Installation Step 7

Install the Door Control and Connect all Wiring

Install Door Control

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.

1.

Strip 1/4" of insulation from one end of the bell wire

 

and connect it to the two screw terminals on the back

 

of the door control by color: white to 2 and white/red

 

to 1 (see Figure 1).

2.

Fasten the Lighted Door Control Button securely with

 

6ABx1-1/2" screws. The Multi-Function Door Control

 

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, creating a short. If your access door is near the

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 Step 9 on page 18.

the opener to access the terminal screws.

Connect Door Control and Sensor Wiring

5.

Thread all wires through the opening at the base of the

 

drive shaft cover (see Figure 2).

6.

Insert the remaining wire through the hole in the power

 

unit and strip 1/4" of insulation from each set of wires.

Connect the door control wire to the opener terminal

 

screws: white to 2 and white/red to 1. (See Figure 3.)

8.

Separate the sensor white and white/black wires

 

sufficiently to connect to the opener terminal screws:

 

white to 2 and white/black to 3.
