CAUTION: If your garage has no pedestrian entrance door, an emergency access device should be installed.
This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.
For ADDITIONAL SAFETY protection we STRONGLY recommend the fi tting of a Photo Electric (PE)
Beam. In most countries, PE Beams are mandatory on all garage doors fi tted with automatic openers. 
For a small additional outlay, Automatic Technology recommends that Photo Electric Beams be 
installed with the automatic opener ensuring additional safety and peace of mind.
DO NOT operate the opener unless the garage door is in full view and free from objects such 
as cars and children/people. Make sure that the door has fi nished moving before entering or 
leaving the garage.
DO NOT operate the opener when children/people are near the door. Children must be 
supervised at all times when the EasyRoller® is in use. Serious personal injury and/or 
property damage can result from failure to follow this warning.
DO NOT allow children to operate the EasyRoller®. Serious personal injury and/
or property damage can result from failure to follow this warning.
Regularly check to make sure that the Safety Obstruction Force is working 
correctly, and is tested and set as per page 17 of this manual. Failure to 
follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury and/or 
property damage. This test must be repeated at regular intervals and the 
necessary adjustments made as required.
Doors requiring over 400N of force to move must have PE Beams 
installed.
DO NOT disengage the door opener to manual operation with 
children/people or any other objects including motor vehicles 
within the doorway.
The door opener is not intended for use by young children 
or infi rm persons without adequate supervision. Children 
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play 
with the remote transmitters or the opener.
Keep hands and loose clothing clear of the door 
and door opener at all times.
WARNING: It is vital for the safety of persons to follow
all instructions. Failure to comply with the following
Safety Instructions may result in serious personal injury
and/or property damage.

The unit should be installed so that it is protected from the elements. It should not be exposed to water or rain. 
It is not to be immersed in water or sprayed directly by a hose or other device.
The garage door must be well balanced. Sticking or binding doors must be repaired by a qualifi ed garage 
door installer prior to installation of the opener.
Frequently examine the installation, in particular cables, springs and mountings for signs of wear, damage
or imbalance. DO NOT use if repair or adjustment is needed since a fault in the installation or an
incorrectly balanced door may cause injury. DO NOT attempt to repair the door yourself as hardware 
is under extreme tension.
Remove or disengage all garage door locks and mechanisms prior to installation of the opener.
Connect the opener to a properly earthed general purpose 220V mains power outlet installed 
by a qualifi ed electrical contractor.
Disconnect the power cord from mains power before making any repairs or removing 
covers. Only experienced service personnel should remove covers from the opener.
When using Auto-Close mode, a photo electric beam must be fi tted correctly and 
tested for operation at regular intervals. Extreme caution is recommended when 
using Auto-Close mode. All safety rules must be followed.
In order for the EasyRoller® to sense an object obstructing the door way, 
some force must be exerted on the object. As a result the object, door and/
or person may suffer damage or injury.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an 
Automatic Technology service agent or suitably qualifi ed person.
Make sure that the door is fully open before driving in or out of the 
garage and fully closed before leaving the driveway.
Make sure that remote transmitters are kept out of reach of 
children.
Install the (optional) wall switch or (optional) wall 
mounted transmitter in a location where the garage 
door is visible, but out of the reach of children at a 
height of at least 1.8 metres from the fl oor.

Operation
 
Auto courtesy light
 
TrioCode™ Code Hopping Technology
 
ISS (intelligent safety obstruction system)
 
ALPS (Automatic Limits Positioning System)
 
