1.CODE CONNECTORS

In order for the sensor to communicate with the receiver properly, the sensor’s code must match with the receiver’s code. Code connectors 1 to 6 can be found by opening the top cover of the sensor and the back cover of the receiver. User is required to set these code connectors randomly and the code settings on the sensor and receiver must be the same. Each position of the code connector can be set to “+”, “-” or “0” position. Refer to the diagram below to set the code connectors properly. If the connector is placed on the top and middle posts, that column is set on “ + ”. If the connector is placed on the middle and bottom posts, that column is set on “ - ”. If the connector is removed completely, (not placed on any posts), it is set to “ 0 ”. (see diagram for examples of how to set a column to the three different positions).

Open the top cover

Clip

Note: A connector can be removed with the clip, as shown.

Code Connectors on Sensor

Note: If you experience interference from a nearby system, which could accidentally trigger your system, please change the code settings on the sensor and receiver. The code setting on the sensor and receiver should still match after changing the code setting.

2. ZONE CONNECTORS

Each receiver can work with up to 4 different sensors (to represent 4 different zones on the receiver). There are 2 connectors that determine the zone number 1, 2, 3 and 4. These 2 connectors can be found by opening the top plastic cover, near the code connectors with marking “A” & “B”. Please follow table 1 to set the zone.

“+” in the table means the connec tor for that position should be placed on the posts.

“-“ in the table means the connector for that position should be removed.

3. POWER UP THE GARAGE DOOR MONITORTM SENSOR

After setting up all the connectors, the sensor is ready to be powered up.

Remove the top cover on the sensor and insert the 3V lithium battery to the sensor as shown in the diagram.

After insert the battery to the sensor, the receiver will respond to the transmitted signal depending on the orientation of the sensor.

“+” positive side up

Insert 3V lithium battery to the sensor

If the sensor is face up in the vertical position, the green LED on the receiver will glow steadily, indicating the sensor is in a closed position.

If the sensor is face down in the horizontal position, one of the red LED on the receiver will flash, and the buzzer on the receiver unit will also emit beeping to indicate a door is open.

You can change the orientation of the sensor and

you should see the change in response of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

receiver. If the sensor and receiver are working

 

 

 

 

 

 

properly in close proximity, you can now begin to

 

 

 

 

 

 

install the sensor onto your garage door.

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTE: It is normal to hear a rattle from the

4. INSTALLATION

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unplug the power cord of your garage door opener

 

WARNING

before installation to ensure power is not connected.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Attached the sensor to the garage door with double-sided foam tape if the surface of your garage door is smooth and clean enough to provide a good adhesive surface, such surface can usually be found on a metal garage door. Please ensure the surface is smooth and clean.

For wooden garage doors, it is recommended to use the mounting plate and screws as well.
