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.
