Actuator Wiring Help

[SirSteve 10+ year member]

I bought a linear actuator (built-in limit switch) with a rocker switch to control it. I also have a PAC-TR7 to control the amount it opens and closes (from my understanding this TR7 can do this).

I am trying to get it to lift the lid to display my amps (very lightweight). I also want the neons to come on at the same time.

Here is a link to the wiring diagram of the rocker switch:

Here is a link to the PAC-TR7 wiring instructions but it is not clear to me how to use it with rocker switch:

you need to wire the switch into the red wire from what i can tell then use the programming instructions to get it to do what u want it to

but looks to me that isnt the intended use of that piece and your going to have to use limit switches which is over my 2 year basic electronics high school knowledge

I have figured out how the neon part but still unsure how to get the actuator to brake at a certain point...

Anyone?
