MASTER/SLAVE WIRING

Connecting Master and Slave units is fast and easy:
• Master/Slave connections are made through the SLAVE I/O terminal block (TB1), located at

the top right corner of the gate operator controller board (see Figure 15, below).

• Connect the Receive inputs (RECV1, RECV2) on each board to the Transmit inputs (XMIT1,

XMIT2) on the other board.

• To prevent cross-talk between Master/Slave wires and power or input wires, use shielded

cable or run the Master/Slave wires in a separate conduit.

• Use two 18-14 AWG twisted pair wires or a shielded cable containing 2 twisted pair wires for

Master/Slave Interconnection.

• To ensure a reliable communication between Master and Slave units, the maximum allowable

wire length is 3000 feet.

NOTE

Be sure to connect the two units correctly. Improper wiring of the Master/Slave inter-
connection prevents proper operation of the system.
