NOTICE
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THIS INSTRUCTION
MANUAL BE READ AND UNDERSTOOD
COMPLETELY BEFORE INSTALLATION OR
OPERATION IS ATTEMPTED.
NOTICE
THE IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS AND
INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS MANUAL CANNOT
COVER ALL POSSIBLE CONDITIONS AND
SITUATIONS WHICH MAY OCCUR DURING
ITS USE. IT MUST BE UNDERSTOOD THAT
COMMON SENSE AND CAUTION MUST BE
EXERCISED BY THE PERSON(S) INSTALLING,
MAINTAINING AND OPERATING THE
EQUIPMENT DESCRIBED HEREIN. DO NOT
USE THIS EQUIPMENT FOR ANY OTHER
THAN ITS INTENDED PURPOSE - OPERATING
OVERHEAD GARAGE DOORS.
STANDARD FEATURES:
Digital Radio Controls: This opener is equipped with
a transmitter pre-programmed to one of over nineteen thousand private codes. The transmitter can be re­programmed without difficulty using the external operation buttons. The power head is easily programmed to accept the transmitter signal. (PageZ11)
Safe Finish™ Photosystem: An invisible infrared beam of light guards the door opening and reverses a downward moving door if the beam is broken by a stationary or moving object. The opener’s motor control circuitry constantly monitors the Safe Finish Photosystem for proper operation.
Super Station (Deluxe Wall Push Button): A feature-packed accessory unit, the Super Station allows access to all of the opener's functions. Independent Open, Close, and Stop buttons permits full control of the door’s operation. The opener's built-in light can be turned on or off independent of door operation. A Learn Enable button allows programming of the radio controls at floor level. A Security Switch allows the opener to be deactivated for extended periods of time. A Security Disable switch is provided if the garage door is the only entryway into the garage. Lighted Push Buttons enhance nighttime use. (Page 17)

Manual Release: A pull cord allows separation of the drive mechanism and manual operation of the door when desired, as in the event of a power failure. (Page 7)
Automatic Reconnection: Once power is restored, or automatic operation of the door is again desired, initiating operation in the normal manner (Push Button, Radio Control, etc.) will effect automatic reconnection of the Manual Release Mechanism. (Page 7)
Alternating Action Operation: The mechanical wall pushbutton functions in an Open/Stop/Close/ Stop & Reverse mode in normal operation. (Page 15)
Sensing System: A built-in sensing system detects obstructions during door operation. If in the downward (close) travel mode, the opener will sense an obstruction and reverse the direction of the door. In the open mode, the opener will stop. Since all doors are different, the Sensing System has independent adjustments for customizing the level of force required for the normal opening and closing of specified doors. ( Page 16)
Close Limit Switch: In winter months it's common for small pieces of ice or packed snow to be trapped under the door. Ground swelling can also effect the close limit setting of the opener. The opener’s Close Limit Switch overrides the Sensing System during the last one inch of closing travel and prevents the door from reversing if it encounters an obstruction at this point.
Constant Contact To Close Operation: For utmost safety and security, the operation mode allows constant contact on the mechanical Push Button to close the door if the Safe Finish™ Photosystem beam becomes misaligned or if there is an irregularity in the wiring to the device. In this mode of operation, a Radio Transmitter cannot be used to close the door.
OPTIONAL FEATURES:
Wireless Keyless Entry System: A tamper resistant
outdoor keypad, the optional Wireless Keyless Entry System permits entry to the garage without use of key or radio transmitter. Easily programmable, it accommodates a 4 digit PIN code (10,000 possible combinations). Lighted Buttons enhance nighttime use. The opener has the ability to learn the PIN codes from two separate Wireless Keyless Entry Systems.

possibilities for the Power Unit cannot be illustrated here. The main concern is mounting the Power Unit securely to the ceiling joists for operational strength, rigidity and safety. Although there are a series of mounting slots provided on the power unit, try to secure the mounting straps in the slots closest to the front. Mounting may usually be accomplished using standard 1-1/4“ perforated steel angle available at most hardware stores. If in doubt about location of, and attachment to, ceiling joists, a carpenter should be contacted to provide assistance. A cross brace will be necessary if power head is mounted 8” or more from the ceiling.

INSTALLATION OF A STANDARD WALL PUSH BUTTON
If desired, a standard wall push button may be installed and connected to your operator. A standard wall push button is not included in your hardware package, it can be purchased from your professional installing dealer or a door bell button [without light] can be substituted. The operating parameters for the standard wall push button are outlined on a page that follows to see if that mode of operation is right for you. The Super Station is included with this operator and the manufacturer rec­ommends its installation as the Super Station will pro­vide full control over the garage door at all times.
STEP 1: After determining a suitable location,
usually near the access door and the floor to prevent use by children, use the standard wall push button as a guide to mark the mounting holes. Drill holes for drywall anchors or screws. NOTE: Do not mount directly to masonry walls. Use backer board.
STEP 2: A length of 2-conductor, #22 gauge wire (or
heavier) is required to connect the standard wall push button to the garage door operator. Strip approximately 2” of the wire jacket from one end and 1/2” of insulation from each wire. Carefully connect one wire to each of the two terminals. Carefully tuck the loose wires into the case and mount the unit using appropriate screws.
STEP 3: Run the wire from the standard wall
pushbutton to the operator, supporting it at 18” intervals with suitable staples. Leave a sufficient length to make the necessary connections to the operator terminal strip.

Installing the Transmitter
The transmitter is supplied with a metal clip which may be used to attach the unit to a sun visor. If the clip is used, slide it into the recess provided on the back of the transmitter case until the snaps on the case fit around the clip. If the transmitter is installed in a pocket in your car, follow all the manufacturer’s instructions. Improper installation may cause intermittent transmitter operation which can result in unexpected door operations.
Battery Replacement
The MVP Quik-Code transmitter is provided with two factory installed 3-volt batteries which should be replaced after two years of normal use. The transmitter code is retained in permanent memory and will not be lost during battery replacement. To replace the batteries, remove the back of the case using quarter or your thumb. Carefully slip the batteries out of the holders and replace with fresh CR2032 3-volt batteries. The “+” on the batteries must point away from the circuit board. Replace the back of the cover and resume normal use. Radio Operational Check - Note: Before performing the radio operational check complete installation of the Safe Finish™ Photosystem on page 13 and review the Installation Check List and Important Safety Instructions on pages 14 and 15.
