ELECTRICAL WIRING INFORMATION FOR S/O
The sensing controller is designed to provide different trip settings for the "In" and
"Out" strokes of the slide-out.
CAUTION:
The wiring for the slide-out should be completed per the following wiring
diagram or the RV may be damaged.
Modification of wiring schematic other than reversal of motor leads WILL
cause improper operation of the sensing controller and the slide-out, and may
cause damage to the RV.
CAUTION:
The switch wires, motor wires and ground wire can be connected to the control
at any time during installation prior to the power being connected. The battery
line must be connected to the control BEFORE the battery is connected, but
cannot be connected until after the system has been high potted.
The control box WILL be damaged if any of the leads are grounded or touched
together when power is connected to the system.
Step 1)
Locate control box somewhere safe from damage, water and dust.
Step 2)
Secure control box to a sturdy wall or floor using a 3/16" self tapping wood or sheet
metal screw in the holes provided.
Step 3)
Prior to power hookup connect all wires per the attached wire hookup instruction
table and wiring schematic.
Step 4)
Verify wire connections are correct. Prior to power hookup, verification of switch
wire connections may be accomplished by checking continuity. Verify continuity
between the wire to be connected to the "SW.IN" and chassis ground when the
switch is depressed to the "IN" position. Also, verify continuity between the wire to
be connected to the "SW.OUT" and chassis ground when the switch is depressed to
the "OUT" position.
Step 5)
Provided the previous step has been followed, if the red wire is connected to the
+12V source, the motor will turn clockwise, viewed from face mount when the switch
is depressed to the "IN" position.
NOTE: If motor runs in reverse direction, verify switch connections are correct and reverse
motor leads. (Do not reverse switch leads)
