NOTE: Before powering, gate operator must be connected
to the control box – damage may occur if gate operator
is connected directly to a battery or other power source.
Step 1
Ensure the control box power switch is in the OFF
position. The control box power switch is located on the
bottom of the control box.
NOTE: Use only 16 gauge dual conductor, multi-stranded,
direct burial wire for AC power hookup. Follow local
electrical codes.
Step 2
If using AC power to charge the battery, connect wire to the
control box as shown in fig. 19.
If charging battery with a solar panel(s), refer to Accessory
Hook-Up Diagram fig. 32 on page 28.
Connect wires from primary operator (and secondary
operator if installing on a dual gate) to the control box as
shown in fig. 19. Wire should be buried in accordance with
local codes.
WARNING: DO NOT CONNECT BOTH TRANSFORMER AND
SOLAR PANEL. THIS SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO RUN ON ONLY
ONE POWER SOURCE. CONNECTING BOTH POWER SOURCES
CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO CIRCUIT BOARD AND WILL VOID
WARRANTY.
