DESCRIPTION
The MCT-1 and MCT-2 MegaCode digital transmitters are wireless
radio controls designed for use with automatic garage/gate operators.
The MegaCode radio format provides unparalleled security. The
format provides more than a million different codes.
MegaCode transmitters and receivers do not contain a typical
“coding switch”. Each transmitter is permanently coded at the factory
to a unique code. The receiver is programmed by making it “learn”
the transmitter’s unique digital code. The receiver will activate only
from these “memorized” transmitters.
The transmitters are powered by a 9-volt battery. It should last 12 to
18 months with normal use. The red LED on the face of the
transmitter will glow when the unit is activated. When it lights dimly,
or not at all when transmitting, the battery needs to be replaced.
To conserve battery life, an internal timer limits the transmission
duration to 10 seconds if a transmitter button is held down.
FEATURES PREPARE TO USE
STEP 1 Program transmitter into receiver. R e f e r t o t h e
instructions provided with the receiver to set it into a “learning” mode.
Activate the transmitter to program it into the receiver. (Learn both
buttons, one at a time on the MCT-2 units.)
TEST EQUIPMENT
STEP 2 Test the equipment. If not already installed, connect the
receiver to the operator as described in the receiver’s installation
instructions. Be sure the door/gate area is clear. Activate the
transmitter and verify that the receiver triggers the operator.
TO REPLACE BATTERIES
When the red LED lights dimly, or not at all when transmitting, the battery
needs to be replaced. Swing the visor clip to the side to clear the battery
access door. Remove the battery access door to change the battery.
Any type of 9-volt battery can be used.

IMPORTANT !!!
Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need
in portable wireless signaling. However, there are some limitations which must be
observed.
✶ For U.S. installations only: The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and
Regulations as Part 15 devices. As such, they have limited transmitter power and
therefore limited range.
✶ A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may
be blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies,
regardless of code settings.
✶ Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.
✶ Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected
interference or fault.
✶ A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a
wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the
ultimate users.
