b. The desired mode is selected by successive presses of the Mode button, to the
right of the LED display. The modes will cycle in the order shown above
(although the pet mode will be omitted if no pet opening width has been set).
The selected mode will engage after a short delay.
a. Toggle DIP switch for pet learn.
b. The door will begin to close slowly. If the door is already closed there will be a
short delay.
c. After a short delay, the door will begin to open slowly. When the door reaches
the desired pet opening width stop the door preferably with your foot. Be
careful to not get anything caught in the opening door!
d. After a short delay, the door will begin too slowly close. Once fully closed the
Multi-Controller Lock will return to Automatic mode, indicated by a green LED on
the display, and pet options will be available.
e. Test the pet opening width by pressing the ‘pet sensor’ button. If the width is
incorrect then return to step ‘a’.
SETTING PET OPENING WIDTH
Learning Process:
Turn on the power switch, ensure dip 1 is correct, if direction is wrong. Please
switch the dip to opposite direction, turn off the power and make sure
door/window is fully closed. Then, power on.
Opening width learning (pet):
Pet mode indicator will flash, door will start to open slowly. Have an obstacle at
the position you need, after short pause, door will close slowly. The learning
process will be done after the door/window is fully closed, standard opening
width learning.
All Mode indicator flash, door:
Will open and close slowly. When the door is fully closed, automatic mode
indicator flashes, indicating the learning process is done. Controller is with

OPERATING MODES
Once the door is operating correctly the desired mode can be selected:. There are
five modes available:
i. Automatic mode (green LED) –the door will open when a sensor is triggered
and close after the preset dwell time has elapsed.
ii. Hold open mode (Blue LED) –door will open and remain open until another
mode is selected.
iii. Lock mode: door will close and remain closed until another mode is selected
through remote system, if an e-Lock is connected.
iv. Pet mode (Yellow LED) –Will open the door to the pet opening width when
pet sensor is triggered and close after the preset dwell time has elapsed.
v. Manual mode: the door can be manually operated; the system will not drive
the door.
vi. This option is for function select.
•Once the settings are confirmed the drive unit can be powered on. Switch the
main isolator switch on the left side of the controller to the down (on) position.
Caution: the door will begin to move without warning!
•After a short delay, the LED display will begin to flash, and door will begin close
slowly. If the door starts to open when first powered up, turn dip switch 1 to the
opposite position (leave power on), the door will then change direction to the
closing position.
•During self calibration process, once the door has fully closed, the door will then
slowly slide to the open position, then close slowly back to the closed position
with a small increase in speed. The door will then open in a fast speed once,
then closed. Once the lights on the control panel stop blinking and turns on solid
green, learn cycle is successful. The Multi-Controller has now memorized the width
of the door opening, the weight and friction of your door while sliding. And now
knows the individual power to operate your door smoothly and reliable. Your Multi-
controller is now ready to be used.
SPEED ADJUSTMENT
Adjustment of Speed:
Opening Speed: 0.4in to 1.6in/second / 10 to 41 cm/second
Closing Speed: 0.5in to 0.8in/second / 12 to 22 cm/second
Slam Mode:
Opening Speed under 80%, Open and Close speed is same.
Opening Speed higher than 80%, Closing speed is half of opening.
Without rubber:
Opening Speed lower than 50%, Open and Close speed is same.
Opening Speed higher than 50%, Closing speed is half of opening.
Opening time: 0 to 20 seconds (Adjustable)
Learning button: Learning button of remote or wireless push button, added and delete

SYMPTOM: Door does not open fully after learn cycle.
CAUSE:Incomplete learn cycle.
SOLUTION:Remove the external cover (if already fitted). Turn the Multi-Controller
off at the controller switch. Close the door manually. Turn Multi-Controller back on
with the controller switch. Test again after the learn cycle has completed. Refit
external cover.
SYMPTOM: Door does not open fully and automatically reopens after every ‘close’
cycle.
CAUSE:Gear and rack is not set properly
SOLUTION:Check the engagement of the gears and adjust if necessary. Remove
the external cover (if already fitted). Turn the Multi-Controller off at the controller
switch. Close the door manually. Turn the Multi-Controller back on at the controller
switch. Test again after the learn cycle has completed. Refit external cover.
SYMPTOM: Door cannot fully open and close.
CAUSE:Resistance between controller and door
SOLUTION:Turn on DIP switch 5 or 6to increase the power output.
SYMPTOM: Door cannot overcome the starting friction.
CAUSE 1:Door lock/catch is engaged.
SOLUTION 1: Multi-Controller will only operate when the door is unlocked. Release
the door lock and try again.
CAUSE 2: Heavy weather seals or excess friction in the door.
SOLUTION 2: Investigate excessive door friction and/or turn on DIP switch 2 to
increase Multi-Controller starting power.
TROUBLESHOOTING
SYMPTOM: Door tries to open but does not.
CAUSE: Door is locked by E-Lock.
SOLUTION: Check the engagement of the gears and adjust if necessary. Remove the
external cover (if already fitted). Turn the Multi-Controller off at the controller
switch. Close the door manually. Turn the Multi-Controller back on at the controller
switch. Test again after the learn cycle has completed. Refit external cover.
SYMPTOM: Door opens at random.
CAUSE 1: Interference on the radio control frequency.
SOLUTION 1: Remove the external cover. Press and hold the ‘learn’ button on the
controller for 5 sec. until the red light illuminates, to clear all previously learned
remotes. Press and release the ‘learn’ button on the controller and operate each of the
door remote controls/button/sensor one at a time.
CAUSE 2: Active IR sensors are set to too high a sensitivity.
SOLUTION 2: Remove the sensor covers and reduce the sensitivity setting dial slightly,
replace the covers and test. Re-adjust if necessary.
