TROUBLESHOOTING NOTES
If you experience problems with the MVP-RE Receiver,
try some of the suggestions listed below before calling
the Factory Technicians.
R ECEIVER APPEARS DEAD ; THERE IS NO RESPONSE
WHEN TRANSMITTER BUTTONS ARE PUSHED .
Check the power connections to the receiver.
There must be at least 20 VAC at the receiver power
connections. (If a 24V system).
Review the code switch and the selector switch
settings then reprogram the receiver..
Try a different code switch setting.
Check the antenna installation.
Wait one minute for the receiver to “warm-up”.
Check battery in transmitter.
R ECEIVER “ CLICKS ” WHEN ANY TRANSMITTER
BUTTON IS PUSHED , BUT NOTHING ELSE HAPPENS .
Check the wire & connections in the STOP circuit.
Refer to Figure 3.
Check the OPEN & CLOSE connections.
The wire gage may be too small for the number of wall
stations used.
Check the power to the door operator.
Check the door operator’s control voltage.
S HORT DISTANCE OR INTERMITTENT OPERATION .
Relocate the antenna with a coaxial cable.
Metal objects too close to receiver, move to a better
location.
External interference (such as radio towers).
Change to a different frequency.
Stuck transmitter in building.
Change code switches from factory settings.
Check battery in transmitter.
O NE RECEIVER WORKS BUT THE OTHER IS DEAD .
Relocate the antennas.
Receivers too close together (cross-talking); move to
different locations.
Check code switch settings.
S OME THINGS TO REMEMBER :
Range is dependent on the installation, type of
building, type of door and the location of the
transmitter. When these conditions change so will the
distance.
Any transmitter can interfere with operation. These
include cell phones, cordless phones, wireless systems
and CB and mobile transmitters. Other sources of
interference include computer equipment, industrial
equipment, electric motors, fluorescent lights, etc. The
list is endless.
Do not lengthen or shorten the receiver antenna. It is
set to an optimal length based on the frequency of
operation.
If the antenna is blocked or shielded (such as a car
traveling through a tunnel) the distance will decrease.
Always change the Factory set codes.

MVP-RE COMMERCIAL RECEIVER INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLER: Leave this manual with your customer upon completion of the installation
READ THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY
BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION
MVP-RE Commercial Receivers are designed to work with most commercial door operators. Programming the
receiver to accept the transmitter signal is a matter of pushing the “LEARN” button on the receiver body and
activating the transmitter. The MVP-RE is connected to the commercial operator in the same manner as a
3-button station and provides full open, close, and stop functionality via radio control. The receiver is powered from
the operator’s 24 VAC transformer. The antenna is removable and may be relocated (using coaxial cable, not
included) for better RF reception.
