SOLAR PANEL(S)
INSTALL THE SOLAR PANEL
1.
Position solar bracket on mounting surface. Mark and drill holes.
2.
Insert two bolts into the track located on the back of the solar
panel(s).
3. Slide bolts in track away from bolt hole and align both bolts.
4.
Secure solar panel(s) to solar bracket using two washered nuts.
5.
Secure solar panel(s) assembly to mounting surface using appropriate
hardware.
WIRE THE SOLAR PANELS
1.
Locate the J15 plug on the control board and unplug it from the
control board (it will not be used).
2.
Set the new 33AH battery in the operator.
3.
Route the battery wires (the longer set of wires) from the J15 plug
(new wire harness) through the back of the electrical box. Connect
the red wire to the positive (+) terminal of the battery. Connect the
black wire to the negative (-) terminal of the battery.
4.
Connect the shorter red wire (+) from the J15 plug (new wire
harness) labeled DC Power to the red wire on the solar panel. Connect
the shorter black (-) wire from the J15 plug (new wire harness)
labeled DC Power to the black wire on the solar panel.
5.
Plug the J15 plug (new wire harness) into the J15 input on the
control board.
NOTE:
You may see a small spark when plugging the
J15 plug into the board.
If necessary, connect additional 12V solar panels in parallel to achieve
the desired wattage (30W maximum).
Proceed to the Dual Gate section (if applicable) or proceed to the
Adjustment section.
