My roller controller died last week suddenly, it seems to be the power model is broken. I’ve been wanting to let apex control it for a while since the original controller sucks. Turn out it’s pretty straight forward job.

Open the back panel of the controller box, unhook the motor with the controller, and connect it to a 12V power adapter.

Now I can use apex coding to make sure it doesn’t run for more than 20 seconds.
