Edison Sliding Opener
Installation Manual

It is recommended that you have a low voltage electrician, or trade
member familiar with garage door installations to install the oper-
ator. You may call us or the manufacturer to see if there is anyone
in your area familiar with the Edison Opener. Real Carriage Door &
Sliding Hardware is not liable for any damage that occurs during
install, and replacements are the sole responsibility of the
installer and customer. The manufacturer does carry a warranty
for any defects or issues that are from manufacturing only and
will have to be tested by the manufacturer’s technical team before
sending replacements.
It is also a good idea to install a surge protector to avoid any
damage to the operator. The operator can be damaged by power
surges or faulty wiring.
CAUTION
All California residents must have a battery backup installed with
electronic door openers according to Senate Bill No. 969. Please call
our main line for assistance or check out our website for additional

Specications
The Edison operator can run up to 25ft right out
of the box and can be programmed to operate
up to 30ft. The control board has a motor brake
function, meaning if the motor speed is exceeded,
the motor brake actively uses the brake resistor.
There are also terminals that allow you to hook up
to your home automation system. Force process
and positions are always known by the control
unit, and any changes (attempted break in) will be
recognized. Because of the learn mode (autoset),
the motor will learn the force required to move the
door. This means the operator will not run at full
strength (unless needed), but instead adapts to your
application. With this operator there is only one limit
switch that needs to be installed, and the motor
carriage is simply laid out and pre-installed on the
rails.

Page 12 System Overview
Real Carriage Door & Sliding Hardware Copyright 2020© all rights reserved
System Overview
• The control unit housing must be mounted at
least 5ft from the ground, within 16.4ft of the
open end of the rail and no more than 5.7ft
(69”) from an outlet. These distances cannot be
extended
• The wire connector end of the track is always
the open end of the track
• The red limit stop is located on the opening end
of the rail (same as the wire connector)
• The boomerang arm is pointing towards the
closing end of the rail
• The closing end of the track has a
programmable end stop
• If your opening is smaller than our standard
9ft kit, you do not need to cut it down to size
unless you lack the available space. If you do
cut it down then cut the rail rst, take the cut
piece and use it as your guide for shortening
the chain
• It is standard to have the sliding hardware on
the outside of the building with the opener on
the inside. If you happen to have the sliding
hardware on the inside as well, then it is
important to make sure the opener will clear
(not interfere) the sliding barn door hardware.
To do this you can mount the opener on the
ceiling or build a bump out on the side wall for
clearance
Single Door Applications
You can utilize either the side mount or ceiling
mount option, and choose whichever is better for
your specic application. This opener is easily
adapted for unique situations and it is up to the
installer to nd the correct mounting location. It is
important to make sure the door bracket is installed
in a location that helps the door clear the opening
as much as possible, and that the rail is mounted
in a spot that allows the motor to travel to the
necessary locations.
• The rail must be offset from the opening
towards the open end. This will allow the
motor to travel past the opening which is vital
for getting the door as close to clearing the
opening as possible
• The amount of offset can be measured from
the end of the rail to the where the door
bracket attaches to the boomerang arm. The
angle of the boomerang arm changes (which
changes the measurement) depending on your
application (like the height it is mounted above
opening)
Biparting Doors
You can utilize either the side mount or ceiling
mount option, and choose whichever is better for
your specic application. This opener is easily
adapted for unique situations and it is up to the
installer to nd the correct mounting location. It
is important to make sure the door brackets are
installed in a location that helps the doors clear the
opening as much as possible, and that the rail is
mounted in a spot that allows the motors to travel
to the necessary locations.
• This is essentially like mounting two single door
applications next to each other. The rails are
offset towards the open end allowing the doors
to clear the opening as much as possible
• Most likely the opener rails will not touch in
the middle because of the offset (depending
on your opening size). The rail must be offset
to the opening towards the open end. This
will allow the motor to travel past the opening
which is vital for getting the doors as close to
clearing the opening as possible
• The amount of offset can be measured from
the end of the rail to the where the door
bracket attaches to the boomerang arm. The
angle of the boomerang arm changes (which
changes the measurement) depending on your
application (like the height it is mounted above
opening)
Bypassing Doors
You can utilize either the side mount or ceiling
mount option, and choose whichever is better for
your specic application. This opener is easily
adapted for unique situations and it is up to the
installer to nd the correct mounting location. It is
important to make sure the door bracket is installed
in a location that helps the door clear the opening
as much as possible, and that the rail is mounted
in a spot that allows the motors to travel to the
necessary locations. The most common bypass
scenario has two doors staying within the opening,
and one door moves at a time. This opener is not
suited to allow both doors to operate at the same
time or when there are applications where the doors
clear the opening. For applications where the doors
are collecting (cascading) you would only need
a single motor to operate. For any clarication or
questions please call customer service at 1-253-
853-3815

Page 13System Overview
Real Carriage Door & Sliding Hardware Copyright 2020© all rights reserved
• Opposite of the other two applications, the open
end of the rail is actually in the center of the
opening instead of the outside. This means the
rails must overlap in the center so the doors
clear their half of the opening as much as
possible
• The amount of offset depends on your
application. Measure from the end of the
rail to the where the door bracket attaches
to the boomerang arm. The angle of the
boomerang arm changes (which changes the
measurement) depending on your application
(like the height it is mounted above opening)
• If you do have the available space you can
mount one opener on the side wall and one on
the ceiling.
• It is very important to not allow both operators
to function at the same time, otherwise they
will bind and possibly cause damage. It is vital
that the wicket switches are installed for safety
purposes

terminal
16. Put the strain relief back and tighten to prevent
wire displacement
17. Connect the blue wire to “gn” terminal
18. Connect the brown wire to “rt” terminal
19. Close the housing in reverse order
Wicket Switch Installation
Note: This is for bypassing applications only.
The wicket switch door safety device prevents
both doors from operating at the same time. The
black wicket device must be installed so the switch
is reliably triggered each time, for example it can
engage with the door, door hardware or motor itself.
• The wicket switches are wired into the opposite
motor carriage. For example the wicket
installed for the left door is wired into the right
motor carriage
• It is up to the installer to nd a proper way to
engage the switch
• It is up to the installer to nd a safe and secure
way to run the wicket switch cable since the
motor carriages move. The recommended way
is to secure the cable to the top of the door so
it will move with the door/motor and be routed
up the arm to the motor (this prevents loose
hanging cables and zip ties are an easy way to
secure wire)
• The contact command is at 12 V/10 mA. The
normally closed contact is potential-neutral
• Wicket switch video:https://www.youtube.com/
