In-Wall System Override
The Schwintek In-Wall slide system can be manually overridden in two different methods depending on
the malfunction. The
Electronic Override Method
can be used if there is an electrical component
failure where the RV still has power, but the electrical signal is not getting from the in/out switch
through the controller to the motors. The
Motor Disengagement Method
is used if there is complete
power failure and can also be used rather than the electronic override method however is a more
complex operation. Carefully read the manufacturer's literature provided in your owner information
packet for complete operating instructions prior to using.
Electronic Override Method
1.
Locate the controller box (See Figure 3 below for identification).
2.
Refer to the instructions on the controller label; Press the mode button on the controller six times
and hold on the seventh for five seconds to enter electronic manual override mode.
3.
Use the extend/retract switch to move both motors in and out.
NOTE:
Over-current and short circuit detection are still enabled. Electronic manual override
provides 12V directly to both motors.
4.
To exit the mode, push and hold the mode button until the LEDs begin to blink simultaneously.
Exiting the override mode resets the motor positions (you will have to resync motors. See
procedure below).
NOTE:
During this override procedure the motors are not synchronized. Visually watch the
room: if one side is moving significantly slower than the other (or not at all) then immediately
stop and use the
Motor Disengagement Method
outlined below.
