INSTALLATION STEP 6

Install the Door Control

Locate door control within sight of the door at a
minimum height of 1.5 m where small children cannot
reach, and away from moving parts of the door and
door hardware. The installation surface must be smooth
and flat. If installing into drywall (Figure 1), drill 4 mm
holes and use anchors provided. For pre-wired
installations (as in new home construction), it may be
mounted to a single gang box (Figure 2).

NOTE: After installation, a green indicator light behind
the cover will indicate proper connection. If not lit, the
Lock and Light features will not function (reverse wires
to correct).

1. Strip 11 mm of insulation from one end of bell wire

and connect to the two screw terminals on back of
door control by color: white wire to 2 and white/red
wire to the 1 (Figure 3).

2. Model 1215E - Lighted door control: Remove the

cover from the Lighted Door Control. Fasten to wall
with 6ABx1-1/2" self-tapping screws (Figure 4)

Model 1225E - Multi-function door control: Remove
white cover by gently prying at slot in top of the cover
with a small flat head screwdriver. Fasten with
6ABx1-1/4" self-tapping screws (drywall installation)
or 6-32x1" machine screws (into gang box) as
follows:

• Drill and install bottom screw, allowing 3 mm to

protrude above wall surface.

• Position bottom of door control on screw head and

slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug fit.

• Install top screw with care to avoid cracking plastic

housing. Do not overtighten.

• Insert bottom tabs and snap on cover.

3. (Standard installation only) Run bell wire up wall

and across ceiling to motor unit. Use insulated
staples to secure wire in several places. Do not
pierce wire with a staple, creating a short or open
circuit.

4. Strip 11 mm of insulation from end of bell wire.

Connect bell wire to the quick-connect terminals as
follows: white to white and white/red to red (Figure 5).

NOTE: When connecting multiple door controls to the
opener, twist same color wires together. Insert wires
into quick-connect holes: white to white and red/white
to red.

5. Use tacks or staples to permanently attach

entrapment warning label to wall near door control,
and manual release/safety reverse test label in a
prominent location on inside of garage door.
