MagicCloser Installation/Users Guide
MagicCloser Receiver (MC-RX) Installation
1. Introduction
To install the MagicCloser receiver (MC-RX), remove the existing garage door
switch, loosen the current wires on the switch, add the MagicCloser wires to the screws,
and re-tighten the screws with both the original wires on the switch and the new wires from
the MagicCloser. The MagicCloser receiver is installed in addition to the existing wall
switch. The red wire is connected to the positive terminal of the existing switch (commonly
brass, or gold colored). The black wire is connected to the negative terminal of the existing
wall switch (commonly silver). See figures 2 & 3 for examples.
Congratulations on the purchase of the MagicCloser Garage Doo
or Closer. The
MagicCloser is easy to install and will provide the comfort and peace of mind
that the
garage door won’t remain open indefinitely whether you’re at home or nott, as it will close
automatically after a pre-determined amount of time has been selected to suit
s your lifestyle
and needs. The MagicCloser consists of two devices. The transmitter (MC-TX) mounts on
the backside of the garage door and is powered by a coin cell battery, while the (MC-RX)
ng power from
mounts next to the existing garage door push button and utilizes the existin
your Garage door opener wall switch.
Warning
Prior to installing MagicCloser, ensure that the garage door is equip
pped with an
external entrapment protection device, such as an infrared beam sen
nsor, which can
detect an object obstructing the garage door. A garage door opener that does not
have an auto-reversing feature should be replaced by one that has th
he auto-reversing
feature. It is recommended that MagicCloser be installed on a garag
ge door with the
entrapment/auto-reversing feature. Without a functioning safety rev
versal system, a
person could be seriously injured or killed by a closing garage door..

How to Determine Current Time Setting
Press and quickly release the push-button on the
MagicCloser receiver. The MagicCloser will indicate it’s
current activation time setting by providing 1 to 8 beeps.
One beep indicates the setting to be 2 minutes, two beeps
represents 5 minutes, etc. (See table 1).

Press and quickly release the push-button on the
MagicCloser receiver. The first press and quick release
indicates the current time setting. Press and quickly release the push-button again after the
beeps are finished. The setting will advance to the next time period. Continue pressing and
quickly releasing the push-button until the number of beeps heard matches the activation
time delay setting in table #1.

A short chirp indicates
that the unit has been

indicates that the unit
has been disabled. If
you are unsure
whether or not it was a
short or long chirp just
press and hold the push-button again to compare the length of the chirp.
IMPORTANT
It is important to note that MagicCloser simply presses the garage door button for you after
a pre-determined amount of time. Therefore, if the garage door is open or partially open (
as in the case of ventaltion during the summer) the direction of the garage door is
determined by the previous travel direction before the door was stopped. Some models will
allow you to leave the garage door partially open after previously traveling in either
direction. Some models will only allow you to leave the garage door open when it was
previously traveling in the up direction. If the MagicCloser activates and the garage door
opens instead of closes the MagicCloser will re-activate and close the garage door within 1
minute as it still senses that the garage door is open.

5. Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting
The MagicCloser is blinking but I do not know when it will activate (close the garage door)?
How can I determine the activation time?
If MagicCloser is blinking and beeping with a one second interval then it is 15 to 60 seconds from
activation. If MagicCloser is blinking and beeping twice per second then it is 15 seconds or less from
activation. If MagicCloser is just blinking then it is actively counting down to activation. Activation
time ranges from one minute up to the activation time setting. If you have forgotten the activation time
setting you may press and quickly release the push button to allow the MagicCloser to indicate its
current time setting. The number of beeps refers to the time activation setting. One beep is 2 minutes, 2
beeps is 5 minutes, etc... Refer to “How to determine current time setting” above or to the chart on the
label of the MagicCloser RX. The MC-RX will restart the activation time after indicating the setting.
I have pressed and released the MagicCloser button and heard 4 beeps. This indicates the time
setting to be 15 minutes. However, before the 15 minutes have expired I decided to disable the
MagicCloser. How do I do that and how do I know if it has been disabled?
Press and hold the MagicCloser push button until a long chirp is heard and the LED turns off. If you
are uncertain if the chirp was a long chirp perform the press and hold of the push button again and
compare if it was a short or long chirp. The enabling/disabling may be done as many times as needed
to make the determination. If the LED was previously blinking and you press and hold the push button
and the LED is turned off then it was disabled. MagicCloser is not actively counting down when the
red LED is not blinking.
Why does the MagicCloser open the garage door instead of close it?
It is possible that when MagicCloser activates the garage door opens. This is possible due to the state
of how the garage door was stopped originally. If it was stopped while traveling down then activation
will open the garage door. This is temporary as MagicCloser will still see that the garage door is open
and re-activate again within 1 minute to close the garage door. This functionality is normal and should
be no cause for concern. Re-activation of the MagicCloser will close the door.
Why isn’t the LED blinking on the MagicCloser?
MagicCloser is disabled or the garage door is closed.
What does the reset pinhole switch do? And why is it needed?
The pinhole switch resets power to the MagicCloser receiver. Instead of having to disconnect wires the
reset switch is a convenient way to reset power to the receiver. At installation it is advisable to press
and hold the reset switch for 5 seconds to allow a complete reset of the receiver. This allows the
receiver to harness power from the garage door opener.
