Troubleshooting (continued) Symptom Possible Causes Diagnosis Resolution LCD wall control is off or not functioning (display shows nothing or is unlit, and wall control is unresponsive) (end) Faulty wiring Perform this test only after verifying main board WALL CTRL terminals. Verify wall control wiring: Disconnect wires from wall control and measure the DC voltage on the wiring at the end near the wall control. If voltage is absent or out of range, turn off power to operator and disconnect batteries if present. Wait 30 seconds and then reconnect batteries and reapply AC power. If fault persists, replace or repair wall control wiring. If voltage is not between 11 and 13 volts DC, wiring is faulty. Faulty wall control Perform this test only after verifying Replace faulty wall control. wall control wiring. Check voltage at wall control: With a voltmeter, test for 12VDC at the screw terminals on the rear of the wall control. If 12V is present and wall control is not active, wall control is faulty. If 12V is absent only when the wall control is connected, wall control may have internal short circuit. Main board DC IN fuses blow immediately upon powerup Stray wiring/metal contacting main board Visually inspect E-box. Check for any metallic objects or bare wires that may be inadvertently touching the main board. Prevent metallic objects or bare wires from touching the main board. Turn power off and replace fuses, then re-apply power. Internal short on main board Turn off AC power. Disconnect all wiring from main board except DC IN power wiring. Replace fuses and reapply power. If fuses still blow immediately, fault is in main board. replace main board Door moves in wrong direction when pressing up/ down buttons Reverse mounting mode configured wrong (reverse limits) Check the setting for the reverse mounting mode (reverse limits) ensure the setting is correct Wiring for open and close terminals swapped (does not apply to LCD wall control) Check that open button is connected to OPEN terminal and close button is connected to CLOSE terminal. Correct wiring. (ONLY applies to units with Battery Backup) Unit reports that it is on battery power even when AC power is present AC power path issues AC input voltage mis-selected (120V/240V models only) Disconnect batteries, check if powerhead main board powers off. Check whether the transformer connector is plugged in to the connectors on the EMI filter board marked '120V' or '240V.' If powerhead main board loses power, leave batteries disconnected and follow troubleshooting for 'Powerhead main board is off' Note that if incorrect voltage is applied to the operator, damage to the operator electronics may have occurred. AC power out of range Verify this matches the input AC voltage supplied to the operator. Ensure voltage selection is correct and verify operator functionality. Verify input AC voltage: Measure AC voltage between 'L1' and 'L2' terminals at EMI filter board input connector. Verify voltage is within specifications. If voltage is outside specifications, see resolution. Ensure the circuit supplying the operator is the correct voltage class for the operator (e.g. 120V, 240V, or 480V) If voltage is out of specification for the circuit, consult an electrician. 48

Troubleshooting (continued)
Symptom
Possible Causes
Diagnosis
Resolution
LCD wall control
is off or not
functioning
(display shows
nothing or is unlit,
and wall control is
unresponsive)
(end)
Faulty wiring
Perform this test only after verifying
main board WALL CTRL terminals.
Verify wall control wiring:
Disconnect wires from wall control
and measure the DC voltage on
the wiring at the end near the wall
control.
If voltage is not between 11 and 13
volts DC, wiring is faulty.
If voltage is absent or out of range,
turn off power to operator and
disconnect batteries if present. Wait
30 seconds and then reconnect
batteries and reapply AC power.
If fault persists, replace or repair
wall control wiring.
Faulty wall control
Perform this test only after verifying
wall control wiring.
Check voltage at wall control:
With a voltmeter, test for 12VDC at
the screw terminals on the rear of
the wall control. If 12V is present and
wall control is not active, wall control
is faulty.
If 12V is absent only when the wall
control is connected, wall control
may have internal short circuit.
Replace faulty wall control.
Main board DC
IN fuses blow
immediately upon
powerup
Stray wiring/metal
contacting main
board
Visually inspect E-box. Check for
any metallic objects or bare wires
that may be inadvertently touching
the main board.
Prevent metallic objects or bare
wires from touching the main board.
Turn power off and replace fuses,
then re-apply power.
Internal short on
main board
Turn off AC power. Disconnect all
wiring from main board except DC
IN power wiring. Replace fuses and
reapply power. If fuses still blow
immediately, fault is in main board.
replace main board
Door moves in
wrong direction
when pressing up/
down buttons
Reverse mounting
mode configured
wrong (reverse
limits)
Check the setting for the reverse
mounting mode (reverse limits)
ensure the setting is correct
Wiring for
open and close
terminals swapped
(does not apply to
LCD wall control)
Check that open button is
connected to OPEN terminal and
close button is connected to CLOSE
terminal.
Correct wiring.
(ONLY applies to
units with Battery
Backup)
Unit reports that it
is on battery power
even when AC
power is present
AC power path
issues
Disconnect batteries, check if
powerhead main board powers off.
If powerhead main board loses
power, leave batteries disconnected
and follow troubleshooting for
'Powerhead main board is off'
AC input voltage
mis-selected
(120V/240V
models only)
Check whether the transformer
connector is plugged in to the
connectors on the EMI filter board
marked '120V' or '240V.'
Verify this matches the input AC
voltage supplied to the operator.
Note that if incorrect voltage is
applied to the operator, damage to
the operator electronics may have
occurred.
Ensure voltage selection is correct
and verify operator functionality.
AC power out of
range
Verify input AC voltage:
Measure AC voltage between 'L1'
and 'L2' terminals at EMI filter board
input connector. Verify voltage is
within specifications.
If voltage is outside specifications,
see resolution.
Ensure the circuit supplying the
operator is the correct voltage class
for the operator (e.g. 120V, 240V,
or 480V)
If voltage is out of specification for
the circuit, consult an electrician.
