Installation: Electrical - Door Open Circuit
3) Install Door Open Circuit - Maximum output is 300mA
NOTE: Both button ‘A’ and ‘B’ can be wired so that either one will open the door.
A) Connect the red power wire directly to the battery. See diagram 11b (18” red wire not supplied)
B) Connect the other end of the power wire to the terminal marked
battery on the circuit breaker.
C) Connect the other terminal of the circuit breaker to the input terminal
S2 (silver) of the toggle switch. See diagram 11a
D) Connect the orange wire to terminal S1 (brass) on the toggle switch.
E) Connect the other end of the orange wire to terminal #87 on the relay.
Mount the relay near the receiver.
F) Connect the pink wire to relay terminal #86.
G) The other end of the pink wire is connected to the receiver channel ‘B’ output. (Channel ‘A’,
violet wire, may also be used to open door.)
H) Connect relay terminal #30, green wire, to the green wire on the actuator for pull. (Reverse wires
to change actuator to push)
I) Connect chassis ground for actuator motor using technique on page 10.
J) Connect ground required to illuminate status bulb in switch to relay terminal #85 on relay. Run
this ground through the proximity switch to disable motor when system is not active, switch is
Off or vehicle is in gear.
4) Test mechanical and high current part of installation
A) Turn power switch On.
B) Unplug the connector from the receiver. Take a long wire (which has been stripped on both ends) and
connect one end to the b12vdc, and touch the other end of wire to relay terminal #86.
The relay should energize and the coil inside the relay should click. The output on terminal #30 is
+12vdc and will activate the actuator. *Ensure the pull of the actuator is straight. If it is not
straight, the actuator may bind and fail.
C) Connect the door latch. Using the long wire that is still attached to the b12vdc, touch the other
end of wire to relay terminal #86.
The relay should energize and the coil inside the relay should click. The output on terminal #30 is
+12vdc and will activate the actuator allowing the door latch to be pulled open. If the door does
not open, check the length of the actuator pull travel. If the required travel length is more than
3/4”, change the installation design to allow a lever or spring to assist. Actuators lose pulling force
if the pull is over extended or more than 3/4”.
WARNING!
If the receiver output wires are installed to the wrong polarity, the output will be damaged. For example:
if the channel 2 pink (+12) output wire is connected to a ground, a ‘dead short’ will occur when the button
is pressed. The output will test ‘dead’ and the trace may be burned or test ‘high (On)’ at all times.
Wiring Inspection
A) Check all wiring connections visually
B) Check the polarity of all wires
C) Tape off or remove all unused wires.

Notes:
A) Auto reset circuit breaker is mounted in the

B) Most applications will use the ‘pull’ direction
of the actuator. To ‘push’, reverse the
green and blue wires.
