idrive™ Retro-fit Installation
Step 1: Extension Spring Relief
Raise the door to the fully open position and clamp locking pliers to the back legs of both vertical tracks, below
the bottom rollers to prevent the door from falling (see Fig. 1). By opening the door, you release most of the
spring tension. Carefully unfasten the S-hook from the horizontal angle. Remove the counterbalance cable.
Leave extension spring with it’s sheave installed. Repeat for the other side.
WARNING COUNTERBALANCE SPRING TENSION MUST BE RELIEVED BEFORE RE-
MOVING ANY HARDWARE. A POWERFUL SPRING RELEASING IT’S ENERGY SUDDENLY CAN
CAUSE SEVERE, EVEN FATAL INJURY.
NOTE: Only remove springs when door is in the up position and visegrip pliers are attached to the
track.

NOTE: If no obstructions interfere with the door when manually opened and closed, proceed to Step 24 a.
However, if an object such as a ceiling beam obstructed the door from opening completely, set a custom upper
limit during the install routine, Step 24 b.
NOTE: The door must be in its fully closed position and the disconnect handle must be in the motor operated
position (upper position) to initiate the install routine.
Step 24 a: Install routine with standard upper limit
Press and hold the profile button for five (5) seconds. The opener will beep twice, indicating the activation of
the install routine, release the profile button. The door will now move to the full open position and stop. Then,

Step 25: Detent Adjustment (if required)
IMPORTANT! - FOR SYSTEM SECURITY: The motor is de-
signed to pivot down after the door closes completely. If the motor
does not pivot or pivots too soon, the detent may need to be adjusted
in order for the door lock feature to work properly.
DETENT PIN
IMPORTANT! Before making any detent pin adjustments, check
and adjust door balance. Door should not raise off of floor with
spring tension alone, nor should it free fall from any open posi-
tion.
The normal amount of pressure the opener uses to pivot the motor
downward is preset at the factory via the detent pin adjustment
screw. Due to variations in door installations, a detent pin adjust-
ment may be needed in order to properly pivot the motor.
A.) If the motor does not pivot down, or pivots down only partially, the detent pin is set too hard. Using a flat
head screwdriver, turn the detent pin COUNTER CLOCKWISE in 1/4 turn increments. Operate the door to
confirm each adjustment. If the motor does not pivot on door closing adjust detent pin again. Repeat procedure
until motor pivots to full down position when the door is completely closed.
B.) If the motor pivots down prematurely (before the door is completely closed) or if the motor is “slapping”
too aggressively against the top of the door, the detent pin is set too soft. Using a flat head screwdriver, turn
the detent pin CLOCKWISE in 1/4 turn increments. Operate the door to confirm each adjustment. If the motor
pivots to soon, adjust detent pin again. Repeat procedure until motor pivots to full down position when the

rapidly, causing a severe or fatal injury.
7. KEEP THE GARAGE DOOR PROPERLY BALANCED. See the owner’s manual included with the door.
An improperly balanced door could cause a severe or fatal injury. Have a qualified service person make repairs
to the cables, spring assemblies, and other hardware.
8. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Door activation: Upon activation by either the wall station up/down button or transmitter, the door will move in
the following manner:
1. If closed, the door will open. If open, the door will close.
2. If closing, the door will stop, reverse, and return to the open position. Next activation will close the door.
3. If opening, the door will stop. Next activation will close the door.
4. If an obstruction is encountered or an out-of-balance condition is detected while the door is closing, the door
will reverse, return to the open position, and the opener will beep (3) or (4) times. The next activation will close
the door.
5. If an obstruction is encountered or an out-of-balance condition is detected while opening the door, the door will

