IF YOU ARE MOUNTING YOUR KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM TO ALUMINUM
SIDING
you may find it better to substitute carriage bolts for the mounting screws
supplied. Bolts should be long enough to reach into the garage, and be secured with
lockwashers and nuts. IF YOU ARE MOUNTING YOUR KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM
ONTO BRICK, STONE, OR MORTAR,
suitable anchors must be set into the mortar,
and the fasteners screwed into these.

INSTALLATION

When mounting location has been determined, drill one 1/8" pilot hole one inch (1")
deep for top screw. Insert screw into pilot hole, leaving the head of the screw exposed
about 1/8" from the wall. Slide the unit over the exposed screw so that it hangs on the
wall.

To install second mounting screw you will need to remove battery hatch and 9 volt
battery. To remove battery hatch insert flathead screwdriver with a twisting motion into
the slot provided on the bottom of keypad. Remove the battery to expose second mounting
hole. Mark the location of the pilot hole and remove keypad. Drill 1/8" pilot hole one inch
(1") deep. Replace keypad and insert screw. Reinstall battery and replace battery cover.

PROGRAMMING

Your Keyless Entry System comes with a preset factory codes (2, 4, 6, 8, 10) for the
radio code and (1, 2, 3, 4) for the 4 digit access code. We urge you to reprogram
the unit with your own personal codes to prevent tampering.

The marking of the keypad is shown in

Figure 2. The Alpha characters, numerals "0-9",

the words “radio learn” and “access learn” are printed in black on a translucent button.
The 0-9 buttons are used for the radio code and access code. You may also use the Alpha
characters to create your own personal keyword access code, so long as the keyword
does not exceed four letters. The “radio learn” and “access learn” buttons are used for
programming.

The RF Programmable Keyless Entry System has two programmable codes:

RADIO CODE PROGRAMMING

The radio code is a 10 bit digital code that is transmitted to the garage door operator. This
code must be set to match the code on the 10 position switch on the garage door
operator receiver.
To begin programming or change the radio code press the “radio
learn” key twice (The indicator LED

(see figure 2) will come on, indicating learn mode.

During the learn mode, the indicator LED will blink off with each keypress). Now enter the
present four digit access code (Note: For first time programming, this would be the
factory code 1, 2, 3, 4).
Now enter the new radio code (Note: This will be the code on
the garage door operator receiver. Only enter the corresponding numbers on the 10
position switch that are in the “on” (closed) position. Example: The 2, 5, 6, 7
positions on the receiver are “on”. You would enter 2, 5, 6, 7 for your radio code. If
the 10th position on the switch is “on” (closed), the corresponding keypress number
is 0).
Finally press the “radio learn” key to end programming sequence. If indicator LED
turns off when “radio learn” key is pressed, the new radio code has been successfully
programmed

(see example 1). If the access code was entered incorrectly during

programming, the indicator LED will blink at a fast rate for 4 seconds when the “radio
learn” key is pressed, then turn off. This indicates an error in the programming procedure
and the radio code will remain unchanged (Note: During the radio learn mode, pressing
the same key twice for the radio code will be accepted as one key press. Example: 3-
1-1-4 will be accepted as 3-1-4).
Check to see if the new radio code matches your
garage door receiver by entering factory access code (1, 2, 3, 4) at this time. If door opens,
correct radio code has been entered. If door fails to open, check code on your receiver and
reprogram radio code using the above procedure.

ACCESS CODE PROGRAMMING

To begin programming or change the access code press the “access learn” key twice (The
indicator LED will come on indicating learn mode. During the learn mode, the indicator
LED will blink off with each keypress). Now enter old access code (Note: For first time
programming, this would be the factory code 1, 2, 3, 4).
Next enter new 4 digit access
code. Finally press the “access learn” key to end programming sequence

(see example 2).

If indicator LED turns off when “access learn” key is pressed, the new access code has
been successfully programmed. If the old access code was entered incorrectly or more
than 4 keys were entered for the new code during programming, the indicator LED will
blink at a fast rate for 4 seconds when “access learn” key is pressed, then turn off. This
indicates an error in the programming procedure and the access code will remain
unchanged. (NOTE: TO RESET THE RF PROGRAMMABLE KEYLESS ENTRY TO
THE FACTORY RADIO CODE AND ACCESS CODE REMOVE 9 VOLT BATTERY
FROM UNIT, DEPRESS ANY KEY ON THE KEYPAD AND WAIT 10 SECONDS
BEFORE INSTALLING BATTERY).

The 4 digit access code can be any combination of the numeral 0-9, from 0000-9999.

During both programming modes the keypad will brighten with first keypress and will go
out 25 seconds after last keypress.

OPERATING HINTS

1) Pressing any key will cause the keypad to light up and stay on for 25 seconds from last

keypress. Your personal access code must be completely entered within 25 seconds of
the last number entered. If not, the door will not open and LED’s will go out. If you fail to
enter the entire code in the allotted time, you must re-enter the entire code. (if correct
access code is not entered within 20 keystrokes, the Programmable Keyless Entry
will “lock up” for 5 minutes. During this time all LED’s will remain off and all
keypad input is ignored).
This is a built in feature to discourage unauthorized
tampering.

2) Some door openers can be stopped, or reversed (depending on make and model) once

the door is in motion. If your door opener allows this type of function this feature is
activated by pressing any of the 12 keys a second time once your personal code has
been entered. The 12 Programmable Keyless Entry buttons are active as the
operator’s push-button for approximately 25 seconds (The keypad LED’s will flash
during these 25 seconds).

3) Over time smudges may appear on frequently used buttons. To prevent this, it is

advisable to keep your keypad clean, and to change your personal access code from
time to time.

4) If you forget your programmed access code, disconnect battery from keyless entry,

depress any key on the keypad and wait 30 seconds before installing battery. The
keyless entry will reset to the factory radio and access codes. You must reprogram
both the radio and access codes at this time.

LOW BATTERY MODE

When battery becomes weak, the system enters a low battery mode. During this mode
the LED’s will blink on with the first keypress and then turn off. The LED’s will remain off
during remaining code entry to indicate low battery condition. If the correct access code
was entered, the keypad LED’s will start flashing and the indicator LED will remain out.
The keyless entry will work approximately 20 times in the low battery mode.
