INSTALLATION STEP 7
Install the Door Control
Locate door control within sight of door at a minimum
height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children cannot reach,
and away from moving parts of door and door hardware. If
installing into drywall (Figure 1), drill 5/32" holes and use
anchors provided. For pre-wired installations (as in new
home construction), it may be mounted to a single gang
box (Figure 2).
1. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of bell
wire and connect to the two screw terminals on back of
door control by color: white wire to 2 and white/red wire
to the 1.
2. Remove cover by gently prying at slot in top of the
cover with a small flat head screwdriver. Fasten with
6ABx1-1/4" self-tapping screws (drywall installation) or
6-32x1" machine screws (into gang box) as follows:
• Install bottom screw, allowing 1/8" (3 mm) to protrude
above wall surface.
• Position bottom of door control on screw head and
slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug fit.
• Drill and install top screw with care to avoid cracking
plastic housing. Do not overtighten.
• Insert top tabs and snap on cover.
3. (Standard installation only) Run bell wire up wall and
across ceiling to opener. Use insulated staples to
secure wire in several places. Do not pierce wire with a
staple, creating a short or open circuit. If your access
door is near the garage door, you may run this wire with
the Safety Reversing Sensor wires along the top of the
rail. See page 17.
4. Separate the white and red/white wires. Strip 7/16"
(11 mm) of insulation from the end of the bell wires.
Twist like colored wires together. Connect the bell wire
from door control and safety reversing sensors to the
quick-connect terminals: red/white wire to the red
terminal, white wires to the white terminal and white/
black wires to grey terminal.
NOTE: When connecting multiple door controls to the
opener, twist same color wires together. Insert wires
into quick-connect holes: white to white and red/white to
red.
5. Use tacks or staples to permanently attach entrapment
warning label to wall near door control, and manual
release/safety reverse test label in a prominent location
on inside of garage door.
NOTE: DO NOT connect the power and operate the
opener at this time. The trolley will travel to the full open
position but will not return to the close position until the
sensor beam is connected and properly aligned. See Step
12 on Page 22.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from
electrocution:
• Be sure power is not connected BEFORE installing door
control.
• Connect ONLY to 24 VOLT low voltage wires.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a closing
garage door:
• Install door control within sight of garage door, out of reach
of children at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.52 m), and away
from all moving parts of door.
• NEVER permit children to operate or play with door control
push buttons or remote control transmitters.
• Activate door ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is properly
adjusted, and there are no obstructions to door travel.
• ALWAYS keep garage door in sight until completely closed.
NEVER permit anyone to cross path of closing garage door.