Toopenor close the door simply press a button on a TrioCode™ handheld 
transmitter, a wall mounted transmitter, or optional wall switch for two seconds.
During open and close cycles the door can be stopped by pressing the button
again. The next actuation will move the door in the opposite direction.
ALPS does away with manual adjustmentofthedoor’slimits position using mechanical 
parts, such as cams and microswitches. During installation the handheld transmitter can be
programmed to set the door limits positions.
The courtesy lightcomeson automatically for three minutes whenever the door is activated. The light can also 
be operated independently of the door by coding a dedicated button on a transmitter.
Whilethe door is performing a close cycle, should it hit an obstacle or be restricted in some manner, it 
will automatically reverse. The amount of force the door should encounter before reversing is automatically
adjusted by the doors control system during the initial installation of the automatic door opener. The door will
also stop if restricted whilst opening. The Safety Obstruction Force should be checked monthly.
Everytime aTrioCode™ transmitteris used a new security code is randomly 
generated from over 4.29 billion possibilities. This greatly enhances the security of
the system and makes “code grabbing” a thing of the past
These transmitters also overcome interference issues by simultaneously sending a
signal over three slightly different frequencies. Even if two of the three signals are
jammed, the system will still work.

so that the family pet can enter and exit the garage at any time. You may also wish to 
open the door to a height suitable for pedestrian access.
The opener can be fi ttedwith a SmartSolar™ or Battery Backup kit for operation in 
the event of a power outage, or where mains power access is not available. NOTE: If 
the door is the only entrance to the garage, and a battery backup kit is not fi tted, 
a keyed cable release should be fi tted externally to the garage.

Using your reference marks as a guide,
sit the opener on the door mounting
bracket and secure with the opener’s
U-
bolt and saddle and tighten fi rmly.
Adjust the door position (if necessary)
on the brackets so that the door feeds
smoothly into the guides. Make sure
that the centre of the door doesn’t hit
the lintel and that the curtain is not
pushed forward hard into the guide.
ii.
e.
Remove the support and safety ropes (Fig. 10).
IMPORTANT NOTE - If the manual release
handle 
is more than 1.8 metres from fl oor level when
the

PE Beams 
Step 14 - Fitting the PE Beams (optional)
WARNING: When using Auto-Close Mode and PE
Beams, the doorway must be clear of all
obstructions and persons at all times. The location
of the beams and manner in which it is installed
might not give safety protection at all times. Check
to make sure that the height of the beam and type
used give maximum protection possible.
WARNING: Install the PE Beams as per diagram in
(Fig. 28). Tampering with PE Beams could result
in serious personal injury and/or property damage
and will void the warranty.
WARNING! Photo Electric Beams must be installed
if the closing force at the bottom edge of the door
exceeds 400N (40kg).
c.
a.
b.
Affi x the PE Beams in a strategic location within
the doorway. We recommend 150mm above the
fl oor 
level and as close as possible to the door
opening, inside the garage. 
Connect the wires from the PE wiring harness to
the terminal block (Fig. 28). The wiring diagram
is for Model PE2 (Order Code 90214).
Make sure that you are using the correct resistor
i.e. 2k2 ohms (Red Red Red Gold) and
connecting to number 2 (two) and 4 (four)
terminal on the PE- 2 receiver. Align the beams
correctly. Follow the manual supplied with the
PE Beams.

e.
a.
b
.
d.
Auto-Close mode is a function that automatically
closes the door a preset time after the PE Beams
recognise that a vehicle has left the garage.
The Auto-Close timer only starts after the PE
Beam’s path is broken. If the PE path is not
broken, the door will remain open until the path is
broken. If the opener incurs a physical obstruction
(i.e. not from the PE Beams) while closing the
door, it will re-open and not Auto- Close until the
PE Beam’s path is broken again.
Hold down the AUTO CLOSE TIME button
(Fig. 29). While holding in the AUTO CLOSE
TIME button, press the OPEN button - each
press will add one second to the Auto-Close
delay.
To decrease the delay time follow Step 15.1(a)
and press the CLOSE button - each press will
deduct one second from the Auto-Close delay.
Press the OPERATE button or transmitter to
open the door. When the door is fully opened
the 
OPEN LIMIT LED will fl ash to indicate that
Auto-
Close mode is operational. 
Break the PE Beam’s path momentarily to
initialise Auto-Close. When the door reaches
the fully opened position, the door will pause
for the set Auto-Close time and then close.

interference such as to greatly reduce the range of the transmitter. In such an instance, please contact your
Automatic Technology dealer for an alternative frequency replacement kit. As this is not a warrantable situation
but an environmental issue, charges may apply for the change over.

