ENGLISH
Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing this quality product from our company.
Please keep these instructions safe for later reference!
Please carefully read and follow these instructions. They provide
you with important information on the safe installation, operation
and correct care / maintenance of your garage door operator,
thus ensuring that this product will give you satisfaction for
many years to come.
Please observe all our safety notes and warnings, specifically
headed ATTENTION, CAUTION or Note.

1.1.2 Checking the door / door system

The design of the operator is not suitable nor intended for
the opening and closing of heavy doors, i.e. doors that
are difficult or impossible to open and close manually.
Before installing the operator, it is therefore necessary to check the door and make sure that it can
also be easily moved by hand.
To do this, raise the door approx. 1 metre and then let it
go. The door should retain this position, moving neither
up nor down. If the door moves in any of the two directions, there is a risk that the compensating springs are
defective or incorrectly adjusted. In this case increased
wear and malfunctioning of the door system can be
expected.

IMPORTANT NOTES
CAUTION: Danger!
Do not attempt to change, re-adjust, repair or
move the compensating springs for the door's
counterbalance mechanism or their holders. The
springs are under considerable tension and can
cause serious injury. In addition, check the entire
door system (pivots, door bearings, cables,
springs and fastenings) for wear and possible
damage.
Check for signs of corrosion or fractures. The
door system may not be used if repair or adjustment work needs to be carried out. Always
remember that a fault in the door system or a
misaligned door can also cause severe injury.

ATTENTION
Installation, maintenance, repair and dismantling
of the garage door operator may only be carried
out by specialists.

Note
The inspection log book and instructions for safe handling
and maintenance of the door system must be placed at
the disposal of the end user.

1.1

Important safety instructions

CAUTION
Incorrect installation or handling of the operator
could result in serious injury. For this reason, it
is important to follow all the instructions in this
manual.

This garage door operator is designed exclusively for

impulse operation of spring-balanced up-and-over and
sectional doors in the non-commercial sector. Use in
the commercial sector is not permitted!
Please observe the manufacturer's specifications regarding
the door and operator combination. Possible hazards as
defined in EN 12604 and EN 12453 are prevented by the
design itself and by carrying out installation in accordance
with our guidelines. Door systems used by the general
public and equipped with a single protective device, e.g.
force limit, may only be used when monitored.
1.1.1 Warranty
We shall be exempt from our warranty obligations and
product liability in the event that the customer carries
out his own structural changes or undertakes improper
installation work or arranges for same to be carried out
without our prior approval and contrary to the installation
guidelines we have provided. Moreover, we shall accept no
responsibility for the inadvertent or negligent operation of
the operator and accessories nor for the improper maintenance of the door and its counterbalance mechanism.
Batteries and light bulbs are also not covered by the
warranty.
Note
Should the garage door operator fail, a specialist must be
immediately entrusted with its inspection / repair.

Note
Before installing the operator, and in the interests of your
own safety, make sure that any work needed on the door's
compensating springs is carried out by a qualified garage
door specialist. Only correct fitting and maintenance in
compliance with the instructions by a competent / specialist
company or a competent / qualified person ensures safe
and flawless operation of the system.

1.2

Important instructions for safe installation

The specialist carrying out the work must ensure that
installation is conducted in compliance with the prevailing
national regulations on occupational safety and those
governing the operation of electrical equipment. In
the process, the relevant national guidelines must be
observed.
Possible hazards as defined in DIN EN 13241-1 are prevented by the design itself and by carrying out installation
in accordance with our guidelines. Any further processing
must ensure that the national regulations governing the
operation of electrical equipment are complied with.

