INSTALL SAFETY BEAM SENSOR
WARNING
• Be sure power is not connected to the garage door opener while installing the safety beam sensor.
• The safety beam sensor must be installed and aligned properly.
• This safety device must not be disabled.

INSTALL SAFETY BEAM SENSOR
Important Information: The safety beam sensor can detect obstacles in the path of its invisible beam.
When the beam is obstructed while the door is closing, the door will stop immediately, reverse to the
fully open position and the opener lights will flash. It is important to ensure the invisible infrared is
unobstructed by any part of the garage door, tracks, other hardware or objects near the garage door.
Identify the Transmitter and the Receiver
The unit with the red LED is the transmitting
sensor. The unit with the blue LED is the
receiving sensor. Avoid sunlight shining
directly into the receiving sensor.
NOTE:
• Receiving sensor is labelled “Receive” on the wire.
