IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4
For ADDITIONAL SAFETY protection we
STRONGLY recommend the fitting of a Photo Electric
Beam. In most countries Photo Electric Beams are
mandatory on all garage doors fitted with automatic
openers. For a small additional outlay ATA recommends
that Photo Electric Beams be installed with the
automatic opener ensuring additional safety and peace
of mind.
DO NOT operate the garage door opener unless the
garage door is in full view and free from objects such as
cars and children/people. Make sure that the door has
finished moving before entering or leaving the garage.
DO NOT operate the garage door opener when
children/persons are near the door. Children must be
supervised near the garage door at all times when the
door opener is in use. SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY and/or property damage can result from failure
to follow this warning.
DO NOT allow children to operate the garage door
opener. SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY and/or
property damage can result from failure to follow this
warning.
Regularly check to make sure that the SAFETY
OBSTRUCTION FORCE is working correctly, and is
TESTED (by placing a 50mm high object on the floor)
and set as per the Installation Instructions Manual.
Failure to follow the manual could result in SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY and/or property damage. This
test must be repeated at regular intervals and the
necessary adjustments made as required.
DO NOT disengage the door opener to manual
operation with children/persons or any other objects
including motor vehicles within the doorway.
Install the wall switch or wall mounted transmitter in a
location where it is out of reach of children and the
garage door is visible.
The door opener is not intended for use by young
children or infirm persons without adequate supervision.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the remote transmitters or the opener.
Keep hands and loose clothing CLEAR of the door and
door opener at all times.
If the roll up door is the only entrance to the garage and
a battery back up kit is not fitted to the opener - a keyed
cable release should be fitted to the exterior of the
garage.
Warning - It is vital for the safety of persons to follow all instructions. Failure to comply
with the following Safety Rules may result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.
The unit should be installed so that it is protected from
the elements. It should not be exposed to water or rain.
It is not to be immersed in water or sprayed directly by
a hose or other water carrying device.
The garage door must be WELL BALANCED.
Sticking or binding doors must be repaired by a
qualified garage door installer prior to installation of the
opener.
Frequently examine the installation, in particular
cables, springs and mountings for signs of wear,
damage or imbalance. DO NOT use if repair or
adjustment is needed since a fault in the installation or
an incorrectly balanced door may cause injury. DO
NOT attempt to repair the door yourself as hardware is
under extreme tension.
REMOVE OR DISENGAGE all garage door locks
and mechanisms prior to installation of the opener.
Connect the garage door opener to a properly
EARTHED general purpose 240V mains power outlet
installed by a qualified electrical contractor. The outlet
(and opener) must be positioned so that it is easily
accessible.
DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD from mains
power before making any repairs or removing covers.
Only EXPERIENCED service personnel should
remove covers from the garage door opener.
When using auto close mode, a PHOTO ELECTRIC
BEAM must be fitted correctly and tested for operation
at regular intervals. EXTREME CAUTION is
recommended when using auto close mode. ALL
SAFETY RULES must be followed.
In order for the garage door opener to SENSE an object
obstructing the door way, some FORCE must be
exerted on the object. As a result the object, door and/or
person may suffer DAMAGE or INJURY.
If the power supply cord is damaged, it MUST be
replaced by an ATA service agent or suitably qualified
person.
Make sure that the door is fully open before driving in
or out of the garage and fully closed before leaving the
driveway.
Make sure that remote controls are kept out of reach of
children.

FEATURES
Thank you for purchasing the Slim-
Drive EasyRoller®Automatic Garage
Door Opener. This opener is designed to
suit vertical operating continuous
curtain roll up doors. The components
and materials used in this opener are of
the latest technology and highest
quality. Listed below are some of the
many features.
OPERATION
To open or close the door simply press
the keyring transmitter, easy access
transmitter, or optional wall switch for
two seconds. During an open or close
cycle the door can be stopped by
pressing the button while the door is in
motion. The next actuation will move
the door in the opposite direction.
HOPPING CODE
Every time a transmission is made from
the remote transmitter a new security
code is generated. The number of
possible code combinations is over 4.29
billion. This greatly enhances the
security of the system. Code “grabbing”
is made a thing of the past.
ALPS (AUTOMATIC LIMITS
POSITIONING SYSTEM)
The new ALPS technology does away
with manual adjustment of the doors’
limits position using mechanical parts,
such as cams and micro switches.
The ALPS system automatically
calculates the doors’ travel limits and
stores it in memory. If the door is
moved manually within the travel limits
during a power failure, the ALPS will
recognise this once the power is
restored and stop at the correct limit
position if the door is activated.
During installation the hand held
transmitter can be programmed to set
the door limits positions.
ISS (INTELLIGENT SAFETY
OBSTRUCTION SYSTEM)
Whilst performing a close cycle the
door will automatically reverse if it
should hit an obstacle or is restricted in
some manner. The amount of force the
door should encounter before reversing
is automatically adjusted by the control
system during the initialisation of the
opener. The door will also stop if
restricted whilst opening. The safety
obstruction force should be checked at
least once a month. See installation
manual for instructions.
SECURITY CODE STORE
The EasyRoller®Garage Door Opener
uses state of the art technology in
storing transmitter codes. Up to 24
different transmitters can be stored in
the openers memory.
OVER LOAD INDICATOR
When the maximum opening and
closing capacity of the opener is
exceeded an audible beeper will sound
to indicate that an overload has
occurred.
AUTO COURTESY LIGHT
The opener’s courtesy light illuminates
automatically whenever the door is
activated. The light can also be
switched on and off without operating
the door. This is done by pressing the
button on any transmitter which has
been coded to operate the light. The
light will stay on for approximately
three minutes then switch off. This time
is also adjustable.
BATTERY BACK UP (OPTIONAL)
The opener has provision to include a
battery back up module. This is an ideal
addition if the garage door is the only
entrance to the garage or if the area is
prone to power cuts.
Note: If the roll up door is the only
entrance to the garage and a battery
back up kit is not fitted to the opener - a
keyed cable release should be fitted to
the exterior of the garage.
VACATION MODE
A transmitter can be programmed to
block out all other transmitters that have
been programmed into the opener’s
memory. Vacation mode is ideal for
homes with non-permanent tenancy or
when the door is to be left idle for long
periods of time.
PET (PEDESTRIAN) MODE
A transmitter can be programmed to
open the door partially so that the
family pet can enter and exit the garage
at any time. If required, you may also
wish to open the door to a height
suitable only for pedestrian access. The
opening height is adjustable.
AUTO CLOSE MODE
The opener can be programmed to
automatically close after an open cycle.
It is compulsory to install a photo
electric beam if this mode is selected,
otherwise the door may cause personal
injury or damage to property. Auto close
time is adjustable.
PHOTO ELECTRIC BEAM
(OPTIONAL)
The opener has an input for a photo
electric beam to be connected for extra
safety protection and use of the auto
close mode.
MANUAL OPERATION
The opener is equipped with a unique
manual disengaging device. If the
power to the opener is disrupted for any
reason the door can be switched into
manual mode by pulling down on the
string handle, then releasing. This will
allow you to manually open or close the
door. By repeating this action the
opener is returned to automatic mode.
EASY ACCESS TRANSMITTER
Inside the manual release handle is a
transmitter designed to be in easy reach
so that the garage door can be operated
without having to stretch to reach the
O/S/C button on the control panel.
