NOTE:
A new battery in the hand-held transmitter may allow quicker and easier training due to a more accurate transmission of the radio frequency signal.
- Verify the hand-held transmitter is operative.
- Turn the key to the ON position.
- Prepare for programming the universal transmitter by erasing all 3 channels by holding down the 2 outside buttons until the red light begins to flash (20-30 seconds). Release both buttons.
- Select 1 of the 3 universal transmitter buttons to be used for programming.
- Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter 25-76 mm (1-3 in) away from the front surface of the universal transmitter so that the universal transmitter red light can still be seen.
- At the same time, press the hand-held transmitter button and the desired button on the universal transmitter until the red light on the universal transmitter flashes first slowly, and then rapidly. Release both buttons when the rapid flashing begins. The universal transmitter has successfully learned the new frequency signal and can be used in place of the hand-held transmitter(s). Release both buttons.
- To operate, press the selected button on the universal transmitter. The red light is on while the signal is being transmitted.
- To program additional hand-held transmitters repeat Steps 3-6.
NOTE:
During programming, the hand-held transmitter may automatically stop transmitting after 2 seconds, which may not be long enough to program the universal transmitter. If programming with this type of hand-held transmitter, continue to hold the button on the universal transmitter while pressing and releasing the hand-held transmitter button every 2 seconds.
NOTE:
If the device does not operate after programming, follow the Training a Garage Door Opener Equipped With "Rolling Codes" procedure below.