Maintenance
Whilst your opener does not require any
periodic 
maintenance, the door that it is fi tted to, does. 
Your garage door is a large, heavy, moving
object and should be tested regularly to ensure
it is in good condition. A poorly maintained
door could cause fatal or serious injuries or
serious damage to property.

CAUTION: If your garage has no pedestrian entrance door, an emergency access device should be installed.
This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.
For ADDITIONAL SAFETY protection we STRONGLY recommend the fi tting of a Photo Electric (PE)
Beam. In most countries, PE Beams are mandatory on all garage doors fi tted with automatic openers. 
For a small additional outlay, Automatic Technology recommends that Photo Electric Beams be 
installed with the automatic opener ensuring additional safety and peace of mind.
DO NOT operate the opener unless the garage door is in full view and free from objects such 
as cars and children/people. Make sure that the door has fi nished moving before entering or 
leaving the garage.
DO NOT operate the opener when children/people are near the door. Children must be 
supervised at all times when the EasyRoller® is in use. Serious personal injury and/or 
property damage can result from failure to follow this warning.
DO NOT allow children to operate the EasyRoller®. Serious personal injury and/or 
property damage can result from failure to follow this warning.
Photo Electric Beams must be installed where the closing force as measured 
on the bottom of the door is more than 400N (40kgf).
Regularly check to make sure that the Safety Obstruction Force is working 
correctly, and is tested and set as per page 17 of this manual. Failure to 
follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury and/or 
property damage. This test must be repeated at regular intervals and 
the necessary adjustments made as required.
DO NOT disengage the door opener to manual operation with 
children/people or any other objects including motor vehicles 
within the doorway.
The door opener is not intended for use by young children 
or infi rm persons without adequate supervision. Children 
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play 
with the remote transmitters or the opener.
Keep hands and loose clothing clear of the door 
and door opener at all times.
WARNING: It is vital for the safety of persons to follow
all instructions. Failure to comply with the following
Safety Instructions may result in serious personal injury
and/or property damage.

The unit should be installed so that it is protected from the elements. It should not be exposed to water or rain. 
It is not to be immersed in water or sprayed directly by a hose or other device.
The garage door must be well balanced. Sticking or binding doors must be repaired by a qualifi ed garage 
door installer prior to installation of the opener.
Frequently examine the installation, in particular cables, springs and mountings for signs of wear, damage
or imbalance. DO NOT use if repair or adjustment is needed since a fault in the installation or an
incorrectly balanced door may cause injury. DO NOT attempt to repair the door yourself as hardware 
is under extreme tension.
Remove or disengage all garage door locks and mechanisms prior to installation of the opener.
Connect the opener to a properly earthed general purpose 220V mains power outlet installed 
by a qualifi ed electrical contractor.
Disconnect the power cord from mains power before making any repairs or removing 
covers. Only experienced service personnel should remove covers from the opener.
When using Auto-Close mode, a photo electric beam must be fi tted correctly and 
tested for operation at regular intervals. Extreme caution is recommended when 
using Auto-Close mode. All safety rules must be followed.
In order for the EasyRoller® to sense an object obstructing the door way, 
some force must be exerted on the object. As a result the object, door and/
or person may suffer damage or injury.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an 
Automatic Technology service agent or suitably qualifi ed person.
Make sure that the door is fully open before driving in or out of the 
garage and fully closed before leaving the driveway.
Make sure that remote transmitters are kept out of reach of 
children.
Install the (optional) wall switch or (optional) wall 
mounted transmitter in a location where the garage 
door is visible, but out of the reach of children at a 
height of at least 1.5 metres from the fl oor.

