Step 2: Mounting the ATC Keypad

Cut out the template from the last page of this manual.

Tape the template to the dash where you intend to mount the Keypad. (Make

sure it is within 6 feet of the Control Unit.) Check behind panel for wires or

obstruction.

Drill a 3/4" hole for the ATC Keypad cable and two 3/16th-inch holes for the

mounting screws.

Connect the ATC Keypad Cable to the

Keypad. Apply a thin bead of silicone sealant

around the perimeter of the Keypad back. Use

the two enclosed thumb nuts to secure the

Keypad to the dash.

Plug the ATC Keypad Cable into the Control Unit marked “ATC Keypad.” You

can use either of the two ATC Keypad connectors. The extra connector is for an

additional Keypad for an upper station.

Step 3: Connecting the ATC Power Pigtail

Connect the orange wire to a 12 volt positive (+) power source that is

switched “on” with the ignition.

Connect the black wire to ground (-).

Do not plug the ATC Power Pigtail into the Control Unit yet.

Step 4: Connecting the ATC Control Unit to the Trim Tab Manual Control

Remove your existing Manual Control from the dash.

Disconnect the

Red, Green, Yellow and Blue wires from the back of

the Manual Control.

Do not disconnect the Orange power wire.

However, replace the

Orange wire in-line fuse and use the enclosed 1.5 amp fuse.

Trim the wires of the enclosed

6-foot ATC 4-Color Wire Harness to length

and strip the wire ends.

Crimp the enclosed ring terminals to the ATC 4-color Wire Harness.

Connect the wires to the back of the control — Red wire to “R,” Green wire

to “G,” Yellow wire to “Y,” and Blue wire to “B.”

Reinstall the Manual Control.

Plug the Wire Harness into the Control Unit connection marked

Manual Control.”
