CONNECTING ACCESSORIES
Make sure the control box power switch is OFF before connecting accessories.
The ACCESSORY terminal block is the connection point for accessories such as push buttons, safety loops, intercoms, etc. The ACCESSORY terminal marked GRN (green) is the common ground for all accessories. GRN is paired with the terminals shown below when connecting accessories to the control board.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to twist exposed wires tightly and insert them into the terminals without loose strands. Tighten set screws against exposed end of wires. A dab of household petroleum jelly in each terminal will help prevent corrosion.
