Optional Presets and Remote Manual Up/Down
The three optional remote wires coming from the controller can be used to activate the
linear motors via remote system, such as a Dakota Digital Commander Series. The optional
preset wires: pink, brown, and purple represent preset heights 1, 2, and 3 respectively. To
activate a move to a position the wire needs to be momentarily grounded; this is how most
outputs of remote systems work. Check your remote system
owner’s manual to insure that
the outputs are grounding.
The Manual up (white/red) and Manual down (white/black) wires should NOT be tied to
a remote system. These wires are intended for emergency movement of the motors by
remote switches and will always move the motors regardless of their current state. These
wires are also ground activated and will move the motors as long as they are grounded.
Connecting one side of a push button switch to the momentary up/down wire of the PAC-
3200 and the other side to ground will allow the linear actuators to move as long as the push
button is held. This can be used as an emergency open feature by mounting a push button
switch outside the vehicle and connecting it to the Manual up and/or down wires. See figure
below for wiring push buttons.
