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 (Figure1), 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. Remove white cover by gently prying at slot in 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 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. (To remove
cover after mounting, gently pry at top with paper clip
or small flat head screwdriver.)
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 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).
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.
