Are you ready for the Eclipse? The MC’s Eclipse operating system is a user friendly menu driven system
that uses the 1-touch button to control, setup and run automatic gates, doors and barriers. It uses a large
4-line LCD screen showing live reading of the motor performance and status of all inputs and outputs.
The MC controller is not just the next generation but the industry game changer. We wanted to create a
controller that is simple to use and does just about any feature required in the gate and door industry.
The MC is not just the next generation but the “Next Transformation” in the gate and door industry
creating an Eclipse over previously developed motor controllers.
This new intelligent motor controller is the best match for your automatic gate or door motors.
The intelligent controller was built from the ground up, based on customer feedback and using todays
technology. With its rich functions, consumer friendly price and with the focus during development
being ease of use and setup makes this controller the ultimate board to control your motors.
Elsema’s easy options to add remote controls or any type of photoelectric beams makes for a very user
friendly approach, while avoiding the lockdown approach to accessories.
The control cards are available with an IP66 rated plastic enclosure for outdoor installations, backup
batteries with charger or the card only. The MC is also suitable for solar gates with its low standby
current of 12mA.

Electrical Wiring - Supply, Motors, Battery and Inputs
Always switch off power before doing any wiring.
Make sure that all the wiring is completed and that the motor is connected to the control
card. Recommended wire strip length should be 12mm for all connections to
the plug in terminal blocks.
The diagram below shows the supply, motors, battery backup and inputs available and the factory default
setting for each input.
If you are using mechanical stops move to the Setup i-Learning Steps. Skip Limit Switch section.
