ELECTRICAL WIRING  

WARNING !!!

Danger of electrical shock is poss ible while connecting the wiring on this equi pment

.  

Take special care when connecting any  electrical wires. Ensure that ALL power is switched off or isolated before any   
connections are m ade. This equipment is supplied with a 16 volt AC transform er. Do not open or tam per with the  
transform er as this could cause electrical shock.  
The transformer delivers a 16 volt AC out-put to the charger on the m ain P.C.Board. This 16 volt  supply  will keep the 
battery  charged. The battery  operates the m otor. In the case of mains power failure, the battery  will continue to operate the 
m otor as normal until the battery  goes flat. The m otor will then stop operating.   

Note

: this is a battery  operated m otor and will not operate with a flat battery  regardless of the m ains supply  being 

switched on. 
The  16 volt AC wiring from  the transform er in the house to the charger on the m ain P.C.Board m ust be run in a conduit 
from  the house to the m otor. The conduit m ust term inate inside the m otor. No j oins in the cable should be made between 
the transformer and the m otor.  
The cable used to run the 16 volt AC from  the transformer to the charger should be a m inim um  of a three core 1.5mm  
cable. The conduit should have no sharp bends in it as this may  cause problem s in the future if the cable needs to be 
pulled out and replaced. The conduit should be buried 300mm  underground.  
 
DO NOT RUN 220 VOLTS IN THE SAME CONDUIT AS 16 VOLTS. 

Connect the E (earth) from  the transform er to the 

green and yellow wire

 on the main P.C.Board.

The following diagram s show the correct wiring of the electric m otor to the main P.C.Board. The m otor wires are found  
protruding from  the m otor, there are two wires, one wire is blue in colour the other wire is black in colour.  

PROG RAMMING  THE MOTOR 

The m otor m ust be programm ed to the gate in order to operate correctly . .  
It is im portant to note that the following points should be checked before the gate is programm ed.  
 
1. 

Motor is level. 

2. 

Rack is secure to the gate and engaged with the pinion gear. 

3. 

The gate has adequate end stops. (

DO NOT 

automate a gate without end stops.) 

4. 

The gate runs freely  and does not jam  at 

ANY

 part of travel. 

5. 

The magnet is m ounted correctly . (Com pact 500 only) 

TO PROGRAM THE MOTOR. Ensure that all power is rem oved from  the board. 
1. 

Manually  open the gate 1m  -1.5m   This will be the pedestrian opening distance. 

2. 

Lock the gate in place. (Operational m ode.) 

3. 

Insert the program  j um per over the two pins on the P.C. Board called “prog m otor”. 

4. 

Apply  the battery  power.  The status L.E.D. will flash rapidly . 

5. 

Press the trigger button. on the P.C.Board. The gate will automatically  do the following                 

6.             A) 

Close

 slowly  until the end stop is struck. 

                B) 

Open

 slowly  until the end stop is struck. 

7.           When the m otor is fully  open. Rem ove the j um per from  the prog m otor pins. 
8.           Apply  the AC m ains power and ensure that the green “charge” led comes on. 
The m otor is now fully  programm ed and ready  for norm al use.  

NOTE

 the programm ing procedure can be aborted at any  stage sim ply  by  rem oving the battery  wires. This will stop the m otor 

and the process can be re-started at any  tim e. 
In 

step (6 A)  

the gate m ust close first. If  the gate opens first, then the 

motor wires 

m ust be reversed. This will change the 

m otor direction. {See Setting the m otor direction} 

Do not 

connect any  other trigger wires to the board until the m otor is fully  programmed.
