8. LOSS OF SIGNAL INDICATION

When the battery level on the sensor drops to a certain level, or the sensor is out of the operating range, the receiver will show a “loss of signal” indication. The red LED representing that zone will flash rapidly, i.e. if zone 1 sensor is lost, the zone 1 red LED will flash rapidly.

When the loss of signal indication occurs, move the receiver closer to the corresponding sensor and trigger that sensor. If the red LED stops flashing rapidly, that means the receiver or sensor needs to be relocated. If the “loss of signal” indication persists, replace the battery of that sensor.

Step 2 – Mount the sensor onto your garage door

You can mount the sensor onto your garage door with double-sided foam tape if the sur- face of your garage door is smooth and clean enough to provide a good adhesive surface, such surface can usually be found on a me tal garage door. Please ensure the surface is smooth and clean. Important: The bottom of the sensor should be 1/2 inch above the ground. (Refer to Diagram A)

For w ooden garage doors, it is recommended

 

to mount the sensor with screws onto the

5. OPERATION

When the garage door is open, the sensor will send a signal to the receiver. It will beep and the corresponding zone red LED will flash.

If the sensor is set to zone 1, zone 1 red LED on the receiver will flash, and the receiver will emit a continuous “single beep”, i.e. “beep” pause, “beep”, pause….. etc.

If the sensor is set to zone 4, zone 4 red LED will flash, and the receiver will emit a con-tinuous “4 beeps”, i.e. “beep beep beep beep” pause “beep beep beep beep” pause ……etc.

By the number of beeps emitted by the receiver, user can identify which zone is triggered.

6. BUZZER VOLUME

You can select the buzzer volume by switching the volume switch to “HI” or “LO” position.

The buzzer can be disabled by switching to the “OFF” position.

7. MUTE

When a sensor is triggered for a long period of time, you may stop the buzzer by pressing the mute button. When another signal comes again, you can disable the buzzer for all currently activated sensors by pressing

the mute button. The receive will beep again if it receives another signal.

For instance, if you are working on your lawn with the garage door open, you may want to disable the buzzer for this garage door only. Then you can press the “Mute” button after it starts to sound. If any other sensor is triggered, the receiver will sound again.
