13. Auto-Close & Auxiliary
Safety Beams
A Safety Beam Kit may be fitted to this opener. When this option is fitted,
the operation of this device is such that if an object (i.e car, child etc)
blocks the Infra-Red beam, then the garage door opener will not close
the door automatically. If the Safety Beam is fitted but not operating
correctly, then the door once opened automatically, will not close
automatically.
Auto Close Option
Auto-Close mode is a function that automatically closes the door a
preset time after the Safety Beams recognise that a vehicle has left
the garage. The Auto-Close timer only starts after the Safety Beam's
path is broken. If the safety beam path is not broken, the door will
remain open until the path is broken. If the opener incurs a physical
obstruction (i.e. not from the Safety Beams) while closing the door,
it will re-open and not Auto-Close until the Safety Beam's path is
broken again.
To enable the Auto-Close function unscrew the back cover from
the opener to gain access to the control board and remove the
AUTO-CLS (ACLS) shunt next to the programmer input and place
shunt over both inputs. When this option is selected the garage door
opener will attempt to close the door automatically 30 seconds after
opening as long as safety beams are installed. Refit the back cover.
Auxiliary Output
The auxiliary output can be used to control alarm or another
garage door opener. A valid transmission from the pre-
coded transmitter will cause the auxiliary output to pulse for
approximately 1 (one) second. The maximum DC voltage must
not exceed 35 volts DC. Maximum current must not exceed
80 ma.
