INSTALLATION STEP 7
Install the Door Control
Locate door control within sight of door, at a
minimum height of 5 feet (1.52 m) where small
children cannot reach, away from moving parts of
door and door hardware. If installing into drywall, drill
5/32" holes and use the anchors provided. For
pro-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 white 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 6-32xl" 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 motor unit. Use insulated
staples to secure wire in several places. Do not
pierce wire with a staple, creating a short or open
circuit.
4. Insert all wires through the opening on top of
motor unit above the terminal block on the right
side panel (Figure 3).
5. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from each set of
wires. Insert door control wire into quick-connect
terminals by color: white wire to white, white/red
wire to red.
Separate white and white/black wires sufficiently to
connect to the opener quick-connect terminals.
Twist like colored wires together. Insert wires
into quick-connect holes: white to white and
white/black to grey.
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.
6. 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.
