INTRODUCTION

Now that your Overhead Door® garage door opener is installed, you 

will want to program the opener so that the door open and closes 

properly and all remote devices operated correctly. The following steps 

guide you through setting your opener so it functions properly for you.

The following information will take you through programming your 

opener’s functional settings for use.

OVERVIEW OF POWERHEAD CONTROLS

This section describes the programming functions on the powerhead 

of the opener. Use the following information to familiarize yourself with 

the buttons, LED indicators and products used to program functions.

Powerhead: There are 3 programming buttons and 2 LED lights on 

the powerhead. Each of the buttons is used to enter and complete 

the setup programming. The LED lights indicate status or a function 

change by illuminating ON, OFF, or ON FLASHING in one of three  

different colors: blue, red or purple.

There are 3 programs:  

1.  Door Travel Limits. 

  – This program is used to set how far your door travels up  

    and down. 

2.  Remote Programs (default menu)–only required for added  

  remote control transmitters. 

  –These show you how to program your remotes to sync with  

    additional remote control devices, wall consoles,  

    keypads and the powerhead. 

3. Force Setting Program. 

  – This program controls the force applied in during the closing  

  and opening of your door. They are factory set and will rarely    

  requires adjustment only under certain circumstances.

NOTE:

 The 3 programming buttons are for programming ONLY. These 

buttons should NOT be used to operate the opener once the Required 

Programming section has been successfully completed.
