  P  automatic 
garage door opener, designed and developed in Australia 
by B&D Doors & Openers.
The technically advanced construction of this B&D opener 
ensures you enjoy the following benefits:
Warranty
Five (5) year/10,000 cycles full parts and labour warranty 
on  motor,  electronics  and  mechanical  components  of 
the  opener  when  installed  by  an  Approved  B&D  Dealer 
(conditions such as annual garage door servicing apply).
Tri-Tran Frequency Hopping Technology
Every time a transmitter is used, it simultaneously sends a 
signal over three different frequencies, reducing the chance 
of interference from other radio frequency sources.
Code Hopping Technology
Every  time  a  transmitter  is  used  a  new  security  code  is 
generated  from  over  4.29  billion  possible  combinations. 
This greatly enhances the security of the system and makes 
“code grabbing” a thing of the past!
Multi-Channel Transmitter
Multi-channel  transmitters  allow  you  to  operate  other 
devices  such  as  an  adjoining  garage  door  or  automated 
gate from the same handy unit.
Warranty Expired Indicator
The opener will indicate that the number of cycles covered 
by the warranty has been reached by flashing the courtesy 
light 10 times after each  operation. This flashing will 
continue  for  20  cycles  unless  it  is  reset  by  pressing  the 
LIMIT SET button while the courtesy light is flashing.
Safety Reversing System
The automatic safety reverse system significantly reduces 
the risk of  death or serious injury if trapped by a closing door. 
The safety reverse force can be adjusted for environmental 
conditions such as windy areas. 
LED Courtesy Light
Using the latest Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology, the 
opener features two light modules consisting of three LEDs 
each.  These  modules  produce  a  brilliant  white  light  that 
illuminates the garage upon activation.
The  courtesy  light  automatically  switches  on  for 
approximately  four  (4)  minutes  (time  programmable) 
when operating the door. This can also be programmed to 
turn on and off from a transmitter.
Memory Retention
In  case  of  a  power  failure  the  opener  does  not  lose  the 
transmitter codes or limit settings. 
Manual Release
The manual release handle allows  the door to be 
operated  by hand  in the  event  of  a power  failure. 
Handle needs to be a minimum of 1.8m from floor.
Self Locking
There is no need to manually lock your garage door, as 
the opener ‘positively’ locks the door when closed.
Periodic Maintenance Indicator 
The  SERVICE  LED  will  illuminate  to  indicate  that 
periodic maintenance is required. Contact your dealer/
installer for service. 
Service Fault Indicator
Flashing LEDs on the  control panel easily identify 
operational problems or service requirements.
Dynamic Door Profiling
Changing  door  characteristics  are  automatically 
compensated for and “learnt” with every operation of 
the door.
Auto-Close
The Auto-Close option can be programmed to shut the 
door approximately 30 seconds after it opens. PLEASE 
NOTE - Safety Infra-red Beams must be installed for 
this option to function.
External Aerial
An  external  aerial  can  be  connected for  sites  where 
radio reception is poor.
Vacation Mode
A  transmitter  can  be  programmed  to  disable  the 
garage door opener’s radio receiver. This is ideal if the 
door is to be left idle for prolonged periods.
Pet (Pedestrian) Mode
A  transmitter  can  be  programmed  to  open  the  door 
partially to  allow pets access  to the garage.  The  door 
opening height is adjustable via a handheld programmer.
Auxiliary Output
You can program a spare button on your transmitter to 
operate this output, which can control items that use a 
momentary close switching mechanism.
Anti-Travel Electronic Brakes
The  opener  features  an electronic  anti-travel  brake 
mechanism  to  ensure  the  opener  stops  the  door 
exactly at the set limit positions.
