6.4.3 Resetting the Door Limit Positions
Limit positions can be deleted by:
a. Switching off power to the unit.
b. Pressing and holding the RED STOP / SET button and
switching power on to the unit will clear the settings
memory
(the LIMIT LED will flash).
6.4.4 Setting Partial Open Position
After completing the limit setup procedure the Parital
Open position is automatically set to a position which
is approximately in the middle of the door travel. The
position can be manually set by following the below
process:

position by using a transmitter or control panel.
b. Press the MODE button twice to highlight the LIMIT
LED.

6.4.5 Checking Partial Open Position
When activated by a transmitter button which is coded
as PART mode, the opener drives the door to the preset
position from either above or below. If a PART Mode
button is pressed while the door is moving, the door will
stop. If a PART Mode button is pressed when the door is
in the PART position, then the door will close.

a. Move the door to the half way position.
b. Engage the opener by pulling down on the manual release
string until a click sounds.
c. Switch power on to the opener.
d. Press the BLUE CLOSE button to close the door:
(i) If the motor drives the door in the wrong direction press
the GREEN OPEN and BLUE CLOSE buttons together to
reverse the motor direction.
WARNING! In setting the close limit position, do
not force the door into the floor with excessive
force, as this can interfere with the ease of
operation of the manual release mechanism.
6.4.2 Set the Limit Positions
The Limit Positions can vary due to site conditions, such as
uneven ground. When setting the Close limits, ensure the
position is when the door makes first contact with the ground.
Alternatively for the Open limits the position should be at the
height of the garage opening.
a. Press and hold the BLUE CLOSE button to close the door.
b. When the door is at the desired close position, press the
RED STOP/ SET button to record the close limit position.
The display will change and green open LED will start to
flash.
c. Press and hold the GREEN OPEN button to open the door.
When the door is at the desired open position, release
the OPEN button. If the door overshoots, press the CLOSE
button to move the door in the CLOSE direction.
WARNING! Once the next step is performed, the door
will automatically close and open to calculate force
settings. Keep persons and objects clear of the door.
d. Press the RED STOP/SET button to store the open limit. The
door will now automatically close and open to calculate the
safety obstruction settings.
