Secure door bracket with two ¼-20 keps nuts (not 

supplied). Tighten with a 7/16” socket.

4  Slide the 5/16” x 1-3/8” clevis pin through one hole on door 

bracket; then the single hole on the curved door arm; then 
through the other hole on the door bracket. Secure the clevis 
pin with the hitch pin.

5  Insert the single hole end of the straight door arm into the 

slot in the trolley. Slide the 1-1/8” clevis pin through the 

hole and secure it with a hitch pin.

6  Flip the trolley release lever to disconnect the trolley.
7  Rotate the curved door arm upward to meet the straight 

door arm connected to the trolley. Align the two door arms 

so that the holes in both arms overlap.

Line up door arms until trolley is positioned as shown. 

Connect the arms together using two 5/16-18 x 1” bolts 

inserted in the highest and lowest matching holes, secure 

the bolts with two 5/16” keps nuts, tighten with a ½” 

socket.

11  Connect the Operator to Power Source

Cord and Outlet Connection

The operator should be connected to a grounded 

receptacle on the ceiling or near the operator head. 

If none is available which will accept the grounded 

operator plug, one should be installed by a qualified 

electrician. 

Do not use an extension cord.

1

 

Plug the operator into a grounded receptacle.

2

 

When the operator is plugged in, a click should 

sound in the operator and the light should turn on. If 

light does not turn on, check the power source and 

light bulb.

Permanent Wiring

SOME LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES REQUIRE 

PERMANENT WIRING BETWEEN THE OPERATOR 

AND THE POWER SOURCE THROUGH A CONDUIT. 

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU HAVE A LICENSED 

ELECTRICAL CONTRACTOR FOLLOW THESE STEPS 

ONLY IF PERMANENT WIRING IS REQUIRED.
1  BE SURE POWER CORD IS UNPLUGGED.

2  Cut the power cord about 2” above the strain relief 

bushing on the operator.

Remove the four side screws and bottom cover of 

operator.

4  Use pliers to remove the strain relief bushing and 

discard the bushing.

5  Remove the outer insulation from the power cord 

and strip the white, black, and green wire insulation 

back about ½”.

6  Pull white (neutral), black (hot) and green (ground) 

wires through conduit.

7 Connect the conduit to the operator with the 

appropriate termination.

8  Use wire nuts (not supplied) to connect the wires to 

the matching color wires inside operator head.

9  Secure the wires away from all moving parts with a 

zip-tie as shown in the figure.

10 Replace the operator cover and the four side screws.
11 Connect the conduit wires to the power source at 

junction box.

12 When power is applied to the operator, a click should 

sound and the light should turn on. If the light does 

not turn on, check the power source and wiring.

 WARNING 

Children operating or playing with a garage door operator can injure themselves or others. The 

garage door could cause serious injury or death. Do not allow children to operate the remote 

control(s) or the wall station. Install the wall station out of reach of children and away from all 

moving parts of the door. The door must be clearly visible from the wall station. A moving garage 

door could injure someone under it. Only activate the door when it is properly adjusted, when it can 

be seen clearly and when there are no obstructions to the door travel.

 WARNING 

Persons, particularly children, could be killed 

by a closing garage door without a properly 

installed and adjusted safety beam optical 

obstacle sensing system.

 WARNING 

To protect small children, do not install the 

safety beam higher or lower than instructed.

7  Install the Wall Station

 

NOTE:

 22 AWG 2-conductor wall station and safety 

beam wire is supplied with the operator, Use this wire 

or the installation’s pre-wiring. For additional wire, 

contact Linear PRO Access for information regarding 

the 24-pack Model HAE00009 wire and wire clip kit.

 

UL NOTE:

 All low voltage Class 2 cable used with this 

operator must be UL Listed Type CL2, CL2P, CL2R, 

or CL2X or other cable with equivalent or better 

electrical, mechanical, and flammability ratings.

1

 

It is paramount that the Smart Control Wall Station 

receives strong signal from your home’s Wi-Fi router. 

