Genie Door Opener Programming

More info in work doc.

To program, open the door half way. Lock turnbuckle in holder. Use a belt-drive door opener, so that the belt can be 3D printed later on.

Make sure you are in the unlocked position on the wall console to start programming.

Press down the down (-) button long. It does not matter what the light scheme in the indicator lights is. After 2 second hold, release button, and blue light will flash.

Move the door into the closed position, using down and up as needed for adjustment. Do not go too far, you may just crush the door.

Critical: you have only 30 seconds to do this before timeout! (Not sure whether it is 30 seconds of inactivity, or 30 seconds total - check)

When door is in fully closed position - hit the 'set' button (the third button).

Do the same for the door open position. Start from the bottom position.

Note that at any time, you can move the door up or down with the manual controls on the powerhead - by long-pressing the up or down button. This engages the limit-setting mode.

Therefore, you can adjust the upper or lower limit at any time. These both don't have to be done at the same time. If you want to fine tune one limit, you don't need to change the other limit.

Safety light emitter stops the door from lowering if triggered by someone walking over it.

Heavier than normal blockage reverses the lowering - such as someone or something trapped under door. Blockage stops motion when raising.

Force is factory set. Opening and closing door fully sets the correct force. Only if blockage of some sort arises will force need to be fine tuned, see manual.

Battery backup unit - install it with power to the head off.

Quality control: once wired, LEDs light on the motion sensors. Wall unit lights up. Light can be switched on and off on the wall unit. Can lock the opener on the wall unit. Meaning it will not move.
