What Does SPS Mean?

Viking Access Positioning System

In 2023, all Viking Access Systems gate openers will have a smart positioning system (SPS). But you may wonder, “What does this mean, and what benefits does it have?” The innovative technology not only detects the position of a gate no matter what power status the opener has, but it also, even after a complete power failure, can retain its limits – eliminating any troublesome re-learning process.


Two Main Functions Of The SPS System

Gate Position Detection

The SPS can find the position of a gate in an instant, no matter what power status the gate opener is at.

Retention Of Limits

Along with this feature, the SPS system can retain limits even if there is a complete power failure.


These features come with updated sensors and a gearbox mechanism that is added to the main drive of the operator. This system was launched on January 2nd, 2023, so if you currently have a Viking Access Systems Gate Opener made before this, it will not include these features.
