Connecting To Garage Control Unit Directly - DigiTech digiGate User Manual

2. Locate the two terminals connected to the reverse of the garage button and connect cable 1 and 2 from
the digiGate to these as shown in the diagram below. Do the same for the second garage switch with cables
6 and 7. It does not matter which cable in the pairs connects to which terminal as long as they are not both
connected to the same.
3. Re-assemble the override switch again with the front fixed back in place. Ensure no metal from the
cables is exposed.
4. With the cables connected, you now need to mount your digiGate on the mount you put on the wall
earlier. Please skip to section 11 to see how this is done.
9.2.2 Connecting to garage control unit directly
Note: This section assumes you do not have/do not want to connect to a push button switch for your garage and wish to connect
your digiGate directly onto the garage control module itself.
1. IMPORTANT - Ensure you have switched off the mains power for the garage control unit.
2. Access the main circuitboard by either removing the front cover or opening the casing. There should
be some accessible screws on the outside of the front panel which need to be removed. Once removed,
carefully lift off the panel but be careful not to force the panel off in case there are some cables attached, in
which case remove these gently.
3. Locate the NO (Normally open) and earth/ground (negative) terminals on the unit, this is where the
digiGate cables will connect to. If you have an override switch, the cables from this will be plugged into
these terminals.
Note: If you do not know which terminals the NO and earth/ground are for your unit, please contact us at
installation@digiGate.co.uk with a photo and make/model number of your gate switch and we will get back to you with
instructions on which terminals to connect to.
4. Connect the other end of cable 1 to the NO (Normally Open) terminal and the other end of cable 2 to
the earth/ground terminal (Negative) as shown in the diagram below. Do the same for both garage control
units with the cables in terminals 6 and 7 on the digiGate for the second door unit.
5. With the cables connected, you now need to position your digiGate onto the mount you have fixed to
the wall. Please skip to section 11 to see how this is done.
