garage. The Auto-Close timer only starts after the Safety Beam's path is broken. If the safety beam path is not broken, the door will remain open
until the path is broken. If the opener incurs a physical obstruction (i.e. not from the Safety Beams) while closing the door, it will re-open and not
Auto-Close until the Safety Beam's path is broken again.

The auxiliary output can be used to control alarm or another garage door
opener. A valid transmission from the pre-coded transmitter will cause the
auxiliary output to pulse for approximately 1 (one) second. The maximum DC
voltage must not exceed 35 volts DC. Maximum current must not exceed 80 ma.
The auxillary output can also be programmed
with a PG3 programmer to Control the
