Accessories
Auxiliary Output
The auxiliary output can be used to control alarm or another garage door
opener. A valid transmission from the pre-coded transmitter will cause the
auxiliary output to pulse for approximately 1 (one) second. The maximum DC
voltage must not exceed 35 volts DC. Maximum current must not exceed 80 ma.
Keyswitch Connection
The RDO-1V4 has the input to connect bell switch or keyswitch to open or close
the door.
Remote Aerial
Some sites cause poor radio reception. Particularly problematic areas are
those where there is a large amount of metal, like a steel garage, or an
underground car park with large masses of steel reinforced concrete. These
issues, and others, can create reception issues.
Poor radio reception will be noticed by a reduction in the operating range of
the transmitters.
You can evaluate whether fitting an external aerial will benefit as follows;
- Test the maximum operating range of the transmitter with the garage door closed; then
- Test the maximum operating range of the transmitter with the garage door open.
If the range improves when the door is open you can install a remote aerial
kit to improve reception.
Mount the aerial to a suitable location on the outside of the garage.
Similar to a television aerial, the better the mounting position the better
the reception will be. Where possible, mount the aerial as high as possible,
away from masses of metal and in line of sight position, to where you normally
use your transmitter.
Auto-Close (CAD PD Only)
Safety Beams
A Safety Beam Kit may be fitted to this opener. When this option is fitted, the operation of this device is such that if an object (i.e car, child etc) blocks the Infra-Red beam, then the garage door opener will not close the door automatically. If the Safety Beam is fitted but not operating coreectly, then the door once opened automatically, will not close automatically.
Auto Close Option
Auto-Close mode is a function that automatically closes the door a preset time
after the Safety Beams recognise that a vehicle has left the garage. The Auto-
Close timer only starts after the Safety Beam’s path is broken. If the safety
beam path is not broken, the door will remain open until the path is broken.
If the opener incurs a physical obstruction (i.e. not from the Safety Beams)
while closing the door, it will re-open and not Auto-Close until the Safety
Beam’s path is broken again.
To enable the Auto-Close function remove the light diffuser from the opener
and remove the AUTO-CLS (ACLS) shunt next to the programmer input and place
over both ACLS inputs. When this option is selected the garage door opener
will attempt to close the door automatically 30 seconds after opening. Refit
the light diffuser.
WARNING! It is compulsory to have Safety Beams installed when using Auto- Close mode.

Service Checklist
Preventative servicing of your garage door and opener, is just as important as
servicing your car. Much like the engine of your car, your garage door is made
up of numerous moving parts designed to lift and lower your door safely and
efficiently.
Ongoing preventative servicing ensures that your door continues to function
within factory specifications, greatly reduces the risk of failure and repair
bills down the track and ensures you maintain your Warranty.
Run the Safety Testing procedures MONTHLY in Section 11 to ensure garage door
is fit for use.
WARNING! Failure to maintain your your garage door voids the warranty on your garage door opener.
DO NOT DO IT YOURSELF
DIY Door adjustments should only be carried out by experienced persons, as
this function can be dangerous if not performed under strict safety
procedures.

Battery Replacement
Battery Type
3V Lithium Battery CR2032.
To test the battery is working, press andhold a transmitter button. Check
Light Status table to determine if battery needs replacing
Light Status | Battery Status |
---|---|
Solid | OK |
Flashing | Requires replacement |
No light | Requires replacement |
Use finger nails to separate the transmitter casing to expose circuit board.
Use a non-metallic object (e.g. pen) to remove the battery.
WARNING! Chemical Burn Hazard. Keep batteries away from children.
Battery Disposal
When batteries reach the end of their usual life in accordance with Australian
Battery Recycling Initiative please follow the next simple steps for
protecting the environment. Refer to the Automatic Technology website for
information on where to recycle batteries in Australia.
DO NOT throw the batteries in municipal waste. This symbol of the crossed out wheeled bin indicates that the battery should not be placed in the municipal waste. Check your local regulations for appropriate disposal of the batteries.
Recycling all batteries will have other environmental and social benefits
- Some batteries are less toxic but hazardous for other reasons. Lithium batteries can explode or catch fire in landfill, while button cells are dangerous if swallowed by children. Recycling offers a safe and environmentally responsible solution for end of life batteries.
- Battery recycling recovers non-renewable materials such as lead, cadmium, stella, zinc, manganese, cobalt, silver, plastics and rare earth elements.
- Removal of batteries and other hazardous household products from household waste facilitates the recovery of organic materials through alternative waste technologies such as composting. Batteries and heavy metals are known contaminants in compost.
- The community supports recycling because it reduces waste to landfill and achieves environmental benefits.
WARNING! Prior to disposal, recycling, or collection, all battery terminals must be securely insulated with a non conductive material to prevent any two batteries from short circuiting and generating heat during storage or transport. Battery terminals may be insulated with electrical tape; or batteries may be individually packaged in a non conductive material (e.g., plastic bag or original packaging).
