The brackets must be connected and fastened so that the sending and receiving eyes face each other as shown in Figure 1.

If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the garage door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to full open position and the opener lights will flash for 5 seconds.

The brackets mustbe securely fastened to a solid surface such as the studs on either side of the door, or add a piece of wood at each location if installing in masonry construction.

The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed. No part of the garage door (or door tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) can interrupt the beam while the door is closing. If it does, use a piece of wood to build out each sensor mounting location to the minimum depth required for light beam clearance.
