BFT Deimos Ultra Motor Installation and Programming
To remove lid see page 2 of manual, drawing C.
Unscrew the 2 screws at the rear of the motor. Squeeze the bottom of the
plastic housing from each side and lift up. There are 2 tabs at the front that
position the lid to the motor.
Before drilling holes, position the motor beside the gate and sit a piece of
geared rack (teeth) against the gate, position the motor so that teeth on rack
and motor are aligned.
While holding the rack in place push the gate fully open and closed to see if
motor is in correct position. Sometimes gates are warped and you may need to
move the motor in or out to find a happy medium. If the motor is too close, the
bolts and brackets of the rack will catch. If you are too far out the rack will
disengage with the cog on the motor. Mark the holes and or position of the
motor. Use the template to make sure the gate is parallel to the gate.
Drill your 1st 10 mm hole and drop a bolt in. Approximately 50 - 60 mm deep
only (Hint: Drop the bolts in upside down for now in case you make a mistake.)
Check your measurements and drill the 2nd hole and drop in the bolt. Check all
is good then drill your last 2 holes. Discard the template if you wish. If you
are happy, fit your 4 fasteners/ bolts correctly and use a washer and nut and
tighten these fasteners.
Depending on where the rack sits on your gate/wheel heights, you may have to
add extra nuts and washers to lift the motor. Level these spacers and put the

motor on. Fit the last of the nuts and tighten when you have double checked
the position against the rack and gate.
When fitting the rack the 1st is the hardest. First unlock and pull out the little
door to put in manual (Hint: Lay out the rack beside the gate to make sure you
have enough length and at least 2 fixing points on each piece of rack. The rack
needs to protrude approximately 300 mm past the motor on each end).
Hold the rack level and fit a screw either end. Move gate back and forward. The
rack teeth should NOT be tight on motor teeth or too high that they are not
touching. Adjust the rack so that there is approximately 2 mm between the rack
and motor cog. Move gate along until the rack bracket is close to the motor, but
you can still install a screw. Slide the rack up or down to adjust it. The rack has
a bit of flexibility in it. Just do every 2nd bracket for now. You can start either
end. Do whatever is easier for you. Once the first rack is finished, slide the rack
past the motor and sit the next rack in place (these racks interlock). It is a good
idea to clamp another length of rack under the first so just a couple of inches is
sitting out. This will hold the next rack in the correct position so you don't get
the clickety clack like an old rail road train. Move the gate till you can screw the
last bracket of this rack to the gate. Then remove the temporary rack and screw
the 2nd rack same as the 1st. Continue this until all rack is fitted. Push the gate
back and forward to check the tolerances. Adjust as requires and if you are
happy, fit the rest of the screws.
If you are adding a push button or keypad or intercom. Connect the 2 trigger
wires to terminals 60 and 61. There must be NO POWER on these wires. Doing
so will blow up the control board and VOID WARRANTY.
Assemble the limits before clipping to rack and fit your limit switches to the
rack as per page 2 in manual, drawing F. (Hint: There is an R on one magnet and
an L on the other. When you are inside, looking at the gate. The R goes to the
right hand side and the L on the left. Don't tighten yet, you may need to adjust
them a bit).
After you are happy with the installation you can tighten the screws and screw
the bracket to the rack.
Hint: There are little black brackets that u can't find a home for. If you are
using standard 20 mm wide rack, these are unused. Some brands of rack are 10
- 15 mm wide and these are clipped inside the limit brackets as packing.
