INSTALL SAFETY BEAM SENSOR
Important Information: The safety beam sensor can detect obstacles in the path of its
invisible beam. When the beam is obstructed while the door is closing, the door will stop
immediately, reverse to the fully open position and the opener lights will flash. It is important
to ensure the invisible infrared is unobstructed by any part of the garage door, tracks, other
hardware or objects near the garage door.
Identify the Transmitter and
the Receiver
The unit with the red LED is the
transmitting sensor. The unit with
the blue LED is the receiving sensor.
Avoid sunlight shining directly into the
receiving sensor.
WARNING
• Be sure power is not connected to the garage door opener while installing the safety beam
sensor.
• The safety beam sensor must be installed and aligned properly.
• This safety device must not be disabled.
• The safety infrared sensor must not be installed higher than 6” (15 cm) above the garage
floor.
