IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE SAFETY REVERSING SENSORS
The safety reversing sensors must be connected and aligned correctly before the garage door
opener will move in the down direction.
The sending sensor (with an amber LED) transmitsan invisible light beam to the receiving sensor (with a
green LED).If an obstruction breaks the light beam while the door isclosing,the door will stop and
reverse to the full open position, and the garage door opener lightswill flash 10 times.
NOTE: For energy efficiency the garage door opener will enter sleep mode when the door is fully
closed. The sleep mode shuts the garage door opener down until activated. The sleep mode is
sequenced with the garage door opener light bulb; as the light bulb turns offthe sensor LEDs will turn off
and whenever the garage door opener lights turn on the sensor LEDs will light. The garage door opener
will not go into the sleep mode until the garage door opener has completed 5 cycles upon power up.
When installing the safety reversing sensors check the following:
l
Sensorsare installed inside the garage, one on either side of the door.
l
Sensorsare facing each other with the lensesaligned and the receiving sensor lens does not
receive direct sunlight.
l
Sensorsare no more than 6 inches (15 cm) above the floor and the lightbeam is unobstructed.
