1. Mount actuator for required application (either 
clockwise  or counterclockwise  rotation to 
open the damper or valve). 
2. Check damper position and make sure that 24 
VDC/VAC is present at the appropriate connections. 
(See Fig. 11.)
3. Apply control signal to the appropriate connections 
to move the damper to the opposite position. The 
actuator should drive the damper or valve.
4. If actuator does not run, verify that the actuator is 
properly installed for either clockwise  or coun-
terclockwise  rotation.
5. If actuator is correctly installed and still does not 
run, replace the actuator.

2. Connect Sylk-enabled (S-BUS) controller to termi-
nals 3 and 4.
3. Connect power to terminals 1 and 2.
4. Select the proper address on dial to correspond with 
the address you wish to use (as seen in the table next

Security instructions
Physical security control, such as a locked cabinet, 
equipment room or any other placement of the device that 
restricts physical access to it, is recommended to prevent 
device tampering and unauthorized manipulation of the 
parameters accessible via NFC connection and SYLK 
connection. Connection to the device via NFC is secured 
using a PIN. Each device is preset with a factory default 
PIN. The factory default PIN is 2586 and is the same for all 
devices of this product family. It is recommended that the 
default PIN is changed to a user unique PIN. The user 
unique PIN can be canceled using the factory default PIN 
at any time.
