CAUTION: If your garage has no pedestrian entrance door, an emergency access device should be installed.
This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.
For ADDITIONAL SAFETY protection we STRONGLY recommend the fitting of a Photo Electric (PE)
Beam. In most countries PE Beams are mandatory on all garage doors fitted with automatic openers.
For a small additional outlay Automatic Technology recommends that Photo Electric Beams be
installed with the automatic opener ensuring additional safety and peace of mind.
DO NOT operate the 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 opener when children/people are near the door. Children must
be supervised at all times when the 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 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 and set as per page 21 of this manual. Failure to
follow these instructions 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.
Photo Electric beams must be installed if the closing force at the
bottom edge of the door exceeds 400N (40kg).
DO NOT disengage the door opener to manual operation with
children/people or any other objects including motor vehicles
within the doorway.
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.
WARNING: It is vital for the safety of persons to follow all
instructions. Failure to comply with the following safety
instructions 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 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 opener to a properly earthed general purpose 240V mains power outlet installed
by a qualified electrical contractor.
Disconnect the power cord from mains power before making any repairs or removing
covers. Only experienced service personnel should remove covers from the 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 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
Automatic Technology 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.
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.

Operation
To open or close the door simply press a button on a TrioCode™ handheld
transmitter, a wall mounted transmitter, or optional wall switch for two seconds.
During open and close cycles the door can be stopped by pressing the button
again. The next button press will reverse the door’s direction.
TrioCode™ Code Hopping Technology
Every time a TrioCode™ transmitter is used a new security code is randomly
generated from over 4.29 billion possibilities. This greatly enhances the security
of the system and makes “code grabbing” a thing of the past.
These transmitters also overcome interference issues by simultaneously sending a
signal over three different frequencies. Even if two of the three signals are jammed,
the system will still work.
ALPS (Automatic Limits Positioning System)
ALPS does away with manual adjustment of the door’s limits position using mechanical
parts, such as cams and microswitches. During installation the hand held transmitter
can be programmed to set the door limits positions.
ISS (intelligent safety obstruction system)
While the door is performing a close cycle, should it hit an obstacle or be restricted in some
manner, it will automatically reverse. The amount of force the door should encounter before
reversing is automatically adjusted by the doors control system during the initial installation of the
automatic door opener. The door will also stop if restricted whilst opening. The Safety Obstruction
Force should be checked monthly.
Auto courtesy light
The courtesy light comes on automatically for three minutes whenever the door is activated. The light can also
be operated independently of the door by coding in a dedicated button on a transmitter.
Vacation mode
A hand held transmitter can be programmed to lock and unlock all other transmitters that have been
programmed into the openers’ memory. The vacation mode can be used when the door is left idle for long
periods of time.

SmartSolar™ and Battery Backup Compatibility (optional)
The opener can be fitted with a SmartSolar™ or Battery Backup kit for operation in the
event of a power outage, or where mains power access is not available.
NOTE: If the door is the only entrance to the garage, and a battery backup kit is not
fitted, a keyed cable release should be fitted externally to the garage.
Pet/Pedestrian mode
The transmitter can be programmed to open the door to an adjustable partial
height so that the family pet can enter and exit the garage at any time. You may
also wish to open the door to a height suitable only for pedestrian access.
Auto-Close mode
The opener can be programmed to automatically close after an open cycle. The
Auto-Close time is adjustable. It is compulsory to install a Photo Electric (PE) Beam
if this mode is selected, otherwise the door may cause personal injury or damage
to property.
Safety Beam (optional)
The opener has an input to connect a Safety Beam for extra safety and use of the
Auto-Close mode. Easy Beam PE 3 kit or Wireless PE Beam kit can be used with this
opener.
Safety Beam Failure Emergency Close
When a safety beam prevents movement due to any reason other than a ‘real’ obstruction, the
user can secure their property by pressing and holding a button on the remote control or OSC
on the console.
Manual operation
The opener is equipped with a unique manual disengaging device. If the power to the opener is disrupted, the
door can be put into manual mode by pulling down on the string handle on an angle towards the door. This
allows for manual operation of the door. To re-engage the opener, pull the string handle away from the door.
Service Indicator
The opener has a built in counter with a default setting of 3000 cycles. When the counter expires the opener will
beep and flash to indicate a service is required.

