Testing Safety Obstruction Force
CAUTION: Take care when testing the safety
obstruction force. Failure to follow this
warning can result in serious personal injury
and/or property damage.
Step 15.1 Test the Close Cycle
Press the OPERATE button to open the door (Fig. 25).
Place a piece of timber approximately 40mm high on
the fl oor directly under the door (Fig 26).
Press the OPERATE button to close door.
The door should strike the object and re-open.
Step 15.2 Testing the Open Cycle
Press the OPERATE button to close the door (Fig. 25).
Press again to open the door.
When the door reaches approximately half way, fi rmly
grab the door’s bottom rail - the door should stop.
If the door does not reverse readily when closing, or stop
when opening, the force may be excessive and need
adjustment, refer to Step 13.4.
IMPORTANT WARNING: If the door is closing
and is unable to re-open when obstructed,
discontinue use. Do not use a door with faulty
obstruction sensing. Repair fault and re-test
before using.
Adjusting Safety Obstruction Force
The safety obstruction force is calculated automatically
and normally does not require adjustment. The only time
the force may need to be adjusted is due to environmental
conditions, such as areas that are windy, dusty or have
extreme temperature changes that affect the operability
and movement of the door.
WARNING: Doors requiring over 400N of force
to move must have Safety Infra-red Beams fi tted
for safety.
Step 15.3 - To Increase Force Pressure
Press and hold the FORCE MARGIN SET button (Fig
25).
While holding down the FORCE MARGIN SET button,
press the PLUS (+) button.
Each press will increase the force margin one step.
The OPEN LIMIT LED will fl ash each time the PLUS
(+) button is pressed to indicate an increase in force.
Test the force again as per Steps 13.1 and 13.2.
If the OPEN LIMIT LED fl ashes continuously when the
PLUS (+) button is being pressed, this indicates that
the maximum force setting has been reached.

step. The CLOSE LIMIT LED will fl ash each time
the MINUS (-) button is pressed to indicate a
decrease in force.
Test the force again as per Steps 13.1 and 13.2.
If the CLOSE LIMIT LED fl ashes continuously
when the MINUS (-) button is being pressed,
this indicates that the minimum force setting has
been reached.
Step 15.5 - To Recall Factory Set Force

and the SET button for two seconds.
Release both buttons. The default setting should
now be recalled.
