Power
The Estate Swing E-SC 1600 comes with 1) 24V transformer. The transformer supplied has 2 screw terminals to
connect to. You may locate the transformer up to
200’
away from the control board using 16 gauge, 2 conductor
stranded direct burial low voltage wire. Do not use solid core wire.
Allow a minimum of
4’
of wire between the transformer and the control board.
Using the provided wire nuts, connect the wire (not provided) from the transformer to the two yellow
wires on the control board marked TRAN. There is no polarity.
Never run 110VAC power directly to the Estate Swing.
This will destroy the Estate Swing control board. Never connect the
power wire with the transformer plugged in. Contact between the
two lead wires, even for a second, will destroy the transformer.
Transformers are only warranted if the internal fuse is not blown. If
the fuse is blown an outside factor (shorting, surge, water, etc) has
caused the transformer not to function.
Plug the transformer into a 110 V AC outlet.
The transformer is not weather proof and must be kept in a covered area. Plug covers are available from your
dealer, contact 1-800-640-GATE for a dealer in your area.
Two 12V DC batteries (Max 5 a/h per battery) may be run in series as backup to the 24V transformer power.
Running two 12V batteries in series creates a 24V system, you cannot run them in parallel (see diagram above)
When you install new batteries - manually open the gate and allow the batteries to charge for 12 hours through
the system before using the gate opener.
