NOTE:
All power wiring should be on a dedicated circuit, calculated using NEC
guidelines. National and local electrical codes must be reviewed for suitability of wire
installation.
Remove the access panel.
Connect AC power to the operator:
• Connect the green wire to the ground screw in the access panel.
• Connect the black and white wires together with wire nuts.
HEATER WIRING:
NOTE:
If your operator comes with a heater it will have to be wired. The heater may
be wired to the internal receptacle or a separate junction box.
If wiring the heater to the internal receptacle, remove the knockout in the chassis
behind the internal receptacle (refer to illustration). Thread the heater wires through
the knockout and connect the heater wires to the power wires of the operator with
wire nuts (green to green, black to black, and white to white).
Replace the access panel.
Connect the wires from the transformer to the AC PWR/SOLAR terminal located
on the control board.
Plug the transformer into the internal receptacle.
EXTERNAL RECEPTACLE
NOTE:
All power wiring should be on a dedicated circuit, calculated using NEC
guidelines. National and local electrical codes must be reviewed for suitability of wire
installation. The transformer must be located in a dry location that is protected from
weather conditions, such as inside the house or garage.
Run low voltage wire between the transformer and the operator.
Connect the wires from the transformer to the AC PWR/SOLAR terminal located
on the control board.
Plug the transformer into the external receptacle.
