OVERVIEW OF POWERHEAD CONTROLS
This section describes the programming functions of the
opener. Use the following information to understand the
buttons and LED indicators used to program functions.
Powerhead
: There are 3 programming buttons and 2 LED
lights on the powerhead. Each of the buttons are used to
enter and complete the setup programming. The LED lights
indicate status or a function change by illuminating ON, OFF,
or ON FLASHING.
There are 3 programs:
1. Door Travel Limits.
This program is used to set how far the door travels up
and down.
2. Force Setting Program.
This program controls the force applied during the
closing and opening of the door. They are factory set
and will rarely require adjustment.
3. Remote Programs (default menu)–only required for
added remote control transmitters.
Describes how to program remotes to sync with
additional remote control devices, wall consoles,
keypads and the powerhead.
NOTE
:
The 3 programming buttons are for programming ONLY.
These buttons can NOT be used to operate the opener once the
Required Programming section has been successfully completed.
