Install The Lcd Door Control - Craftsman CMXEOCG781 Owner's Manual

INSTALLATION STEP 11

INSTALL THE LCD DOOR CONTROL

INTRODUCTION
NOTE: Older door controls and third party products are not compatible.
Install the door control within sight of the door at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5
m) above floors, landings, steps or any other adjacent walking surface where
small children cannot reach, and away from the moving parts of the door.
NOTE: For gang box installations it is not necessary to drill holes or install the
drywall anchors. Use the existing holes in the gang box.
WIRE THE DOOR CONTROL (FIGURE 1)
1. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of the wire and separate
the wires.
2. Connect one wire to each of the two screws on the back of the door
control. The wires can be connected to either screw.
Pre-wired installations: Choose any two wires to connect, but make note
of which wires are used so that the correct wires are connected to the
garage door opener in a later step.
MOUNT THE DOOR CONTROL (FIGURE 2)
1. Mark the location of the bottom mounting hole and drill a 5/32" hole.
2. Install the bottom screw, allowing 1/8" (3 mm) to protrude from the wall.
3. Position the bottom hole of the door control over the screw and slide
down into place.
4. Lift the push bar and mark the top hole.
5. Remove the door control from the wall and drill a 5/32" hole for the top
screw.
6. Position the bottom hole of the door control over the screw and slide
down into place. Attach the top screw.
WIRE THE DOOR CONTROL TO THE GARAGE DOOR OPENER (FIGURE 3)
Pre-wired installations: When wiring the door control to the garage door opener
make sure you use the same wires that are connected to the door control.
1. Run the white and red/white wire from the door control to the garage door
opener. Attach the wire to the wall and ceiling with the staples (not
applicable for gang box or pre-wired installations). Do not pierce the wire
with the staple as this may cause a short or an open circuit.
2. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from the other end of the wire near the
garage door opener.
3. Connect the wire to the red and white terminals on the garage door
opener.
