Garage Door Opener Programming - Universal One LED

Important: Do not use the garage door opener (GDO) with any garage door opener that does not have the stop and reverse safety feature. This includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982.

The GDO is programmed by using the customer's hand-held transmitter(s).

Turn the ignition ON while programming the GDO transmitter. Follow these steps to program up to 3 channels:

1. If you have previously programmed a transmitter, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise, hold down the 2 outside buttons on the GDO transmitter for approximately 20 seconds, until the light on the GDO transmitter begins to flash rapidly. Then release the buttons. This procedure erases any previous settings and initializes the memory for all 3 channels.
2. Decide which of the 3 channels you want to program to the transmitter you have.
3. Hold the end of the hand-held transmitter against the front surface of the GDO (less than 1 inch) so you can still see the light.
4. Using both hands, press the hand-held transmitter button and the desired button on the GDO transmitter. Continue to hold both buttons through Step 5.

Important: The GDO is compatible with most, but not all, types and brands of transmitters. If the GDO light does not flash rapidly after 90 seconds, there may be a compatibility conflict with the transmitter used to program the GDO. Call 1-800-355-3515 in order to address this problem.

5. Hold down the buttons on both transmitters until you see the light on the GDO transmitter flash slowly and then rapidly. The rapid flashing, which could take up to 90 seconds, indicates that the GDO transmitter has been programmed. Release the buttons on both transmitters when the light starts to flash rapidly.

This procedure is for training the customer's rolling code garage door openers to their GDO transmitter. The GDO must already be programmed to its hand-held transmitter. The training process below must be completed within 30 seconds or it must be repeated.

1. Locate the train button on the garage door opener receiver. Refer to the operator's manual for the garage door opener (or call 1-800-355-3515 for assistance). Follow instructions for the garage door opener in order to determine when the unit is in train mode.
2. Return to the GDO transmitter in the vehicle, and press the button that you want trained for rolling codes 3 times, for 1 second each time. If not successfully programmed, try 2-5 seconds each time.
3. Press the button used again in order to verify that the GDO transmitter has been programmed.

You may use either the hand-held transmitter or the GDO to open the garage door.

The GDO is compatible with most, but not all, types and brands of transmitters. If the GDO light does not flash rapidly after 90 seconds, there may be a compatibility conflict with the transmitter used to program the GDO. Call 1-800-355-3515 in order to address compatibility concerns.

To erase programmed channels, hold down the 2 outside buttons until the light on the GDO transmitter begins to flash. Individual channels cannot be erased, but can be reprogrammed using the Garage Door Opener Programming and the Training GDO for Rolling Code Receivers procedures.

Garage Door Opener Programming - Universal Three LEDs

Important: Do not use the garage door opener (GDO) with any garage door opener that does not have the stop and reverse safety feature. This includes any garage door opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982.

This procedure is for training the customer's rolling code garage door openers to their GDO transmitter. The training process below must be completed within 30 seconds or it must be repeated.

1. Press the two outside buttons on the GDO for one to two seconds and immediately release them.
2. Locate the train button on the garage door opener receiver. Refer to the operator's manual for the garage door opener (or call 1-866-572-2728 for assistance). Follow instructions for the garage door opener in order to determine when the unit is in train mode.
3. Return to the GDO transmitter in the vehicle, and press the button that you want trained for rolling codes 5 to 20 seconds. The LED above the button will flash slowly. When the garage door moves, release the button. The LED will then flash rapidly until programming is complete.
4. Press the button used again in order to verify that the GDO transmitter has been programmed.

You may use either the hand-held transmitter or the GDO to open the garage door.

The GDO is compatible with most, but not all, types of garage door openers. If the GDO light does not flash rapidly after 90 seconds, there may be a compatibility conflict with the garage door opener. Call 1-866-572-2728 in order to address compatibility concerns.

This procedure is for training the customer's fixed code garage door openers to their GDO transmitter. To determine if the customer has a fixed code garage door opener, remove the battery cover on the manufacturer's supplied transmitter. If a row of dip switches is present, the garage door opener is then a fixed code version. The transmitter should have anywhere from 8 to 12 switches. The garage door opener receiver may also have a set of dip switches. If the number of switches on the receiver and on the transmitter do not match, use the receiver switches to program the GDO. Each dip switch may have either two or three positions. The two position switch can either be on or off. The three position switch can either be on, neutral, or off.

1. Write down the positions of the dip switches. The positions of the switches will be entered from left to right into the GDO using the three buttons.
2. Press all three buttons on the GDO for about three seconds and immediately release them. The LEDs should flash slowly, indicating that the GDO is in programming mode.
3. Enter the positions of the dip switches one at a time. If a position of a dip switch is on, press the left button on the GDO. If the position is neutral, press the middle button of the GDO. If the position is off, press the right button of the GDO. Enter all of the positions of the dip switches. The procedure must be completed in two and one half minutes.
4. After entering all of the switch positions, firmly press and release all three buttons at the same time. The indicator lights will turn on.
5. Press the button that you want trained to control the garage door. The LED above the button will flash slowly. You will have to hold the button from 5 to 55 seconds. When the garage door moves, release the button. The LED will then flash rapidly until programming is complete.
6. Press the button used again in order to verify that the GDO transmitter has been programmed.

You may use either the hand-held transmitter or the GDO to open the garage door.

The GDO is compatible with most, but not all, types of garage door openers. If the GDO light does not flash rapidly after 90 seconds, there may be a compatibility conflict with the garage door opener. Call 1-866-572-2728 in order to address compatibility concerns.

To erase programmed channels, hold down the 2 outside buttons until the light on the GDO transmitter begins to flash. Individual channels cannot be erased, but can be reprogrammed using the Garage Door Opener Programming and the Training GDO for Rolling Code Receivers procedures.
