MySpot™ 500 V2a
Remote Controlled Parking Barrier
Congratulations!
MySpot 500 rugged construction,
careful design and attention to
detail will provide you with years
of service and enjoyment. However, like all things mechanical
and electronic, proper installation
and use are essential in order for
the product to perform as designed.
10 Ridge Road
MySpot 500 is installed in the
middle of the space to block access to a parking space.
We suggest that you keep this
manual in the car’s glove compartment, The manual will refresh your memory how to use
the barrier, as well as show you
how to recognize when the batteries need replacing and how to
go about it.
On command, the barrier is rotated down away from the incoming car to allow access to the
parking space. A second command will raise the barrier to the
vertical position where it guards
the space.
If external damage to the packing
is evident, notify the carrier immediately. Shipping damage is not
covered by the manufacturer’s
warranty.
WARNING! Barrier may cause pedestrian or users to trip over it.
Please install and provide warning
signs accordingly. Note that Public
Liability should be in place.

Operating the Barrier
The MySpot 500 is
provided with 2
handheld remotes
(“fobs”) that have
been factory programmed to control
this individual barrier. Only button #2
on these remotes is programmed to
control the barrier.
The fob will control the barrier from a
distance of 1 foot to 40 feet (0.3 meter to 12 meters). You need to hold
the fob horizontally and face the front
of the barrier (the “Reserved” yellow
strip on the housing of the barrier).
Pressing button 2 on the fob will
raise the barrier if it was down, or
lower it if the barrier was up.
If the barrier hits resistance on its
way up, it will stop and reverse itself
to bring the barrier back down. If the
barrier hits resistance on the way
down, it will stop and await a new
command. A new command will
direct the barrier to continue going
down.
Low Battery Warning: Once the
unit detects that the battery is neari n g d i s c h a r g e , t h e b a r r i e r wi l l
“hesitate: for one second at 45 degrees every time it is commanded to
go down. After 50 such warning
cycles, the barrier will refuse to go up
any further, until the batteries have
been replaced.

Defense
What happens if the barrier is
forced down from the upright position?
The MySpot 500 is designed to absorb such external forces and yield if
they exceed a dangerous point. The
barrier will return on its own to the
upright position once the external
force has been removed.
The Defense works in both directions — if the barrier is forced towards the back of the parking space,
or if it is forced towards the front of
the parking space.
WARNING: The internal defense
spring can store damaging energy
when the barrier is abruptly released.

Replacing remote’s batteries
When the batteries in the HT remote control approach their endof-life, the HT will signal the condition by delaying the transmission of a command. The green
indicator on the remote control
will flash for a few seconds, before the normal pattern of turning
solid for 2 seconds (while it
sends the command) takes
place.
To replace the batteries, open
the two small Philips screws on
the back of the unit. Replace the
2 Lithium button batteries with
CR2016 batteries. Observe polarity! Check operation of the
indicator before closing. If OK,
close with the two screws.
Remote’s Features
The HT (Hand Transmitter) remote, supplied with
the MySpot 500,
works closely in conjunction with the ’500
to offer an array of
features unique in
the industry. In this section we
cover some of these features.
Why 3 buttons?