1.2.1 Before installing the garage door operator, check

that the door is in a flawless mechanical condition and
is correctly balanced, so that it can be easily moved by
hand (EN 12604). Further check whether the door opens
and closes in the proper manner (see section 1.1.2).
In addition, any of the door's mechanical locks and
latches not needed for power operation of the garage
door should be immobilized. Included here in particular
are the latching mechanisms of the door lock (see section
3.2.1/3.2.2).
The garage door operator is designed for use in dry
buildings and therefore may not be installed outdoors.
The garage ceiling must be constructed in such a way
as to guarantee safe, secure anchoring of the operator.
In the case of ceilings that are too high or too lightweight,
the operator must be attached to additional braces.
10.2007 TR10A036-C RE

ENGLISH
Note
The installer must check that the fitting materials supplied are
suitable for the purpose and intended place of installation.
The clearance between the highest point of the door and
the ceiling (also when the door is opening) must be at
least 30 mm (see figure 1.1a/1.1b ). If there is inadequate
clearance, the operator may also be installed behind the
opened door, provided sufficient space is available. In
these instances, an extended door link (to be ordered
separately) must be used. The garage door operator can
be positioned off-centre by a maximum of 50 cm. The
exception being sectional doors with high-lift tracks
(track application "H"), where a special track fitting is required. The required shockproof electric socket allowing
the operator to be connected to the electricity supply
should be installed at a distance of approx. 50 cm from
the operator head. Please check these dimensions!

1.4

Maintenance advice
The garage door operator is maintenance-free. For your
own safety, however, we recommend having the door
system checked by a specialist in accordance with the
manufacturer's specifications. Inspection and maintenance
work may only be carried out by a specialist. In this connection, please contact your supplier. A visual inspection
may be carried out by the owner.
If repairs become necessary, please contact your supplier.
We would like to point out that any repairs not carried
out properly or with due professionalism shall render the
warranty null and void.

1.5

Information on the illustrated section

The illustrated section shows installation of the operator
on an up-and-over door. Where installation differs for a
sectional door, this is shown in addition. In this instance,
letters are assigned to the figures as follows:

ENGLISH
DEFINITIONS

Possible hazards as defined in DIN EN 13241-1 are

prevented by the design itself and by carrying out
installation in accordance with our guidelines.

Hold-open phase
Waiting phase at the OPEN end-of-travel position before
the door closes using the automatic timer.

Note
The function of all safety and protective devices should
be tested once a month, during which time any detected
faults or defects should be rectified immediately.

Automatic timer
Automatic timed closing of the door from the OPEN
end-of-travel position, following elapse of a set phase.
DIL-switches
Switches on the control unit circuit board for setting
the controls.

ATTENTION
Only ever operate the garage door when you
have full view of the movement range of the door.
Before driving in or out of the garage, always
check that the door has fully opened. You must
never drive or walk through the entrance to the
garage unless the door has reached the OPEN
end-of-travel position. In addition, check the entire
door system (door pivots, bearings and fastenings)
for wear and possible damage. Check for signs
of corrosion or fractures. The door system may
not be used if repair or adjustment work needs
to be carried out. Always remember that a fault
in the door system or a misaligned door can
cause severe injury.

Photocell
When the photocell safety device is activated, a closing
door stops and reverses. The hold-open phase starts
afresh.
Impulse controls
A sequence of impulses allowing the door to alternately
OPEN-STOP-CLOSE-STOP.
Force-learning cycle
During a learning cycle the necessary forces are learned.
Normal cycle
Door travels applying the learned distances and forces.

All persons using the door system must be shown how

to operate it properly and safely. Demonstrate and test
the mechanical release as well as the safety return. To
do this, halt the closing door by grasping it with both
hands. The door system must initiate the safety return.

Reference cycle
Door travels in the OPEN direction in order to lay down
the standard setting.
Reversing cycle
Door travels in the opposite direction on activation of
the safety devices, up to the OPEN end-of-travel position.

Prior to installation, any of the door's mechanical locks

and latches not needed for power operation of the door
should be immobilized and, if necessary, removed
entirely. This includes in particular any locking
mechanisms connected with the door lock. In addition,
check that the door is in a flawless mechanical condition,
so that it can be easily operated by hand and allows
itself to open and close properly (EN 12604).

