INSTALLATION MANUAL – RDO
11. Safety Obstruction Force Adjustment
Dual Safety Obstruction Force Adjustment modes ensure that the
RDO
can be optimised to suit virtually any garage
door
•
Adaptive Mode
– constantly monitors incremental drive force value changes that occur due to seasonal conditions
and / or garage door aging. Adaptive Mode compensates for these variables by automatically adjusting Safety
Obstruction Force values during every complete cycle, resulting in enhanced safety and minimised chances of
garage door ghosting

.
•
Manual Mode
– features conventional one time Safety Obstruction Force value
adjustment and is more suited for use on badly-worn or improperly-balanced garage
doors. (Refer Section 11.2. for setup details)
11.1.
Adaptive (A) Mode
Enabling
•
If Adaptive Mode is already enabled then skip to the next section titled “Functionality”
•
To enable Adaptive Mode carry out the following procedure;
•
Switch off power at power supply
•
Remove the Courtesy Lamp and Control Box Covers to expose the Control Board
•
Select Dipswitch No.1 to the “ON” position
•
Replace the Control Box and Lamp Covers
•
Switch power on at power supply

Functionality
•
In order to learn the required run time and drive force values, the
RDO II
will be required to complete five
(manually activated) uninterrupted open and close cycles (commencing from the Close Limit Point)
•
During the course of the cycles, the LIGHT will quick flash once every two seconds and the operating parameters
will be learned in the following order;
•
Open Stroke 1 – Alignment stroke
•
Close Stroke 1 – Learn run time between Open Limit Point and Close Limit Point
(during Close Cycle 1 the
RDO II
will not Slow Stop)
•
Open Stroke 2 – Learn run time between Close Limit Point and Open Limit Point
(during Open Cycle 1 the
RDO II
will not Slow Stop)
•
Close Stroke 2 – Learn Drive Force Values between Open Limit Point and Close Limit Point
•
Open Stroke 3 – Learn Drive Force Values between Close Limit Point and Open Limit Point
•
Once Learning has been successfully completed, the LED Indicator will commence to slow flash
Important note: During initial power-up learning, the Safety Obstruction Force values of the RDO II default to
a maximum setting. Encountering a solid obstruction during the course of the initial learning cycles may result
in garage door damage. It is recommended that initial learning cycles be carefully supervised in order to prevent
the possibility of the garage door hitting an obstruction causing personal and/or property damage.
Safety Obstruction Force Adjustment
•
Open the Courtesy Lamp Cover to expose the adjustment controls
•
Rotate the (green) “Offset” Adjustment Pin in a clockwise direction to increase Safety Obstruction Offset Value
and in an anti-clockwise direction to decrease the value
•
The Safety Obstruction Offset Value may be adjusted within a range of 30N (3kg) to 100N (10kg)
•
The selected value remains identical for both open and close direction travel
•
Refer to
‘Testing Safety Obstruction Force’
for testing
1. Ghosting is defined as a Safety Stop or Safety Reverse without the garage door actually encountering an obstruction.
