2. Hold the end of the hand
-
held transmitter against the
bottom surface of the universal transmitter so that
you can still see the red light.
3. Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Using both hands, press the hand
-
held
transmitter button and the desired button on the
universal transmitter. Continue to hold both buttons
through Step 4.
4. Hold down both buttons until you see the red light
on the universal transmitter flash rapidly. The rapid
flashing, which could take up to 90 seconds,
indicates that the universal transmitter has been
programmed. Release both buttons once the light
starts to flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the universal
transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described and that the battery in the
hand
-
held transmitter is not dead. If you still cannot
program it, rotate the hand
-
held transmitter end over end
and try again. The universal transmitter may not work
with older garage door openers that do not meet current
Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you cannot
program the transmitter after repeated attempts, consult
your dealer.
Be sure to keep the original hand
-
held transmitter
in case you need to erase and reprogram the
universal transmitter.
Operating the Transmitter
Press and hold the appropriate button on the universal
transmitter. The red light comes on while the signal is
being transmitted.
Note that the effective transmission range of the
universal transmitter may differ from the hand
-
held
transmitter and from one channel to another.
Training a Garage Opener with a
“Rolling Code” Feature
If you programmed the universal transmitter, but the
garage door will not open, and if your garage door opener
was manufactured after 1995, your garage door may have
a security feature that changes the “code” of your garage
door opener every time it is opened or closed.
