Install your DKS Smart Gate Controller
The DKS Smart Gate Controller's signal is impeded by metal. Make sure that the place where you are installing it has a strong
Wi-Fi signal (see previous page "Preparation Before Installation").
The operator cover can also diminish the signal. If the controller is being installed INSIDE the operator, test it with the operator
cover on and see if signal strength is acceptable.
NOTE: In the app, you can check wireless signal strength, "Check Device Network"
DoorKing's recommendation is 67dbm or below. The cell phone must be connected to same
Wi-Fi as the DKS Smart Gate Controller.
If the controller is installed OUTSIDE the operator, make sure to use a waterproof plastic box
(not provided) to protect the controller.
After you are satisfied with the Wi-Fi signal strength in the location where you are installing your
DKS Smart Gate Controller, find your specific DoorKing operator on the next 2 pages to show
how to wire the controller to it.

DoorKing advises to use the built-in relay on every DKS operator circuit board to control this function instead of the magnetic
sensor in this kit. If NOT using the built-in relay on the DKS operator circuit board, the magnetic sensor can be used instead.
Connect the magnetic sensor plug to the BLUE wires plug connecter inside DKS smart gate controller.
IMPORTANT
The magnetic sensor needs to be 1/4" or less to function. Shims may need to be used to allow the sensors to
remain close enough to activate.
