Is the Craftsman Entryease fingerprint keyless entry pad compatible with Wayne Dalton’s iDrive Torquemaster?
I recently ordered this fingerprint garage door opener (model# 53555) as well as the Craftsman Universal Receiver, 315MHz (model# 53757). Programing the fingerprint opener was straight forward. Unfortunately, I am having difficulties connecting the Univeral Receiver to my Wayne Dalton iDrive Torquemaster.
The instructions for the Universal Receiver is not very detailed. Here is the step for connecting the U.Receiver to the Motor unit:
4. Connect the other end of the bell wire to the two motor unit terminals labeled “2″ (white) and “1″ (red), “common” and “command” or the terminals used for the push button control.
I am having difficulties figuring out where to connect this end of the 2-strand bell wire to. Should it be connected to the Terminal Block (step 31, page 18 of the installation manual)?

Yes (step 31).
Lotsa times we come across different manufacturers’ wires with different color codes. This can get perplexing when you don’t know the basics and if there are more than two wires.
THE IDENTIFIED WIRE is the common grounded (not grounding) wire. It is white, gray, clear with ridges on the insulation; it looks different from the others and has a solid color.
THE SWITCHED WIRE is the one that changes voltage or resistance when the switch is actuated. It can be any color, with or without stripes–it’s the pretty one.
