Wired Installation of the Keypad

NOTE: If you also plan to power the keypad with the gate opener’s power source, run two pairs

of wires as described below. One pair to hard-wire the keypad and the other pair to connect the

keypad to the gate opener’s battery.

Step 1: Turn the gate opener’s power switch OFF. Use 16 gauge, stranded, direct burial low
voltage wire (part no. RB509) to connect the keypad to the opener control board. Run wire
through PVC pipe from the ground to keypad and from the ground to the opener control board
to protect the wire from lawn mowers or grazing animals.

Determine how the wire will enter the keypad (i.e. from the back through a hole drilled in the
mounting post or running the wire on the surface of the post). Remove the small rectangular
knock-out on the back of the keypad cover and pull the wire into the cover. Then mount the
cover to the post using the screws provided.

Installing Batteries

NOTE: 3 AA batteries are required to power the keypad unless an external

power supply such as the gate openers power source is used. Low voltage

wire from the external power source must be connected to the POWER IN

terminals on the keypad control board, if batteries are not installed.

Step 1: Remove the two screws from the bottom of the keypad and sepa-

rate the keypad from its housing.

Step 2: Install 3 AA batteries (not included).
