Mounting and Wiring the Safety Reversing Sensors
• Slide a 1/4"-20xl/2" carriage bolt headinto the slot on each
sensor. Usewing nuts to fasten sensors to brackets, with lenses
pointing toward each other across the door. Besure the lens is
not obstructed by a bracket extension (Figure 6).
• Fingertighten the wing nuts.
• Run the wires from both sensors to the opener. Useinsulated
staples to securewire to wall and ceiling.
• Strip 1/4" (6 mm) of insulation from each set of wires. Separate
white and white/black wires sufficiently to connect to the
terminal screws: white to 2 and white/black to 3 (Figure 7).
ALIGNINGTHESAFETYREVERSINGSENSORS
• Plug in the opener. The indicator lights in both the sending and
receiving eyeswill glow steadily if wiring connections and
alignment arecorrect.
The sending eye greenindicator light will glow regardlessof
alignment or obstruction. If the green indicator light in the
receiving eyeis off, dim, or flickering (andthe invisible light beam
path is not obstructed), alignment is required.
• Loosenthe sending eyewing nut and readjust, aiming directly at
the receiving eye. Lock in place.
• Loosenthe receiving eyewing nut and adjust sensor until it
receivesthe sender's beam.When the green indicator light
glows steadily, tighten the wing nut.

TROUBLESHOOTINGTHE SAFETYREVERSINGSENSORS
1. If the sending eyeindicator light does not glow steadily after
installation, check for:
• Electric power to the opener.
• A short in the white or white/black wires. Thesecan occur at
staples, or at opener connections.
• Incorrect wiring betweensensors and opener.
• A broken wire.
2. If the sending eyeindicator light glows steadily but the receiving
eye indicator light doesn't:
• Checkalignment.
• Checkfor an openwire to the receiving eye.
3. If the receiving eye indicator light is dim, realigneither sensor.
NOTE:Whenthe invisible beam path is obstructed or misaligned
while the door is closing, the door will reverse.If the door is
already open, it will not close. The openerlights will blink 10times.
(If bulbs are not installed, 10 clicks can be heard.) Seepage20.
