INSTALLATION STEP 6

Install the Control Console

Locate control console within sight of door, at a
minimum height of 5' (1.5 m) where small children
cannot reach, away from moving parts of door and
door hardware. If installing into drywall, drill 5/32"
holes and use the anchors provided. For pre-wired
installations (as in new home construction), it may be
mounted to a single gang box (Figure 1).
CAUTION: Continuous exposure of the control
console to temperatures below -22° F (-30° C) may
damage the LCD screen.
NOTE: The functional temperature range of the
control console is between -20° C (-4° F) and 50° C
(122° F). Scroll speed of display is slower at lower
temperatures although the control console remains
fully functional.
SPECIAL NOTE: Only one 398LM can be connected
to each garage door opener. If additional wall
controls are desired to operate the same garage door
opener, it is recommended to use model 378LM
wireless wall control as the secondary control
console.
1. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from one end of

bell wire and connect to the two screw terminals
on back of control console by color: white wire to
the white (2) and white/red wire to the red (1)
(Figure 2).

2. Remove push bar cover by gently prying at the

lower/middle portion of the cover with a small
flat-head screwdriver. Fasten with 6AB x 1-1/4"
self-tapping screws (drywall installation) or
6-32 x 1" machine screws (into gang box) as
follows:
• Install bottom screw, allowing 1/8" (3 mm) to

protrude above wall surface.

• Position bottom of control console on screw head

and slide down to secure. Adjust screw for snug
fit.

• Drill and install top screw with care to avoid

cracking plastic housing. Do NOT overtighten.

• Replace cover by inserting top tabs first and then

snap cover in place.

3. (For standard installations ONLY) Run bell wire

up wall and across ceiling to motor unit. Use
insulated staples to secure wire in several places.
Do NOT pierce wire with a staple, creating a short
or open circuit.

4. Strip 7/16" (11 mm) of insulation from end of bell

wire. Connect bell wire to the quick-connect
terminals on the motor unit: white to white and
white/red to red (Figure 3).

NOTE: If you have any trouble with the operation of
the buttons, loosen the top mounting screw.
NOTE: DO NOT connect the power and operate the
opener at this time. The trolley will travel to the full
open position but will not return to the close position
until the sensor beam is connected and properly
aligned. See Safety Reversing Sensor Instructions
beginning on page 16.
