Adjusting Safety Obstruction Force
Adjusting Safety Obstruction Force
The Safety Obstruction Force is calculated automatically
and set in the memory on the opener during setup. It is
usually not necessary to adjust the Safety Obstruction Force.
The only time the force may need to be increased is due
to environmental conditions, for example, windy or dusty
areas, and areas with extreme temperature changes.
WARNING:
Doors requiring over 400N of force
to move must have Safety Infra-red Beams fitted
for safety.
Step 16.3 - To Increase Force Pressure
Press and hold the FORCE MARGIN SET button (Fig.
30).
While holding down the FORCE MARGIN SET button,
press the PLUS (+) button. Each press increases the
force margin.
The OPEN LIMIT LED will flash each time the PLUS
(+) button is pressed to indicate an increase in force.
If the OPEN LIMIT LED flashes continuously
when the PLUS (+) button is being pressed,
this indicates that the maximum force
pressure setting has been reached.
Test the force again as per Steps 16.1 and 16.2 on
page 17.
Step 16.4 - To Decrease Force Pressure
Press and hold the FORCE MARGIN SET button (Fig.
31).
While holding down the FORCE MARGIN SET button,
press the MINUS (-) button. Each press decreases the
force margin (Fig. 31).
The CLOSE LIMIT LED will flash each time the MINUS
(-) button is pressed to indicate a decrease in force.
If the CLOSE LIMIT LED flashes continuously
when the MINUS (-) button is being
pressed, this indicates that the minimum
force pressure setting has been reached.
Test the force again as per Steps 16.1 and 16.2 on
page 17.
Step 16.5 - To Recall Factory Set Force
While holding down the FORCE MARGIN SET button,
press the LIMIT SET button (Fig. 32) for two (2)
seconds.
Release both buttons. The default setting should now
be recalled.
