lag screws (Fig. 2-6).
• On unfinished ceilings or open ceilings, straps
may attach directly to joists or trusses.
Depending on the garage construction, extra
framing material (not provided) which may be
required should be installed using appropriate
construction techniques (Fig. 2-6).
NOTE: Refer to your local building codes for
appropriate framing materials and construction
techniques.
• Attach mounting straps (not provided) to ceiling
using lag bolts (Fig. 2-6).
• Set height of power head to following (Fig. 2-6).

WARNING
There should be no electrical power to the opener
while installing Safe-T-Beam®wires. If you have
plugged in the power cord—UNPLUG IT NOW!
FOR HELP-1.800.354.3643 OR WWW.GENIECOMPANY.COM
NOTE: The opener will not close the door
automatically unless the Safe-T-Beam
®
System is
installed.
NOTE: For Sensors, screws, wire, and insulated
staples locate items and Bag 8 from Box 3.
1. Mounting brackets.
• Mark both sides of garage door frame or wall no
higher than 6" and no lower than 5" above floor
(Fig. 4-1)
.
• Hold bracket against door frame or wall.
– Check if brackets extend out from wall far
enough, so tongue of bracket is beyond door,
tracks or any door hardware.
– If not:
a) Mounting bracket extensions are available
through an authorized Genie
®
Dealer.
b) Blocks of wood, etc. may be substituted for
extensions.
• Center bracket on your mark (Fig. 4-2).
• Fasten each with 2 screws (Fig. 4-2).
NOTE: Mounting brackets can be attached to the
floor or concrete rim using concrete anchors
(not provided).
2. Mounting Safe-T-Beam®Source (Red LED) and
Sensor (Green LED).
• If garage has only one garage door.
– Determine which side of garage receives most
direct sunlight (Fig. 4-4).
– Red LED should always be on sunny side
whenever possible (Fig. 4-4).
• For multiple doors.
– Preventing crossed signals is critical.
– Place source and sensor modules on adjacent
doors facing in opposite directions (Fig. 4-4).
NOTE:To help prevent interference from sun,
Safe-T-Beam
®
sensor with Green LED may be
placed further away from the door opening,
though extended no further out from the wall,
where it will spend more time in shadow.

WARNING
•To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this equipment
has a grounded type plug that includes a third
(grounding) pin. This plug will only fit a grounded type
outlet. If you do not have a grounded outlet, contact
a qualified licensed electrician to install one. DO NOT
alter the plug in any way. The door opener must be
properly grounded in order to prevent personal injury
and damage to the components.
•DO NOT remove motor cover. All work performed
on motor must be done by a trained door system
technician.

CAUTION
•Check local building codes to make sure that you
are not required to have your garage door opener
permanently wired, with circuit breaker protection.
If building codes require door opener to be
permanently wired have a qualified licensed
electrician connect power with permanent wiring.
WITH GROUNDED PLUG:
Plug the opener into a properly grounded
electrical outlet (Fig. 5-1).
WITH PERMANENT WIRING:
Instructions for Electrician.
• Remove power from circuit.
• Remove rear cover and motor cover.
– Remove four motor cover screws (Fig. 5-2).
• Remove existing power cord and strain relief
from the 7/8" dia. hole and discard (Fig. 5-3).
• Connect permanent wiring to power head using
7/8" diameter hole.
– White to white/black to black/ground to green.
– Use only UL recognized wire nuts.
• Wires inside the power head must be at least 6"
in length.
• Replace motor cover and rear cover and
re-energize the circuit.
NOTE: The Genie Company is not responsible for
charges resulting from work preformed by an
independent electrician.
WITH POWER SUPPLIED:
Check Safe-T-Beam®alignment (Fig. 5-4).
• Insure that no part of door or its hardware is
in path between lenses of source and sensor.
• Insure that tops of lenses are between 5" - 6"
above the floor (Fig. 5-4). The brackets are
flexible, and can be adjusted slightly if needed.
• Adjust the Red LED transmitter by aiming the
unit directly at the Green LED receiver. Use the
adjustment screw located on the top of the
transmitter housing to make adjustments.
• The Red LED transmitter will blink if there is a
misalignment. When the LED units are aligned
the Red LED will remain ON continuously.
• After the alignment is finished tighten the
adjustment screws on both sensors.

INFRARED PROTECTION FUNCTION
1. When the garage door is opening, its movement
will not be influenced if the Safe-T-Beam®is
obstructed.
2. If the Safe-T-Beam
garage door fully closes, the door will not close.
3. When the garage door is closing, if Safe-T-Beam
is cut off by people or obstacle, the garage door
will reverse automatically to its fully opened position.
(Meanwhile, the opener light will keep blinking until
door moves to its fully opened position.)
4. If the Safe-T-Beam
or is installed improperly, you will have to press
and hold the wall control "close" button until the
door reaches its fully closed position. The LED
indicator light on the power head will be green
and blink twice (Pattern: ☼☼ pause ☼☼ pause)
to inform you to eliminate problem first.
Otherwise, the door will reverse automatically to
its fully opened position if you release the
"close" button on the wall control during the
closing movement.

The force adjustments and limit switch settings
MUST BE COMPLETED before testing.
1. Testing.
• Open garage door using wall button.
– Place a 2" x 4" board (laid flat) under center
of garage door opening (Fig. 6-6).
• Close door using wall button.
• When door contacts board, the door must stop
(within 2 seconds) and reverse direction
returning to open position.
2. Adjustment.
• If the door does not properly reverse.
– Check to see if door has "close" limit
programmed. It should not have reached its
"close" limit before hitting board.
– If the door STOPS but does not reverse,
decrease "CLOSE FORCE" control
setting slightly (turn it counter-clockwise).
• Test again. Repeat as necessary until door
reverses upon contacting board.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of severe injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Never let children operate or play with the door controls. Keep the remote control away from children.
3. Always keep the moving door in sight and away from people and objects until the door is completely
closed. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING DOOR.
4. NEVER GO UNDER A STOPPED, PARTIALLY OPEN DOOR.
5. Test opener monthly. The door MUST reverse on contact with a 1-1/2" high object (or a 2" x 4" board
laid flat) at the center of the doorway on the floor. After adjusting either the force or the limit of travel,
retest the door opener. Failure to adjust the opener properly may cause severe injury or death.
6. When possible, use the emergency release only when the door is closed. Use caution when using this
release with the door open. Weak or broken springs are capable of increasing the rate of door closure
and increasing the risk of severe injury or death.
7. KEEP DOORS PROPERLY BALANCED. See your garage door Owner’s Manual. An improperly
balanced door increases the risk of severe injury or death. Have a trained door system technician make
repairs to cables, spring assemblies, and other hardware.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
