Programming the Timer
To change the time, hold the button down for one second (until
you hear a beep). You are now in programming mode. Any
subsequent beep represents an additional minute the door is to
remain open.
For example, to program the device for 10 minutes:
1) Hold the button down for one second until you hear a beep.
2) Continue holding down the button until you count 10 more
beeps (1 beep for each minute).
3) Release the button. The device will play a tune representing
that it has just been programmed and is now enabled.
Note: Programming the timer automatically enables the device.
Note: Low battery warning is a quick 3-beep chirp.
Disabling/Enabling the Timer
Disabling the timer is useful if you want the door to remain open
indefinitely. It is easy to disable the timer and enable it again. To
toggle between enabled and disabled:
1) Hold the button down until you hear a single beep.
2) Release the button.
3) Listen for the tune being played.
Device Enabled: A scale increasing in pitch played, first
slowly and then fast.
Device Disabled: A scale in decreasing pitch played at a fast
rate, followed by the same scale played at a slower rate.
Note: If you hold the button down too long and hear a second (or
more) beeps, you are programming the timer delay (see
Programming the Timer). Make sure you set the desired delay.
Changing Detect-Open/Detect Closed Modes
Garage Guardian was designed primarily for garage door openers
where the door is closest to the opener when the door is fully
open (common to those found in the USA). However, it can be
used in many other types of door/gate/garage applications.
In some of these other configurations, the door/gate is closest to
the opener when the door is closed. Installing the device where
it would instead “see” the door/gate only when it is closed
(rather than open) is more convenient. This mode must also be
used for outdoor installations where thick fog may be present.
In order to support such an installation location, the device
needs to have its mode of operation changed (from “Detect
Open”, to “Detect Closed”).
To change the “Detect-Open/Detect Closed”:
1) Remove the lid. (It just pulls off.)
2) Touch the black wire to (only) the silver
colored pad shown.
3) Listen for the response:
1 Beep: The device is in Detect-Open
mode
2 Beeps: The device is in Detect-Closed
mode
4) Reattach the lid.
To prevent possible SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH, operate the door
ONLY under supervision. Do not allow any objects or persons to
cross or obstruct the path of travel of the door in motion.
