WALL CONTROL INSTALLATION
FOR HELP-1.800.929.3667 OR OVERHEADDOOR.COM
1. Finding the mounting location.
• Pick a convenient location for mounting
wall control.
– Location you choose should be in direct sight
of door.
– It should be at least 5' above floor to prevent
small children from operating door.
– It must be away from any moving parts. (You
should not be able to reach the door while
standing at wall control.)
2. Wiring.
• Run wire from power head to wall control.
• Securely fasten to ceiling using insulated
staples provided.
• Split and strip ends of wire (Fig. 2-6).
• On power head:
– Attach the striped wire to terminal #1 and
white wire to terminal #2 (Fig. 3-1).
• On back of wall control:
– Attach striped wire to terminal “B”, and
white wire to terminal “W.” (Fig. 3-2).
3. Mounting.
• Fasten wall control to wall with 2 screws
(wall button use 58) (console use 41)
(Fig. 3-3).
• Remove protective backing from “entrapment”
warning label (Fig. 3-4).
– Stick label on wall near wall control.
NOTE: Additional wall controls are available from
your dealer. ONLY ONE OF YOUR WALL
CONTROLS MAY BE THE LIGHTED TYPE. If you
have a lighted wall control, all your additional
controls must be unlighted. More than one lighted
wall control per operator will cause a malfunction.
Verify there is no power to the operator before
installing wall control wires.
WARNING
Use of any wall control other than the type
supplied will prevent the light from working and
could cause the door to operate on its own.
Cut or pinched wires can cause the wall control to
stop working. When using the insulated staples,
make sure you only pound them in as far as
needed to hold the wire snugly.