Step 11 - Mounting Door Bracket
The door bracket comes in two parts. The bottom plate
with two mounting holes is used on its own for one piece
doors. For sectional doors, the top plate is placed over
the bottom plate and is fixed with four (4) screws (Fig.
17).
a. Mount the door bracket, or bracket assembly,
on the door’s centre line one-third down the top
panel (Fig. 17) using M6 or equivalent screws (not
supplied),
b. STEEL DOORS ONLY: Bracket can be welded in
place.
NOTE: If in doubt about the door’s strength,
reinforcement may be added to the door’s frame
where necessary. Door damage may occur if the
bracket is installed on a panel with insufficient
strength. The opener’s warranty does not cover
damage caused to the door and/or door panels.
Step 12 - Attaching the Arms
FOR SECTIONAL AND ONE PIECE DOORS WITH
TRACK:
a. Assemble the bent arm (connecting to the door)
to the right side of the straight arm (connecting to
the shuttle) with bolts and nuts supplied in the ac-
cessory pack (Fig. 18). Always use both bent and
straight arms.
b. Connect the assembled arm to the bracket and
the disengaged trolley with clevis and snap pins.
The angle “A” must be more than 10° (Fig. 19).
The bent section must be closest to the door.
WARNING: Connecting the bent arm the other
way around may damage the door. The straight
arm should not protrude beyond the heel of the
bent arm.
FOR ONE PIECE DOORS WITHOUT TRACK
a. Assemble the bent and straight arms as shown
in (Fig. 20) with bolts and nuts supplied in the
accessory pack. Always use both the bent and
straight arms.
b. Connect the assembled arm to the bracket and the
disengaged trolley with clevis and snap pins. The
bent section must be closest to the C-rail.
c. If installing on a door with a bad wave action,
lengthening the arm will assist in reducing this
effect.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Adjust the length of the
cord so that its toggle is no more than 1.8m from
the ground.

Setting Travel Limits : Via Transmitter
The GDO-9v2 Enduro™ Gen 2 has the alternate
ability to set travel limits using the transmitter, allowing
free movement around the garage to better assess the
desired limit positions.
Step 14.1 - Code a Transmitter for Limit Setting
a. Ensure the opener is powered up and button cover
is removed.
b. Press and hold the DOOR CODE button (Fig. 25).
c. Press Button 1 on the transmitter for two seconds
(Fig. 26). Release and pause for two seconds.
Press the Button 1 again for two seconds.
d. Release the DOOR CODE button.
Step 14.2 - Setting Limits via Transmitter
a. Engage the C-Rail’s trolley (attached to the door via
the arms) with the chain or belt index by moving the
door.
b. If the trolley does not “click” firmly onto the chain
index, pull the cord backwards until it locks in place,
and try again.
c. Press and hold Button 4 on the transmitter to close
the door. When the door is approx. 20mm from the
ground, release Button 4 (Fig. 26).
d. Each press of Button 4 will allow you to “inch” the
door closed. Keep doing this until the door reaches
the desired close limit position.
e. If the door overshoots, press Button 1 to “inch” the
door towards open
f. When in the correct close limit position, press Button
2 to store this in memory.
g. Press and hold Button 1 to open the door. When
approx. 20mm from the desired open position,
release Button 1.
h. Each press of Button 1 will allow you to “inch” the
door open. Keep doing this until the door reaches
the desired open limit position.
i. If the door overshoots, press Button 4 to “inch” the
door towards closed.
IMPORTANT WARNING: The door will
automatically close, open and close again once the
next step is performed. Ensure that no persons or
objects are in the door’s path.
j. When in the correct open limit position, press Button
2 on the transmitter to store into memory.
k. The door will now automatically close, open and close
to calculate the safety obstruction settings. After
this, the opener can be operated with the OPERATE
button.
Step 14.3 - Resetting the Door Limit Positions
Limit positions can be deleted by the following steps:
a. Follow Steps 13.2, as outlined previously.
b. Repeat Steps 14.1 and 14.2 to set new travel limit
positions.
c. There is no need to re-code the transmitter (Step
14.1) upon resetting travel limits. The transmitter
will still be stored in memory.

