Installation Step 6

Install the Door Control

•Strip 1/4" of insulation from one end of the bell wire; connect the wire to the two screw terminals on the back of the door control by color: white to 2 and white/red to 1.

•Locate the door control within sight of the door at a minimum height of 5 feet where small children cannot reach, and away from all moving parts of the door and door hardware. Fasten the Lighted Door Control Button securely with 6ABx1-1/2" screws. The Multi-Function Door Control Panel uses 6ABx1" screws. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and use the anchors provided.

•Run the bell wire up the wall and across the ceiling to the opener. Use insulated staples to secure the wire in several places. Be careful not to pierce the wire with a staple, thereby resulting in a short.

•Receiver terminals screws and the antenna are located on the back panel of the opener. Position the antenna wire as shown.

•Then connect the bell wire to the opener terminal screws: white to 2 and white/red to 1.

•Remember to affix the User Safety Instruction label to the wall near the Door Control, and the Maintenance Instruction label in a prominent location on the inside of the garage door.

Page 32 explains how to operate the opener using the Door Controls and the Lock and Light features available on the Multi-Function Door Control Panel.

If the label adhesive will not adhere to your garage wall surface (or becomes loose with time) use tacks to secure the label alongside the control button.

WARNING

Children operating or playing with a garage door opener can injure themselves or others. The garage door could close and cause serious injury or death.

Install the Door Control (or any additional push buttons) out of the reach of children and away from all moving parts of the door and door hardware, but where the garage door is visible. Do not allow children to operate the push button(s) or the remote control transmitter(s).

A moving garage door could injure someone under it. Activate the opener only when the door is properly adjusted, you can see it clearly, and there are no obstructions to door travel.

Do NOT connect the power and operate the opener at this time. The trolley will travel to the full open position but will not return to the close position until the sensor beam is connected and properly aligned.

See Safety Reversing Sensor instructions beginning on page 21.
