The Safety Reversing System Information you'll need before you begin the installation of the safety reversing sensor. The safety reversing sensor must be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door opener will move in the down direction° This is a required safety device and cannot be disabled. Installation procedures are the same for sectional and one-piece doors. Without a properly working safety reversing sensor, persons (particularly children) could be injured or killed by a closing garage door. Read and follow all Instructions. To protect small children, install the safety reversing sensor so that the beam will be no higher than 4"-6" above the garage floor. Disconnect power to the garage door opener before installing the safety reversing sensor. .................................. i Be sure power to the opener is disconnected. The sending eye transmits an invisible light beam to the receiving eye. The units can be installed on either side of the garage door as long as the sun never shines directly into the receiving eye lens. Look at the label on the connector end of each case to identify the sensors. The brackets must be connected and fastened so that the sending and receiving eyes face each other as shown in Figure 1. If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the garage door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to full open position and the opener lights will flash for 5 seconds. The brackets must be securely fastened to a solid surface such as the studs on either side of the door, or add a piece of wood at each location if installing in masonry construction. The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed° No part of the garage door (or door tracks, spdngs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) can interrupt the beam while the door is closing. If it does, use a piece of wood to build out each sensor mounting location to the minimum depth required for light beam clearance.

Securely tighten the sending eye wing nut. ⢠Run the wires from both sensors to the opener. Use insulated staples to secure wire to wall and ceiling. o Strip 1/4" of insulation from each set of wires. Separate white and white!black wires sufficiently to connect to the opener terminal screws: white to 2 and white/black to 3. Aligning the Safety Sensors ⢠Plug in the opener. Green indicator lights in both the sending and receMng eyes will glowsteadilyif wiring connections and alignment are correct. The sanding eye indicator light will glow regardless of alignment or obstruction. If the indicator light is off, dim, or flickering in the receiving eye (and the invisible light beam path is not obstructed), alignment is require& ⢠Loosen the sending eye wing nut and readjust, aiming directly at the receiving eye. Lock in place. ⢠Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust sensor vertically and/or horizontally until it receives the sender's beam. When the green indicator light glows steadily, tighten the wing nut. Figure 6 Trouble Shooting 1o If the sending eye indicator light does not glow steadily after installation, check for. ⢠Electric power to the opener. ⢠A short in the white or white/black wires. These can occur under staples or at screw terminal connections. ⢠Incorrect wiring between sensors and opener. ⢠An open wire (wire break). 2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadily but the receMng eye indicator light doesn't: ⢠Check alignment. ⢠Check for an open wire to the receiving eye. 3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realign either sensor. NOTE: When the invisible beam path is obstructed or misaligned while the door is closing, the door will reverse. If the door is already open, # will not close. The opener lights will flash 10 times. (If bulbs are not installed, 10 clicks are audible.) See page 21. 23

Adjustment Section: Pages 28 -30 Adjustment Step 1 Adjust the UP and DOWN Limits Do not make any limit adjustments until the safety reversing sensors are completely installed_ Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at which the door will stop when moving up or down. The door will stop in the up direction if anything interferes with door travel The door will reverse in the down direction if anything interferes with the door travel (including binding or unbalanced doors). To operate the opener, press the Door Control push button,. Run the opener through a complete travel cycle. ⢠Does the door open and close completely? ⢠Does the door stay closed and not reverse unintentionally when fully closed? If your door passes both of these tests, no limit adjustments are necessary unless the reversing test fails (See page 30). Adjustment procedures are outlined below. Run the opener through a complete travel cycle after each adjustment. Repeated operation of the opener during adjustment procedures may cause the motor to overheat and shut off. Simply wait 15 minutes and try again. Read the procedures carefully before proceeding to Adjustment Step 2o Use a screwdriver to make limit adjustments. Improper adjustment of the travel limits will interfere wlth the proper operation of the safety reverse system. The door might not reverse properly when required and could seriously injure or kill someone under it. Test the safety reverse system following all adjustments to the travel limits.

The door will reverse in the down direction if anything interferes with its travel (including binding or unbalanced doors). I{ the forces are set too light, door travel may be intem_pted by nuisance reversals in the down direction and stops in the up direction. Weather conditions can affect the door movement, so occasional adjustment may be needed. The maximum force adjustment range is 260 degrees, about 3/4 of a complete tum, Do not force controls beyond that point. Turn force adjustment controls wff.h a screwdriver.. A_ustmettt Labe! Too much force on the door will interfere with the proper operation of the safety reverse system. The door might not reverse properly when required and could seriously injure or kill someone under it. Do not increase the force beyond the minimum amount required to close the door, Do not use the force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking garage door. Test the safety reverse system following all adjustments to force levels. See page 30. Right Side Panel How and When to Adjust the Forces Test the DOWN (close) force Grasp the door bottom when the door is about halfway through DOWN (close) travel. The door should reverse. Reversal halfway through down travel does not guarantee reversal on a one-inch obstruction. See page 30. If the door is hard to hold or doesn't reverse, decrease the DOWN (close) force by turning the control counterclockwise° Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door reverses normally. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete cycle. Test the UP (open) force Grasp the door bottom when the door is about halfway through UP (open) travel. The door should stop. if the door is hard to hold or doesn't stop, decrease UP (open) force by tuming the control counterclockwiseo Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door stops easily. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle. if the door doesn't open at least 5 feet Increase UP (Open) force by turning the control clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until door opens completely. Re-adjust the UP limit if necessary. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle. If the door reverses during the down (close) cycle and the opener lights aren't flashing Increase DOWN (close) force by turning the control clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door completes a close cycle. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle° Do not increase the force beyond the minimum amount required to close the door. 29

