Install Wireless Infrared Safety Sensor | Wayne-Dalton series 3000

Step 11: Install Wireless Infrared Safety Sensors Wall Mounting Bracket (If Included)

Select a mounting position 5 inches above the floor to center line of wall bracket. The EMITTER and TRANSPONDER units must be mounted inside the door opening to minimize any interference by the sun; however, the sensors must be mounted against the door track. The brackets may be temporarily mounted to the wall (or jamb) with a #8 X1/2” screw provided and should be in contact with the door track. Leave this screw in place after installation is completed to prevent accidental rotation of beam sensor. It is very important that both wall brackets be mounted at the same height for proper alignment.

Using the 1/4” x 3/4” lag screw provided, attach the wall mounting bracket to the wall. In some installations it may be necessary to attach wooden spacers to the wall to achieve the required clearance. Expansion bolts (not supplied) may be required to attach brackets to walls constructed of materials other than wood or gypsum.

Step 12: Install Wireless Infrared Safety Sensor Bracket

Attach the sensor bracket to the wall bracket using the two #8 x 1-1/2” screws supplied (make sure that the curved hooks protruding from the bracket are positioned over and in firm contact with the door track).

Note: This opener is equipped with state-of-the-art wire- less infrared safety sensors which are activated by door movement. It is extremely important to position and mount the sensor brackets in firm contact with the door track so that the sensors are immediately activated by the door movement.

Step 13: Install Wireless Infrared Safety Sensor

Open hinged cover on infrared safety sensors and remove battery protective paper strip.

Observe proper battery polarity, as illustrated, in battery compartment.

Identify the TRANSPONDER (green LED) and mount this unit on the right side (from inside the garage looking to the outside) of the garage door and the EMITTER (red LED) on the left side. This same right/left mounting procedure must be fol- lowed on two and three door installations.

Mount the infrared safety sensors to the sensor bracket keeping the soft washer between the sensor and sen- sor bracket and then place the conical washer, lock washer and hex nut on the extender bolt, as illustrated.

Keeping the sensors pointing in towards door and aimed at each other, tighten nut until there is enough friction to hold in place. Do not fully tighten until the final alignment has been completed.
