FA-SYNC-2 Synchronous Control Board User Manual

The Firgelli Automation FA-SYNC-2 Synchronous Control Board allows you to move two

actuators in step with the same speed irrespective of load. Unsynchronized actuators can lead

to bending loads which is likely to be disastrous for both the load and the actuator. Common

applications include, but are not limited to: wine cellar trapdoors, RV roof lifts, tonneau covers,

and table lifts.

This board only works with a select few actuators with inbuilt feedback sensors. Actuators must

be of the same type, stroke length, and force. Using different actuators will not work.

Compatible actuators: Bullet 36 Cal, Bullet 50 Cal, Optical Series 200lb, and Optical Series 400lb

Not compatible: Bullet Mini, Bullet 23 Cal, Optical Series 35lb, and all other types of actuator

Connecting the FA-SYNC-2: The leftmost, two-pin, green terminal block plug (labeled A & B) is for user input. Connect either a toggle switch or Firgelli’s 2 Channel Remote Control Board. NOTE: the diagram shows both a toggle switch and a remote control board, this is only to show that both connections are possible, connect only one, not both. The next two-pin, green terminal block plug (labeled VIN & GND) is for a 12V power input. This control board requires 12V at 10 amps.

WARNING: Wire color is subject to change. Confirm color by inspecting sticker on actuator.

Operating the FA-SYNC-2: Using either the toggle switch or Firgelli’s 2 Channel Remote Control Board you can move the actuators in and out. Even if the load is unevenly distributed across the actuators, they will all move in synchronous. The FA-SYNC-2 has the ability to store one “memory” location. To set this memory location, move the actuators to your desired position, then remove the black plastic slide at the top of the control board.
