CONTROL AND AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT
INSTALLATION OF A STANDARD WALL PUSH BUTTON OR DELUXE WALL STATION CONTROL
A standard wall push button is included
in your hardware package, an optional
Deluxe Wall Station may be purchased
from your installing dealer. The operat-
ing parameters for the standard wall
push button and the Deluxe Wall Station
are outlined on pages that follow
("Operating Instructions") to see what
mode of operation is right for you. All-
star recommends the Deluxe Wall Sta-
tion installation, as it will provide full
control over the garage door operator and its functions at all times. You may install one Deluxe Wall Station and one or more stan-
dard push buttons to a Challenger AC9000 Series operator following the cautions and instructions outlined below.
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 or Deluxe Wall Station 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 control button to the garage door operator.
Strip approximately 2" of the wire jacket from one end and 1/2" of insulation from each wire. Carefully connect one wire to each of
the two terminals. Carefully tuck the loose wires into the case and mount the unit using appropriate screws.
STEP 3:
Run the wire from the control button to the operator, supporting it at 18" intervals with suitable staples. Leave a
sufficient length to make the necessary connections to the operator terminal strip.
WARNING:
SOME LOCAL BUILDING CODES DO NOT ALLOW
SURFACE WIRING.
BUILDING INSPECTOR FIRST.
STEP 4:
Ensure power is OFF to the operator or disconnect the power from the
operator. Strip approximately 4" of jacket from the end of the wire and 1/2"
insulation from each wire.
