Installation Step 7
Install the Door Control and Connect all Wiring
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
3.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 garage door, you may run this wire with the Safety Reversing Sensor wires along the top of the rail. See page 18.
4.Remove the Control Center door on the right panel of the opener to access the terminal screws.
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.
7.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.
9.Attach 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.
