Wire the Control Panel

Connect Power

Use the following guide to test power to the module sealed in the door panel, and install.

1. Place the new door panel upright, close to the intended power outlet on
   the job order.

2. Use a plastic putty knife to carefully pry the Service Panel Frame, and
   unscrew the Component Cover to access the spooled wire connected to the myQ® Logic Board. IMPORTANT: Do not pull on the wire connection.

3. Thread the wire through the Control Panel poke hole, hinge side, on the job order.

4. Strip 1/4″ insulation at the unconnected wire end.

5. Connect the stripped Black wire to NEGATIVE and the stripped Red wire to POSITIVE on the adapter.

6. Connect the adapter to an extension cord, and plug in to the outlet. The adapter LED glows red.
   Remove logic board cover globally
   

7. Press the power switch on. The power LED glows green.

8. Check the infrared (IR) receiver, center above portal panels, glows green. The module is powered.

9. Switch off the module, unplug and disconnect the adapter, and tape down the wire to the hinge stile.

10. Set the wired middle hinge aside, and install the top and bottom, load-bearing hinges.

11. At the middle hinge, drill a 1/4″ hole into the hinge jamb, and another out through the interior wall by the frame to thread the hinge wire through, and out the interior side. Tip: Tape down the threaded wire.

12. Untape the hinge stile wire, and crimp/ connect it to the hinge wire. Gently push the connection back into the hinge jamb hole. Install the wired middle hinge to the door.
