10. TRANSMITTERS
TRANSMITTERS (Fig. 35):
A family of state-of-the-art transmitters, each transmitter is custom
encoded with installed battery. Offered in two styles to suit your personal
preference.
• Mini (2-or 4-channel)
• Micro (3-channel) with keyring attachment.
TRANSMITTER MOUNTING:
The transmitters can be conveniently mounted inside your
car using the visor clip or on the wall using the mounting plate.
Visor Clip (Fig. 36)
• Snap visor clip into transmitter.
• Affix assembly to visor.
NOTE: If you do not need the visor clip, install the visor compartment cover.
Mounting Plate (Fig. 37)
• Secure the mounting plate to area of preference using screw and anchor.
• Snap the visor compartment cover.
• Slide the transmitter into the mounting plate, which will hold it firmly
in place.
MULTIPLE TRANSMITTERS (Fig. 38):
Each transmitter comes factory programmed with random codes. 2-
channel transmitters have 2 different random codes, one per button, 3-
channel transmitters have 3 different random codes and 4-channel
transmitters have 4 different random codes, one per button. Transmitters
that are purchased separately as accessories have random codes that must
be changed in order to match the code of the “active” transmitter, which
you are already using. Below are instructions for transferring an active
code from a button on one transmitter to a button of your choice on
another transmitter.
• Connect the transmitter with active code to the new transmitter using the
programming connector (see Fig. 38).
• Press and hold the selected channel button on the transmitter with the
active code.
• Press and hold the respective channel button on the new transmitter. The
light in the transmitter initially starts blinking and then illuminates
continuously after 1-2 sec. Code transfer is completed.
• Programming connector can be removed and both transmitters can now
be used to operate the same opener.
NOTE: For multi-button transmitters, be sure to carry out this procedure for
all the buttons you desire to use.
CHANGING THE CODE (Fig. 39):
The transmitter factory preset code can be changed as follows:
• Insert the programming connector into transmitter terminal.
• Short one of the outer pins of the programming connector with the
middle pin.
• Press and hold the respective channel button. The light will blink rapidly
for approximately 5 sec. Release the button after the light illuminates
continuously. Code will change in approximately 2 seconds.
• Remove the programming connector.
• Once the transmitter code is changed, the operator must be recoded with
the new transmitter code as described on the initial system set up page 19.
NOTE: For multi-button transmitters, be sure to carry out this
procedure for all the buttons you desire to use.
