PRE-INSTALLATION SYSTEM TEST
1. The sensor and receiver are pre-matched (programmed) at the
factory. Test the system by flipping the sensor over while it is a
few feet away from the receiver. The receiver will show a
green light for closed when the sensor is face up in the vertical
position with the
round end
of the case pointing down
(Figure 1).
The red light will flash when the sensor is face
down in the horizontal position
(Figure 2).
2. If the green or the red receiver lights do not come on, or do
not react as described, see the Troubleshooting or Learning
section of these instructions.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY IN THE GARAGE

1. Place the screw driver blade
on
the tab at
the end of the case and gently press down
and in toward the case.
2. Insert the the lithium battery into the battery
clip with the + (positive) side face up.
3. Push the case back together tightly by
inserting the top hooks into the back cover,
then snap shut the bottom of the case.

It is normal to hear a rattle from the tilt
switch in the sensor when tilted or rotated to
another position.
INDOOR RECEIVER SETUP
1. Plug the AC adapter into any
standard 110 volt AC electrical
wall outlet and the small plug
into the back of the indoor

The antenna should be straight
and not touching metal.

NOTE:
Because radio control devices are inherently susceptible
to RF interference, this product should NOT be used as a
stand-alone security device. This product is considered a
monitoring and notification device ONLY, and as such, should not
be used as a substitute for a dedicated home security system.
To ensure that your Garage Door Monitor continues to operate
properly, the following checks should be performed on a
monthly basis:
• Check that the sensor is mounted properly on the garage door
(see
Mounting the Sensor
section of this manual.)
• Ensure the 3 volt lithium battery is installed properly.
• Check to see that the receiver system is plugged into a wall
outlet and the jack is properly connected to the back of the
receiver. Make sure the antenna is straight and not in contact
with any metal objects.
• Check that the receiver is properly recognizing sensor
signals (see
Troubleshooting
section of this manual.)
