Genie Series GCG User manual

Check your ceiling where the power
head of your new unit will be mounted.
Plan how you will be mounting the power head.
It is possible that ceiling joists may not be in the
position needed with respect to the garage door
operator. It may be necessary to add an
additional bracket and fasteners (not included
with your new door operator kit).
You need a 110-120 Volt power supply
available. The outlet should be no more than 3
feet from the power head once it is mounted. (The
cord is 4 ft. in length.) SEE WARNING BELOW.
Check the wall directly above the garage
door. The door operator's header bracket
must be securely fastened to this watt. Insure
that the structure wilt provide a strong mounting
location.
To avoid damage to your door and/or
operator, make sure you disable any door
locks prior to installing your operator.
Check to see if the mounting location
for the Safe-T-Beam ® System "STB" is
clear from obstruction and has a wood
surface available for attaching the "STB"
brackets. The brackets may be attached to
concrete if necessary but extra tools and special
fasteners (not supplied) wilt be required.
NO S'_!!!:" " "s" "¢ "',_'v,,".
Is your garage door made of
ight-weight steel, aluminum, fiberglass
or glass panels? Additional support bracing
must be added to these type doors. If this is the
case, please contact the door distributor or
manufacturer so that they can furnish you with a
"bracing kit."
Insure that your door is properly balanced
and moving freely. SEE WARNING BELOW.
(NOT SHOWN) If your garage does not have
a separate entry door, you should consider
an emergency release kit (GER-2) for installation on
your garage door. See page B at the center of this
manual.

INTELLICODE ®Rolling Code Security System.
An electronic rolling code system that enhances the security of
the door operator by continuously changing the access code
each time the remote control is used. The door operator
responds to each new code only once. An access code copied
from a working system and triedagain will not control the door
operator.
INTELLICODE _ 1, 2 or 3-Button Remote Control (included
with some models).
Operates 1, 2 or 3 garage doors from car.

above floor. (Fig. 3-1),
. 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. "STB" bracket extensions are available
at local dealer.
b. Blocks of wood, etc. may be substituted for
extensions.
, Center bracket on your mark (Fig. 3-2).
, Fasten each with 2 screws (44) (Fig, 3-2).

2. Mounting "STB" source and sensor.
. If garage has only one garage door.
- Determine which side of garage receives most
direct sunlight (Fig. 3-4),
- Red LED should always be on sunny side
whenever possible (Fig. 3-4),
. For multiple doors.
-Preventing crossed signals is critical.
- Place source and sensor modules on adjacent
doors facing in opposite directions (Fig. 3-4).
Fns _@ws
. Slide source/sensor onto tongue of bracket until
it clicks into place (Fig. 3-3),
3. Wiring.
, Routewire (29) using either method shown

-Loosen terminal screws.
- Insert wire under flat plate and tighten screw.
It does not matter which wire, white or
striped, goes on which terminal (Fig. 3-7).
,Make wire attachments at power head.
-"STB's" are connected to terminals #2 and #3
on power head (Fig. 3-8).
4. Check the following.
,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. 3-9). The brackets are
flexible, and can be adjusted slightly if needed.

1. Finding the mounting location.
,Pick a convenient location for mounting
wall control.
- Location you choose should be in direct sight
of door.
- It should be at least 5' above floor to prevent
small children from operating door.
-It must be away from any moving parts. (You
should not be able to reach the door while
standing at wall control.)
2. Wiring.
* Run wire from power head to wall control.
* Securely fasten to ceiling using insulated
staples provided.
* Split and strip ends of wire (Fig. 4-5).
* On power head:
-Attach the striped wire to terminal #1 and
white wire to terminal #2 (Fig. 5-1).
* On back of wall control:
-Attach striped wire to terminal "B", and
white wire to terminal "W." (Fig. 5-2).
