PRODUCT FEATURES

The 108733 MCB (motor control board) has all the required mounting holes, wire harness connections and functionality required for the models listed above. Note that a radio receiver was built onto the Sprint,

310/510 and 200/250 Model motor control boards. Therefore they require an external receiver (9921R @ 318

MHZ, or compatible) whenever the 108733 MCB is used for replacement in these models.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES

BEFORE BEGINNING REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE:

1. Disconnect all wires, pushbuttons, radios, etc. from the operator and check for shorts and opens in the connections.

2. Check the limit switches for proper position and activation.

3. Check for proper connections or loose connections on the internal wire harnesses.

4. Check for problems with the door, door balance, carrier, track, etc.

6. Measure for proper voltage at the outlet supplying power to the operator.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH:

• THE 108733 MCB IS INTENDED FOR REPLACEMENT

REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE IN

IIA & 2000/2500 OPERATORS

NOTE: THIS SECTION APPLIES TO IIA MODELS AND 2000/2500 MODELS BUILT BEFORE

NOVEMBER 1992. See Section D for units built in November and December, 1992.

1. Disconnect power before removing cover or control board.

2. Carefully remove the old control board from the snap spacers. Note orientation and location of the wire harnesses and control board. Inspect the harness for any loose connections.

3. Install the 108733 MCB and replace the harnesses as shown in the schematic in Figure 1 below. Align the pushbutton harness (brown-black-yellow) over the 3 pins on connector P3 that are farthest away from the eight pin high voltage harness P1.

4. Replace the cover and reapply power. Test for proper operation according to the operating characteristics listed on page 2. Test for proper reversing action according to the instructions outlined in the Operator

Installation Manual.

REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE IN

310, 510 AND 710 OPERATORS

NOTE: On 310/510 Models, the radio receiver was built onto the motor control board. It will be necessary to install a 9921 receiver in addition to the motor control board.

1. Disconnect power before removing cover or control board.

2. Carefully remove the old control board from the snap spacers. Note orientation and location of the wire harnesses and control board. Inspect the harness for any loose connections.

3. Install the 108733 MCB and replace the harnesses as shown in the schematic below.

4. Note: On 310/510 models it will be necessary to re-route the limit harness (blue-red-blue-red-yellow-yellow) to connect to the Limits connector P2. There is enough wire in the harness to pull it through the operator towards the back-panel and route it up to the control board.

5. If a four wire Deluxe Wall Station is attached it must be replaced with an Allstar two wire Super Station or a standard wall button. The four wire Deluxe Wall Station WILL NOT work with the new board. The Allstar

Super Station or a standard wall pushbutton wires into terminals 0 and 1.

6. Replace cover and reapply power. Test for proper operation according to the operating characteristics listed on page 2. Test for proper reversing action according to the instructions outlined in the Operator Installation

Manual.

REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE IN

SPRINT& 200/250 OPERATORS

NOTE: On SPRINT & 200/250 OPERATORS, the radio receiver was built onto the motor control board. It will be necessary to install a 9921 receiver in addition to the motor control board.

NOTE: ON THE SPRINT OPERATOR, it is possible to wire multiple units together to improve radio range. For these applications it will be necessary to remove the connecting wires, replace all of the motor control boards and install 9921 receivers.

1. Disconnect power before removing cover or control board.

2. Carefully remove the old control board from the snap spacers. Note orientation and location of the wire harnesses and control board. Inspect the harness for any loose connections.

3. Install the 108733 MCB and replace the harnesses as shown in the schematic below. Align the pushbutton harness (brown-black-yellow) over the 3 pins on connector P3 that are farthest away from the 8 pin high voltage harness connector P1.

4. IMPORTANT: On Sprint models it will be necessary to reroute the limit harness (blue-red-blue-redyellow-yellow) to make connection to the Limits connector P2. There is enough wire in the harness to pull it through the operator towards the back-panel and route it up to the control board.

IMPORTANT: On Access 200 Models, if the original MCB is installed, it will be necessary to turn the limit

harness (blue-red-blue-red-yellow-yellow) 180 degrees to properly mate with Limits connector P2.

5. Replace cover and reapply power. Test for proper operation according to the operating characteristics listed on page 2. Test for proper reversing action according to the instructions outlined in the Operator

Installation Manual.

REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE IN

MODEL 325B (TYPE III)

NOTE: If original MCB “MC1” is installed, it will be necessary to do some rewiring when installing the

108733 MCB in Model 325B (Type III) operators.

1. Disconnect power before removing cover or control board.

2. Carefully remove the old control board from the snap spacers. Note orientation and location of the wire harnesses and control board. Inspect the harness for any loose connections.

3. Locate the blue wire connecting the motor capacitor to limit switch S3. Next, locate the blue wire connecting S3 to the 8-PIN connector. Cut the two blue wires and connect them with a wire nut so that a

blue wire NOW connects the 8-PIN connector to the motor capacitor. The changes to the wire harness are noted in the schematic below by the dotted lines.

5. NEXT, connect the two loose wires on S3 to the blue wires connecting S1 to the Limit connector P2. It is necessary to cut the wires and use wire nuts to make the connections. When this is complete, S1 and S3 will be wired in parallel. The changes to the wire harness are noted in the schematic below by the dotted lines.

6. MOVE the connection on S3 from the normally closed contact (NC) to the normally open contact (NO).

The changes to the wire harness are noted in the schematic below by the dotted lines.

7. Disable S4B or ensure S4A is indexed first as this becomes the (new) close limit.

8. Install the 108733 MCB and replace the harnesses as shown in the schematic below. Align the pushbutton harness (purple-black-yellow) over the 3 pins on connector P3 farthest away from the 8 pin high voltage connector P1.

9. Replace cover and reapply power. Test for proper operation according to the operating characteristics listed on page 2. Test for proper reversing action according to the instructions outlined in the Operator Installation

Manual.
