Technical specifications for the Genie Aladdin Connect identify it as a retrofit controller compliant with UL 325 safety standards. The system utilizes a battery-powered Door Position Sensor (DPS) featuring tilt-sensor logic to verify the physical state of the garage door. The internal PCB contains a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi radio and a Bluetooth LE chip for commissioning.
Performance metrics demonstrate the ability to control up to three separate doors through a single hub with the addition of individual sensors. The hardware is designed to interface with most openers manufactured after 1993 by pulsing the wall console inputs with an encrypted signal. Material analysis confirms the use of a CR2450 battery for the sensor, which provides high-cycle reliability but may show reduced throughput in sub-zero conditions.
Feature highlights include:
- Support: Up to 3 door sensors.
- Compatibility: Post-1993 standard motors.
- Detection: Physical tilt-sensor verification.
For users requiring integrated video monitoring at the entry point, the myQ Smart Garage Door Keypad with Camera offers a combined visual and access control alternative.
This unit is categorized within dedicated home automation controllers, specifically for perimeter access management.
