Next stage of the installation is to introduce the motor(s) to the control board. From following your

‘Motor

Installation Guide

’ each motor is wired the respective terminals as required for your particular model of

automation. If you do not have this guide to hand, below is a re-cap of connections to the control board
based on the model and which side of the gate is to open first (LEFT HAND / RIGHT HAND)

Connecting the motors to the control board

Connecting the capacitors to the control board

It is essential to wire the capacitors for the motors to the
control board. Typically these are wired into the same
terminals as the Brown (opening) and the Black
(closing) wires. In effect, both will be sharing the same
terminal space. Without the capacitor, the motors will
struggle to start and may “BUZZ” without movement to
the mechanical arm.

Connection illustrated right:

Having attached the motor(s), we can now introduce the photocells to the control board.
