INSTALLATION STEP 7
Install the Door Control
Locate door control within sight of door at a minimum
height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children cannot
reach, and away from moving parts of door and door
hardware. The installation surface must be smooth and
fl at. If installing into drywall (Figure 1), drill 5/32" holes
and use anchors provided. For pre-wired installations (as
in new home construction), it may be mounted to a single
gang box (Figure 2).
NOTE:
After installation, a green or
amber indicator light behind the cover will indicate proper
connection. If not lit, the Lock and Light features will not
function (reverse wires to correct).
1. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of bell
wire and connect to the two screw terminals on back of
door control by color: white wire to WHT and white/red
wire to the RED (Figure 3).
2. Remove cover by gently prying on a side corner near the
top of the cover with a small fl at head screwdriver
(Figure 4). Fasten with 6ABx1-1/4" self-tapping screws
(drywall installation) or 6-32x1" machine screws (into
gang box) as follows:
• Drill and install bottom screw, allowing 1/8" (3 mm) to
protrude above wall surface.
• Position bottom of door control on screw head and
slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug fi t.
• Install top screw with care to avoid cracking plastic
housing.
Do not overtighten.
• Insert bottom tabs and snap on cover.
NOTE:
The push bar may stick if the door control is not
mounted on a smooth surface. If a click is not heard when
pressing the push bar, loosen the two mounting screws
or relocate the door control to a smoother surface.
3.
(Standard installation only)
Run bell wire up wall and
across ceiling to motor unit. Use insulated staples to
secure wire in several places. Do not pierce wire with a
staple, creating a short or open circuit. If your access
door is near the garage door, you may run this wire with
the Safety Reversing Sensor wires along the top of the
rail. See page 17.
4. Insert all wires through the opening on top of motor unit
above the terminal block on the back panel (Figure 4).
5. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from each set of bell
wires. Connect bell wires to the quick-connect terminals
as follows: white to white and white/red to red; white to
white and white/black to grey (Figure 5).
NOTE:
When connecting multiple door controls to the
opener, twist same color wires together. Insert wires into
quick-connect holes: white to white and red/white to red.
6. Use tacks or staples to permanently attach entrapment
warning label to wall near door control, and manual
release/safety reverse test label in a prominent location
on inside of garage door.
NOTE:
DO NOT connect the power and operate the opener at
this time. The trolley will travel to the full open position but
will not return to the close position until the sensor beam is
connected and properly aligned.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from
electrocution:
• Be sure power is NOT connected BEFORE installing
door control.
• Connect ONLY to 24 VOLT low voltage wires.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a
closing garage door:
• Install door control within sight of garage door, out
of reach of children at a minimum height of 5 feet
(1.52 m), and away from all moving parts of door.
• NEVER permit children to operate or play with door
control push buttons or remote control transmitters.
• Activate door ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is
properly adjusted, and there are no obstructions to
door travel.
• ALWAYS keep garage door in sight until completely
closed. NEVER permit anyone to cross path of
closing garage door.
