✅ Nice Apollo 1050 Control Board ● Setting up Slow Down Mode for Your Gate Opener

In this video I explain how to set up Slow Down Mode for a rural gate operator system that runs on solar and uses Nice 1050 board, LA861 Linear Actuator, BlueBus Photo Eye, and Cartell Exit Sensor. This prevents your gate from slamming when opening and closing.

When my gate opens after it slows down but at the end it still slams with my curb, how can i adjust it so it wont slam to my curb. I have slowdown setting same as yours.

[@ApacheRanch]

If you have maxed out the slow down, then you might try adjusting the "stop" on that arm so that it reaches the distance limit a little bit sooner. Then the sway of the arm due to the movement won't bump your curb.

@@ApacheRanch how do you set up that? I went on vacation for three weeks, upon returning battery died. I replaced the battery and after that its been tough to make it work. I had to hard reset every day, it would run like 5-7 cycle (24 hours) and wont work. It will just click but wont operate. So, finally i gave up and switched to manual mode. And now i came across your video and messaged you. Sun charger has good voltage as well as the battery is also new. Check the Sensor and no obstruction but i am assuming since it runs to curb it triggers something. I tried with LEARN process to make it stop at the desired position while open but it didnt work. So let see, What would be ideal Static/Dynamic Value for this. I have a Single Swing Average Size gate.

@deliciousdeli6722 on the actuator arms themselves there are adjustment screws that you turn to halt the movement of the arm. I have another video on a single farm gate install where I think I explained how to do that.

Thanks, the "Nice" people do not go over it very clearly.
UPDATE: It wasn't working at first, totally my fault, with all the problems i had with this board, I needed to also had to "learn" the gate swing again. Then this worked perfectly - thanks again, just wanted to share in case someone else has the same problem I did.
I have had mine about 2 years, and it gives me problems almost monthly, they have sent me 2 new boards and I am going out once again to figure out why its not closing again!!!
Question, is there a way to program my car to open the gate, it seems to only work with the factory remote.

I’ve had same experiences with board replacements. Not pleasant. And no, you can only use Nice remotes with the nice receiver. BUT - it’s easy to add a third party receiver inside your box, connect it to the Nice board, and then use what remotes you wish with that receiver.
