ELECTRONIC CONTROLS MANUAL
Overview
The Girard Link System brings to RV user new control technology that was designed to
eliminate unnecessary wiring of controls and utilize wireless RF linking to save space, reduce
weight and facilitate installation. Some examples of this are:
1.
The function of insuring firm closure of the awning is achieved using a Magnetic Sensor
with RF remote control rather than a wired in Current Limiting box.
2.
The wired Anemometer is replaced with an RF remote unit that will retract up to 20
awnings without any wiring and without the need of special units designed to share a
single anemometer with more than two awnings.
3.
The automatic retraction of awnings does not require a connection between the ignition
circuits and the awnings’ motor control but is also achieved with no wiring using a single
additional RF link.
The system consists of several modules that perform specific functions and communicate with
each other by transmitting or receiving radio (RF) signals.
SYSTEM MOTORS
Two types of motors are provided with the G-Link System
1.
Standard Motors with manual override
2.
Receiver (Radio) motors
The Standard Motors require a motor control module to operate with a Remote Control, while
the Receivers Motors have a built in Receiver and do not require a motor control module.
The variety of motors is used in Girard Systems awnings and we give here a list of the most
commonly used units.