Reversing limit
The reversing limit separates the area between the
returning or stopping of the door when the force is
cut-off.
Distance-learning cycle
During a learning cycle the necessary distances are
learned.
Advance warning phase
The time between the travel command and the start
of travel.

3.1

Required clearance for installing the operator

The clearance between the highest point of the door and
the ceiling (also when the door is opening) must be at
least 30 mm (see figure 1.1a/1.1b ). Please check these
dimensions! On a sectional door the mechanical latch
must be completely dismantled (see figure 1.2a/1.3a ).

3.1.1 Before installing the boom

Factory reset
Resetting the learned values to the ex factory setting.

PREPARING FOR INSTALLATION

Before installing the operator and in the interests of
personal safety, make sure that any necessary repairs to
the door are carried out by a qualified service engineer.
Only correct fitting and maintenance in compliance with
the instructions by a competent / specialist company
or a competent / qualified person ensures safe and
flawless operation of the system.
The specialist carrying out the work must ensure that
installation is conducted in compliance with the
prevailing national regulations on occupational safety
and those governing the operation of electrical
equipment. In the process, the relevant national
guidelines must be observed.

Note
Before mounting the boom to the lintel or ceiling, push the
carriage in the engaged state (see section 3.1.4) approx.
20 cm from the CLOSE end-of-travel position into the OPEN
end-of-travel position. It is no longer possible to do this with
the carriage engaged, once the limit stops and the operator
have been installed (see fig. 2.1 ).

3.1.2 Boom operating modes

The boom allows two different operating modes:
3.1.3 Manual operation (see figure 4 )
The carriage is disengaged from the belt lock; i.e. the
door is not directly connected to the operator enabling
the door to be moved by hand. To disengage the carriage,
the rope of the mechanical release must be pulled.

10.2007 TR10A036-C RE

33

ENGLISH
ATTENTION
If in countries in which the European Standard
EN 13241-1 must be complied with, the garage
door operator is retrofitted by a specialist to a
Hrmann sectional door without spring breakage
safety device (Series 30), the responsible installer
must also install a retrofit kit to the carriage.
This kit comprises a screw to secure the carriage
against inadvertent disengagement and a new
pull rope sign, showing how to use the kit and
carriage in the two boom operating modes.

3.1.4 Automatic operation (see figure 6 )

The belt lock is engaged in the carriage, i.e. the door
and the operator are connected to each other, thereby
allowing power operation of the door.
To prepare the carriage for engagement, the green button
must be pressed. The door must be allowed to travel in
the direction of the carriage until the belt lock engages
into it.
CAUTION
Do not insert fingers into the boom while the
door is moving Risk of trapped fingers!

3.2

Note
If you are unable to push the door manually into the desired
OPEN or CLOSE end-of-travel positions, this indicates that
the door mechanics are too sluggish to be used with the
garage door operator and must therefore be checked
(see section 1.1.2)!

3.2.3 Tensioning the toothed belt

The toothed belt of the boom is already set at the factory
for optimum tension. During the starting and braking
phases of large doors it can happen that the belt hangs
out of the boom profile temporarily. This, however, is of
no technical disadvantage nor does it have any negative
effect on the operator's function and service life.
3.2.4 Establishing the door's end-of-travel positions by
installing the limit stops (see figure 5.1 )
1) Insert the limit stop for the OPEN end-of-travel position
loosely into the boom between the carriage and the
drive unit and after installing the door link push the
door by hand into the OPEN end-of-travel position.
In doing so, the limit stop is pushed into the correct
position. Then fix the limit stop for the OPEN end-oftravel position.
Note
If in the OPEN end-of-travel position the door does not
reach the full passage height, the limit stop can be removed
so that the integrated limit stop (in the operator head) is
used.

