6.4 Setting Speed and Limits
Fig.6.4.1
6.4.1 Set the Limit Positions and adjust drive speed:
The Limit Positions can vary due to site conditions, such as uneven
ground. When setting the Close limit, ensure the position is when the
door makes first contact with the ground. Alternatively for the Open
limit the position should be at the height of the garage opening.
NOTE: The drive speed is set to the fastest setting by default. This may
not be suitable for larger doors or for single piece doors. For tilt doors
(J-Type only), please refer to Appendix E for initial setup.
a. Switch power on and the BLUE LED on the CLOSE button
will start to flash and the GEAR
LED is lit to indicate that the
opener is ready to set the Close travel limit (Fig 6.4.1).
b. Press either the CLOSE
or OPEN button to move the door to
the halfway point.

be used when the travel characteristics of the door change due to
mechanical adjustments etc. To initiate a re-profile:
a. Limits must be set.
b. Press the MODE button repetitively until the GEAR
LED is lit.
c. Press and hold the CLOSE button
for two seconds, the door
will open and close by itself to record profile.
Refer to Appendix B & C for adjustments to
margins.
