An external Alarm and/or external Warning Light may be connected to the gate operator. Devices connected to these
terminals will be active during shutdown applications and while the gate is in motion both open and closed if desired.

ONNECTIONS
:
For applications where AC Power drops out on a regular basis, an optional Solar Panel may be installed to help keep the
batteries charged.
NOTE:
Solar and battery backup power are for limited operations and not intended for high traffic applications. Fully charged
batteries can operate a gate from 5 - 100 times depending on the application. Heavy gates, or gates with poor hardware are
going to operate fewer times than light gates, with good hardware.
Alarm & Warning Inputs:
1. Allows an external Alarm to be active during shutdown
applications and also during gate motion if desired.
2. Allows external Warning Light to be active during gate
motion.
3. These outputs are NO relay contacts. Power must be
applied externally.
Connecting External Alarm & Warning Light:
1. Connect Warning Light to the external power supply and
Warning Com and N.C. outputs following the schematic
on the left.
2.
Connect External Alarm to the external power supply
and Alarm Com and N.C. outputs following the
schematic on the left.
3. Set DIP Switch 1 to OFF for the Alarm to only sound in
shutdown applications.
4. Set DIP Switch 1 to ON for the Alarm to beep while gate
is moving and sound the alarm in shutdown situations.
Solar Panel Inputs:
1. Allows an optional Solar Panel to be connected to the
system for added charging.
2. Output is limited to sunlight, gate application, battery
size, and Solar Panel output. To increase capacity,
increase the size of each Solar Panel
Connecting Solar Panels:
1. Use one 20 Watt, 24VDC Solar Panel
OR
two 20 Watt,
12VDC Solar Panels together in series.
2. Connect the Solar Panel positive to SOLAR +
3. Connect the Solar Panel negative to SOLAR -
Batteries should be tested regularly for proper battery backup operation.
Batteries should be replaced each year or as needed.
