Compatibility and Installation Notes
KING GATES STARG8 should be selected according to the motor voltage and automation type, because STARG8 AC BOX is for 230V AC motors while STARG8 24 versions are for 24V DC motors. The installer must confirm the gate motor model, wiring terminals, transformer rating, safety photocells, limit switches, remote receiver setup, electric lock output, and accessory load before installation. Professional installation is strongly recommended because incorrect wiring or wrong dip-switch settings can damage the board or create unsafe gate movement. For technical setup details, review the official King Gates STARG8 AC manual.
