`
`Motor: Permanently Lubricated. thermally protected, heavy duty motor with Automatic reset.
`
`Opener Lights: Turn on and off automatically with 4-1/2 minutes illumination for your safety and convenience.
`
`Sensing System: A buiit—in sensing system detects obstructions during door operation. if in the Downward (close)
`travel mode. the Opener will sense an obstruction and reverse to the full open position. in the Open mode, the Opener
`will stop. in both cases the light will start flashing and continue to flash for 30 seconds. Since all doors are different.
`the Sensing System has independent adjustments for customizing the level of force for the normal opening and
`closing of specific door.
`
`Close Limit'Switch: in winter months it's common for small pieces of ice or packed snow to be trapped under the door.
`Ground swelling may also effect the close limit setting of the Opener. The Close Limit Switch overrides the Sensing
`System under the last one (1) inch of closing travel and prevents the door from reversing if
`it encounters an
`obstruction at this point. When the Light flash at the door close position, it's about time to shovel the snow or re-adjust
`the close limit higher.
`
`Emergency Release: A pull cord allows manual disconnect and operation of door during power failure. Unit will
`automatically reconnect when release is reset (the trolley release lever is snapped back to its original position), power
`is restored and Opener is activated.
`
`Mechanical Door Lock: When‘ properly adjusted. opener locks door in closed position preventing unwanted entry.
`
`Easy Connect Continuous Monitor Entrapment System: System allows quick and easy installation of "Silent Guard"
`Photo eye system while control circuitry monitors these devices continuously for proper operation.
`
`Constant Contact to Close: For utmost safety if "Silent Guard" Photo eye system fails constant contact of mechanical
`push button is necessary to close door. In this mode of operation. a radio transmitter cannot be used to close door.
`
`Momentary Contact to Close: Single touch to Radio Transmitter or Wall Button will allow door to close as long as
`Silent Guard Photo eye system is operational.
`-
`
`Silent Guard Photo eye system: An invisible infra-red beam of light guards the door opening and reverses a downward
`moving door if the beam is broken by a stationary or moving object. if the beam is broken. the opener light will flash for
`30 seconds. Motor control circuitry constantly monitors the Sllent.Guard Photo eye system for proper operation.
`
`Digital Radio Control: Built in allowing over 1.6 million private codes, easily selected without use of tools. Bright
`transmitter LED indicates operation and monitors battery condition.

`
`Note: Since the opener will be secured permanently in this
`position, open and close the door a few times to be sure the door
`does not rub on the rail and that you have allowed the proper
`clearance before proceeding.
`'
`
`Step 4.
`Mount Power Head to Ceiling:
`Since there are many different ceiling designs, all possible
`mounting illustrations can not be ‘shown. Primary concern i§q_§_o
`secure the power head to the ceiling so that operational strerf‘
`ry
`rigidity and safety are achieved. The opener must be sec
`fastened to a structural support of the garage. Although there are
`a series of mounting holes provided on the power unit,
`try to
`secure the mounting hangers to the slots closest to the front.
`Mounting may usually be accomplished by using standard 1-1/4"
`perforated steel angle available at most hardware stores or from
`your local garage door service person. If in doubt as to location
`of, and attachment
`to, ceiling joists, a carpenter should be
`contacted to provide assistance. A cross support will be
`necessary if power head is mounted 8" or more from the ceiling.

`indicate that
`the receiver has
`accepted the code of the transmitter. if the code is not accepted
`the courtesy light will stay on tor 30 seconds, flash 4 times and
`then stay on for 4 1/2 minutes. Up to 20 transmitters (including
`wireless keypad) can be programmed into the receiver in this
`way by repeating the process. Each transmitter has its own
`code set at the factory.
`if you enter more than 20 transmitters
`‘the oldest transmitter will be dropped from memory and the new
`transmitter will be added. To delete all
`transmitters from
`memory hold the receiver set button in for 5 seconds. The
`courtesy light will then flash 7 times, indicating all tra'nsmi' ’.

`Your Garage Door opener is supplied with an Auxiliary Entrapment System. Please Read The Following Carefully.
`
`
`
`important: The Opener will not operate until the Silent Guard Photo eye system is installed, properly
`aligned and connected.
`
`The Beam must not be obstructed in any way. if obstructed the door can only be closed by applying constant
`pressure to the wall button only. The Transmitter cannot be used to close the door.

