how does the unit know when to stop so it docent keep pulling after the door is all the way up? does it have only one setting of travel?

There are 2 limit switches that you will set when you install your door. The switches stop the up or down motion of the door and also reverse the motor so it goes the opposite direction when power is applied to the motor again. Hope this helps.

I have 2 of these - one on each coop, and they have worked great. Adjustable rotational tabs that actuate a cam-toggle-switch set the upper and lower limits (i.e. opening height). The motor must be installed higher than the "up" position of the door. The line length then needs to be set (e.g. cinched and looped onto a screw head is my suggested approach) based on door height, travel distance, and location of attachment on the door.

I bought mine as a back up for my auto door that I purchased. There are u tube videos on replacing the line that show how to adjust the length of the lime. Hope it helps.

No it doesn't, you have to pull the door closed again. However, if you try and walk through the screen because you didn't realize it was closed it will automatically open, LOL.

You can stop it at any point. Clips underneath the unit lock it into place. We have 8 employees that use them here and they love the

You need to adjust the Low Stop(its in the chain track) with a phillips screwdriver. Move it up a little away from the door. I also had some issues with this adjustment.

It's a tilt. When the door i open (sensor flat) it blinks red for open. When door is down (sensor up and down) it blinks green for closed.

It will not hold the door firmly in one place like a door stop. It can be set to swing the door open or swing the door closed. You can adjust how fast and hard it does this with a set screw. I use one of these hinges in the center of my junky, builder's grade pressed cardboard bathroom door and it gently swings it closed. You can use multiple hinges and set the tension higher for heavier doors or for a more forceful close. Basically, it's just a door hinge with a coil spring on the pin. There is no mechanism on the hinge itself to lock the door in one position. You are just adjusting the tension to open or close the hinge. I think it works well for it's intended purpose.

It is a manual opening. However, there is a point when opening it where it wants to open all the way.

I would check the stop on the door end of the track to make sure that it hasn't moved. It gets adjusted when the door opener is installed with the door in the closed position. Its purpose is to turn off the opener as the door touches the floor. If it doesn't, the opener detects excessive downforce as the door pushes against the floor and reverses itself. Check the install instructions to learn how to adjust the stop.

You push them to about the half-way point & then they will self close the rest of the way. They do NOT slow close. What this also means is that these hinges allow the door to stay open at any point until about the half-way point. Hope this helps.

My unit has only stopped about three foot from complete. I pulled it out 20 or more feet then walked in very fast and it worked properly. I cannot add more since mine has not locked up totally.

Hello Steve, Good Question....The Unit Is Set Up To Actually Do The Reverse. It Will Alert You Once It Leaves A Geo-fence Area. But You Can Do One Of Two Things To Accomplish What You Are Trying To Do. 1- You Can Set The Unit On No Move And Once It Moves You Can Watch It In Intervals To See If The Unit Enters The Area. 2- Once The Tracker Reaches The Area You Are Talking About, Then Set Your GeofenCe And YouR Intervals, Then The Tracker Will Alert You When It Is Out Of That Area.....Once It Returns To That Area It Will Stop Alerting You. Hope This Answers Your Question. Thank you.

There is a switch on the side to select 1. On all the time 2. Off all the time and 3. Comes on when motion is detected. In the motion detected mode, the light will stay on a minute or so with no new motion detected or stay on with continuous motion detected. A great feature is that it can tell when a room light is already on and doesn't come on at all. The unit is very sensitive and if pointed toward the doorway of a room will turn on every time someone passes. To fix that we simple angle the unit away from the doorway so that it only turns on when someone is actually in the room.

The motor has a pull string that frees the shaft and allows manual movement of the door. The unit does have an available battery backup as well.

You pull the lever up and reajust the gate when you close the gate. It's as easy as that. I love this gate because it doesn't budge when you the lever goes down. I use it to keep my little schnauzer from falling down the stairs. I just recommended this gate to keep my niece from doing the same.

You have to pull the door handle all the way to the "up" position, otherwise it will fall back down and lock.

You control the closing with your foot. Nothing automatically stops it, but it doesn't slam down abruptly either. Specially if you have a little trash bag, this softens the closing.
