Door Toggle Relay Trigger on the GDO blaQ

Use a dry-contact relay or an external trigger to toggle the garage door open and closed.

The GDO blaQ extra inputs ① or ② can be configured to accept an external dry-contact trigger to toggle the garage door. This can be useful for integrating a Security+2.0 garage opener with an external system that has a relay or dry contact output.

When enabled, a momentary trigger of your relay or external dry-contact (up to 3 seconds) will trigger the toggle action on the garage door.

Wiring the Relay Trigger

  1. Connect one side of the relay output to ① or ②.
  2. Connect the other side to either of the ⚪️ white terminals.