`Step 12
`installation of Silent Guard Photo eye system
`A.Mark the position of the Silent Guard Photo eye system as
`follows:
`
`Mark a line on the left and right door jamb (as close as
`possible to the door track) 4" and 6" above the floor (See
`Figure 12B). The top mark is the maximum height and the
`bottom the minimum height that the Silent Guard Photo eye
`system may be placed.
`
`B. Mounting the Silent Guard Photo Eye system L Brackets:
`1. Remove the two-L mounting brackets from the carton as
`shown in figure 12B.
`2. Attach L mounting brackets to the lamb with Philips head .
`wood screws supplied as shown in figure 12B 4" to 6"
`above the tioor. Make sure that the brackets are the
`same distance from the floor on both sides of the
`.
`.
`Dooqamb and straight
`
`~
`
`3.
`
`C. Connecting the Silent Guard Photo Eye System
`1. Running wire for connections to power head and photo
`eyes: For your convenience wire connections are none-
`polarity sensitive universal wiring. With the bell wire
`supplied start at the power head connecting one wire to
`terminal number 1
`the other to terminal number 2 as
`marked on the power head as shown in figuie 138 on
`page 13. Then connect the other end of the 2 wires to
`terminais on the back of photo eye.
`2. Using the 3 wire clip brackets suppiied attach one side of
`the clip to the operator rail assembly in equal distances
`between the power head and header bracket.
`insert the bell wire into the other side of the wire clip and
`run the length of the operator rail assembly to the garage
`door header. Using the insulated staples supplied run the
`bell wire across the header and down the wall to one of
`the photo eye mounting brackets. Cut bell wire making
`sure there is enough to reach to the end of the mounting
`bracket.
`4. Strip both ends of the bell wire 1I4" and attach both sets
`of wires to terrni_nais on the back of the photo eye. There
`will be two wires connect to each terminal, one strand
`from each pair of wires.
`'
`insert screws coming. out of the top of photo eye into the
`holes in the mounting bracket and twist the photo eye to
`engage into the bracket as shown in figure 13A on page
`13 through the holes in the bracket and twist.

`
`

`
`
`
`6. Run the remaining bell wire up the wall and across to the
`other photo eye mounting bracket using the supplied
`insulated staples.
`7. Strip 1/4“ of the insulation off the wire and attach to .
`terminals on the photo eye. Repeat photo eye mounti
`as before.
`‘*-
`
`Note: This is the preferred method or wiring. Alternative
`wiring methods are optional. The photo eyes system will
`work properly as long as there are wires to all three
`components in a loop that make up the photo eye safety
`system. Terminals 1 and Zen the back of the power head
`and terminals on the back of both photo eyes.
`
`D. Final Alignment and Test
`1. Connect the power to the opener. The light on the Opener
`will flash for 5 seconds indicating power has been restored
`to the unit. Keep a transmitter with you to control the
`opener. Now that you have power to the photo eyes the
`LED close to the terminals on the eyes will be lit up. if the
`LED doesn't light up check terminal connections and wire.
`2. Go to the receiver side of the photo eyes (eye with LED in
`the front). Aim towards the other eye as close as possible
`and tighten down the screws holding the eye to the
`mounting bracket.
`3. Go to the transmitter side of the photo eyes (other side)
`and aim the eye by twisting slowly and aligning with the
`receiver. When the LED in the receiver comes on you are
`aligned. Tighten down screws on the transmitter.
`4. Place your hand or a‘solid object one foot in front of the
`transmitter or receiver. The red LED should go OFF and
`remain OFF unit the object is removed. NOTE: There mav...
`be a slight delay in returning to normal depending up_
`how long the photo eye system was blocked.
`’
`5. Move to the center of the door. Make sure the red LED
`light
`is On. Move your hand or a solid object slowly
`through the beam. The LED should go Off and On. it not,
`check alignment of the system.
`6. At this time set the down limit Page 14 and reversing
`system adjustment Page 15 the opener.
`it
`is very
`important that the Openers inherent features operate as
`intended before completing the photo eye system tests.
`7. Place an object at least 6" high on the floor at the center of
`the door. Now, attempt to close the ‘door. The door should
`not close from the portable transmitter, but will close with
`constant pressure from the wall button.
`8. Remove the obstruction irom the photo eye system beams
`path. Close the door. Towards the bottom of the doors
`downward travel, Carefully move your hand across the
`path of the beam at the center of the door. The Door
`should stop, pause for approximately 1-1/2 seconds and
`Reopen. Retest, breaking the beam one foot in front of
`both the transmitter and receiver unit while the door is
`moving downward. The door MUST STOP and OPEN
`each tlme.«lf not, realign the photo eye system until proper
`operation is obtained.
`9. Tighten all mounting screws, nuts and bolts.
