This manual contains IMPORTANT SAFETY information. DO NOT PROCEED WITH THE INSTALLATION UNTIL READING THE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY.
START BY READING THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Failure to comply with the following instructions may result in serious injury or property damage.
- Read and follow all instructions carefully.
- The garage door opener is designed and tested to offer safe service provided it is installed and operated in strict accordance with the instructions in this manual.
WARNING: A possible risk to personal safety or property damage exists.
- Keep the garage door balanced. Do not let the garage door opener compensate for a binding or sticking garage door. Sticking, binding or unbalanced doors must be repaired before installing this opener.
- The opener must not be used on a wicket door (door within a door).
- Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while installing or servicing a garage door opener. Wear gloves and suitable protective clothing where appropriate.
- The Protector System™™ must be used for all installations where the closing force as measured on the bottom of the door is over 400 N (40 kgf). Excessive force will interfere with the proper operation of the safety reverse system or damage the garage door.
- To avoid serious injury from entanglement, remove all ropes, chains and locks connected to the garage door before installing the door opener.
- After installation, ensure that the parts of the door do not extend over public footpaths or roads.
- Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local building and electrical codes.
- Install the wireless wall control (or any additional wall control) in a location where the garage door is visible, away from moving parts, at a height of at least 1.5 m and out of the reach of children. Do not allow children to operate push buttons or transmitters. Serious personal injury from a closing garage door may result from misuse of the opener.
- Frequently examine the door installation. In particular examine cable, springs and mountings for signs of wear, damage or imbalance. Do not use if repair or adjustment is needed since springs and hardware are under extreme tension and a fault can cause serious personal injury.
- The safety reverse system test is very important. Your garage door MUST reverse on contact with a 40 mm obstacle placed on the floor. Failure to properly adjust the opener may result in serious injury from a closing garage door. Repeat the test once a month and make any necessary adjustments.
- Permanently fasten the warning labels in prominent places, adjacent to wall controls and manual release mechanisms as a reminder of safe operating procedures.
- This appliance should not be used by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or a lack of experience & knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
- Activate opener only when the door is in full view, free of obstructions and the opener is properly adjusted. No one should enter or leave the garage while the door is in motion.
- Automatic Drive - Keep away from the area of the door as it may operate unexpectedly.
- Do not allow children to play near the door or with door controls.
- If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.
- Disconnect electric power to the garage door opener before making repairs or removing covers.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: If your garage has no service entrance door, we recommend an outside quick release must be installed. This accessory allows manual operation of the garage door from outside in case of power failure.