Installing the garage door operator

ATTENTION
When installing the operator, the pull rope must
be removed (see figure 1.2a )

2) Insert the limit stop for the CLOSE end-of-travel

position loosely into the boom between the carriage
and the door (see figure 5.2 ) and push the door by
hand into the CLOSE end-of-travel position. In doing
so, the limit stop is pushed close to its correct position.
When the CLOSE end-of-travel position has been
reached, move the limit stop approx. 1 cm further
towards the CLOSE end-of-travel position, then fix
it in place (see figure 5.2 ).

Note
Always cover over the operator before drilling, since drilling
dust and shavings can lead to malfunctions.

3.2.1 Centrally positioned lock on a sectional door

For sectional doors with a centrally positioned lock/handle,
fit the lintel bracket and the door link bracket off-centre
(see figure 1a ).
3.2.2 Off-centred reinforcement profile on a sectional
door
In the case of an off-centred reinforcement profile on a
sectional door, fit the door link bracket to the nearest
reinforcement profile on the left or right (see figure 1.5a ).
Note
Contrary to the illustrated section, for timber doors use
5 x 35 wood screws from the pack of screws supplied
with the door (3 mm drill hole).
The mechanical locks and latches on the up-and-over
door must be put out of operation (see figure 1.3a ).
On the door models not listed here, the catches and
latching mechanisms must be immobilized on site
(see figure 1.2b/1.3b/1.4b ).
Note
Contrary to the illustrated section (see figures 1.5b/1.6b ),
for doors with an ornamental wrought iron handle attach
the lintel bracket and door link bracket off-centre.

3.3

Electrical connection
Notes on work involving electrics and electronics
ATTENTION
The following points apply to all work
involving electrics / electronics:

- Electrical connections may only be made by a

qualified electrician!
- On-site electrical installation must comply with
the relevant safety regulations (230/240 V AC,
50/60 Hz)!
- Before working on the operator, always unplug
from the mains first!
- External voltage at any terminals of the control
system will completely destroy the electronics!
To avoid malfunctions, ensure that the control
cables of the operator (24 V DC) are laid in an
installation system separate to the other supply
lines (230 V AC)!

For N80 doors with timber infill, the lower holes in the lintel

3.3.1 Connecting additional components
In order to connect additional components, the flap of the
operator cover must be opened (see figure 8 ). The terminals to which the radio receiver or additional components
(such as floating internal and external push-button units,
OFF-switches or a wicket door contact as well as safety
devices such as photocells) are connected, carry a safe
low voltage of max. 30 V DC only.
All the terminals can be multiple-assigned, however, max.
1 x 2.5 mm2 (see figure 9 ). Always pull out the mains
plug before connecting.

springs fitted etc.), then the data must be deleted and the
operator must repeat the learning process.
Note
Before initial operation, check that all the connecting leads
are correctly attached to the connecting terminals.
4.1

Preparation
The disengaged carriage must be prepared for engagement by pressing the green button on the carriage
(see figure 6). The door must be moved manually until
the carriage engages into the belt lock.
insert the mains plug
the operator light flashes twice (see figure 18 ).

4.2

Deleting the door data

In the ex-factory state, the door data is deleted, so the
operator is ready for the learning process immediately. In
the case of a re-installed operator, the door data must first
be deleted.
If it is necessary for the operator to repeat the learning
process, the door data can be deleted as follows
(see figure 17 ):
1. Unplug from the mains.
2. Press the transparent button in the housing and keep
it depressed.
3. Re-insert the mains plug and keep the above-mentioned
button depressed until the operator light flashes once.
The door data has been deleted. You can now proceed
with the learning process.

