READ CAREFULLY BEFORE SETTING LIMITS FOR RIGID DOORS
(NOT APPLICABLE TO ROLLER SHUTTERS)
SETTING LIMITS
Automated Positioning Routine
The E-Drive features a limit confirmation routine that occurs after a power outage upon the first push of the UP or DOWN buttons. By
default, the routine will “jog” slightly downward in order to confirm door position before proceeding in the intended direction.
NOTE: For doors of rigid construction (e.g. bi-fold, vertical lift, sectional or continuous steel roller doors etc.) this routine should be
changed so that the first “jog” movement is upward. To do so, proceed as follows:
• While holding STOP, press the SET button 3 times and CONTINUE to hold STOP for 20 seconds (or until the orange light goes solid).
RKML6051 models (1/2hp roller door openers) will confirm limits by jogging UPWARD first by default. To reverse the limit confirmation
direction, proceed as above.
Setting Limits
While setting limits, ensure the upper limit is set NO CLOSER
than 50mm from the top stops (or fully open position) of the door.
1. While holding STOP, press the SET button 3 times.
The LIMIT indicator will start flashing signifying ‘limit setting mode’
2. Use the DOWN button to drive the door to the desired
CLOSED position.
The manual hand chain can be used to accurately position the
door before pressing SET
3. Press the SET button to save this as the CLOSED
position.
The LIMIT indicator will flash quickly then return flashing slowly
4. Use the UP button to drive the door to the desired
OPENED position.
The manual hand chain can be used to accurately position the
door before pressing set
5. Press SET again to save this as the OPENED position.
The LIMIT indicator will flash quickly then will go out
The Closed and Open limits should now be set. If at any time you
need to exit ‘limit setting mode’ simply press the STOP button.
Once set, operate the door between limits 2 times to check they
are suitable. If not, return to STEP 1.
Upon completion of the installation, turn power OFF, then back
ON at the open and closed positions, and test proper operation
accordingly. If required, refer to top of page to reverse the limit
confirmation direction.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL
Do not place hands or tools near the opener
when power is on or when testing controls or
safety devices.
Always disconnect power before servicing or
adjusting the opener.
WARNING
MECHANICAL
After the installation a final function test of the
system along with a full function test of any
connected safety devices must be done.
The E-Drive has the ability to set a third limit which is a handy
option for high doors that rarely need to be fully opened. The
third limit is a door position above the open limit position which
can be accessed when needed. Having this upper stopping
position allows a mid-height limit to be set as a first opening
point, while a further press of the open button takes the door to
a higher set position (not supported by myQ).
Setting a third limit
1. Follow the “Setting Limits” steps to set the Open and Closed
limits
2. Position the door at the Open limit position
3. While holding the UP button, press the SET button 3 times.
The LIMIT indicator will flash
4. Press and hold the UP button until the door is in the desired
extended open position
5. Press SET to save this as the extended open position.
The LIMIT indicator will quickly flash then go out
To access the third limit open the door to the first limit then
press the UP button again.
