CONTACT REVERSE TEST
The force adjustments and limit switch settings
MUST BE COMPLETED before testing.
1. Testing.
• Open garage door using Wall Control.
– Place a 2" x 4" board (laid flat) under center
of garage door opening (FIG. 6-6)
• Close door using Wall Control.
• When door contacts board, the door must stop 
(within 2 seconds) and reverse direction 
returning to open position.
2. Adjustment.
• If the door does not properly reverse.
– Check to see if door has "close" limit 
programmed. It should not have reached its 
"close" limit before hitting board.
– If the door STOPS but does not reverse, 
decrease "CLOSE FORCE" control 
setting slightly (turn it counter-clockwise).
• Test again. Repeat as necessary until door 
reverses upon contacting board.
