swing gate automatically unlocks and opens to allow free passage, ensuring safe evacuation.
2. Can the turnstile integrate with existing access control systems?
Yes. The swing gate supports integration with most access control platforms using standard interfaces such as RS485, TCP/IP, and dry contacts. It also works with RFID, fingerprint, face recognition, and QR code systems.
3. Is the gate suitable for outdoor use?
Outdoor installation is possible with the weatherproof (IP54 or IP65) version. For best results, we recommend placing the gate under a canopy or sheltered area to protect it from direct rain and sunlight.
4. What is the typical passage width and can it be customized?
The standard passage width is 600 mm. However, it can be customized up to 900 mm to accommodate wheelchairs, strollers, or wider items, depending on the model.
5. How often does the gate require maintenance?
The system is designed for low maintenance. We recommend checking the sensors, swing arm movement, and access control response every 3 to 6 months to ensure optimal performance.
