Fremont Outswing Opener

Installation Manual

It is recommended that you have a low voltage electrician, or trade

member familiar with garage door installations to install the

operator. You may call us or the manufacturer to see if there is

anyone in your area familiar with the Fremont 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

information.

Page 6 Specications

Specications

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.

Note: For additional information please visit the

manufacturer’s (Sommer) manual.
