Installation and wiring
Installation of a GarageSmart GS100-CR is for controlling and monitoring commercial garage
doors (typically found in businesses or factories), that have a 3-button wall mounted pushbutton
(in which each pushbutton individually opens, closes and stops the garage door).
In existing installations, the GS100-CR will replace your existing 3-button mechanical controller
but it can also be added as a second door controller.
For cabling, regular Cat 5 Ethernet wire (or equivalent) is recommended to use, as this wire is low
cost, readily available and already contains 4 twisted pairs of wire (for

power connections), making installation from the garage door motors
control box to the GarageSmart

device faster and easier.
Depending on the application, additional parts may be required for proper installation.
