ONNECTIONS
:
For applications where AC Power drops out on a regular basis, an optional Solar Panel may be installed to help keep the
batteries charged. (Please note: Solar and battery backup power are for limited operations and not intended for high traffic
applications. Fully charged batteries can operate a gate from 5 - 100 times depending on the application. Heavy gates, on
hills, with poor hardware are going to operate fewer times than light gates, level, with good hardware.)
Alarm & Warning Inputs:
1. Allows an external Alarm to be active during shutdown
applications and also during gate motion if desired.
2. Allows external Warning Light to be active during gate motion.
Connecting External Alarm & Warning Light:
1. Connect Warning Light to WARNING NO and WARNING COM.
2. Connect Alarm to ALARM NO and ALARM COM.
3. Set DIP Switch 1 to OFF for the Alarm to only sound in
shutdown applications.
4. Set DIP Switch 1 to ON for the Alarm to beep while gate is
moving and sound the alarm in shutdown applications.

Solar Panel Inputs:
1. Allows an optional Solar Panel to be connected to the system
for added charging.
2. Output is limited to sunlight, gate application, battery size, and
Solar Panel output. To increase capacity, increase the size of
each Solar Panel and battery capacity.
Connecting Solar Panels:
1. Use one 20 Watt, 24VDC Solar Panel OR two 20 Watt, 12VDC
Solar Panels together in series.
2. Connect the Solar Panel positive to SOLAR +
3. Connect the Solar Panel negative to SOLAR -
Batteries should be tested regularly for proper battery backup operation.
Batteries should be replaced each year or as needed.
