Fixed Code

For questions or help programming the Universal Home
Remote System, call 1-866-572-2728 or go to
learcar2u.com.

Most garage door openers sold before 1996 are Fixed
Code units.

Programming a garage door opener involves
time-sensitive actions, so read the entire procedure
before starting. Otherwise, the device will time out and
the procedure will have to be repeated.

To program up to three devices:

1. To verify that the garage door opener is a Fixed

Code unit, remove the battery cover on the hand
held transmitter supplied by the manufacturer of
the garage door opener motor. If there are a row
of dip switches similar to the graphic above, the
garage door opener is a Fixed Code unit. If you
do not see a row of dip switches, return to the
previous section for Programming Universal Home
Remote

–
