INSTALLATION STEP 6
Install the Door Control
Locate door control within sight of door at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children cannot reach, and away from moving parts of door and door hardware. The installation surface must be smooth and flat. If installing into drywall (Figure 1), drill 5/32" holes and use anchors provided. For
1.Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of bell wire and connect to the two screw terminals on back of door control by color: white wire to WHT and white/red wire to the RED (Figure 3).
2.Remove cover by gently prying on a side corner near the top of the cover with a small flat head screwdriver (Figure 4). Fasten with
•Drill and install bottom screw, allowing 1/8" (3 mm) to protrude above wall surface.
•Position bottom of door control on screw head and slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug fit.
•Install top screw with care to avoid cracking plastic housing. Do not overtighten.
•Insert bottom tabs and snap on cover.
NOTE: The push bar may stick if the door control is not mounted on a smooth surface. If a click is not heard when pressing the push bar, loosen the two mounting screws or relocate the door control to a smoother surface.
3.(Standard installation only) Run bell wire up wall and across ceiling to motor unit. Use insulated staples to secure wire in several places. Do not pierce wire with a staple, creating a short or open circuit. If your access door is near the garage door, you may run this wire with the Safety Reversing Sensor wires along the top of the rail. See page 17.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from electrocution:
•Be sure power is not connected BEFORE installing door control.
•Connect ONLY to 24 VOLT low voltage wires.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a closing garage door:
•Install door control within sight of garage door, out of reach of children at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m), and away from all moving parts of door.
•NEVER permit children to operate or play with door control push buttons or remote control transmitters.
•Activate door ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is properly adjusted, and there are no obstructions to door travel.
•ALWAYS keep garage door in sight until completely closed. NEVER permit anyone to cross path of closing garage door.
