I needed to see how you set the close limit and then cycled the gate open and closed 4 times per the instructions, because it doesn't say to program the remote yet and I'm having problems with this step of setup.

Let me see if I still have that info

@Knottsqmw Thanks for the reply, I ended up resetting the control board and starting over with the close limit setting and save, then imediatly programing the remote push button using the S3 button. Then the control remote worked to operate and cycle the gate.

Best video iv seen on this thank you did you use onther part on the end of the wire so it wont hang ?

@Knottsqmw Жыл бұрын

Are you referring to the wire coming from the house to the control box, or the wire I put on the gate?

Would you know where the serial number is located on the arm? I have the lighter weight unit but would think the serial number would be located in the same area. I can't find the serial# on mine for warranty purposes. Thanks.

why does it need a battery if you plug in directly to an electrical outlet???

@Knottsqmw Жыл бұрын

I thought the same thing, but it has to have a 12 volt supply for the computer board to power on.

@magssaddler2626 Жыл бұрын

It also keeps the battery charged so that in the event of a power outage you can still open and close the gate

How did you get that feature to slow down when it opens and closes

@Knottsqmw Жыл бұрын

It actually automatically does it off of the parameters you set in box.

I need your help. I did all the installation but mine will not work. can you help me .

@Knottsqmw 11 ай бұрын

Sure I commented on your other post. You must have a battery hooked up. It can be a small 12v battery or a large one , are you hookup up to a AC power source 120v with the transformer?

@trevorroop 3 ай бұрын

Whats the 2 extra holes for in the arm side?

@Knottsqmw 3 ай бұрын

I believe for different angles depending on how your gate is set up

I don't have the battery hook on . is this why?

You have to have a battery on it .

Hello, just rang that bell.. Nice work here. So the unit also needs a battery correct? The transformer is to charge and maintain the battery and the supplied butt connectors on the wire go to a non supplied 12 volt battery, is that right??? thanks again !

@Knottsqmw Жыл бұрын

Yes I believe so . Been a while since I did it I would have to watch video again to remember, but it’s something like that lol

Tractor supply told me doesn’t need electric hooked up - just battery? Gate to far from house

@Knottsqmw Жыл бұрын

That is correct. In my case, you can’t just have electric hooked up . You have to have a 12 volt supply . I thought I could just wire it into my house directly, but ended up still needing a battery supply to make it function

@MrTaylorfenoglio 10 ай бұрын

Correct but you need a way to charge the battery. So either plugged into an outlet or a solar charger. It has an on board solar controller so all you would need is the solar panel sold separately. I'm pretty sure you can buy a cheap one from harbor freight vs paying $120 for one.