TrioCode™ Code Hopping Technology
 
ISS (intelligent safety obstruction system)
 
ALPS (Automatic Limits Positioning System)
 
Toopenor close the door simply press a button on a TrioCode™ handheld 
transmitter, a wall mounted transmitter, or optional wall switch for two seconds.
During open and close cycles the door can be stopped by pressing the button
again. The next actuation will move the door in the opposite direction.
ALPS does away with manual adjustmentofthedoor’slimits position using mechanical 
parts, such as cams and microswitches. During installation the handheld transmitter can be
programmed to set the door limits positions.
The courtesy lightcomeson automatically for three minutes whenever the door is activated. The light can also 
be operated independently of the door by coding a dedicated button on a transmitter.
Whilethe door is performing a close cycle, should it hit an obstacle or be restricted in some manner, it 
will automatically reverse. The amount of force the door should encounter before reversing is automatically
adjusted by the doors control system during the initial installation of the automatic door opener. The door will
also stop if restricted whilst opening. The Safety Obstruction Force should be checked monthly.
Everytime aTrioCode™ transmitteris used, a new security code is randomly 
generated from over 4.29 billion possibilities. This greatly enhances the security of
the system and makes “code grabbing” a thing of the past.
These transmitters also overcome interference issues by simultaneously sending a
signal over three slightly different frequencies. Even if two of the three signals are
jammed, the system will still work.

The opener can be programmed to automatically close after an open cycle. The Auto-Close
time is adjustable. It is compulsory to install a PE Beam if this mode is selected, otherwise the 
door may cause personal injury or damage to property.
Ahandheld transmitter can be programmed to lock and unlock all other 
transmitters that have been programmed into the openers’ memory. The vacation 
mode can be used when the door is left idle for long periods of time.
The transmitter can be programmed to open the door to an adjustable partial height
so that the family pet can enter and exit the garage at any time. You may also wish to 
open the door to a height suitable for pedestrian access.
The opener can be fi ttedwith a SmartSolar™ or Battery Backup kit for operation in 
the event of a power outage, or where mains power access is not available. NOTE: If 
the door is the only entrance to the garage, and a battery backup kit is not fi tted, 
a keyed cable release should be fi tted externally to the garage.

hand.
Slide the opener over the door axle and into
the drum of the door (Fig. 09).
Ensure the internal gear is pushed in as far as
possible (without interfering with the door
curtain) and that one of the door drum’s wheel
spokes is completely between the opener’s
drive forks. Re-attach the door bracket using
your reference marks as a guide and tighten
the bolts. Ensure that the slots in the
mounting bracket of the opener align with the
slots in the door bracket, otherwise the door
bracket may have to be relocated (Fig. 10).
b.
c.
d.
NOTE: If the bracket cannot be relocated, the opener 
may be fi tted onto the axle using the opener’s saddle 
and U-bolt as follows:
i.
Using your reference marks as a guide,
sit the opener on the door mounting
bracket and secure with the opener’s
U-
bolt and saddle and tighten fi rmly.
Adjust the door position (if necessary)
on the brackets so that the door feeds
smoothly into the guides. Make sure
that the centre of the door doesn’t hit
the lintel and that the curtain is not
pushed forward hard into the guide.
ii.
e.
Remove the support and safety ropes (Fig. 10).
IMPORTANT NOTE - If the manual release
handle 
is more than 1.8 metres from fl oor level when
the 
opener is installed, extend the handle to a
height less than 1.8 metres.

