Mighty Mule Free Entry/Exit Loop

A Free Entry/Exit Loop is a in ground wire loop that senses a vehicle as it drives over it and opens the gate. It can be placed in the driveway outside the gate to allow FREE Entry to the property and it can be placed in the driveway inside the gate to allow FREE Exit from the property.

Depending on how you want your gate to function you can use just one or all types on the same gate.

Make sure the power switch to the opener is turned OFF before connecting loop wiring to the Mighty Mule 350 terminal blocks.

The LOOP Controller must be placed in a weather proof housing separate from the opener arm.

Use 16 gauge multi-stranded low voltage wire to connect the LOOP Controller to the Mighty Mule 350 control board.

Connect a wire from the V+ terminal on the LOOP Controller to the AUX OUT (+) terminal on the Mighty Mule® 350 control board. Connect a wire Connect a wire from the NO (Normally Open) terminal on the LOOP controller to the EXIT terminal on the Mighty Mule 350 control board. Connect wires from the V– and COM terminals on the LOOP controller to the COMMON terminal on the Mighty Mule 350 control board. The twisted pairs of wires from the ground loop are then connected to the LOOP terminals on the LOOP Controller. See Illustration below.