4.3

Learning cycles

Note
The voltage of approx. + 24 V available at the connecting
terminals cannot be used to supply power to a light!
3.3.2 Connecting external IMPULSE buttons to start or
stop door travel cycles
One or more buttons with closer contacts (floating),
e.g. internal push-button units, key switches, can be
connected in parallel (see figure 10/11 ).
3.3.3 Connecting an additional external radio receiver*
In addition to or in place of an integral radio module (see
section 4.5.2), an external radio receiver can be connected for the impulse function. The receiver plug is inserted
into the corresponding module slot (see figure 12 ).
3.3.4 Connecting a 2-wire photocell*
2-wire photocells must be connected as shown in
figure 13 .
Note
When installing a photocell, ensure that the transmitter
and receiver housing are mounted as close to the floor as
possible see instructions supplied with the photocell.
3.3.5 Connecting a wicket door contact*
Connecting a self-monitoring wicket door contact (must
be with forced opening). Wicket door contacts must be
connected as shown in figure 14 .
Note
By opening the contact any possible travel cycles are
immediately halted and permanently prevented.
3.3.6 Connecting the options relay PR 1*
The options relay PR1 can be used for CLOSE end-oftravel signalling and the light control. Connection as
shown in figure 15 .
3.3.7 Emergency accumulator*
To be able to operate the door in the event of a power
failure, an optional emergency accumulator can be connected (see figure 21 ). In the event of a power failure,
change over to accumulator operation takes place automatically. During accumulator-powered operation, the
operator light remains switched off.

Note
The operator light flashes throughout the entire learning
process.
Press the transparent push-button in the operator cover
(see figure 18 ). A reference cycle in the opening direction
is carried out up to the end stop. The operator stays at
the OPEN end-of-travel position.
The next travel impulse causes the following steps to be
automatically carried out:
Learning the length of the door: a distance-learning
cycle in the CLOSE direction up to the limit stop at
decreasing speed.
A travel cycle in the OPEN direction
Learning the forces: a force-learning cycle in the
CLOSE direction at normal speed
A travel cycle in the OPEN direction
After the operator has performed the learning cycles, it
stays at the OPEN position with the operator light ON.
The operator has now completed the learning
process and is ready for operation.
Note
If the operator stalls with the operator light flashing or fails
to reach the limit stops, the maximum forces have been set
too low and must be re-adjusted (see section 4.4). A further
travel impulse starts the entire learning process afresh.

PUTTING THE OPERATOR INTO SERVICE

General notes
The operator features a memory (fail-safe even in the
event of a power failure) where the door-specific data
(distance of travel, forces necessary for door movement
etc.) acquired during the learning process is stored and
updated during subsequent travel cycles. This data
applies to this particular door only. If another door is being
used or if the running action of the door has greatly
changed (e.g. limit stops subsequently adjusted or new

10.2007 TR10A036-C RE

Note
If the OPEN limit stop has not been reached, then the
OPEN maximum force is set too low and must be increased.
(see section 4.4). After increasing the OPEN maximum force
(max. 1/8th rotation per setting attempt!), press the
transparent button to allow the door to travel to the CLOSE
end-of-travel position. Stop the door closing before it reaches
the CLOSE end-of-travel position by pressing the button
again. Then operate the door to travel to the OPEN position.

* Accessory, not part of the standard equipment!

35

ENGLISH
Note
If the CLOSE limit stop has not been reached, then the
CLOSE maximum force is set too low and must be increased
(see section 4.4). After increasing the maximum CLOSE
force (max. 1/8th rotation per adjustment attempt!),
delete the door data (see section 4.2) and repeat the
learning process.

Note
One button on the hand transmitter must be programmed
for the operator's integral receiver. The distance between the
hand transmitter and the operator should be at least 1 m.
Programming the hand transmitter buttons
Briefly press button P on the operator cover. The LED,
visible through the transparent push-button, starts to
flash. During this time the desired hand transmitter button
can be registered. To do this, press the hand transmitter
button until the LED flashes rapidly. Release the hand
transmitter button - this is now stored in the operator
(see figure 20 ).