Photo Electric (PE) Beams
 
Fitting Photo Electric (PE) Beams 
Aphoto electric(PE) Beams extends across the door 
opening. This photo electric (PE) Beams is designed to
detect an obstruction while the door is closing and to
send a signal to the door opener to reverse or stop the
doormovement.
a.
Attach the mounting bracket (4)to adjustment
bracket (3) with the pan head screw (6) (supplied).
(Fig. 28)
Attach the PE 2000TS bracket (2) to PE beam
transmitter (IR-200TS-TX) with four taptite screws
(m3x5) and attach the other side to adjustment
bracket (3) with the pan head screw (6) (supplied).
Repeat steps a and b to assemble the PE Beam
receiver ( IR-200TS-RX). 
b.
c.
Locate the Photo Electric (PE) Beams in a strategic
location in the doorway. Automatic Technology
recommend that the sensor is placed 100 mm above the 
fl oor level and as close as possible to the door opening. 
Connect as per the wiring diagram (Fig. 30). 
Use 2.2 kilo ohm resistor with the colour code red, red,
red and gold on the PE Beams receiver between the 
V- and NC terminals as shown in (Fig. 30).
a.
Power up the PE Beams. The green LED on the
transmitter and red LED on the receiver should turn
ON to indicate power is present.
If the receiver is connected to power and the red
LED is on while the green LED is on, the transmitter
and receiver are not aligned.
Make horizontal and/or vertical adjustment on the
transmitter and/or receiver until the red LED turns
off on the receiver, indicating alignment. 
b.
c.
NOTE: The height of the beam installation must be
chosen in such a manner that it suits the application
and environmental conditions and provides maximum
safety protection.
WARNING: When using PE Beams, the doorway
must be clear of all obstructions and persons at all
times. The location of the beams and manner in
which it is installed might not give safety
protection at all times. Check to make sure that
the height of the beam and type used give
maximum protection possible.
WARNING: Install the PE Beams as per diagram in
(Fig. 30). Tampering with the PE Beams could
result in serious personal injury and/or property
damage and will void the warranty.

Auto-Close mode is a function that automatically
closes the door a preset time after the PE Beams
recognise that a vehicle has left the garage.
The Auto-Close timer only starts after the PE
Beam’s path is broken. If the PE path is not
broken, the door will remain open until the path is
broken. If the opener incurs a physical obstruction
(i.e. not from the PE Beams) while closing the
door, it will re-open and not Auto-Close until the
PE Beam’s path is broken again.
Hold down the AUTO CLOSE TIME button
(Fig. 31). While holding in the AUTO CLOSE
TIME button, press the OPEN button - each

Maintenance
Whilst your opener does not require any
periodic 
maintenance, the door that it is fi tted to, does. 
Your garage door is a large, heavy, moving
object and should be tested regularly to ensure
it is in good condition. A poorly maintained
door could cause fatal or serious injuries or
serious damage to property.
Service Record
 
Yearly
Automatic Technology suggests you contact your door
professional to perform an annual door service.
To ensure a long and trouble free life for your opener
the following is recommended:
Disengage 
the 
opener 
and 
manually
operate the door: The door must be
smooth to operate by hand. An operating
force on the bottom rail should not exceed
150N (15kg) force.
Each month check that the opener reverses
when the door contacts a 40mm high
object 
placed on the fl oor (AS3350). 
•
•
NOTE: If the door does not operate smoothly, call
your door professional.
Recordanymaintenance in the following table to assist in any warranty service.

Signature
Invoice No.
Amount
CAUTION: Frequently examine door, particularly
cables, springs and mountings for signs of wear,
damage or imbalance. Do not use if repair 
or adjustment is needed since a fault in the
installation or an incorrectly balanced door may
cause injury. (AS3350)
Adjustments should only be carried out by
experienced persons, as this function can 
be dangerous if not performed under strict safety
procedures.
WARNING! Failure to maintain your garage 
door may void the warranty on your garage door
opener.

