7. Test the Autocloser

system. Plug in the garage door opener.

A. Switch the system to on. Close then reopen the garage door. As soon as the

door is open, the system will start a software timer. The default door closer
delay time is 5 minutes. When the timer completes this five-minute count, the
system will begin to emit an audible beep. Thirty seconds after the beeping
begins, the door will partially close, then reopen. After a brief period of time,
the door will close.

B. Reopen the door. Press the disable button and then release. The Autocloser

will beep twice to indicate that the unit has been placed into ‘temporary dis-
able’. The red disable LED will begin to blink. The door will not automati-
cally close until the system is taken out of disable mode by closing the door.




The disable button is not a safety feature. The disable button will not re-

verse a door that is moving. If the door is closing and needs to be
stopped, the garage door opener button should be pushed! The disable
button is intended to temporarily disable the system so that the garage

door can be left open. If the power goes out while the unit is in disable
mode, the unit will restart in disable mode once the power is restored.
To permanently disable the system, turn off the Autocloser using the on/

off switch.

TIP- The disable button can be pressed during the audible alarm to reset
the timer in order to give additional time before the unit auto closes the
garage door. To put the unit in disable mode, press the disable button
again.

C. Press the disable button again. The Autocloser will beep twice while the but-

ton is in and six times when it is released in order to indicate that the unit has
already been placed in temporary disable. The unit can only be re-enabled by
closing the garage door. Press the garage door opener wall button. The Auto-
closer will beep twice once the door begins to close and the disable light will
stop blinking. This indicates that the Autocloser is no longer in ‘temporary
disable’. Once the door is closed, press the disable button again. The unit will
beep twice while the button is in and six times when it is released to indicate
that the door is closed and cannot be placed in ‘temporary disable’ mode.

D. Open the door. Simulate an obstruction in the doorway by placing a 2X4

across the middle of the door threshold.