Note
Check the learned force limit by following the corresponding
safety instructions provided in section 4.4!
The learning process can be interrupted at any time by
a travel impulse. A further travel impulse starts the entire
learning process afresh.
4.4

Setting the forces

The required forces for opening and closing the door
which were learned and stored during the learning process are updated also during the subsequent travel
cycles. That's why in the event that the running action of
the door gets increasingly sluggish (e.g. spring tension
slackens) it is important for safety reasons that these
values do not reset themselves indefinitely, as any
necessary manual operation of the door could otherwise
pose a possible safety risk (e.g. door could drop down).
That's why the maximum forces available for opening and
closing the door are pre-set at the factory (potentiometer
at intermediate setting) but these can be increased if
needed.

4.5.2 Connecting an external radio receiver*

In place of an integral radio module, an external radio
receiver can be used for the "impulse" function. The
plug of this receiver is inserted into the corresponding
module slot (see figure 12 ).
In order to put the external radio receiver into service, it
is essential to delete the data of the integral radio module.
4.5.3 Deleting the data of the internal radio module
Press button P in the operator cover and keep it depressed. The LED, visible through the transparent button
in the operator cover, flashes and signals that the unit is
ready for the deletion process. The LED now flashes more
rapidly. Afterwards, the data of the programmed hand
transmitter buttons are deleted.
Note
Initial function checks as well as programming or extending
the remote control should always take place from inside the
garage.

Note
The maximum forces set at the potentiometer have a slight
effect on the sensitivity of the force limit, since the forces
actually needed were stored during the learning process.
The factory-set forces are suitable for the operation of
standard doors.

CAUTION
Hand transmitters should be kept out of the
reach of children and may only be used by persons who have been shown how to operate the
remote-controlled door system. It is a general
principle that the hand transmitter should only
be operated within sight of the door. Never drive
or walk through a door opening unless the door
has reached the OPEN end-of-travel position.

For setting the maximum opening and closing forces, a

potentiometer is available for each direction, accessible
on removing the operator cover and marked P1 and P2
(see figure 19). The maximum force in the OPEN direction
can be set via potentiometer P1; while the maximum
force in the CLOSE direction can be set via potentiometer
P2. In doing so, turning clockwise increases the forces,
while turning anticlockwise reduces the forces.
Note
It is only necessary to increase the maximum forces preset
at the factory (potentiometer at intermediate setting) should
the need arise during the learning process (see section 4.3).

CAUTION: Danger!
The force should not be set higher than
necessary, as this can cause injury to persons
and/or damage to the door.
Setting the potentiometer too high can
result in serious injury!

4.5

Radio receiver

4.5.1 Integral radio module

With an integral radio module, a maximum of 6 different
hand transmitters can be programmed for the "impulse"
function (OPEN - STOP - CLOSE - STOP). If more than
6 hand transmitters are programmed, the first hand
transmitter programmed is automatically deleted.
36

4.6

Setting the DIL-switches

The DIL-switches A to F (accessible on opening the flap
in the operator cover, see figure 8 ) should be set in
accordance with the national requirements, the required
safety devices and the given local conditions.
The DIL-switch settings may only be altered when the
operator is at rest and the advance warning phase /
automatic timer is inactive.

Note
The maintenance data is reset by repeating the learning
process (see section 4.3).

Only ever actuate the garage door operator provided

you have full view of the movement range of the door.
Wait until the door has come to a complete standstill
before entering the movement range of the door! Before
driving in or out of the garage, always check that the
door has opened fully.

USING THE GARAGE DOOR

ATTENTION
Never hang bodily from the pull rope with
knob!

Note
All persons using the door system should be shown how
to operate the garage door operator properly and safely.
Demonstrate and test the mechanical release as well as the
safety return. To do this, halt the closing door by grasping
it with both hands. The door system should gently cut out
and initiate the safety return. The same should happen
during the opening cycle, i.e. the door system gently cuts
out and the door comes to a halt.

