LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Craftsman, or Raynor Wi-Fi garage door opener
LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Craftsman, and Raynor manufacture Wi-Fi-enabled garage door openers for residential and commercial environments that can be associated with Alarm.com customer accounts.
To verify if the garage door opener is Wi-Fi compatible:
Refer to the garage door opener's manual. If it is compatible with Wi-Fi:
- The manual includes Wi-Fi enrollment instructions.
- The product model number located on the end panel label includes a W (e.g., 8550W or HD950WF).
- A MyQ Serial Number may be located on the device.
- There may be a Wi-Fi icon next to the MyQ icon as shown in the following image.
Important: If the garage door opener does not include the preceding items but it has a MyQ logo with a yellow learn button, the garage door is only MyQ-enabled and requires the LiftMaster MyQ Internet Gateway to enroll with Alarm.com.
If it is verified that the garage door opener is a LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Craftsman, or Raynor Wi-Fi garage door opener, no additional equipment is needed to connect the garage door opener to Alarm.com except a consistent internet connection. If the Wi-Fi garage door opener needs to be attached to additional equipment, the garage door opener's Wi-Fi signal must be disabled in order to learn the motor into additional equipment. Instructions for disabling the opener's Wi-Fi should be found in the opener manual.
Note: If the garage motor does not include an LED light for remote operation (e.g., 8500W), one must be enrolled before remotely controlling the device on the Alarm.com customer website and Alarm.com app. Refer to the garage door opener's manual for more information.
For information about enrolling a Wi-Fi garage door opener to Alarm.com, see LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Craftsman, or Raynor Wi-Fi Garage Door Opener - Installation Guide.
