PREPARING THE GATE SYSTEM CONTROLLER
The gate system control board provides one convenient place to make all of your system connections and to change any
settings that you desire to personalize how your automatic gate opener system operates at your home or property. This main
board (shown below) is located inside of the control box of your system and will be referred to in detail through the next few
sections.
Because this control box may be mounted within reach of children or potential vandals, we recommend a padlock to
securely lock this box in the closed position to prevent tampering
.
NOTE: BEFORE PROCEEDING MAKE SURE THE
ON/OFF SWITCH ON BOTTOM OF CONTROL BOX IS IN THE OFF POSITION.
STEP 10.
Check the system DIP switch settings and verify that they are in the correct positions
as shown.

CONNECTING OPERATOR ARM TO CONTROL BOX
STEP 9.
Insert the operator cable into the control box.
A. Route the operator cable through the same strain relief as
the battery harness cable and into the control box.
B. Connect the operator wires to the control board. Find the
1st operator screw terminal on control board and insert the
red, black, green and white wires (left to right) into the
matching color coded terminals and tighten each of the
screws so that the wires do not come loose and fall out.
*You will connect the second operator wires later into the 2nd
operator screw terminal.
C. Make sure wires are not inserted too far into the terminal
slots and that the wire insulation is not interfering with
contact to the system control board.
D. Tighten strain relief nuts on the control box to close the
seals around the wires.