Barrier Does not Respond
When you press the remote,
watch the front panel of the base
of the barrier. If the red LED is
flashing in response to the command, it means that the remote is
not paired with the barrier. See
page 4 for pairing procedures.
Another cause for no response
can be that the barrier batteries
are run down. This however will
be preceded by 50 activations
where the unit indicated low battery. See page 2.
Barrier does not rise/drop fully
This is an indication that there is
external resistance that blocks
the movement of the barrier, or
designatedParking.com
causes the barrier
slower than usual.
to
move
A possible reason for slow movement or failure to reach the full up
and down positions may be due
to the barrier being bent/
misaligned (after a car bumped
into it).
Each button on the HT remote
control generates an individual
code. That allows one remote to
control 3 individual MySpot 500.
The HT also supports a 2-button
mode of operation. In the 2button mode, 9 MySpots can be
controlled individually.
1 or 2 Button Code?
Barrier does not lock in the Up
position
If the barrier moves properly and
reaches the vertical position, but
it offers no resistance against
push=back at that position, there
may be a failure of the internal
barrier lock.
The base housing assembly
needs to be sent to the factory/
distributor for repair with the 2
remotes. Ask for a replacement
unit if the unit is under warranty.
MySpot 500 Manual page 10
The HT is shipped in the mode
where only one button is required
to be pressed. For applications
where more than 3 adjacent barriers need to be controlled, the
HT can be set to a two-button
mode. Up to 9 adjacent barriers
can be individually controlled. A
command is sent only after 2
buttons are pressed in sequence
(e.g. button 2 then button 1).
To program the HT remote to the
2-button mode, or to return it to
its 1-botton mode, see page 5.
designatedParking.com
Pairing
Paring is a procedure whereby a
remote is added to the list of devices that are authorized to control the barrier. It is similar to the
procedure used to pair your
Smartphone with your car for
hands-free operation.
Toggle vs. Discrete Commands
Toggle commands instruct the
barrier to alternately go up and
go down. This is the standard
configuration for the barrier and
the HT.
Toggle commands are a simple
and effective to control the barrier when it is in line of sight.
You know that if the barrier is
down and you send a command,
the barrier will go up, and vice
versa.
There are applications where
Discrete commands are preferred. The commands are Up
and Down. If one sends an Up
command and the barrier is up,
the command will be ignored.
Likewise, when the barrier is
down, a Down command will be
ignored.
Discrete commands are available
when using the PK250 longrange transmitter.
MySpot 500 Manual page 3
Pairing Procedure
Pairing links a remote to the barrier. When an un-paired remote
sends a command to the barrier,
the barrier will not respond to the
command as this command has
not been authorized. The red
LED on the front of the barrier will
flash for 1/2 second to acknowledge the signal. We refer to unpaired but otherwise valid signals
as RED commands.
When a paired command is received, the green LED will flash.
We refer to these as GREEN
commands.
Adding Remotes
Paring a new remote is a 4-step
procedure. It requires a previously paired HT and the new remote to be paired. We refer to
the pre-paired remote as the
GREEN remote and to the new
one as RED remote.
Preparations:
1. Bring the barrier down using
the Green remote
2. For the duration of the pairing procedure, stand on the
barrier to prevent it from rising
3. Each step must follow its
predecessor within 5 seconds. If the time was exceeded, the paring sequence
designatedParking.com
Batteries Replacement
will be aborted and the red
LED will flash once.
4. If the step was performed
within the required time and
in the proper sequence, the
Green or Red LED will flash
a number of times indicating
the completed step count (1
to 4).
Step 1: With the barrier down,
stand on the barrier and send a
Green command (from the prepaired HT). The green LED on
the barrier housing will flash
once.
Step 2: As soon as the LED on
the HT has turned off, send another Green command (from the
pre-paired remote). The green
LED on the barrier housing will
flash 2 times.
The 5 batteries should provide 2
to 3 years of life under residential
operating conditions. When the
batteries approach their end-oflife, MySpot 500 will stop for 1
second midway on its way down.
If the batteries are not replaced
before they are completely exhausted after 50 additional operations, the barrier will accept
one last command and will stay
down .
To replace the batteries:
1. Loosen the right hand end
cap by removing 3 hex
screws using a 3mm hex
wrench
The new remote has now been
paired and can control the barrier
just like any “green” remote.
MySpot 500 Manual page 4
4. Observe the polarity of the 5 batteries as you
insert them. Failure to do so
will damage the electronics.
5. Gently push back the battery
holder until it is fully inside
the housing.
6. Rotate the end cap with the
barrier back to its place at
the end of the housing.
Make sure that the gasket is
positioned and aligned between the end cap and the
housing.
The alignment
needs to be perfect to prevent water damage.
7.
Step 3: As soon as the LED on
the “green” HT has turned off,
send a Red command (from the
un-paired remote). The red LED
on the barrier housing will flash 3
times.
Step 4: As soon as the LED on
the HT has turned off, send a
Green command (from the prepaired remote). The green LED
on the barrier housing will flash 4
times.

8. Failure to use the 3 nylon
washers will allow water to
seep into the housing and
damage the electronics.
2. Rotate the

holder as
far as it goes.
Use the longer (10 mm)

