Swing gate operator main control board – NICE

Nice (formerly also Nice Apollo) offers a range of control boards for their swing gate operators, each with specific features and compatibilities. These control boards are the “brain” of the gate system, managing motor functions, safety features, and access control.

Here are some of the prominent Nice swing gate operator main control boards and their general characteristics:

Common Nice Control Board Models and Features for the swing gate operator:

• Nice Apollo 1050US (and 1050i):
  • Features: This is a popular and advanced control board. It typically includes an LCD display for easy programming and diagnostics, a 7-day programmable event timer, and an innovative obstacle detection system. It’s designed for seamless integration with a wide array of Nice Apollo gate operators.
  • Compatibility: Compatible with various Nice Apollo models, including swing gate openers like the Apollo Linear Actuators, Titan Linear Actuators, and Vanguard 3501. The “US” version (1050US) is UL325 2018 compliant, requiring monitored safety devices, while the “i” version (1050i) does not require them, making it suitable for regions with different safety compliance standards.
  • Power: Supports solar, AC power, and backup battery systems.
  • Connectivity: Often includes a built-in receiver for remote transmitters and is compatible with Nice BlueBUS safety devices.
• Nice Apollo Mercury 310 (MX4920):
  • Features: UL 325 7th Edition compliant with built-in force entrapment protection. It features a solar battery charge controller with MPPT for optimized energy use and plug-and-play functionality.
  • Compatibility: Integrated with Nice BlueBUS and OXI accessories, and supports residential linear swing gate actuators.
• Nice Apollo 636:
  • Features: Dual 12VDC control for swing and slide gate openers, with obstacle detection and force monitoring for enhanced safety. It integrates BlueBUS for simplified wiring of monitored safety devices and has a programmable dual-gate delay and auto-close. LED feedback aids in diagnostics.
  • Compatibility: Works with Apollo Linear Actuators (e.g., Apollo 1500, 1600).
• Nice SmartCNX:
  • Features: Designed for modern automation with wireless and cloud connectivity. Offers advanced diagnostic tools for real-time monitoring and troubleshooting.
  • Compatibility: Fully compatible with BlueBUS and plug-in safety devices. Customizable settings for motor speed, force, and cycle timing. Works with AC, solar, and battery backup.
• Nice Mindy Series (e.g., A60, A6F, A700f, A824, A924):
  • Features: These are older or more specialized control panels, often featuring pull-out terminals, multiple photocell inputs, and microprocessor logic. Some are 24V versions with encoders for precise control.
  • Functionality: Offer features like obstacle detection, auto-programming, and self-diagnosis systems.
