Install the Door Control

Locate the door control within sight of the door at a minimum
height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children cannot reach, and
away from all moving parts of the door and door hardware.

Connect it to the two screw terminals on the back of the door
control by color: white wire to 2 and white/red wire to 1.
2. Remove the cover from the Lighted Door Control. Fasten the
Lighted Door Control Button securely with 6ABx1-1/2" screws.
If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and use the anchors
provided.
3. Run the bell wire up the wall and across the ceiling to the
motor unit. Use insulated staples to secure the wire in several
places. Do not to pierce the wire with a staple, creating a short
or open circuit.
4. Receiver quick-connect terminals and the antenna are located
on the back panel of the motor unit. Position the antenna wire
as shown.
5. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from end of bell wire.
Connect the bell wire to the quick-connect terminals as follows:
white to white and white/red to red.

twist same color wires together. Insert wires into quick-connect
holes: white to white and red/white to red.

warning label to the wall near the door control, and the manual
release/safety reverse label in a prominent location on the
inside of the garage door.
