DESCRIPTION
The MegaCode series of digital receivers are wireless radio
controls designed for use with automatic garage door and gate
openers. The MegaCode radio format provides unparalleled
security. The transmitter and receiver can be programmed to more
than a million different codes.
MegaCode receivers and transmitters do not contain a typical
"coding switch". Each transmitter is pre-set at the factory to a
unique code. The receiver is programmed by sending a signal to
it from the transmitter(s) that are going to be used with it. This
stores the transmitters code into the receiver's memory. The
receiver will retain its memory even without power. The receiver
will activate only from these "memorized" transmitters. Each
MegaCode receiver can remember a maximum of 10
transmitters.
Receivers are normally powered with 24 volts AC/DC from the garage
door or gate operator. Two-channel receivers provide wire
connections to activate the operator's light or control other devices.
STEP 1B
Loosen operator terminal screws. Install receiver into operator
