    Thank god you made this video. I searched like crazy but the few movies I finally found were non-English.
    Also very happy with your explanation of the buttons and switches.
    Nothing about this in the manual.
    Oh and the diagram of the infrared sensors.
    So glad you showed that, I immediately took a screenshot of your video. Nowhere to be found.
    Great work dude.
    Thank you very very much. You just made my day.

    Merci pour cette video , tout est dit.
    Je rajoute une precision si vous voulez installer un interrupteur a Clé , vous pouvez si votre carte electronique dispose du connecteur OPEN/STOP/CLOSE utiliser ces 3 bornes.
    Il suffit de fermer le contact souhaité entre la borne GND (2) et OPEN pour Ouvrir, GND et CLOSE pour fermer, GND et STOP pour stopper (SOurce constructeur)

    Thank you so much for your video. It’s very helpful though.
    I’m in the process of installing a similar gate opener as yours.
    Mine is a MD370. I have a question to you if you don’t mind. I’d like to know what amperage Interruption to use, if 30A, 20A, 15A, or 10A, breaker.
    I would really appreciate your input. Blessings to you.

    My, recently delivered, ROOMARK did not have batteries for the remotes. They look like 12v the type that were used in garage door opener remotes years back. Can you advise? The included manuals are of very little help and no mention of the remote batteries

      Yes so make sure the additional remotes you buy look exactly the same as the originals and they should program fine. I haven’t had any luck programming other remotes unfortunately. I hope you are well and safe being in Florida right now!

    did you try with wifi switch? do you know if its possible to put a switch inside this motor and then operator it via phone app? Also if the answer is yes, can it work with any wifi connection or does it have to be 2.4 ghz wifi connection only? I know that most wifi switches wont work with over 2.4 ghz wifi connection

      @simplytinkerdad  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Vevor has another opener that looks just like this one that does have the Wi-Fi control built in so you can use your phone. It cost more so I didn’t buy it so I don’t have any experience with one

      I think the chain version would be best for the most part because it is very easy to set up and maintain. The rail one is probably good too just my opinion
