APPLICATION
NOTE: The images throughout this manual are for reference and
your product may look different.
The CPS-U is a LiftMaster Monitored Entrapment Protection (LMEP)
device and is compatible with LiftMaster Commercial Door Operators
Models FDC, FDCL, FDO, LGE, Medium Duty Logic, Logic 3, Logic 4,
and Logic 5.0.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE
PHOTOELECTRIC SENSOR
Be sure power to the operator is disconnected.
When properly connected and aligned, the photoelectric sensor
will detect an obstruction in the path of its invisible light beam. If
an obstruction breaks the light beam while the door is closing, the
operator will stop and typically reverse to the full open position.
The sensors must be installed so that the emitter and receiver sensors
face each other across the entrapment zone and the beam is no more
than 6" (15 cm) above the fl oor for a commercial door for entrapment
protection. Either can be installed on the left or right of the entrapment
zone as long as the sun never shines directly into the receiver eye
lens.
The brackets must be securely fastened to a solid surface such as
the wall framing. If installing in masonry construction, add a piece
of wood at each location to avoid drilling extra holes in masonry if
repositioning is necessary.
The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed. No part of the
door (or door tracks, springs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) may
interrupt the beam while the door is closing. If it does, use a piece
of wood to build out each sensor mounting location to the minimum
depth required for light beam clearance.
Additional photoelectric sensors may be added at heights greater than
6" (15 cm) above the fl oor for vehicle/property detection.
Recommended installation for adjacent doors and more than one set of photoelectric sensors. For LOGIC 4 and LOGIC 5 Operators, a
CPS3CARD is required to wire a second set of monitored photoelectric sensors.

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a closing
door:
• Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed per the
operator owner's manual for each entrapment zone.
• Be sure to DISCONNECT POWER to the operator BEFORE
installing the photoelectric sensor.
• The door MUST be in the fully opened or closed position
BEFORE installing the LiftMaster Monitored Entrapment
Protection device.
• Correctly connect and align the photoelectric sensor.
• For entrapment protection, install the photoelectric sensor
BEAM NO HIGHER than 6" (15 cm) above the fl oor.
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals
including lead, which are known to the State of California to
cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm.