the door. If an out-of-balance condition causes the
door to stop while opening or reverses the door while
closing, applying constant pressure to the up/down
button until the door is fully open or closed will allow
the opener to move the door in this condition until the problem is
corrected. See Troubleshooting.
UP/DOWN
If a severe out-of-balance condition causes the door to stop while
closing, the door can ONLY be lowered by the following proce-
dure:
TIMER
PET
PROFILE
Multiple activations of the up/down button will lower the door
incrementally. Continue this process until the door is completely closed.
WARNING FAILURE TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS/REPAIRS, COULD RESULT IN SEVERE OR
FATAL INJURY.
WARNING DO NOT USE THE EMERGENCY DISCONNECT TO LOWER THE DOOR. THE
DOOR COULD FALL RAPIDLY CAUSING A SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY.
The severe out-of-balance condition must be corrected before the door can be reactivated: Contact a qualified
service person immediately.
Momentarily pressing the light button turns on the light fixture. The light fixture will remain on until
either the light button is pressed again or the door is activated. The light fixture automatically turns
on with a door activation and remains on for five minutes thereafter. Pressing the light fixture button
before the five minutes has elapsed will turn off the light fixture. While the door is in motion, the light
button functions identically as the up/down button, stopping or reversing the door immediately.
Momentarily pressing the timer button causes a delayed activation of a stationary fully open door.
The opener will signal seven beeps (approx. 8 seconds) then beep constantly for two seconds prior to
closing the door. Allow enough time to exit the garage when the opener is in the timer mode. Pressing
any button, except for the profile button while the opener is beeping cancels the timer mode. NOTE:
The timer feature will only function with the door in the full open position. Pressing the timer
button with a stationary door in any other position will cause the opener to beep four times and the door
will not be activated. While the door is in motion, the timer button functions identically as the up/down button,
stopping or reversing the door immediately.
Pressing the pet button opens a closed door to a preset position between eight and thirty inches above
the floor, allowing pets to enter and exit the garage without the door being fully open. The door must
be fully closed to activate the pet open feature. Pressing the pet button with a stationary door in the
pet open position will cause the door to close. Pressing the up/down button while the door is in the
pet position will cause the door to open. While the door is in motion, the pet button functions identically to the
up/down button, stopping or reversing the door immediately. The pet feature allows for custom setting of the pet
position door height. See Step 27: Custom Settings.
NOTICE: A door in the “pet position” (open 8-30 inches) is not locked and should not be used as a secured
door position.
Pressing and holding the profile button for five (5) seconds will initiate the “Install Routine”. Refer
back to Step 24 for complete Install Routine instructions and functions. The wall station LED will
light while any wall station button remains pressed. See Maintenance section for battery replacement.
NOTE: Refer to Step 23 for wall station programming instructions.

Manual Door Operation Emergency Disconnect:
WARNINGKEEPTHE GARAGE DOOR PROPERLYBALANCED. AN IMPROPERLYBALANCED
DOOR COULD CAUSE A SEVERE INJURY. HAVE A QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSON MAKE REPAIRS
TO CABLES, SPRING ASSEMBLIES, AND OTHER HARDWARE.
WARNINGTHE EMERGENCY DISCONNECT SHOULD ONLY BE USED WHEN THE DOOR IS
CLOSED. USE EXTREME CAUTION IF OPERATING THE EMERGENCY DISCONNECT ON AN OPEN
DOOR. WEAK OR BROKEN SPRING(S) MAY ALLOW THE DOOR TO FALL RAPIDLY, CAUSING A
SEVERE OR FATAL INJURY.
The opener is equipped with an emergency disconnect that allows the door to be moved manually and independent
from the opener.
With the door closed, pull down on the disconnect handle and place the handle under the lower section of the
handle bracket. This motion causes the motor on the opener to pivot upwards and the opener to disconnect from
the torque tube.
Releasing the disconnect handle from the lower section on the handle bracket and returning the handle to its original
position will reconnect the opener to the torque tube.
NOTE: The motor will not pivot down completely when the handle is released. After one motorized up/down
door cycle, the motor will once again pivot down, and all cable slack will be taken up. The garage door is
not locked, secure from forced entry, until the motor is back in the down position.
DISCONNECTED, MOTOR UP POSITION
MOTOR DOWN POSITION (DOOR LOCKED)
Disconnect Label: The label is located next to the disconnect handle.
The adjacent view shows the handle in both the motor operated and
manual operated positions. View on the left side of the label shows the
handle position when the opener is engaged to the torque tube. The
view on the right side of the label shows the handle when the opener is
disconnected from the torque tube.
NOTE: Use extreme caution if disconnecting. The emergency discon-
nect should not be used when the door is in the open position. Weak
or broken spring(s) may allow the door to fall rapidly causing a severe
or fatal injury.

Maintenance:
Monthly Maintenance:
1. With door fully closed, manually operate the door with the emergency disconnect in the manual door oper-
ated position. If the door feels unbalanced or binds, have a qualified service person repair or make adjustments
to the door.
2. Perform the contact/obstruction tests. See Step 29 for the contact/obstruction test instructions. Inability to
activate a door using the transmitter or wall station may be caused by a weak or dead battery. Press and hold
the activation button on either the transmitter or the wall station. If the LED does not light, this is an indica-
tion that the battery is weak or dead. Replace the battery.
NOTE: Dispose of dead batteries properly.
Battery replacement:
Insert a coin in the coin slot of the transmitter or wall station and twist coin to access the dead battery. Replace
the battery, being careful to match the positive (+) symbols on the circuit boards with the battery.
