Mount the Control Box and Receiver

Step 1

Mount the control box using the screws (provided) or another secure mounting method. The control box must be mounted at least 3 feet above the ground to protect it from rain splash, snow, etc., and at least 3 feet from an AC power source to prevent electrical interference.

Step 2

Temporarily mount the receiver at this time. You will need to use the transmitter (page 17) to check the range of the receiver before permanently mounting it. You may have to try different locations before permanently mounting the receiver. The receiver range can vary from 50 to 100 feet depending upon weather, topography, and external interference.

Mount the receiver:

Ensuring a line-of-sight between transmitter and antenna.

At least 3 feet away from AC voltage.

As high as possible for optimum range.

DO NOT mount receiver upside down.

DO NOT mount receiver on metal fence or post (this will decrease signal range). If attaching receiver to metal fence, you should mount receiver on a piece of wood attached to the fence (see illustration).

The receiver cable:

Cable length is 10 ft. (receivers with longer cables are available as special order items; call the GTO Sales Department).

NEVER splice receiver cable!

Run the receiver cable through PVC conduit to protect it from damage.

DO NOT run cable in conduit containing AC wiring.
