Sensitivity
Adjustment
This adjustment controls
the
amount
of
force
the
operator
can
apply
in
the
"Down"
direction
before reversing
if
door travel
is
obstructed.
For minimum closin<J force, adjust screw for less
sensitivity.
Because
each
door/operator
combination is not
the
some,
the
"Down"
sensitivity
must
be
set for
each
installation.
Adjustments must be
made
with
at
least 1/2 turn increments (See
Fig.
1
below).
For
maximum sensitivity (minimum permitted closing
force),
alternately
turn
adjusting screw counterclockwise
and
operate
door
in
closing
cycle.
Repeat until door will not close without reversing.
Next,
turn
adjusting screw clockwise until door
can
be
operated
through a
complete
closing
cycle
without reversing.
To
test,
place
a
firm
but
pliable
item, such as a paste board
carton
or a
plastic
trash
can
(laid
on
its side)
in
the
path
of
door and start
operator
to
close.
Door should reverse without crushing
object.
Test sensitivity
periodically.

Phantom
operation
is
the
inadvertent opening

Should you experience this inadvertent
operation,
follow these

We
DO
NOT recommend changing frequency coding
UNLESS you are
experiencing
