GETTING STARTED
If gates seem "sluggish", decrease the number of gates that operate synchronously on
a single Power Bank. If gates aren't receiving sufficient amps, they lose "throw"
power.
If gates keep "re-setting", you may need to ground your ductwork.
9v Power Supply: Power with a GRIT Power Bank
GRIT Power Banks come in two sizes: 9v 20a and 9v 40a.
Generally, one 20a Power Bank provides sufficient power to operate up to four (4) large
Gate Control devices (5'' - 10'') or up to six (6) standard Gate Control devices (2.5'' - 4'')*.
Generally, one 40a Power Bank provides sufficient power to operate up to nine (8) large
Gate Control devices (5'' - 10'') or up to eleven (12) standard Gate Control devices (2.5'' -
4'')*.
The low-voltage wire can be run from a device to the Power Bank in a "home run" fashion,
or, hopped from one Gate Control to the next on its way to the Power Bank in a "daisy
chained" fashion. The Power Bank has two low-voltage jacks, but two sets of wires can be
landed in each, if needed.
*Note: These recommendations could slightly increase or decrease based on the
frequency with which multiple gates on the same Power Bank open in unison and/or how
close to the dust collector the gate is located.
**Troubleshooting:
6v Power Supply: Power with a Trigger/Collector
A Trigger (or Collector) outputs enough power to operate one (1) RFiD device.
A Trigger (or Collector) DOES NOT provide enough amperage to adequately operate a Gate
Control device.
Because all functional associations between GRIT devices are made in the GRIT App,
there are multiple options for supplying power to your devices.
