SPECIAL CONTROL WIRING
If your operator was shipped from the factory with
non-standard control wiring or with optional
accessories that require addition instructions, refer to
the wiring diagram(s) indicated in the special control
wiring data box. When a replacement wiring diagram
is present, wiring diagrams in this manual will not

IMPORTANT NOTE: If your wiring diagram is
missing, or you are unsure of the wiring type for
your operator, contact the customer service
department @ 1-800-528-2806.
Standard C2 Wiring
Standard operators are shipped from the factory with
jumper set for C2 wiring, which requires constant
pressure on button to close the door.
Additional Access Control Equipment
Locate any additional access control equipment as desired (but so that the door will be in clear sight of the person
operating the equipment), and connect to the terminal block in the electrical enclosure as shown on the FIELD
WIRING CONNECTIONS diagram. Any control with a normally (N.O.) isolated output contact may be connected
in parallel with the OPEN button. More than one device may be connected in this manner. Use 16 gauge wire or
larger for all controls. DO NOT USE THE CONTROL CIRCUIT TRANSFORMER (24VAC) IN THE OPERATOR
TO POWER ANY ACCESS CONTROL EQUIPMENT.
External Interlock Switch
The operator has a terminal connection for an external interlock switch. This switch must be a normally closed
(N.C.) two-wire device with a contact rating of at least 3 amps @ 24VAC. When such a switch is connected as
shown on the FIELD WIRING CONNECTIONS diagram, the control circuit will be disabled when the switch is
actuated, thereby preventing electrical operation of the door from the control devices.
