Install The Door Control - Chamberlain 1356M Owner's Manual

INSTALLATION STEP 6

Install the Door Control

Locate the door control within sight of the door at a
minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small children
cannot reach, and away from all moving parts of the door
and door hardware.
1. Strip 1/4" (6 mm) of insulation from one end of the bell
wire. Connect it to the two screw terminals on the back
of the door control by color: white wire to 2 and white/
red wire to 1.
2. Fasten the Lighted Door Control Button securely with
6ABx1-1/2" screws. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32"
holes and use the anchors provided.
3. Run the bell wire up the wall and across the ceiling to
the opener. Use insulated staples to secure the wire
in several places. Do not pierce wire with a staple,
creating a short or open circuit.
4. Receiver terminal screws and the antenna are located
on the back panel of the opener. Position the antenna
wire as shown.
5. Connect the bell wire to the opener terminal screws:
white to 2 and white/red to 1.
6. Use tacks or staples to permanently attach the
entrapment warning label to the wall near the door
control, and the manual release/safety reverse test in a
prominent location on the inside of the garage door.
NOTE: DO NOT connect the power and operate the opener
at this time. The trolley will travel to the full open position
but will not return to the close position until the sensor
beam is connected and properly aligned. See Safety
Reversing Sensor instructions beginning on page 19.
