D: CONTROL AND AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT
INSTALLATION OF A STANDARD WALL
PUSH BUTTON
A standard wall push button is packaged with your
opener. Do not use a door bell button with light. The
operating parameters for the standard wall push button
are outlined on page 15. The standard wall button is
included with your opener.
STEP 1:
After determining a suitable location,
usually near the access door and at least 5 feet above
the floor to prevent use by children, use the standard
wall push button as a guide to mark the mounting
holes. Drill holes for drywall anchors or screws.
NOTE: Do not mount directly to masonry walls. Use
backer board.
STEP 2:
A length of 2-conductor, #22 gauge wire
(or heavier) is required to connect the standard wall
push button to the garage door opener. Strip
approximately 2" of jacket and 1/2" of insulation from
one end of the wire. Carefully connect one wire each
to the terminals on the button. Carefully tuck any
loose wires into the case and mount the push button
using appropriate screws.
STEP 3:
Run the wire from the standard wall
pushbutton to the operator, supporting it at 18"
intervals with suitable staples. Leave a sufficient
length to make the necessary connections to the
opener terminal strip.
IMPROPER DOOR OPERATION
COULD CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH.
WARNING LABEL MUST BE
MOUNTED ON WALL NEAR THE
PUSHBUTTON. ALL WARNINGS
AND INSTRUCTIONS ON THE
LABEL SHOULD BE STRICTLY
ADHERED TO.
WARNING: SOME LOCAL BUILDING CODES
DO NOT ALLOW SURFACE WIRING. BE
SAFE AND CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL
BUILDING INSPECTOR FIRST.
WARNING
A CHILD OPERATING THE DOOR
CONTROLS RISKS INJURY — OR
DEATH — TO HIMSELF AND OTHERS.
DO NOT ALLOW CHILDREN TO
OPERATE ANY DOOR CONTROLS.
MOUNT THE PUSHBUTTON AT LEAST
5 FT FROM THE FLOOR, OUT OF
REACH OF CHILDREN.
STEP 4:
Ensure power is OFF to the opener or
disconnect the power from the opener. Strip
approximately 4" of jacket from the end of the wire
and 1/2" insulation from each wire. Connect to
terminals 0 and 1 as shown in the illustration below.
Support the wire near the opener with wire ties.
Step 5:
Install the Control Button Warning Label
supplied with your opener near the standard wall push
button (see illustration below).
