NEVER USE TRANSFORMER AND SOLAR PANEL(S) AT THE SAME TIME!

It will damage the control board!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT LOW VOLTAGE WIRE:

  •  The only wire acceptable for use with GTO products is 16 gauge stranded, low voltage, PVC sheathed 

wire. This gauge enables the solar panel to provide an adequate charge through the control board to 
the battery at distances up to 250'.

  • 

DO NOT use telephone wire or solid wire.

Step 1
Make sure the power switch is OFF.

Step 2
Strip 3/16" off the ends of the low voltage wire and twist tightly. Attach these ends to the 14VAC OR SOLAR 
terminals located on the terminal block. Be certain not to let the exposed wires touch each other!

Step 3
Insert one solar panel wire into a 14VAC 
OR SOLAR terminal.  Insert the other 
solar panel wire into the remaining 14VAC 
OR SOLAR terminal.  The wires can be 
connected to the 14VAC OR SOLAR 
terminals regardless of color/polarity.

Step 4
Tighten set screws against exposed end of wires.

NOTE: For multiple panels, wire the panels in parallel  

as shown in this diagram.
