NOTE

eTo protect your new investment, your Excelerator ® is equipped with a Timer and Cycle Counter which work together to prevent any chance of heat damage to electrical circuits caused by too many cycles in too short a time. If your Opener suddenly stops responding to the Wall Console- Do Not Unplug the Unit- simply wait

10 minutes for the Timer/Cycle Counter to reset itself and try again.

Unplugging the unit will prevent the Timer/Cycle Counter from resetting.
