Step 1:
Determine the optimum location for the EXIT WAND using the information found in “Placement of the
WAND” on page 2. Then dig a hole approximately 12 inches deep and 24 inches long within 2 feet and parallel to
the edge of the driveway. Next, dig a trench approximately 12 inches deep from this hole to a spot under the gate
opener control box to run the cable from the WAND to the control board.
Keep the WAND and the cable uncovered at this time, but out of direct sunlight.
We recommend that the cable be run in PVC conduit to the control box to prevent damage to the cable from lawn
mowers, weed eaters and grazing animals.
Step 4:
Unscrew and remove the lock nut from the
WIRE CLAMP hub (
included with hardware
). From
the outside of the control box, insert the WIRE CLAMP
hub and sealing nut (
see illustration right
) into the
new
WIRE CLAMP hole
. Finger tighten the lock nut onto
the threaded end of the WIRE CLAMP hub from inside
the box.
Installing The WIRE CLAMP:
The WIRE CLAMP (in-
cluded) is used to secure the wand cable where it enters the control box
to prevent it from being accidently pulled out.
Step 2:
If you are installing the WAND on a PRO-SW1000/2000 or
PRO-SL1000/2000 gate opener, use a screwdriver or steel punch to
carefully remove the thin plastic knockout disk (
see illustrations at
right
) at the bottom of the control box. If you have a dual gate opener
system, drill a 7/8” diameter hole at the bottom of the control box and
install the WIRE CLAMP.
Step 3:
Use a sharp knife or deburring tool to clean the rough edges
from the hole.
Be careful with tools to avoid contact or damage to the control
board!