STANDARD INSTALLATION COMPLETE
18 INSTALL THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM™
NOTE: This accessory must be used for all MyQ installations and all other installations where the closing force as measured on the bottom of the door is over 400 N (40 kgf).
SPECIAL NOTE: Merlin strongly recommends that The Protector System™™™ be installed on all garage door openers.
SAFETY BEAMS: By installing Safety Beams, an open door is prevented from closing if a person or object is located in the beam area. If the door is already closing, it will return to the open position. A closed door is not prevented from opening.
If the Protector System™™™ is installed and needs to be removed, the opener will need to be reprogrammed (refer to paragraph 9 of the troubleshooting section on page 23).
Assembly Process:
To prevent entrapment, install Safety Beams no higher than 100 mm above the floor. Disconnect power to the garage door opener before installing Safety Beams.
Diagrams (fig. 1, fig. 2) show the Safety Beams assembly, mounting brackets, sensors, and cable routing.
- The Safety Beams are supplied preassembled, complete with two sensors, wiring and wall brackets.
- Install the mounting brackets and sensors to either side of the inside of the garage door, and at a height of no greater than 100 mm off the garage floor.
- The brackets are designed to be used for Wall or Floor fixing, with a variety of hole combinations to achieve the desired results (fig 1).
- Drill the required holes and install the brackets with wall plugs and screws provided. Ensure they do not obstruct the door movement.
- Align the Safety Beams to face each other and tighten if necessary. The wiring should exit from the bottom of the housing to maintain the correct IP rating and continued operation.
- One sensor is a Sending Eye, the other is a Receiving Eye. Try to avoid positioning these in direct sunlight as this may interfere with the operation of the beams.
Install Cabling:
- Run both sets of Safety Beam cables up the door tracks, across the door header and back to the Power Head (see fig 2 & 4).
- Clean the contact area with alcohol wipes (provided) and secure the self-adhesive Cable Mounts to the rails. Attach the cable with cable ties.
- Ensure the cable is well supported and does not interfere or get damaged by movement of the door panels or spring hardware.
Connect cable to the Opener:
Disconnect the mains Power from the Opener.
Diagrams (fig. 3, fig. 4, fig. 5) show the connection points and wiring.
- At the Powerhead Control Panel remove the plastic break out (see fig 3) to expose the “External Accessory Terminal Block".
- Twist both WHITE wires together and both GREY wires together.
- Connect the WHITES to the white mark screw terminal of the 2-way connector, and the GREYS to the grey mark screw terminal (see fig 4).
- Push the 2-way connector into the control panel quick release terminals B & C (see fig 5).
- Ensure the white wires go to B and the grey wires go to C.
- Loop and secure the excess cabling above the opener assembly.
Test the Safety Beam operation:
- Remove all obstacles from the path of the door. Connect the mains Power to the opener.
- Using a remote control, check the Opener operates in both directions.
- Obstruct the beams with the door fully OPEN, the door should not move and the Courtesy light will Flash 10 times.
- Obstruct the beams with the door travelling DOWN, the door should STOP and return to the UP position. The Courtesy light will Flash 10 times.
- Obstruct the beams with the door travelling UP, the door should continue to the OPEN position.
Status indicators on the Safety Beams:
- Normal Operation: Red LEDs “ON” constantly.
- Low standby Mode: Red LEDs “OFF”. (Leds activate when door moves.)
- Safety Beams misaligned: Red LEDs “FLASH”.
- Safety Beams obstructed: Red LEDs “FLASH”.
For further diagnostics, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section at the rear of the Opener Handbook (on page 23).
Emergency Overide:
NOTE: The door can't be closed using the MyQ app if an obstruction of Safety Beam failure has occurred. However, if needed, the door can be closed by using the programmed button of a Wireless Wall Control (E138M), Keyless Entry Keypad (E840M) or the Control button located on the bottom of the opener.
Follow the process below:
- With the door open Press the programmed button once and release.
- Press and “HOLD” the button again, and continue to HOLD until the door has completely closed.
NOTE: If the button is released at any point during the downward movement, the door will stop and return to the OPEN position. In this case repeat the previous process again. The “DOOR CLOSE” process will need to be performed each time the door needs to be CLOSED, until the obstruction is removed or repairs are made to the Safety Beam System.

Illustration of an Apple iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch device.
Step 4 - Changing Merlin MyQ® App Security Settings
You can change the SECURITY SETTINGS (see steps 5 & 6) of the Merlin MyQ® app to allow quicker access to your devices and account. The default security setting for the app is at the highest level. You must enter your email and password credentials every time to launch the app or to access and change your account settings. The security settings apply to each individual phone, so each phone tied to the same account must be configured separately. These settings do not affect the web page login. A four-Digit PASSCODE can be created in place of your email and password credentials. See “Creating a Passcode" below.
Default Merlin MyQ® App Security Settings
- Launching App – high security is initially set to ON. You must enter your email and password credentials every time the app is launched. Setting this to OFF allows the app to launch without requiring your credentials or a 4-digit passcode.
- Accessing Account – high security is initially set to OFF. This lets you access your account settings without requiring your credentials or a 4-digit passcode. Setting this to ON will require you to enter the email & password credentials every time you want to access your account settings.
- Touch ID -Touch ID is a fingerprint security login, that is available for Apple users with the fingerprint feature incorporated. When Touch ID is set for login, the user will see a fingerprint on the login screen.
Note: Touch ID is available on iPhone 5S or later and iPad Pro, iPad Air 2, or iPad mini 3 or later.
- Opening Door – high security initially set to OFF. If you turn it ON, you must enter your email and password credentials or a 4-digit passcode every time you want to use the app to open your door. Setting this to OFF lets you open your door without requiring your credentials or a 4-digit passcode. It is strongly recommended that if you turn OFF the security settings for launching the app, you set this function to ON and create a 4-digit passcode for opening the door. This prevents anyone from using your phone to get into your garage.
Creating a Passcode
- The passcode is four characters (numbers or letters, depending on your smartphone).

