Mounting of the Control Panel Box
Select a flat and sturdy surface for the mounting of the control panel box.
Care must be taken to ensure that the mounting screws and holes on the control panel
are properly sealed to prevent water seepage into the control box.
Water damage of the boards will void the warranty.
Connection of Power Source (240Vac)
230Vac-16Vac Transformer
Transformer can be relocated up to around 30m from control box using a transformer
kit (in a protective electrical box with mains lead and plug) or positioned inside the
control box if mains power is available at the gate. In either option you MUST install
transformer via a RCD (residue current device) to avoid injury from shock as per local
government electrical requirements. Always switch off mains power when any work
is being carried out on or around gate installation. Always ensure that the transformer
is properly protected from water and dampness.
We recommend a minimum 2.5mm x 2 core TPS cable. Connect mains power supply
to the input cable at the transformer. Output cable 16Vac is connected to the D1
control board.
Connection and Mounting of Backup Battery
Your system is supplied with a 7amp-hour (transformer power) or 12amp-hour battery
and steel mounting brackets with screws. You must install battery in the right bottom
of your control board with the battery terminals at the bottom to avoid shorting of the
terminals onto the battery bracket.
