Owner's Manual
TO AVOID DAMAGE TO DOOR AND
OPERATOR ENSURE ALL DOOR LOCKS ARE
DISABLED.
USE AN INTERLOCK SWITCH IF A LOCK IS
REQUIRED TO RETAIN FUNCTIONALTY.
CAUTION
RISK OF ENTRAPMENT THAT MAY
RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH. DISCONNECT POWER TO THE
OPENER BEFORE AND DURING
INSTALLATION OF AN ACCESSORY
REVERSING DOOR EDGE OR
PHOTOELECTRIC DEVICE. DO NOT
RECONNECT POWER TO OPENER UNTIL
INSTRUCTED TO DO SO. ENSURE DOORWAY
IS CLEAR BEFORE STARTING TESTING OF
UNIT.
WARNING
TO PREVENT THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY
AND/OR DAMAGE TO DOOR OR PROPERTY,
ONLY OPERATE DOOR CONTROL WHEN
DOOR IS IN CLEAR VIEW. IF CONTROL
STATION CANNOT BE LOCATED WHERE THE
DOOR IS VISIBLE OR IF ANY OTHER DEVICE IS
USED TO CONTROL THE DOOR AN AUXILIARY
ENTRAPMENT DEVICE (DOOR EDGE OR
PHOTOELECTRIC) MUST BE CONNECTED.
WARNING
TO PREVENT THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY
OR DEATH :
• DISCONNECT POWER AT THE FUSE BOX
BEFORE PROCEEDING.
• ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE
BY A QUALIFIED INDIVIDUAL.
• OBSERVE LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES WHEN
WIRING THE OPERATOR.
WARNING
WARNING: Allstar's J & H Series operators have been
designed and constructed for use with voltages from 115 Volts
AC to 480 Volts AC, in single or three phase. Check the
operator nameplate label on the control box cover for the
proper voltage and phase. The application of an improper
input voltage or phase will result in catastrophic failure to the
internal electrical components.
Observe local electrical codes when wiring the operator.
When hard wiring, observe state and local electrical codes. A
wiring diagram is attached to the inside of the control box cover.
Connect the appropriate voltage and phase power leads to the
appropriate terminals as per the wiring diagram and connect a
ground wire to the grounding screw. On three phase units,
incorrect phasing of the power supply will cause the motor to
rotate in the wrong direction (open when CLOSE button is pushed
and vice versa). To correct this, interchange any two of the
incoming three phase conductors.
The wiring diagram attached inside the cover of the control box
details all of the field wiring terminal connections for the operator.
Always connect the wires to the push-button controls and auxiliary
devices exactly as shown.
Warning: Control voltage of the operator is 24 volts AC,
Class 2. Do not run the power leads and control circuit wiring
in the same electrical conduit.
Note: Most J & H Series model operators are pre-wired for
door reversing edge components. To comply with code
requirements, the door reversing edge components must be
installed and wired to the operator. Refer to Figure 9 and 10
for Edge component wiring and installation.
For operator models not equipped with reversing edge
components ONLY ONE THREE BUTTON WALL
STATION AND NO OTHER MEANS OF CONTROL may
be used to control the operator. This is to comply with safety
requirements. In this case the pushbutton station must be located
WITHIN CLEAR SIGHT OF THE DOOR adjacent to a
placard (supplied with the operator) with this wording:
WARNING
TO PREVENT ENTRAPMENT
DO NOT START DOOR DOWNWARD
UNLESS DOOR WAY IS CLEAR
Operators which are equipped with a reversing edge circuit may
have one or more additional means of control which should be
wired in accordance with the diagram supplied in the operator.
To add a second three button station, refer to Figure 10.
Number 18 gauge wire or heavier must be used for wiring
the control stations and auxiliary control devices to the
operator. Smaller gauge wire will cause operational
problems, especially when multiple push-button stations are
used or during summer months.