These settings must be checked and properly set when the opener is installed. Weather conditions may cause some minor changes in the door operation, requiring some re-adjustments, particularly during the first year of operation. Refer to limit and force setting in, section 14.
Follow the instructions carefully and repeat the safety reverse test after any adjustment.
Transmitter:
Additional transmitters can be purchased at any time. Refer to gomerlin.com.au or gomerlin.co.nz for compatible transmitters. Any new transmitters must be programmed into the opener.
Transmitter battery:
If the transmission range decreases, replace the battery.

27 TROUBLESHOOTING
DIAGNOSTIC CODE | SYMPTOM | POSSIBLE RESOLUTION | |
---|---|---|---|
LED 1 | LED 3 | ||
1 | 1 | The garage door opener will not close and the courtesy light flashes. | Safety sensors are open circuit or wires may be cut. Inspect sensor wires for a disconnected or cut wire. Turn power off and reboot the opener. |
1 | 2 | The garage door opener will not close and the courtesy light flashes. | There is a short circuit wire for the safety sensors. Inspect safety sensor wire at all staple points and replace wire or correct as needed. Turn power off and reboot the opener. |
1 | 3 | The door control will not function. | The wires for the door control are shorted or the door control is faulty. Inspect safety sensor wire at all staple points and connection points and replace wire or correct as needed. |
1 | 4 | The garage door opener will not close and the courtesy light flashes. | Safety sensors are misaligned or were momentarily obstructed. Realign both sensors to ensure both LEDs are steady and not flickering. Make sure nothing is hanging or mounted on the door that would interrupt the sensors path while closing. |
1 | 5 | There is no door movement or motor accelerates before stopping suddenly. | No RPM pulses have been detected. Check the door manually for balance, binding or obstructions. Internally the possible cause may be the motor, logic board or RPM sensor. Try resetting door travel limits. Contact service centre. |
2 | 1 | Opener fails to operate. | Possible PCB memory failure. Reboot opener by turning the mains power OFF and then ON after 15 seconds. Reprogram the door travel limits and force settings. Contact service centre. |
2 | 2 | Opener fails to operate. | Possible PCB Voltage failure. Reboot opener by turning the mains power OFF and then ON after 15 seconds. Reprogram the door travel limits and force settings. Contact service centre. |
2 | 4 | Opener fails to operate using the remote controls | Possible receiver failure. Reboot opener by turning the mains power OFF and then ON after 15 seconds. Recode the transmitters. Contact service centre. |
4 | 1 | Door is moving down, stops and reverses. | Manually open and close the door. Check for binding or obstructions, such as a broken spring or door lock. If the door is binding or sticking contact a trained door systems technician. If door is not binding or sticking, reset the limits (refer to "Program the Travel Limits and Force" section). |
4 | 2 | Door is moving up, stops and reverses. | Manually open and close the door. Check for binding or obstructions, such as a broken spring or door lock.

Repeat safety reverse test after adjustments. |
|
9 | Door reverses for no apparent reason and opener lights flash 10 times: | Check the Protector System™™ (if you have installed this accessory). If the red light on the beam is flashing, the alignment is incorrect. The red light on the beams may not be on if the opener is in Standby mode. Activate the door to temporarily exit standby mode and check lights are on constantly. If the LEDs are flashing, realign the beams. If the Protector System™™ is installed and needs to be removed, the Opener will need to be reprogrammed as follows: Note: MyQ Internet Activation will no longer function. • Remove the IR Beam wiring from the opener • Turn the power OFF for 5 seconds • Turn the power ON for 5 seconds • Again turn the power OFF for 5 seconds • Turn the power back on and test the opener for normal operation. |
|
10 | The opener strains to operate the door: | The door may be out of balance or the springs may be broken. Close the door and use the manual release to disconnect the door.
