INSTALLING THE BRACKETS
Be sure power to the opener is disconnected.
Figures 1, 2 and 3 show recommended assembly of
bracket(s) and "C" wrap based on the
wall
installation of
the sensors on each side of the door shown above, or on
the
door tracks
themselves. Figures 4, 5 & 6 show
variations which may fit your installation requirements
better.
Make sure the wraps and brackets are aligned
so the sensors will face each other across the door.
• Connect each assembly to a slotted bracket, using the
hardware shown.
Note alignment of brackets for left
and right sides of the door.
Finger tighten the lock
nuts.
•
Use bracket mounting holes as a template to locate and
drill (2) (4.8mm) diameter pilot holes on both sides of the
door, (100mm). Max height is (100mm).
• Attach bracket assemblies with 1/4"x1-1/2" lag screws as
shown.
• Adjust right and left side bracket assemblies to the same
distance out from mounting surface. Make sure all door
hardware obstructions are cleared. Tighten the nuts
securely.
•
Centre each sensor unit in a "C" wrap with lenses
pointing toward each other across the door.
• Secure sensors with the hardware shown in Figure 6.
Finger tighten the wing nut on the
receiving eye
to allow
for final adjustment. Securely tighten the
sending eye
wing
nut.
•
Run wires from both sensors to the opener as shown on
Page 12. Use insulated staples to secure the wire to the
wall and ceiling.
• Connect both sets of wires to the opener terminals as
shown page 12.
•
Plug in the opener. If your opener has the Multi-Function
Door Control, make sure the Lock Feature is
off
.
Red
indicator lights in both the sending and receiving eyes will
glow
if wiring connections and alignment are correct.
If the indicator lights are
flashing
(and the invisible light
beam path is not obstructed), alignment is required.
• Loosen the receiving eye wing nut to allow slight rotation
of unit. Adjust sensor vertically and/or horizontally until the
red indicator light
glows
.
• When indicator lights are glowing in both units, tighten the
wing nut in the receiving eye unit.
