INSTALLATION STEP 7
Install the Door Control
Locate door control within sight of door, at a minimum
height of 5 feet (1.52 m) where small children cannot
reach, away from moving parts of door and door
hardware. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32" holes and
use the anchors provided. For pre-wired installations
(as in new home construction), it may be mounted to
a single gang box (Figure 2).
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 2 and
white/red wire to the 1.
2. Remove white cover by gently prying at slot inside
of the cover with a small fiat 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 1/8" (3 mm)
to protrude above walt surface.
• Position bottom of door control on screw head and
slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug fit.
• Drill and install top screw with care to avoid
cracking plastic housing. Do not over tighten.
• Insert top 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. If your access door is near the garage door,
you may run this wire with the Safety Reversing
Sensor wires along the top of the rail. See page 17.
4. Insert all wires through the opening on top of motor
unit above the terminal block on the back panel
(Figure 3).
5. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from each set of
wires. Insert door control wire into quick-connect
terminals by color: white wire to white, white/red
wire to red.
Separate white and white/black wires sufficiently to
connect to the opener quick-connect terminals.
Twist like colored wires together. Insert wires into
quick-connect holes: white to white and white/black
to grey.
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.
6. Use tacks or staples to permanently attach
entrapment warning label to wall near door control,
and manual release/safety reverse test label in a
