SECTION 1 WIRING
1.1
12VDC Supply Wire
1.1.1 The 12VDC supply wire must be run from
the 12VDC supply source to the Control
Box. It is recommended that these wires
be RED+ and Black– 12 gauge wires. This
needs to be on a separate 15 amp circuit.
See FIG. 1.1.
1.1.2 To ensure proper operation, the control
box must have a minimum of 12.5 VDC at
the control box during operation. Check
voltage output on the Red and Black wire
at the control box. If voltage is below 12.5,
check voltage at supply, If OK it may be
necessary to increase the wire size going
to the control box. See FIG. 1.1.
1.2 Wire From Control Box to Awning. Arm As-
sembly (WeatherPro) and Awning Motor (Oa-
sis Elite)
A Red and Black Wire (WeatherPro) Red/White
and Blue wire (Oasis Elite) of adequate size must
be run between the control box and the awning.
To avoid voltage drop follow the chart below to
determining the proper size wire to be used.

1.3 Wire Inside Hardware Channel (WeatherPro Only)
To make the connection between the wire run in
1.2 and the awning motor there is a cable run in
the hardware from the bottom to the top. Check
this wire for pinches or breaks. If wire is defec-
tive replace with new harness.
1.4 Motor Connection & Motor
1.4.1 The awning motor is connected to the
hardware at the top of the awning hard-
ware front channel. Make sure connec-
tion is tight and corrosion free.
1.4.2 Disconnect the motor from the hardware
connection. See FIG. 1.4. Apply DC volt-
age directly to the motor wire connector.
A minimum of 12.5 VDC is required to op-
erate the motor. If motor does not turn it is
defective and the drive assembly must be
replaced.
