LiftMaster 889LM MyQ Control Panel

Owner's Guide Tools

APPLICATION

The MyQ Control Panel is intended to be installed with Security+® Garage Door Openers manufactured between 1998 and present. The MyQ Control Panel is NOT compatible with Security+ 2.0® Garage Door Openers. DO NOT install this door control on garage door opener systems controlling one-piece or swing doors.

OVERVIEW

The MyQ Control Panel offers a quick and convenient way to add Security+ 2.0 and MyQ technology to your existing garage door opener. MyQ technology uses a 900MHz signal to provide two-way communication between the garage door opener and MyQ enabled accessories. When programmed to the LiftMaster® Internet Gateway you can monitor and control your garage door from any internet enabled computer or smartphone. You may program up to 12 Security+ 2.0 remote controls, 2 Security+ 2.0 keyless entries and a combination of 16 MyQ accessories to the MyQ control panel.

Install the MyQ Control Panel in place of the existing door control, within sight of garage door, out of reach of small children at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5 m) above floors, landings, steps or any other adjacent walking surface, and away from ALL moving parts of door. Due to power consumption the MyQ Control Panel cannot be used in conjunction with another wired door control connected to your garage door opener. If an additional door control is needed, the wireless door control model 885LM can be programmed to the MyQ Control Panel.

To program the 885LM to the MyQ Control Panel, follow the remote control programming steps. When in battery back-up mode, any feature using unattended operation such as Timer-to-Close, closure from a garage door and gate monitor or remote operation utilizing the LiftMaster® Internet Gateway will be disabled.

1. Disconnect all electrical and battery power (if applicable) to the garage door opener.
2. Remove the existing door control from the wall.
