HySecurity MX5914, KIT, RETROFIT, SLIDE535
The HySecurity MX5914 is a retrofit kit for select HySecurity / Nice HySecurity SlideSmart 535 slide gate operator applications. It is commonly listed as Kit, Retrofit, Slide535 and is used where the current HySecurity retrofit instructions or parts documentation call for MX5914.
This is a multi-component retrofit kit, not a single loose replacement part. Retrofit kits may include controller-related components, adapter hardware, target sensing components, programming media, sprocket hardware, fasteners, threadlocker, and installation instructions depending on the current HySecurity package configuration. Always verify the current kit contents before ordering.
What This Retrofit Kit Does
The MX5914 retrofit kit is used to update or adapt select older slide gate operator configurations for SlideSmart 535-related controller and motor-drive service. In some listings, the kit is described as a CNX motor drive module retrofit kit for older slide gate operators and as a replacement path for MX4285.
When installed correctly, the kit helps provide the proper control, drive-board mounting, target magnet sensing, sprocket interface, and setup materials required for the retrofit. Because controller conversion work affects gate movement, limits, safety inputs, motor control, and programming, this kit should be installed only where the operator and retrofit instructions confirm compatibility.
Compatible With
This retrofit kit may be used with the following applications where the current HySecurity documentation confirms MX5914:
- Select HySecurity SlideSmart 535 / Slide535 slide gate operator retrofit applications
- Older slide gate operator configurations where HySecurity specifies the MX5914 Slide535 retrofit kit
- CNX-to-535 retrofit applications where the current retrofit instructions list MX5914
- Applications where the existing controller, motor drive module, target magnet setup, chain sprocket, adapter plate, and wiring layout match the retrofit instructions
- Repairs or conversions where the original part is marked, listed, or cross-referenced as MX5914
- Applications where MX5914 is being used as the approved replacement path for the older MX4285 motor drive module, where confirmed
Important: Do not assume MX5914 fits every SlideSmart, SlideSmart DC, SlideDriver, SlideDriver II, or non-HySecurity slide operator. Retrofit work must be verified by operator model, serial number, controller generation, wiring, motor drive configuration, and current HySecurity retrofit instructions.

Important Compatibility Warning
The MX5914 retrofit kit should be ordered only when the operator model, serial number, existing controller platform, motor drive configuration, wiring layout, and current HySecurity retrofit instructions confirm that MX5914 is the correct kit.
Retrofit kits can change the controller, drive board, target sensing, sprocket, setup procedure, or wiring layout. Do not install individual components from this kit into an unrelated operator or controller platform. If the operator has prior field modifications, missing labels, damaged wiring, or an unknown controller history, verify the full system before ordering.
