Typical Gate Wiring Connection:
•
Reference Leads:
o
RED
=> Input Voltage (+)
o
SHIELD
=> Ground/Common (–)
o
BLACK
=> Relay’s Common
o
BLUE
=> Relay’s Normally Open
o
YELLOW => Remote WAND [Range adjustment potentiometer (POT)]
•
Terminology Definitions:
o
‘FREE EXIT/ENTRY’ is defined as input terminals (2) that upon activation (momentarily connected together) will
cause the gate to run in the open direction only. Note: In most gate openers, one of the two terminals is the ‘COM-
MON/GND’.
•
Power supply connection:
o
DC power supply: (11-36 Vdc)
ß
Connect the positive (+) lead of the power supply to the RED wire.
ß
Connect the negative (-) lead of the power supply to the SHIELD wire.
o
AC power supply: (8-26 Vac)
ß
Connect the power supply to the RED & SHIELD wires. There is no polarity for AC power supply.
•
Relay output connection:
o
Connect the BLUE wire from the WAND to the ‘FREE EXIT/ENTRY’ of the gate opener.
o
Connect the BLACK wire from the WAND to the ‘COMMON/GND’ of the gate opener.
•
Range (POT) board connection:
o
Connect the YELLOW wire from the WAND to the YELLOW wire from the Range Adjustment Board.
o
Connect the BLACK wire from the Range Adjustment Board to a negative input voltage.
o
Turn the POT clockwise to increase range.
o
Turn the POT counter-clockwise to decrease range.
