Setting Up the Relay
First, you need to connect the relay to power:
- Open the Sigma Gate panel.
- Connect 12v on gate to "+" positive on receiver.
- Connect Ground on the gate to "-" negative on the receiver.
- This will power the receiver and light the Status indicator.
Next, attach the relay in the following configuration:
Relay 1 (Auto-Close)
- Connect Common on receiver to Ground on gate.
- Connect N/O on receiver to Front Open on gate.
- This enables auto close functionality.
Relay 2 (Latched)
- Connect Common on receiver to Ground on gate.
- Connect N/O on receiver to Cleaning on gate.
- This enables the gate to be locked in the open position.
