4. If the door has been stopped in a partially open
position, it will close.
5. If obstructed while closing, the door will reverse.

invisible beam is broken. If fully open, the door will
not close when the beam is broken. Sensor has no
effect in the opening cycle.
If the sensor is not installed or not aligned correctly, you
can't close the door from any remote control transmitter.
You can close the door with the Door Control, the
Outside Keylock, or Keyless Entry, however, if you
activate them until down travel is complete. If you
release them too soon, the door will reverse.

safety reversing sensor causes the door to reverse.
The Opener Lights will turn on under the following
conditions: When the opener is initially plugged in;
