Touch Controller Operation:
This device unlocks by entering a 4 number passcode configured by
the installer or user. The touch controller can operate covers directly
through high voltage power, indirectly via a control board (low
power), or wirelessly through another touch controller. The device
will stop the motor if 1) The operation button is released 2) Motor
current exceeds the set limit or 3) A limit switch is triggered (with
control board).
If motor current is exceeded, the button for the direction operated will turn red and the cover will stop. After the button is
released, the cover can be operated in either direction.
If the limit switch is triggered, movement in that direction will be disabled until the cover is operated in the opposite direction.
With 121 control boards, the button in the tripped limit direction will disappear until the cover is ran in the opposite direction.
With the high voltage limit board the cover will stop, but the touch controller will display as if it’s operating.
