To program a new remote for the Maximum Controls MAX 1500 PRO using the WEL-200 system:

1. Install 2 AA Lithium batteries in the WEL-200T transmitter. The green LED will flash twice every two seconds.
2. Install a properly terminated edge (8.2k or 10k) to the transmitter.
3. On the WEL-200R receiver, press and hold the desired channel assignment switch until all four LEDs flash, indicating programming mode.

This pairs the transmitter (remote) with the receiver for gate control.

Page 34 CONNECTING RECEIVER (WEL-200R) TO TRANSMITTER (WEL-200T) Connecting is a two step process. First, on the receiver, press and hold the channel assignment switch until the green status LED begins rapidly flashing, then release; this will clear any existing assignment for that particular channel. Hold down the connection switch on the transmitter.
