Frequently Asked Questions - 041A79283MC CHAMBERLAIN

How to install the myQ control panel?

First, cut the power to the opener. Remove the old wall control, noting the polarity of the wires (red and white). Connect the wires of the new panel to the corresponding terminals (red to red, white to white). Mount the panel on the wall at least 1.5 m high. Restore power: the yellow LED flashes during charging (up to 5 minutes), then stays on. Test by pressing the push bar.

Is my opener compatible with this control panel?

The myQ control panel is compatible with Chamberlain Security+™ openers manufactured between 1998 and present. It is NOT compatible with Security+ 2.0™ models. If the yellow and red LEDs flash slowly, the opener is not compatible.

How to program a remote control on the control panel?

Press the LEARN button on the control panel twice (the red LED lights up). Then press the button on the desired remote control. The opener light flashes (or two clicks are heard) to confirm programming. You can program up to 12 Security+ 2.0 remote controls.

How to activate the lock function (LOCK)?

Press and hold the LOCK button for 2 seconds. The control LED flashes to indicate that the lock is active. In locked mode, portable remote controls cannot operate the door (except Chamberlain keypads). To deactivate, repeat the operation.

The Timer-to-Close (TTC) is not working, what to do?

Make sure the safety reversing sensors are properly installed and aligned. If the door encounters two consecutive obstructions, the TTC function disables. Also check that the door is not a rigid or swinging door (TTC incompatible). To reactivate TTC, press ON until an LED lights up, then press again to select the interval.

How to connect the Chamberlain Internet gateway to Wi-Fi?

The Internet gateway requires a wired Ethernet connection via an RJ45 cable. If you only have a Wi-Fi signal, you must use a wireless Ethernet adapter (not included). Plug the gateway into the power outlet: the green LED stays solid when the Internet connection is established. Create an account on www.mychamberlain.com (from a computer) and register the gateway with its serial number.

Can I control my garage door from my smartphone?

Yes, after installing the Chamberlain Internet gateway and creating a myQ account, download the myQ app from the App Store or Google Play. You can then open/close the door, monitor its status, and schedule alerts. Make sure the control panel is programmed to the gateway (follow the steps in the manual).

What to do if the yellow LED on the control panel does not light up?

Check the wiring: the red and white wires must be connected to the corresponding terminals. If necessary, reverse the wires. If the problem persists, replace the wires with appropriate gauge wires. If the yellow and red LEDs flash slowly, the opener is not compatible. If they flash quickly, the panel is charging (wait up to 5 minutes).

How to erase all remote control codes from memory?

Press and hold the LEARN button on the garage door opener (not the control panel) for about 6 seconds until the LED turns off. All remote controls and remote lockout devices are erased. To also erase myQ accessories, repeat the operation immediately after (press again for 6 seconds).

What to do if my myQ app cannot connect?

Check that the Internet gateway is properly plugged in and its green LED is solid. If the green LED flashes, the gateway has an IP address but cannot access the Internet: check your router and connection. If the LED is off, the router is not assigning an IP address. Also make sure the control panel is properly programmed to the gateway (see manual). Contact customer service if necessary.

USER MANUAL 041A79283MC CHAMBERLAIN

This kit includes the myQ® Control Panel model 41A7928-3 and the Chamberlain® Internet Gateway model CIGBU.

OVERVIEW

The myQ Control Panel offers a quick and convenient way to add Security ^+ 2.0^TM and myQ technology to your existing garage door opener. myQ technology uses a 900MHz signal to provide two-way communication between the garage door opener and myQ enabled accessories.

For full compatibility, see page 4.

INSTALL THE myQ CONTROL PANEL

Install the control panel in place of the existing door control. Due to power consumption the control panel cannot be used in conjunction with another wired door control connected to your garage door opener. If an additional door control is needed, the wireless door control model 41A7773-1 can be programmed to the control panel. To program the 41A7773-1 to the control panel, follow the remote control programming steps. When in battery backup mode, any feature using unattended operation such as Timer-to-Close, closure from a garage door and gate monitor or remote operation utilizing the Chamberlain® Internet Gateway will be disabled.
