The document provides step-by-step installation instructions for a MySpot 200 parking barrier system on a concrete surface. It details locating and preparing the installation site, unpacking and identifying parts, drilling anchor holes, inserting anchors, aligning and securing mounting plates, attaching the barrier and pod units, testing functionality with remote controls, and troubleshooting tips.

1. MySpot 200 Installation Procedure (Concrete) 19JULY2007

2. Locating the MySpot 200 The unit is placed so that, when the car is parked the barrier is ahead of the rear wheels but does not interfere with the access to the front doors.

3. Install in Middle Only install the unit in the middle of the space

4. Space Requirements Surface must be flat No standing water No high points

5. Inspect the Carton A: PowerPod (includes the electronics and the mechanism) B: IdlePod C: Barrier D: (2) remote controls E: Parts kit F: Drilling Template

6. Where to Place the Unit Place the template “TT” as shown

7. Direction of Template The template must be perpendicular to the edge of the parking space Note the direction of the arrow on the template

8. Drill Pilot Holes Use a small (6mm, ¼”) drill to mark the 7 holes by drilling through the template into the surface Do not drill directly with the larger drill Remove template Verify that all 7 holes are clearly visible

9. Concrete or Asphalt? The procedure is different for concrete and for asphalt surfaces. If the surface is asphalt, close this manual and select the “Asphalt installation” manual

10. Concrete Anchors 7 anchors are included Each includes a special M6 bolt and washer They require a 65mm hole depth They require a hole diameter of 10mm (3/8”)

11. Concrete: Drill 7 holes Use a 10mm (3/8”) masonry drill Drill precisely where the 7 small holes were marked Drill to a depth of 65mm (2.5”) or more Blow holes clean when done

12. Insert Anchors Push anchors into holes until the head is flush with ground Use M6 wrench to tighten Allen bolt moderately Do not remove bolts yet

13. Clean Surface Broom sweep area

14. Remove Screws Removed the bolts and washers from the 7 anchors

15. Separate Plates from Pods Remove 4 security bolts from PowerPod Remove 2 security bolts from IdlePod Separate the pods from the plates

16. Attach Plates Use large washers and bolts from anchors (7 sets) Secure plates to ground Do not tighten yet

17. Check alignment Bend or cut template as shown Place template between plates Adjust plates until aligned parallel to edges of template Verify that there is less than 4mm (1/8”) gap between template and plates

18. Tighten Screws Once the alignment has been confirmed, tighten the 7 bolts of the anchors If any bolt will not tighten (anchor slips), remove anchor, use some filler and reapply anchor It is essential that all 7 anchors share the load

19. Attach PowerPod Use the 4 security bolts and washers that came with the IdlePod assembly to secure the pod to the plate If the wrong bolts are used (too long), they will push the plates out of the ground Tighten the 4 bolts securely

20. Disassemble IdlePod The IdlePod needs to be attached to its plate using 3 bolts To access the 3 rd bolt, the cover needs to be removed Use the security wrench to remove the 3 bolts

21. Remove Cover Lift the cover of the IdlePod Lift the shaft The 3 rd hole may be protected by a plastic insert Remove the insert by pushing it from the top

22. Prepare IdlePod Plate Place 2 adaptors over the 2 outside holes in the plate If these adaptors are not in your kit, proceed without them

23. Attach IdlePod Use security bolt, star washer and flat washer to attach the 2 outside ears of the pod to the plate Use a black Allen bolt with star washer and flat washer for the middle attachment point Make sure all bolts are the proper length; bolts that are too long will push the plate off the ground Tighten all 3 bolts

24. Place Shaft in IdlePod Place the shaft back so that the slot fits over the bar in the base The cowling on the shaft must be free to fall forward (towards the entrance to the space) If it is not, rotate the shaft 180 degrees before placing it on the base

25. Close Cover of IdlePod Place the cover over the IdlePod Make sure it is seated correctly Secure in place using 3 security bolts with star washers

26. WARNING Failure to use the internal bolt for mounting the IdlePod to the plate will cause the IdlePod ears to break off and void the warranty

27. Install the Barrier Slide the barrier over the cowlings of the 2 pods as shown The barrier should be kept parallel to the ground as it is being installed Only minimal force is required If excessive force is required, check the alignment of the pods

28. Secure the Barrier Use the 4 short security bolts and star washers Tighten securely using the special wrench in the kit

29. Ready for Test The installation is now complete. The next steps cover the test procedure

30. The Remotes 2 Remote controls are included in the kit Each remote can control up to 9 separate barriers The barrier in the kit was factory programmed to accept the #2 button on each of the 2 remotes

31. Terminology Please study the sketch on the right Shown are 4 states of the barrier

32. Locked Up State This is the normal “blocking” state Applying moderate force to the barrier in either direction will not move the barrier However, if the force exceeds 30 Kg (65 lbs), the barrier will yield When the excessive force is removed, the barrier will return to the Locked Up state.

33. Barrier Does not Respond If the barrier does not respond when removed from the carton.. And it is in the Locked Down state.. Use the Emergency key To release the barrier A. Remove the security bolt and washer B. Use the 6mm Allen wrench and rotate the internal bolt counter clockwise

34. UnLocked State Press the #2 button on the Remote. The barrier will fall Its new position is the Un Locked state In this state, the barrier can be raised by hand with no resistance If raised all the way, it will lock in the Locked Up position If the barrier was previously manually raised, when the command drops the barrier to the UnLocked state, the internal motor can be heard running an extra cycle. This is normal

35. Locked Down State When a wheel of the car drives over the barrier, the barrier is pushed to the ground That is the Overtravel state When the wheel leaves the barrier, the barrier returns to the Locked Down state The only way to exit the locked down state is via a remote command

36. Testing, continued If the barrier is in the Unlocked state… … Step on the barrier You need to apply 100 Kg (220 lbs) to force the barrier to the ground Jump if your weight is less than that… The barrier will hit the ground When you step off, it will rise somewhat to the Locked Down state

37. Testing, Last Step Step on the barrier a second time The barrier needs to be driven on twice, like a car getting in and out, to prevent accidental raising of the barrier under a parked car Push the #2 button on the remote The barrier will rise to the Locked Up position

38. Troubleshooting If you run into a problem when testing the unit Look up the troubleshooting chart The chart is printed at the end of the installation manual Or it is available on the web site
