Features 1. LiftMaster openers work with a smooth-operating soft start /soft stop mechanism. The opener starts more slowly and accelerates immediately thereafter. Shortly before reaching the stop point, the speed is smoothly reduced again. 2 LiftMaster DC Door Openers 800 and 1000 have an automatic closing system. When a person enters or leaves the garage, the garage door closes automatically after the programmed period (4 - 180 sec.) has elapsed.
Installation Check the garage door and the assembly accessories prior to installing the door opener. • Ensure that there is sufficient headroom, there aren’t any worn rollers on the door, the cables / ropes are not chafed, the door is balanced and the rollers have been lubricated. •...

Opener Logic (Design) (contd.) Light Delay Mechanism All LiftMaster DC door openers are fitted with a socket to accommodate a light bulb (max. 40W, 230V, E27) which is regulated via the drive control system. The light is switched on automatically when the opener is activated, and switches itself back off again 2.5 minutes later (factory setting).

LiftMaster “Smart” Receiver LM600A LM800A LM1000A "Smart" Receiver ENTER FIGURE 4 “Smart” Receiver The “Smart” receiver is equipped with a chip encompassing 16/32/64 memory registers (600A/800A/1000A) and a “non-volatile” memory. The remote control is fitted with rolling code technology as standard. The first 15/31/63 memory registers (R1 to R15/31/63) are intended for remote controls (models 94330E, 94333E, 94335E, 4330E, 4333E and 4335E), the memory registers (R16/32/64) can store a keyless entry system (model 9747E).
Remote Control Features The remote controls use a trinary system (3-phase) for transmission purposes. They are equipped with either a crystal or saw base printed circuit board in order to comply with the strict EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) requirements. The remote controls (models 94335E, 94330E and 94333E) are equipped with two 3-volt lithium batteries (CR2032).
Programming the Receiver on to the Remote Control Programming the Receiver on to the Remote Control 1. Press and hold the button on the remote control. 2. Press and release the PROG button (“Smart” button) on the back of the opener. The light on the opener flashes once as confirmation.
Programming the Keyless Entry System (Model 9747E) Special Features The keyless entry systems are compatible with all “Smart” receivers with the same frequency. Personal code: Input of a 4-digit code of your choice (10,000 options). Your personal code can be changed by programming a new code or deleting it.
Multi-Function Door Control Panel The multi-function door control panel is intended to open and close the garage door from inside. Further special features are described here in brief: Lock/Safety Switch Remote operation can be prevented at the push of a button – the receiver then accepts no further signals emitted by the remote control.

Multi-Function Door Control Panel (contd.) Lock feature This is designed to prevent the garage door being operated via a remote control. The garage door can however still be operated via the multi-function door control panel, the outside keylock or keyless entry system. To activate the lock, press and hold the LOCK button (3) for two seconds.
Automatic Setting of the Limits Electronic travel limits regulate the points at which the door will stop when moving up or down. The upper end point of travel is set manually at the push of a button. The lower point is set automatically (step 4).
Manual Setting of the Limits Procedure: 1. To activate: Press and hold the black button (1) on the back of the door opener for approx. 2 seconds and then release it in order to activate the programm. The LED indicator light (3) next to the buttons will start flashing slowly to show that the door opener is in “LEARN”...
Setting the Force The force, as measured at the closing edge of the door, should not exceed 150N (15kg). If the closing force is measured at more than 150N (15kg), a Infrared Sensor needs to be installed. Do not readjust the force to correct any problems with jamming or sticking the door may have.
Automatic Reverse System Test the safety reverse system after 1. each time the limits and force are set 2. each time the garage door is repaired or adjusted (including springs or other bracket elements) 3. each time the garage floor is repaired or modified each time the garage door opener is repaired or adjusted.
The Protector System™ Infrared Sensor THE FORCE, AS MEASURED AT THE CLOSING EDGE OF THE DOOR, SHOULD NOT EXCEED 150N (15KG). IF THE CLOSING FORCE IS MEASURED AT MORE THAN 150N (15KG), A INFRARED SENSOR NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED. IN THE CASE OF THE LM800 AND LM1000 MODELS, THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM MUST BE INSTALLED BEFORE THE AUTOMATIC CLOSING SYSTEM CAN BE OPERATED.
Troubleshooting Infrared Sensor 1. In the event of the receiver LED indicator light not coming on after installation, check the following: • Power supply to the door opener. • Short circuit in the black/white wire. This can occur under the cable terminals or connection terminals.
Remote Control Tester M18E M18E-400 Test Set The remote control tester immediately indicates the transmitter’s relative signal output performance. The actual signal output level can only be determined by comparing it with a transmitter that has been proven to be a “good” one. The tester additionally indicates an approximate signal frequency value but cannot guarantee that the set frequency values fall within the tolerance range of the factory-set values.
Motors and transmissions All DC openers are equipped with a permanently lubricated 24-volt direct current motor. The reference point system for travel evaluation is located in the motor (figure 19). The reference point supports the opener’s logic system in calculating the distance of travel. Figure 20 shows all the parts in their dismantled form including the large motor speed sensor wheel, the two small reference point wheels with the windows that are located above one another and the control unit.
Motor Replacement The motor can be removed as a complete unit as follows: 1. Switch off the power supply. 2. Remove the light cover. 3. Remove the cover (2 screws). 4. Disconnect the plug from the motor. 5. Disconnect the motor lead cables (black and red). 6.
Troubleshooting General troubleshooting When servicing the garage door opener, the most important thing is to identify the cause of the fault. The technician must decide whether the problem has been caused by the: • Installation • Drive mechanism • Remote control •...

Troubleshooting (contd.) 1. The opener doesn’t operate from either the door control panel or the remote control: • Does the opener have electric power? Plug a lamp into the socket. If it doesn’t light up, check the fuse box or the circuit breaker. •...

Troubleshooting (contd.) 7. The noise made by the opener is disturbing for fellow occupants of the house: If the operational noise is a problem because of the proximity of the opener to living quarters, it is advisable to install the Vibration Isolator Kit 89LM. This kit was designed to reduce the “sounding board” effect and is easy to install.

Troubleshooting (contd.) 15. Setting the limits manually: To program the limits manually: 1. Press and hold the black button until the yellow LED indicator light starts flashing slowly and then release. 2. Adjust the position of the door by using the black and orange buttons. The black button moves the door UP (OPEN) and the orange one moves the door DOWN (CLOSE).
