Power
1. The Estate Swing Heavy Duty Carriage Door Opener comes with 1) 24V transformer.
The transformer supplied has 2 screw terminals to connect to. You may locate the
transformer up to
100’ away from the control board using 16 Gauge, 2 Conductor
Stranded Direct Burial Wire below
.
2. Insert the two wires from the transformer into the two VAC terminals on the control
board (CN1). The wires are not polarized, there is no positive or negative.
Do not
splice the power cable wire.
Never run 110VAC power directly to the Estate Swing. This will destroy the Es-
tate Swing control board.
Never connect the power wire with the transformer plugged in. Contact between the
two lead wires, even for a second, will destroy the transformer.
3. Plug the
transformer
into a 110 V AC outlet.
4. The transformer is not weather proof and must be
kept in a covered area.
Plug covers are available from
your dealer, contact 1-800-640-GATE for a dealer in
your area.
5. Two 12V DC batteries may be run in series as
backup to the 24V transformer power. Running two
12V batteries (Max 5 a/h per battery) in series creates a
24V system,
you cannot run them in parallel
(see dia-
gram to the left)
6. The power light located below the +24V and –24V
output terminals will be on if the power is connected
properly. If the light is off then power through the trans-
former is not functioning properly and either the unit
has no power or is on battery backup.
The light stays off
during battery backup.
