Aligning the Infrared Photo Beam
1. A lit GREEN LED indicates that the
photo beams have power.
2. Adjust the beams so that the sending
unit and receiving unit are aligned.
When the RED LED lights up the
photo beams are aligned.
3. If an object blocks the infrared beam
while the door is closing, the door will
stop, then reverse and fully open (the
opener’s light will  ash three times).
4. As a safety feature, the opener will
ignore signals from all remote controls
if the door is open and the photo
beam is blocked or out of alignment.
In this case, the door can be forced
closed by pressing and holding the
wall station’s button (be sure the door
area is in clear view).

opening to the receiver.
