System Once A Month.
To test the Opener Reversing Feature at floor level place a
solid object 5cm thick on the ground so that the center of the
door will come into contact with it. Close the door. If the close
force adjustments are correct, the door will reverse within one
and a half seconds upon contacting the object and travel to
the full open position. The door will emit short beeps
continuously for 25 seconds. If this does not occur, re-check
Limit Adjustments on pg.12 and Force/Sensitivity Adjustments
pg.13.
Note:
Any time any adjustments are made to Limits or Sensitivity, You must retest the opener for the Reversing
Feature at floor level as outlined above.
Testing the Photo eye system
Start the door down and then place an obstacle approximately
20cm high by 30cm wide in the path of the beam. The Red
Pilot Light on the Silent Guard Photo Eye System should go
off. The door should stop for 1-1/2 seconds and reverse to the
full open position. The Opener will emit long beeps
continuously for 20 seconds. If the door is moving up and the
beam is broken, the door will continue up to full open. With
the door fully open and at rest, place the obstacle in the path
of the beam once again. Activate the Wall Push Button, The
Opener will revert to and remain in the Up limit position. Hold
the Wall Push Button to close the door (door will beep while it
travels to the down limit position).
*Auto Close Timer is only available with the Photo Eye