CAUTION: If your garage has no pedestrian entrance door, an emergency access device should be installed.
This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.
For ADDITIONAL SAFETY protection we STRONGLY recommend the fi tting of a Photo Electric (PE)
Beam. In most countries, PE Beams are mandatory on all garage doors fi tted with automatic openers. 
For a small additional outlay, Automatic Technology recommends that Photo Electric Beams be 
installed with the automatic opener ensuring additional safety and peace of mind.
DO NOT operate the opener unless the garage door is in full view and free from objects such 
as cars and children/people. Make sure that the door has fi nished moving before entering or 
leaving the garage.
DO NOT operate the opener when children/people are near the door. Children must be 
supervised at all times when the EasyRoller® is in use. Serious personal injury and/or 
property damage can result from failure to follow this warning.
DO NOT allow children to operate the EasyRoller®. Serious personal injury and/or 
property damage can result from failure to follow this warning.
Regularly check to make sure that the Safety Obstruction Force is working 
correctly, and is tested and set as per page 17 of this manual. Failure to 
follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury and/or 
property damage. This test must be repeated at regular intervals and the 
necessary adjustments made as required.
Doors requiring over 400N of force to move must have PE Beams 
installed.
DO NOT disengage the door opener to manual operation with 
children/people or any other objects including motor vehicles 
within the doorway.
The door opener is not intended for use by young children 
or infi rm persons without adequate supervision. Children 
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play 
with the remote transmitters or the opener.
Keep hands and loose clothing clear of the door 
and door opener at all times.
WARNING: It is vital for the safety of persons to follow
all instructions. Failure to comply with the following
Safety Instructions may result in serious personal injury

The unit should be installed so that it is protected from the elements. It should not be exposed to water or rain. 
It is not to be immersed in water or sprayed directly by a hose or other device.
The garage door must be well balanced. Sticking or binding doors must be repaired by a qualifi ed garage 
door installer prior to installation of the opener.
Frequently examine the installation, in particular cables, springs and mountings for signs of wear, damage
or imbalance. DO NOT use if repair or adjustment is needed since a fault in the installation or an
incorrectly balanced door may cause injury. DO NOT attempt to repair the door yourself as hardware 
is under extreme tension.
Remove or disengage all garage door locks and mechanisms prior to installation of the opener.
Connect the opener to a properly earthed general purpose 220V mains power outlet installed 
by a qualifi ed electrical contractor.
Disconnect the power cord from mains power before making any repairs or removing 
covers. Only experienced service personnel should remove covers from the opener.
When using Auto-Close mode, a photo electric beam must be fi tted correctly and 
tested for operation at regular intervals. Extreme caution is recommended when 
using Auto-Close mode. All safety rules must be followed.
In order for the EasyRoller® to sense an object obstructing the door way, 
some force must be exerted on the object. As a result the object, door and/
or person may suffer damage or injury.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by an 
Automatic Technology service agent or suitably qualifi ed person.
Make sure that the door is fully open before driving in or out of the 
garage and fully closed before leaving the driveway.
Make sure that remote transmitters are kept out of reach of 
children.
Install the (optional) wall switch or (optional) wall 
mounted transmitter in a location where the garage 
door is visible, but out of the reach of children at a 
height of at least 1.5 metres from the fl oor.

Operation
 
Auto courtesy light
 
TrioCode™ Code Hopping Technology
 
ISS (intelligent safety obstruction system)
 
ALPS (Automatic Limits Positioning System)
 
Toopenor close the door simply press a button on a TrioCode™ handheld 
transmitter, a wall mounted transmitter, or optional wall switch for two seconds.
During open and close cycles the door can be stopped by pressing the button
again. The next actuation will move the door in the opposite direction.
ALPS does away with manual adjustmentofthedoor’slimits position using mechanical 
parts, such as cams and microswitches. During installation the handheld transmitter can be
programmed to set the door limits positions.
The courtesy lightcomeson automatically for three minutes whenever the door is activated. The light can also 
be operated independently of the door by coding a dedicated button on a transmitter.
Whilethe door is performing a close cycle, should it hit an obstacle or be restricted in some manner, it 
will automatically reverse. The amount of force the door should encounter before reversing is automatically
adjusted by the doors control system during the initial installation of the automatic door opener. The door will
also stop if restricted whilst opening. The Safety Obstruction Force should be checked monthly.
Everytime aTrioCode™ transmitteris used, a new security code is randomly 
generated from over 4.29 billion possibilities. This greatly enhances the security of
the system and makes “code grabbing” a thing of the past.
These transmitters also overcome interference issues by simultaneously sending a
signal over three slightly different frequencies. Even if two of the three signals are
jammed, the system will still work.

