OPERATION
MANUAL RELEASE
In case of a power failure, the operator can be disengaged from the gate. With an
operator, the release action may sometimes feel stiff/jerky, which is normal and has
no effect on function.
RELEASE
1
Insert the key into the lock.
2
Turn the key counter-clockwise 180°.
3
Turn the release lever counter-clockwise 180°.
Operator is in manual mode and the gate can be opened and closed manually.
ENGAGE
1
Turn the release lever clockwise 180°. This engages the motor.
2
Turn the key clockwise 180°. This locks the release lever.
3
Remove the key and store in a safe place.
The operator is now engaged.
RESET BUTTON
The reset button is located on the side of the control box and serves several functions.
Pressing the reset button will stop a moving gate during a normal open/close cycle,
like a stop button. The operator does not need to be reset after doing this.
PROGRAMMING LIMITS RESET
If a mistake is made while programming the limits press the reset button to
start over.
OPERATOR ALARM
If a contact sensor detects an obstruction twice consecutively the alarm will sound
(up to 5 minutes) and the operator will need to be reset.
When the inherent force of the operator (RPM/current sensor) detects the
following (twice consecutively) the alarm will sound (up to 5 minutes) and the
operator will need to be reset:
A. The operator arm or gate is incorrectly installed.
B. The gate does not meet specifications.
C. Gate hinges are too tight or broken and the gate is not moving freely.
D. The gate is moving and a car pushes the gate.
E. A foreign object is on the gate frame while the gate is moving.
F. The gate hits the driveway, curb or other, and gets stuck or bent in an
awkward position.
Remove any obstructions. Press the reset button to shut off the alarm and reset
the operator. After the operator is reset, normal functions will resume.
The operator alarm will beep 3 times with a command if the battery is low.
REMOTE CONTROL
Once the remote control has been programmed the operator will operate as follows:
When gate is in the closed position, activation of the remote control button will open
the gate. During the open cycle another activation of the remote control will stop the
gate and the next activation of the remote control will close the gate.
When the gate is in the open position, activation of the remote control button will
close the gate. If the remote control is activated while the gate is closing, the gate will
stop and the next activation will open the gate.
PARTY MODE
If the Timer-to-Close feature is enabled and you would like the gate to remain open,
open the gate fully, then press the reset button. The next command given by a
LiftMaster remote control or SINGLE BUTTON on the control board will close the gate
and return the operator to normal operation.
NOTE: If an alternative radio receiver is wired to the operator, the receiver must be
wired to the SINGLE BUTTON and CTRL PWR inputs.