The Safety Reversing System Information you'll need before you begin the installation of the safety reversing sensor. The safety reversing sensor must be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door opener will move in the down direction° This is a required safety device and cannot be disabled. Installation procedures are the same for sectional and one-piece doors. Without a properly working safety reversing sensor, persons (particularly children) could be injured or killed by a closing garage door. Read and follow all Instructions. To protect small children, install the safety reversing sensor so that the beam will be no higher than 4"-6" above the garage floor. Disconnect power to the garage door opener before installing the safety reversing sensor. .................................. i Be sure power to the opener is disconnected. The sending eye transmits an invisible light beam to the receiving eye. The units can be installed on either side of the garage door as long as the sun never shines directly into the receiving eye lens. Look at the label on the connector end of each case to identify the sensors. The brackets must be connected and fastened so that the sending and receiving eyes face each other as shown in Figure 1. If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the garage door is closing, the door will stop and reverse to full open position and the opener lights will flash for 5 seconds. The brackets must be securely fastened to a solid surface such as the studs on either side of the door, or add a piece of wood at each location if installing in masonry construction. The invisible light beam path must be unobstructed° No part of the garage door (or door tracks, spdngs, hinges, rollers or other hardware) can interrupt the beam while the door is closing. If it does, use a piece of wood to build out each sensor mounting location to the minimum depth required for light beam clearance.

Lock in place. ⢠Loosen the receiving eye wing nut and adjust sensor vertically and/or horizontally until it receives the sender's beam. When the green indicator light glows steadily, tighten the wing nut. Figure 6 Trouble Shooting 1o If the sending eye indicator light does not glow steadily after installation, check for. ⢠Electric power to the opener. ⢠A short in the white or white/black wires. These can occur under staples or at screw terminal connections. ⢠Incorrect wiring between sensors and opener. ⢠An open wire (wire break). 2. If the sending eye indicator light glows steadily but the receMng eye indicator light doesn't: ⢠Check alignment. ⢠Check for an open wire to the receiving eye. 3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realign either sensor. NOTE: When the invisible beam path is obstructed or misaligned while the door is closing, the door will reverse. If the door is already open, # will not close. The opener lights will flash 10 times. (If bulbs are not installed, 10 clicks are audible.) See page 21. 23

Adjustment Section: Pages 28 -30 Adjustment Step 1 Adjust the UP and DOWN Limits Do not make any limit adjustments until the safety reversing sensors are completely installed_ Limit adjustment settings regulate the points at which the door will stop when moving up or down. The door will stop in the up direction if anything interferes with door travel The door will reverse in the down direction if anything interferes with the door travel (including binding or unbalanced doors). To operate the opener, press the Door Control push button,. Run the opener through a complete travel cycle. ⢠Does the door open and close completely? ⢠Does the door stay closed and not reverse unintentionally when fully closed? If your door passes both of these tests, no limit adjustments are necessary unless the reversing test fails (See page 30). Adjustment procedures are outlined below. Run the opener through a complete travel cycle after each adjustment. Repeated operation of the opener during adjustment procedures may cause the motor to overheat and shut off. Simply wait 15 minutes and try again. Read the procedures carefully before proceeding to Adjustment Step 2o Use a screwdriver to make limit adjustments. Improper adjustment of the travel limits will interfere wlth the proper operation of the safety reverse system.

ill ...... _J ,J_ i,,, HH IL_ I Adjustment Step 2 Adjust the Force J,, ii i,i NIl ,,q,,iH ill ii Force adjustment controls are located on the right side panel of the opener. Force adjustment settings regulate the amount of power required to open and close the door. The door will stop in the up direction if anything interferes with its travel. The door will reverse in the down direction if anything interferes with its travel (including binding or unbalanced doors). I{ the forces are set too light, door travel may be intem_pted by nuisance reversals in the down direction and stops in the up direction. Weather conditions can affect the door movement, so occasional adjustment may be needed. The maximum force adjustment range is 260 degrees, about 3/4 of a complete tum, Do not force controls beyond that point. Turn force adjustment controls wff.h a screwdriver.. A_ustmettt Labe! Too much force on the door will interfere with the proper operation of the safety reverse system. The door might not reverse properly when required and could seriously injure or kill someone under it. Do not increase the force beyond the minimum amount required to close the door, Do not use the force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking garage door. Test the safety reverse system following all adjustments to force levels. See page 30. Right Side Panel How and When to Adjust the Forces Test the DOWN (close) force Grasp the door bottom when the door is about halfway through DOWN (close) travel. The door should reverse. Reversal halfway through down travel does not guarantee reversal on a one-inch obstruction. See page 30. If the door is hard to hold or doesn't reverse, decrease the DOWN (close) force by turning the control counterclockwise° Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door reverses normally. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete cycle. Test the UP (open) force Grasp the door bottom when the door is about halfway through UP (open) travel. The door should stop. if the door is hard to hold or doesn't stop, decrease UP (open) force by tuming the control counterclockwiseo Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door stops easily. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle. if the door doesn't open at least 5 feet Increase UP (Open) force by turning the control clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until door opens completely. Re-adjust the UP limit if necessary. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle. If the door reverses during the down (close) cycle and the opener lights aren't flashing Increase DOWN (close) force by turning the control clockwise. Make 10 degree turn adjustments until the door completes a close cycle. After each adjustment, run the opener through a complete travel cycle° Do not increase the force beyond the minimum amount required to close the door. 29
