LED CONTROLLER PROGRAMMING

LED Controllers are shipped factory pre-programmed and ready to use. You can program most features using the LED Controller Configuration Tool on the PC or using the Mode button and 1 or 2 jumper wires.

NOTE: Programming with a jumper is easy when no computer is available. If you need to program several controllers at once you should use the PC Configuration Tool. This program is also better for
setting timers precisely.

LED AUX Behavior  / DOOR

FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
PROGRAMMING STEPS
Public Light Mode
Simplifies the Aux LED output for public-facing installations by removing safety warning and disconnect indications.
[View PDF]
Clone Mode
Enables clone mode (Main & AUX LEDs are identical). Note: Mode 2 is Clone Mode.
[View PDF]
External Relay Control - Safety
Allows Aux LED outputs to control 24VDC relays. Aux Red = Closed, Aux Green = Open, Aux Blue = Safety. Clone Mode must be disabled.
Aux Red → Open
External Relay Control - Motion
Allows Aux LED outputs to control 24VDC relays. Aux Red = Closed, Aux Green = Open, Aux Blue = In Motion. Clone Mode must be disabled.
Aux Red → Safety

Aux Input / Safety  / DOOR

FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
PROGRAMMING STEPS
Half-monitored
Supports a heartbeat greater than 10 Hz when the safety beam is not broken.
[View PDF]
Non-monitored, Basic
Supports simple on / off signal
[View PDF]
Fully Monitored
Monitored mode detects a heartbeat in both the "beam blocked" and "unblocked" states.

Aux Input / Pre-announce  / DOOR

FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
PROGRAMMING STEPS
Enable Timed Pre-Announce
LEDs will flash amber after green has been shown for a programmed amount of time
[View PDF]
Toggle Pre-Announce Signal Input
Pre-announce input to replace the default Safety function
[View PDF]

Aux Input / Delayed Door Close  / DOOR

FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
PROGRAMMING STEPS
Enable the delayed door input on Safety (Also enable AUX BLUE to close the door)
When enabled, a momentary Safety/Preannounce signal while the door is open will activate the AUX BLUE output after an adjustable delay (8 seconds by default), providing a door close command. Timed Preannounce must also be enabled.
Main Green & Main Blue → Close
To change the delay length of time, use the programming command below.
Delay time before the door close command is issued
Determines how long the door remains open before a close command is issued. Press and hold the button for the desired time. Default is 8 seconds.
Main Red & Main Green → Safety

AC Signal Options  / DOOR

FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
PROGRAMMING STEPS
Toggle AC Voltage Detection
Turns off passive AC signal detection to prevent interference with DC signal detection.
Black → Open Main Red → Safety
Remember AC Voltage Trigger for OPEN
Stores a selected AC voltage as the OPEN trigger and ignores other AC voltages. The desired port must be inverted prior to setup. This configuration will revert the inversions.
Main Blue & Main Green→ Open

Controller Options  / DOOR

FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
PROGRAMMING STEPS
Disable negative voltage detection
Before entering this command, select the ports you want to affect with inversion (GND). This will disable negative DC detection for a given port
[View PDF]
Enable PWM Detection
Before entering this command, select the ports you want to affect with inversion (GND). This will enable PWM detection for a given port.
[View PDF]
Enable Mode Button
Enabled the mode button. If already enabled, this has no effect.
[View PDF]
Disable Mode Button
Disable Mode Button and ignores any inputs
[View PDF]
Configure Safety Delay
Timer for safety beam when blocked when the door is opened before the safety triggers.
[View PDF]
Disable transition effect
Disables the transition effect of both LED outputs
[View PDF]
Set to a variable threshold
Select the inputs to affect with Ground before using this option (automatic detection)
[View PDF]
Set threshold to 0.7 V
Select the inputs to affect with Ground before using this option
[View PDF]
Set threshold to 2.5 V
Select the inputs to affect with Ground before using this option
[View PDF]
Set threshold to 8.5 V
Select the inputs to affect with Ground before using this option
[View PDF]
Set threshold to 15 V
Select the inputs to affect with Ground before using this option

Mechanical Operator Helper Features  / DOOR

FEATURE
DESCRIPTION
PROGRAMMING STEPS
Toggle between modes ... • Ignore first Safety when Door is Opened • React to first Safety when Door is Opened
Useful in old-style mechanical Liftmaster operators where safety is triggered as the door opens. This feature will ignore that signal until the signal is released.
Main Blue → Close Main Green → Open
Toggle between modes ... • Ignore Safety when Door is Closed • React to Safety when Door is Closed
Typically required to be enabled on old mechanical contactor-based operators since their operation may cause the safety to become triggered when the door is fully closed. Disabled by default.
Black → Open
