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 (Figure 1), 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. Model 1215EM - Lighted door control: Remove the
cover from the Lighted Door Control. Fasten to wall with
6ABx1-1/2" self-tapping screws (Figure 4).
Model 1225EM - Multi-function door control: Remove
white cover by gently prying at slot in top of the cover
with a small flat 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 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.
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).
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.
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.
