After turning the electrical power on, if the
STBs are not in proper alignment, the red
LED (Source) will blink continuously.
To correct the problem the brackets are
flexible and can be adjusted slightly to bring
the system into alignment.
When the STBs are in alignment the red
LED will stop blinking and stay on.
NOTE: If a problem exists with the “STB” that is
preventing the door from closing, the door can be
closed by holding the wall control button in until the
door is fully closed. (The remote control will not work.)
