POWER WIRING
This operator can be wired for either 120 Vac or 240 Vac or a solar
panel (not provided). Follow the directions according to your application.
For dual gate applications, power will have to be connected to each
operator. Main power supply and control wiring MUST be run in
separate conduits.
NOTE: If using an external receiver use shielded wire for the connections and
mount the receiver away from the operator to avoid interference with the operator.
240 VAC ONLY
If using the 240 Vac option a heater cannot be used. The accessory outlet is disabled
and cannot be used with the 240 Vac option.
1
Remove the outlet housing from the electrical box by removing the
screws (2).
2
Pull the outlet housing out and locate the power wiring connector on the
EMI board.
3
Unplug the power wiring connector from the 120 Vac socket (factory default
location) and plug it into the 240 Vac socket.
4
Replace the outlet housing by securing with the screws. The operator is now set
for 240 Vac operation.