Safety Obstruction Forces
Safety Obstruction Force Test
WARNING! Take care when testing or adjusting
the Safety Obstruction Force. Excessive force
may cause SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY and/or
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WARNING! Photo electric beams must be installed
if the closing force at the bottom edge of the door
exceeds 400N (40kg) force.
Step 15.1 - Testing Close Cycle
a. Press the OPERATE button to open the door (Fig.
27).
b. Place a piece of timber approximately 40mm high
on the floor directly under the door (Fig. 34).
c. Press the OPERATE button to close door. The door
should strike the object and start to re-open.
Step 15.2 - Testing Open Cycle
a. Press the OPERATE button to close the door (Fig.
28).
b. Press again to open the door. When the door
reaches the half open point, grab the bottom rail of
the door firmly and the door should stop.
c. If the door does not reverse readily when closing,
or stop when opening, the force may be excessive
and need adjusting, refer below.
DANGER! If the door fails these tests, put the
opener into manual mode, only operate the door
by hand and call for service.
NOTE: Once the travel limits are set and safety
obstruction force tested check the chain or belt tension.
As per the sticker on the C-rail the chain or belt should
sag slightly, so there is a 5mm gap between the bottom
of the C-rail and the chain or belt.
The tension can be varied by using a spanner to adjust
the bolt at the door end of the C-rail.
Be sure not to over-tension the chain or belt as this can
cause damage to the C-rail or opener.

Adjusting Safety Obstruction Force
The Safety Obstruction Force is calculated automatically
during setup. Adjusting this is normally only necessitated
by environmental conditions such as windy or dusty areas,
and areas with extreme temperature changes.
WARNING! Photo electric beams must be installed
if the closing force at the bottom edge of the door
exceeds 400N (40kg) force.
Step 16.1 - To Increase Force Pressure
a. Hold down FORCE MARGIN SET button (Fig. 29)
b. While holding the FORCE MARGIN SET button,
press the PLUS (+) button. Each press increases the
force margin (Fig. 29).
c. The OPEN LIMIT LED will flash each time the PLUS
(+) button is pressed to indicate a force increase
d. If the OPEN LIMIT LED is on continuously when
pressing the PLUS (+) button, this indicates that the
maximum setting has been reached.
e. Test the force again as per Steps 15.1 and 15.2
Step 16.2 - To Decrease Force Pressure
a. Hold down FORCE MARGIN SET button (Fig. 29)
b. While holding the FORCE MARGIN SET button,
press the MINUS (-) button. Each press decreases
the force margin (Fig. 29).
c. The CLOSE LIMIT LED will flash each time the MINUS
(-) button is pressed to indicate a force decrease.
d. If the CLOSE LIMIT LED is on continuously when
pressing the MINUS (-) button this indicates that the
maximum setting has been reached.
e. Test the force again as per Steps 15.1 and 15.2
Step 16.3 - To Recall Factory Set Force
a. While holding down the FORCE MARGIN SET
button, press the SET button for two (2) seconds.
(Fig. 30)
b. Release both buttons. The default setting should
now be recalled.
Step 16.4 - To Recalculate Force Margins
a. Press and hold the SET Button for two (2) seconds,
the beeper will sound once (Fig. 31).
b. The door will start to move and re-calculate force
margins. The door can move between the open and
close limit positions up to four (4) times (depending
on the position of the door and the power up
condition).
c. A single beep will be heard once the process is
complete.
d. Test the force again as per Steps 15.1 and 15.2.
