initially set. To combat this you must disenage the
motor and add an extra inch to the programmed
limit stop. See below steps 7-9.
Make sure dip switch 3 is turned on at the motor
carriage before proceeding and plug in the unit.
Note:
It is helpful to keep the motor carriage cover
off during autoset.
1. Use the remote that was packed with the
opener (main box) as it is pre-programmed to
the opener for your convenience
Note:
Only the 1st button is used on the remote for
programming purposes.
2. Plug the motor into your power outlet
• The status light on the control board should
blink rapidly
3. Press 1st button on the remote until the motor
carriage starts to move
• Release quickly
• The motor carriage will move backward into the
red limit stop and then move forwards to the
close position
4.
To set the close limit you must program the
position for the opener to learn with your
remote
Note:
The motors are very strong and will try to
pull through the resistance while it is in learning
mode and will possibly result in bending/breaking
hardware.
• Push 1st button on the remote to stop the door
right before the sliding hardware hits the end
stop
Caution!
We do not recommend using yourself or
any other persons to stop the door at the closing
limit as this may result in injury.
5. Hold down the 1st button on the remote to
activate the hop function
• The opener will make a small jump forward
• Release quickly
6.
Repeat until you reach the desired stop location
7.
Pull the emergency release cord to disengage
the motor
8. Activate the hop function
four
more times, the
motor will not move
•
Each hop equals a 1/4” jump and you need a
total of an inch
9.
Pull emergency cord to engage the motor
10.
Press the 1st button to activate the opener to
return the open limit
• The opener will continue the autoset (learn
mode) on its own
11. The motor carriage will go back and forth
across the rail between the limits so it can learn
the push force required to move your doors
• During learn mode the LED lights will be
flashing
12. As soon as the programming is complete the
light will remain solid and is then ready for use
Warning!
It is very important to not interrupt
or stop the opener prematurely during its
programming.
Note:
The number of repetitions will vary based
on your door. The heavier the doors are the more
passes are required for the opener.
Alternative Program Options
• An alternate solution for helping set the close
limit is to use something like 2x4 wood planks
or other form of sturdy brace to stop the door at
the right location. This will absorb the force and
take the pressure off the hardware. This may
not work for all install applications
• If the disengaging of the motor and using the
hop function does not work for the close limit
then press the reset button for 10 seconds to
delete closing limit. Turn dip 3 OFF and then
dip 4 ON instead. Go through autoset program
again and skip the steps 7-9 (this will not allow
operator to adjust the closing limit an inch
short).
Note:
this will cause the operator to run
slowly
Troubleshooting
1. Opener will not operate
• If the motor does not operate or power up at all
make sure the chain is not loose and touching
the rail as this will cause a short in the system
• Photo eyes are commonly incorrectly wired into
the orange terminal, the LED lights on the photo
eyes will light up but the opener will not operate
• Do not grease/lubricate the chain or rail. This
will gunk up the system and will disrupt the flow
