2. GARAGE DOOR RECEIVER INSTALLATION
The following instructions will show you how to install the receiver.
You need to locate 2 things inside your garage to install the receiver:
1) the wall-mounted door control;
2) an electrical outlet, select an electrical outlet different from the one
already connected to the power cord of the garage door opener to
reduce the chance of interference. The further distance between
the receiver and the garage door opener, the less interference
between 2 devices.
Note: The length of the red/black wire is 20ft, so the receiver must be
plugged into an electrical outlet that is within 20ft of the wall mounted
door control. If there is no electrical outlet within 20ft of the wall
mounted door control, an extension cord can be used for temporary
installation.

Remove the wall-mounted door control from the wall by removing
the screws. Connect the stripped ends of the Red/Black wire to the
2 terminals (2 screws) on the back of the wall mounted door
control. (Polarity does not matter.)
Unplug the power cord of your garage door opener before
installation to ensure power is not connected.
