In order to test the light kit in the day light, place a piece of black electrician’s tape over the photocell lens then 
wait for 2 minutes. Activate the gate operator by pressing the gate operator’s transmitter button or another activa-
tion device.

The lights should come on when the gate is activated and go off at the time delay you have set.

If any of these actions did not occur, please call GTO Technical Service at 1-800-543-4283 for additional informa-
tion.

When everything is working correctly, replace all connection covers, remove the electrician’s tape and your done. 

Testing the Light Kit:

Features and Technical Specifi cations:

•   12 Vdc systems only.
•   Maximum load: 20 Watts / 2-10 Watt bulbs.
•   Built-in overload protection with re-set able poly fuse. This feature prevents the load 

(bulbs) from drawing more than 3 Amps from the battery.

•   Built-in battery reversal protection with re-setable poly fuse.
•   Low battery condition monitor: If the motor voltage is below 9V the lights will not acti-

vate, conserving battery power for the operator.

•   Potentiometer adjustable time delay from 0 - 120 seconds.
•   Day light photocell (sensor) disables light during day light.
