one full cycle, from full open to full close and then, full close to full

Contact Reverse Test

NOTE: The limit and Force settings MUST BE COMPLETED before
performing the Contact Reverse Test.
12. With the garage door open, lay a 2" x 4" board at on
the oor at the center of the door opening.
13. Close the garage door using the Open/Close button on
the wall control.
or
When the door contacts the board, it should stop and reverse
direction within 2 seconds to the fully open position. Red LED
lights on the powerhead will begin to ash with the reversal of
the door. Remove the 2" x 4" board after a successful contact
reversal test. The next cycle will clear the ashing red LEDs.

Contact Reverse Adjustment

If the door stops before contacting the board or if it does not
reverse direction to fully open after contact with the board, it
may be due to an improperly set DOWN limit. Verify settings by:
1. Repeat the "Down Travel Limit" section (page 6) to make
certain the door is closing tight against the oor.
2. Repeat the "Force Control" section on the left to set force
limits.
3. Repeat the "Contact Reverse Test" above.
Repeat this process as needed until the door passes the Contact
Reverse Test. For further help, refer to the "Maintenance and
Adjustment" section/Regular Maintenance. Pages 14-18.