Installation on Asphalt
Special Configurations
Erase Memory (Boot)
1. Do not attempt to use the
expansion anchors that are
provided in the kit for installation on asphalt. The expansion anchors are guaranteed
to loosen up in a matter of
hours.
6. Clean the area
7. Prepare the EPX2 grout (part
number 82-5002). You will
need about one half of an
EPX2 bag per hole.
8. To activate the EPX2, add
about a 1/4 of a cup of water
to the bag and mix thoroughly by kneading the bag.
9. Use the bag to pour the grout
into the hole, filling it to the
top.
2. Use our SP10 asphalt anchors. These come in Metric
(SP10-M8 with a M8 thread)
and Imperial (SP10-38, with
a 3/8” thread). Note that you
can not use the bolts from
the expansion anchors in the
kit with these asphalt anchors due to the length of the
bolts used in the expansion
anchors.
10. Press the anchor into the
hole until it is flush with the
asphalt. (The head of the
anchor will rest on the asphalt.) Do not delay this step
as the grout cures within 1015 minutes.
11. Wipe any excess grout from
around the anchor.
12. 15 minutes after the last
step, remove the bolts from
the anchors and install the
barrier.
3. The SP10-38, stocked in the
USA, come with a suitable
bolt and washer pre-installed.
Boot can be done by pressing an
internal “Boot” switch.
To access the Boot switch requires a full disassembly of the
barrier housing assembly. It is
recommended that this be
done by a qualified technician.
Boot can also be done remotely,
using the PK250 keypad remote
controller, but only if the PK250
was previously paired with the
barrier. Another way is to pair a
total of 16 HT. When the 16th is
added, a boot occurs.
Pairing After Boot
This procedure is only applicable
immediately after the MySpot
was booted. MySpot 500 are
delivered with 2 remotes which
have already been paired. If you
need to add more remotes, see
the procedure “Adding Remotes”
on page 4.
4. If you intend to use the SP10
-M8, you will need to provide
your own washer and bolts.
5. Drill a 22mm (7/8”) hole, 150
mm (6”) deep.
designatedParking.com
The only way to delete remotes
that were previously paired with
the MySpot 500 is to erase all the
paired remotes from the memory
of the barrier. This is also the
case when all the paired remotes
have been lost, and a replacement remote needs to be added.
This erasure is known as a
“Boot”.
To pair a remote after a boot,
send two commands from the
MySpot 500 Manual page 8
designatedParking.com
remote. The first command will
be acknowledged as a RED flash
on the LED in the housing. The
next command will be acknowledged as a GREEN flash.
The barrier has now been paired
with its first remote.
Please keep this remote in a safe
place. It can be used to authorize additional pairing. However,
if you have paired 2 or more HT
with the barrier, any one of them
can act to authorize additional
remotes.
Program 2 Button Mode
To place the HT remote control in
the 2-button mode (where a sequence of 2 keys is required before a command is sent out):
•
Press and hold buttons 1 & 2
simultaneously.
•
After 5 seconds, the indicator
on the HT will start flashing.
Release the buttons. Make
sure that the indicator continues to flash.
•
Press button 2 and hold until
the flashing indicator turns
off.
To place the HT in the 1-button
mode, follow the sequence above
but as the last step press and
hold button 1.
TEST: Press any button once.
IF the indicator responds immediately, you are in 1-button mode.
MySpot 500 Manual page 5
Installation
Installation on Concrete
Gravel, Sand
Mounting the barrier directly to
gravel or sand is not recommended, as no anchor will provide
adequate grip. A suitable concrete
footing needs to be poured.
Front or Middle?
MySpot 500 can be positioned in
two distinct locations within the
parking space – in the middle or
at the front.
Front mounting means that the
car drives in and parks behind
the barrier.
A benefit of front mounting is that
the barrier can to be used as a
theft deterrent, raising it with the
car parked behind it. The barrier
should be installed 0.6 meter (2
feet) from the front end of the
space, to allow the barrier to rise
behind even a large vehicle. You
do not want to install the barrier
any closer to the end of the space
than 0.6 meter because in the
down position it would then fall
outside the bay space.
Installing the barrier at the front in
multi-car parking areas will increase the likelihood that the barrier will be bumped by cars backing up from parking spots across
the aisle and is not recommended.
Middle mounting means that the
barrier will stay under the car
while the car is parked in the
designatedParking.com
space. The advantages of middle-mounting are:
•
The barrier is further removed
from dirt and debris pushed from
the main access lane
•
Cars making J turns are less
likely to bump into the raised
barrier accidentally
•
Cars entering adjacent lanes are
less likely to accidentally hit the
barrier
When placing the barrier in the
middle of the stall, the center line
of the device should be about 1.5
meters (5 feet) from the rear of
the stall.
1.
While standing on one of the
mounting ears of the housing,
use the remote to bring the barrier up to the vertical position
2.
Place the barrier at the location
you selected.
3.
Mark the 4 holes using the
mounting ears as your template
4.
If you are installing on concrete
or other masonry surfaces, use
the expansion anchors that are
provided in the MySpot 500 kit.
5.
Drill four 10mm (3/8”) holes,
65mm (2 3/4”) deep.
6.
Push the anchor into the hole
MySpot 500 is sealed to prevent
water from entering the unit.
However, the housing should not
be exposed to standing water or
ice as it will materially reduce the
range of the remote control signal.
until its head is flush with the
surface, all the while keeping the
bolt in the anchor.
7.
Tighten the bolt a turn or two
until the anchor bites into the
concrete hole walls.
8.
Before removing the bolt (to
attach the barrier), make sure
that no debris will enter the
thread, so clean the area before
you remove the bolts.
Seasonal Removal
If you need to remove the barrier
often (e.g. for snow removal), ask
about our optional mounting
plates.
MySpot 500 Manual page 6
10. Tighten to make sure that the
anchors are holding fast and to
prevent the bolts from loosening
up over time.
What to do if an anchor rotates
in its seat:
If the hole is only slightly oversize,
use a sharp point to hold the anchor against the wall of the hole
and gently tighten the bolt. At
some point, the expanding anchor
will grip the walls of the hole. Turn
the bolt another ½ turn to make
sure the anchor is set.
Standing Water
Select a spot for the housing that
is slightly raised above the surface, or add a plate to raise it. Be
mindful of the added height if low
-clearance cars are to use the
space
bolts to secure the assembly to
the anchors.
9.
Remove the bolts, place the
barrier assembly over the anchors and use the washer and
designatedParking.com
If the hole is too large, you may
need to fill it with concrete mix or
epoxy, and then re-drill once the
mixture has hardened. Inserting
the anchor into the still-liquid epoxy may fill the threads and prevent the anchor from accepting the
bolts. If the bolt is placed while the
filler is not yet hardened, it may not
be able to be withdrawn later.
You may also order DPC MA516
anchors, as these require a 16 mm
(5/8”) hole, and thus can be redrilled in the same location.
