Power Mode 3. Only use the batteries as the power source, only use the
solar panel to charge the batteries
If the AC electricity is not available, then you can choose the batteries as the power source and use the solar
panel to charge the batteries. The capacity of the batteries should be at least 12Ah and the power of the solar
panel should be at least 30W in this situation. The gate opener can run for 10 cycles per day without
connecting any other accessories except pushbutton & warning light if the local average sunshine time is
more than 6 hours per day. The power of the solar panel and the capacity of the batteries should be enlarged
if the local average sunshine time is less than 6 hours per day or using one of the accessories (photocell,
external receiver, exit wand and keypad). Please provide us with more details of the local sunshine condition
and accessories needs which we can calculate the configuration of the solar panel and the batteries. Please
connect the batteries & the solar panels & solar controller refer to the following wiring diagram.
Power Mode 4. By AC electricity and back-up batteries, use the AC
electricity and the solar panel to charge the batteries at the same time
If the AC electricity failure happens frequently and lasts for a long time (maybe 4-5 days one time), then you
can charge the batteries with the AC electricity and the solar panel at the same time. The capacity of the
batteries should be at least 7Ah and the power of the solar panel should be at least 20W in this situation. You
can connect the AC electricity following the
“