  Before you affix the Wall Station to the wall, survey 

your location to check the Wi-Fi signal. To do this, 

take a smart phone, connect it to your Wi-Fi network 

and then place your phone on the wall where you 

want to attach the Wall Station. 

  If you have 2 or 3 bars on your phone for the Wi-Fi 

network, the signal is strong and you can proceed. 

If not, use one of these options to extend your Wi-Fi 

network’s range.

  • Move your Wi-Fi router closer to the garage.
  • Purchase a Wi-Fi range extender. 
2  Strip back ½” of insulation and connect a wire to 

each of the two terminals on the back of the wall 

station. 

NOTE: Polarity is CRITICAL

 (make note to 

connect Common to Common and Wall Station to 

Wall Station).

3  Use the screws provided to mount the wall station 

near an access door at a minimum height of five feet. 

SEE IMPORTANT WARNING ABOVE!

4 For non-prewired installations, route the wire to 

the back of the operator. Use insulated staples (not 

supplied) to secure the wire. Staples must straddle 

both wires to avoid electrical shorts.

5

 

Cut the wall station wire about 6” longer than needed to 

reach the operator terminals. Strip back ½” of insulation.

6 Connect wires to the operator’s WALL STATION 

terminal COMMON terminal. 

Polarity is CRITICAL.

7  Apply the User Safety Instruction Label to the wall 

next to the wall station. Use staples or tacks to help 

the label remain in place over time.

 

IMPORTANT!

 DO NOT PLUG THE OPERATOR IN AT 

THIS TIME! More installation is required.

8  Install the Safety Beam

 

NOTE: 

The safety beam’s infrared light beam must not be 

obstructed by the door, or by any part of the door hardware. 

Use wooden spacers between the beam brackets and wall 

if necessary to create proper clearance.

1

 

Assemble the two safety beam brackets from the four 

L-shaped brackets using two ¼-20 x ¾” bolts and 

¼-20 keps nuts (one nut & bolt for each bracket).

2  Position the assembled brackets on each side of the 

door 

so the center line of the safety beam lenses 

will be 5-1/2” above the floor.

 Use the index marks 

on the brackets to make the bracket assemblies 

equal lengths. Mark the locations for the bracket 

mounting screws.

 

NOTE:

 The safety beam receiver (the unit with two 

indicators) should be located on the “shady” side of 

the door to prevent sunlight from shining directly into 

the receiver’s lens.

3

 

Drill two 3/16” pilot holes for lag screws at marks. 

Mount the brackets with two ¼” x 1-¼” lag screws 

and tighten with a 7/16” socket.

4  Insert the sender and receiver into the bracket holes 

so the lenses of the units will face each other. Twist the 

units until the spring clips lock into a detent mark on 

the brackets. To protect the units from being bumped 

after installation, it is recommended to mount the 

sender and receiver inside the brackets as shown. 

  IMPORTANT: 

Be careful to route the safety beam 

wiring away from any moving parts of the door or 

operator.

5

 

For non-prewired installations, route the wires from 

the sender and receiver, up the wall above the door 

hardware, then over to the center of the door, then 

along the top of the rail (or ceiling), and back to the 

operator head. Cut the wires about 6” longer than 

needed to reach the operator terminals. Strip back ½” 

of insulation from the ends of the wires.

6  For non-prewired installations, secure all the wires 

to the wall and ceiling with insulated staples (not 

supplied). Staples must straddle both wires to 

prevent shorts. Secure the wire to the top of the rail 

with wire clips (supplied).

7  At the operator, twist one wire from each pair together, 

then twist the other wire from each pair together.

8 Attach either twisted connection to the operator’s 

BEAM terminal. Connect the other twisted connection 

to the operator’s COMMON terminal.

10  Installing the Battery Back-up

1  Loosening the four housing screws and remove the housing.
2 Remove the three screws holding the battery box and 

remove.

3  Insert the battery into the battery box and re-install the box 

using the three battery box screws.

4  Connect the battery terminal wires to the battery terminals. 

Make sure the RED wire is connected to the POSITIVE 

terminal and the BLACK wire is connected to the NEGATIVE 

terminal.

5 Replace the operator housing
