Instruments and Controls
Your hand-held transmitter can
have between 8 to 12 dip
switches depending on the
brand of transmitter.
The garage door opener receiver
(motor head unit) could also
have a row of dip switches that
can be used when programming
the Universal Home Remote.
If the total number of switches
on the motor head and
hand-held transmitter are
different, or if the dip switch
settings are different, use the
dip switch settings on the motor
head unit to program the
Universal Home Remote. The
motor head dip switch settings
can also be used when the
original hand-held transmitter is
not available.

The panel of switches might not
appear exactly as they do in the
examples above, but they
should be similar.
The switch positions on the
hand-held transmitter could be
labeled as follows:
A switch in the up position
could be labeled as
Up, +, or On.
A switch in the down
position could be labeled as
Down, , or Off.
A switch in the middle
position could be labeled as
Middle, 0, or Neutral.
2. Write down the 8 to 12 switch
settings from left to right as
follows:
When a switch is in the up
position, write Left.
When a switch is in the
down position, write Right.
