What is needed to control a linear actuator?

The control and power setup for an actuator depends on the type of motor used and the built in electronics of the actuator. Many DC and AC actuators can operate from a power supply and a Double Pole, Double Throw (DPDT) switch. Some more sophisticated (smart) actuators require wiring into a control scheme, or into a bus communication system.  Please see the manual specific to your actuator for details.
