INSTALLATION STEP 6

Install the Door Control

Locate door control within sight of door at a
minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) where small
children cannot reach, and away from moving parts
of door and door hardware. The installation surface
must be smooth and flat. If installing into drywall
(Figure 1), drill 5/32" 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 or
amber 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 7/16" (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
WHT and white/red wire to the RED (Figure 3).

2. Remove white cover by gently prying on a side

corner near the top of the cover with a small flat
head screwdriver (Figure 4). 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 1/8" (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.

NOTE: The push bar may stick if the door control
is not mounted on a smooth surface. If a click is
not heard when pressing the push bar, loosen the
two mounting screws or relocate the door control
to a smoother surface.

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 7/16" (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.

NOTE: DO NOT connect power and operate 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.
