Using the Wall-Mounted Door Control

THE MOTION DETECTING DOOR CONTROL
Press the lighted push button to
open or close the door. Press again
to reverse the door during the
closing cycle or to stop the door
while it's opening.
This door control contains a motion
detector that will automatically turn
on the light when it detects a
person entering the garage. This
feature can be easily turned off for
extended work light use.
Light feature
Press the Light button to turn the opener light on or off. It
will not control the opener lights when the door is in
motion. If you turn it on and then activate the opener, the
light will remain on for 4-1/2 minutes. Press again to turn it
off sooner. The 4-1/2 minute interval can be changed to
1-1/2, 2-1/2, or 3-1/2 minutes as follows: Press and hold
the Lock button until the light blinks (about 10 seconds). A
single blink indicates that the timer is reset to 1-1/2
minutes. Repeat the procedure and the light will blink
twice, resetting the timer to 2-1/2 minutes. Repeat again
for a 3-1/2 minute interval, etc., up to a maximum of four
blinks and 4-1/2 minutes.
When using the opener lights as working lights, we
recommend that you first disable the motion sensor. See
Automatic Light Feature, below.
Automatic Light Feature: The opener light will turn on
automatically when a person enters the garage. When a
person walks in front of the door control, the light will come
on for five minutes, then shut off. This feature works by
detecting body heat and may not work in temperatures
around 100˚F (37.7˚C).
To disable this feature, slide the Detector Switch on the
right side of the door control down (off).
We recommend that you disable the motion sensor when
using the opener lights as working lights. Otherwise, they
will turn off automatically if you are working beyond the
sensors range.
Lock feature
Designed to prevent operation of the door from
hand-held remote controls. However, the door will open
and close from the Door Control, the Outdoor Key Switch
and the Keyless Entry Accessories.
To activate, press and hold the Lock button for 2 seconds.
The push button light will flash as long as the Lock feature
is on.
To turn off, press and hold the Lock button again for
2 seconds. The push button light will stop flashing. The
Lock feature will also turn off whenever the "learn" button
on the motor unit panel is activated.

To Open the Door Manually

To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a falling
garage door:
• If possible, use emergency release handle to disengage
trolley ONLY when garage door is CLOSED. Weak or broken
springs or unbalanced door could result in an open door
falling rapidly and/or unexpectedly.
• NEVER use emergency release handle unless garage
doorway is clear of persons and obstructions.
• NEVER use handle to pull door open or closed. If rope knot
becomes untied, you could fall.
DISCONNECT THE TROLLEY:
The door should be fully
closed if possible. Pull down
on the emergency release
handle (so that the trolley
release arm snaps into a
vertical position) and lift the
door manually.
The lockout feature prevents
the trolley from reconnecting
automatically, and the door
can be raised and lowered
manually as often as necessary.
TO RE-CONNECT THE
TROLLEY:
Pull the emergency release
handle toward the opener at
an angle so that the trolley
release arm is horizontal. The
trolley will reconnect on the
next UP or DOWN operation,
either manually or by using the door
control or remote.