5.1

Normal operation
In the normal operation mode the garage door operator
works exclusively by impulse sequential control, whereby
it makes no difference whether an external push-button,
a programmed hand transmitter button or the transparent
push-button is pressed:
1. Impulse: door travels towards an end-of-travel
position
2. Impulse: door stops
3. Impulse: door travels in the opposite direction
4. Impulse: door stops
5. Impulse: door travels towards the end-of-travel
position selected with the 1st impulse
etc.
The operator lighting comes on when the door starts
to move and automatically goes out when the cycle is
completed.

37

ENGLISH
5.2

Power failure backup with the emergency

accumulator*
To be able to operate the door in the event of a power
failure, an optional emergency accumulator can be connected (see figure 21 ). In the event of a power failure,
the change over to accumulator operation takes place
automatically. Throughout accumulator-powered operation, the operator lighting stays off.

Note
The local conditions may affect the range of the remote
control!

ATTENTION
Hand transmitters must be kept out of the reach
of children and may only be used by persons
familiarized with the function of a remotecontrolled door system. Only operate the hand
transmitter within sight of the door. Doorways
of remote-controlled door systems may only be
passed through provided the garage door is at the
OPEN end-of-travel position, i.e. has opened fully.

Note
Only the specifically designated emergency accumulator
with integral charging circuit may be used.

5.3

Operation after actuating the mechanical release

If the mechanical release was actuated, e.g. due to a
power failure, the carriage must be re-engaged in the
belt lock before normal operation can be resumed:
Move the operator until the belt lock in the boom is
well accessible for the carriage, and then stop the
operator.
Press the green button on the carriage (see figure 6 ).
Move the door manually until the carriage re-engages
in the belt lock.
Carry out several uninterrupted travel cycles to check
whether the door has fully reached its closed position
and whether it has also fully opened (the carriage
comes to a halt shortly before the OPEN limit stop).
The operator is now ready to resume normal operation.

Note
The hand transmitter must be protected against:
direct exposure to sunlight
(permitted ambient temperature: -20 C up to +60 C)
humidity
dust
Non-observance may affect the function of the hand
transmitter!

6.2

Note
The function of the mechanical release should be checked
once a month. The pull rope with knob may only be
actuated when the door is closed, otherwise, in the case
of weak, broken or defective springs or due to an inadequate counterbalance, there is a risk that the door could
close too quickly.

The code place of each button on the hand transmitter

can be reset to the original factory code or programmed
with a new code.
1. Open the battery compartment cover - a small button
on the circuit board can be accessed.
2. Take a blunt object and gently press and hold button .
Note:
Do not use any sharp objects. Excessive pressure can
destroy the button.

CAUTION
Never hang bodily from the pull rope
with knob!

3. Press and hold the button that you wish to code.

The transmitter LED flashes slowly.
4. If the small button is held down until the slow flashing
phase ends, the control button will then be re-coded
with the original factory code and the LED starts
flashing rapidly.
5. Close the battery compartment cover.
6. Re-programme the receivers.

Important notes on using the hand transmitter

Only genuine parts must be used for putting the remote
control into service!
ATTENTION
If the garage does not have a separate access
door, any changes or additional programming
must be done from inside the garage. When
programming (menu 2) and extending the remote
control, it must be ensured that neither persons
nor equipment are located within the doors
range of travel. On completing the programming
or extension of the remote control, the functions
must be checked.

38

Restoring the factory code (see fig. 22 )

Note:
The following steps are only necessary in the event of
erroneous extension or learning procedures.

CHANGING THE LIGHT BULB

When changing the light bulb, the bulb must be cold
and the door closed.
Pull out the mains plug
Change the bulb 24 V / 10 W B(a) 15 s (see figure 23 )
Re-insert the mains plug
The operator lighting flashes four times

SIGNALS FROM OPERATOR LIGHTING WHEN

MAINS POWER ON
