Connect a 2 core wire (1.5mm Twin Active cable) from the slave motor connection terminal block 
to the unused motor terminals on the circuit board. 

 
 

 

Battery Connection 

 

Double piggy back spade 
connectors for solar power or 
single spade connectors for 
transformer power 

 
 

 

Place the battery on the bench between the motors 
Refer to the “DC 2 

Circuit Board” 

data sheet included with this manual and locate the battery 

wires on the circuit board. Ensure the battery wires are correctly connected to the correct 
terminals on the circuit board. Connect the other end of the battery wires to the battery terminals 
on the battery. Note the polarity (

 

Red 

wire to

 

Red 

battery terminal, 

Black / Blue 

wire to 

Black 

battery terminal). The board should now be powered and great care should be taken to avoid 
shorting out or otherwise damaging the circuit board. 

 

 

WARNING: Care should be taken as there are moving components inside the

 

 

gate motor that may cause damage or personal injury.
