INSTALL THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM
NOTE: This accessory must be used for all
installations where the closing force as measured
on the bottom of the door is over 400 N (40 kgf).
After the opener has been installed and adjusted, the
Protector System™ can be installed. Instructions are
included with this accessory.
The Protector System™ provides an additional
measure of safety against a small child or animal
being trapped under a garage door. It uses an infra-
red beam, which when broken by an obstruction,
causes a closing door to stop and open, preventing an
open door from closing and is strongly
recommended for homeowners with young
children or pets.
ENABLING THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM:
• Connect the obstruction detection beam wiring to the opener and turn ON. (The obstruction detection
beams will automatically enable once they are connected and will now operate in a FAIL SAFE mode.)
DISABLING the obstruction detection beams:
If the obstruction detection beams are installed and needs to be removed the opener will need to be
reprogrammed.
Perform the power ON/OFF sequence as follows
• Remove the obstruction detection beam wires from the opener
• Turn the mains power OFF for 5 seconds
• Turn the power ON for 5 seconds
• Turn the power OFF for 5 seconds
• Turn the power ON and check the opener operates OK without the obstruction detection beams
Whilst Merlin have engineered safety features into your garage door opener, we urge you to
consider fitting obstruction detection beams to your new garage door opener. In many countries
these devices are compulsory to assist in preventing serious injury or property damage. For your
own peace of mind and the safety of others please consider installing this safety device.
