The safety reversing sensors are designed to clip onto the door track with the provided sensor
brackets. If the door track will not support the sensor bracket a wall installation is recommended. The
sensor beam should be NO HIGHER than 6” (15 cm) above the oor.
DOOR TRACK INSTALLATION
1. Slide the curved arms of the sensor bracket around the edge of the door track. Snap into place
so that the sensor bracket is ush against the track.
2. Slide the hex screw through the sensor.
3. Attach the sensor to the bracket with the wing nut. Make sure the lens is not obstructed by the
bracket.
Repeat thesteps with theother sensor on theoppositedoor track. Both lenses must faceeach other.
IMPORTANT: The safety reversing sensors MUST be connected and aligned correctly
before the garage door opener will move in the down direction.
The Protector System
®
includes two safety reversing sensors which use a light beam to prevent the
garage door from closing. The sending sensor (amber LED) transmits the beam to the receiving
sensor (green LED) when both are powered and aligned. If an obstruction breaks the light beam while
the door is closing, the door will stop, and reverse to the full open position.
When installing the safety reversing sensors, check:
Sensors are installed INSIDE the garage.
Sensor lenses are facing each other.
IMPORTANT:
Do not allow direct sunlight to the receiving
sensor (green LED).
Sensor beam is NO HIGHER than 6” (15 cm) above the oor and the light beam is unobstructed.