Photo Electric (PE) Beams
 
Fitting Photo Electric (PE) Beams 
Aphoto electric(PE) Beams extends across the door 
opening. This photo electric (PE) Beams is designed to
detect an obstruction while the door is closing and to
send a signal to the door opener to reverse or stop the
doormovement.
a.
Attach the mounting bracket (4)to adjustment
bracket (3) with the pan head screw (6) (supplied).
(Fig. 28)
Attach the PE 2000TS bracket (2) to PE beam
transmitter (IR-200TS-TX) with four taptite screws
(m3x5) and attach the other side to adjustment
bracket (3) with the pan head screw (6) (supplied).
Repeat steps a and b to assemble the PE Beam
receiver ( IR-200TS-RX). 
b.
c.
Locate the Photo Electric (PE) Beams in a strategic
location in the doorway. Automatic Technology
recommend that the sensor is placed 100 mm above the 
fl oor level and as close as possible to the door opening. 
Connect as per the wiring diagram (Fig. 30). 
Use 2.2 kilo ohm resistor with the colour code red, red,
red and gold on the PE Beams receiver between the 
V- and NC terminals as shown in (Fig. 30).
a.
Power up the PE Beams. The green LED on the
transmitter and red LED on the receiver should turn
ON to indicate power is present.
If the receiver is connected to power and the red
LED is on while the green LED is on, the transmitter
and receiver are not aligned.
Make horizontal and/or vertical adjustment on the
transmitter and/or receiver until the red LED turns
off on the receiver, indicating alignment. 
b.
c.
NOTE: The height of the beam installation must be
chosen in such a manner that it suits the application
and environmental conditions and provides maximum
safety protection.
WARNING: When using PE Beams, the doorway
must be clear of all obstructions and persons at all
times. The location of the beams and manner in
which it is installed might not give safety
protection at all times. Check to make sure that
the height of the beam and type used give
maximum protection possible.
WARNING: Install the PE Beams as per diagram in
(Fig. 30). Tampering with the PE Beams could
result in serious personal injury and/or property
damage and will void the warranty.
WARNING: PE beams must be installed if the
closing force at the bottom edge of the door
exceeds 400N (40kg force)

Auto-Close mode is a function that automatically
closes the door a preset time after the PE Beams
recognise that a vehicle has left the garage.
The Auto-Close timer only starts after the PE
Beam’s path is broken. If the PE path is not
broken, the door will remain open until the path is
broken. If the opener incurs a physical obstruction
(i.e. not from the PE Beams) while closing the
door, it will re-open and not Auto-Close until the
PE Beam’s path is broken again.
Hold down the AUTO CLOSE TIME button
(Fig. 31). While holding in the AUTO CLOSE
TIME button, press the OPEN button - each
press will add one second to the Auto-Close
delay.
To decrease the delay time follow Step 15.1(a)
and press the CLOSE button - each press will
deduct one second from the Auto-Close delay.
Press the OPERATE button or transmitter to
open the door. When the door is fully opened
the 
OPEN LIMIT LED will fl ash to indicate that
Auto-
Close mode is operational. 
Break the PE Beam’s path momentarily to
initialise Auto-Close. When the door reaches
the fully opened position, the door will pause
for the set Auto-Close time and then close.

Maintenance
Whilst your opener does not require any
periodic 
maintenance, the door that it is fi tted to, does. 
Your garage door is a large, heavy, moving
object and should be tested regularly to ensure
it is in good condition. A poorly maintained
door could cause fatal or serious injuries or
serious damage to property.
Service Record
 
Yearly
Automatic Technology suggests you contact your door
professional to perform an annual door service.
To ensure a long and trouble free life for your opener
the following is recommended:
Disengage 
the 
opener 
and 
manually
operate the door: The door must be
smooth to operate by hand. An operating
force on the bottom rail should not exceed
150N (15kg) force.
