Install door control within sight of garage door, out of reach of small children at a
minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) above floors, landings, steps or any other adjacent
walking surface, and away from ALL moving parts of door.
For gang box installations it is not necessary to drill holes or install the drywall anchors.
Use the existing holes in the gang box.
NOTE:
Due to power consumption this door control (Model 889LM) cannot be used in
conjunction with another wired door control connected to your garage door opener. If
an additional door control is needed, the wireless door control model 885LM can be
programmed to the door control (Model 889LM).
1. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of the wire and separate the wires.
2. Connect wires to the door control. Make sure the polarity is correct.
• Red wire to the RED terminal.
• White wire to the WHT terminal.
3. Mark the location of the bottom mounting hole and drill a 5/32" (4 mm) hole.
4. Install the bottom screw, allowing 1/8" (3 mm) to protrude from the wall.
5. Position the bottom hole of the door control over the screw and slide down into
place.
6. Lift the push bar up and mark the top hole.
7. Remove the door control from the wall and drill a 5/32" (4 mm) hole for the top
screw.
8. Position the bottom hole of the door control over the screw and slide down into
place. Attach the top screw.
9. Run the white and red/white wire from the door control to the garage door opener.
Attach the wire to the wall and ceiling with the staples (not applicable for gang box
or pre-wired installations). Do not pierce the wire with the staple as this may cause
a short or an open circuit.
10. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from the end of the wire near the garage door
opener. Connect bell wire to the quick-connect terminals on the garage door
opener: white to white and white/red to red.
11. Fasten the warning placard to the wall next to the door control.
NOTE:
DO NOT connect the power and operate the garage door opener at this time. The
door will travel to the fully open position but will not return to the close position until
the safety reversing sensors are connected and properly aligned. See page 13.
