PROGRAMMING SWITCHES
There are seven programming switches located at the top of the CMDX. They are used to set up the
operation of the remote system and to enter the programming mode to program additional transmitters. For
output A momentary and output B latching the switch for that channel should be ON. For toggling momentary
outputs the switch for the channel should be OFF. Switch 7 is used for programming additional transmitters,
covered below in detail.
Switch #1
Select operation mode. (changes output 1A and 1B, momentary or momentary/latch)
Switch #2

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Should the transmitter function become weak or erratic, the battery in the key chain transmitter may be
weak. An indication of a weak battery is that the red indicator may have a dim glow to it when any button is
pressed. The battery is replaced in the following manner:
1.
Use a small, straight screwdriver to pry the two halves apart at the key ring attachment.
2.
Carefully separate the two case halves.
3.
Remove the battery, noting the (+) and (-) position.
4.
Replace the battery with a new 12 volt type GP23A battery which is available at most electronic stores
(Radio Shack, battery stores, etc.).
5.
Carefully replace the top cover and snap the two pieces together.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR TESTING AND PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS
All of the transmitters to be programmed into the system should be available. This sequence will erase
any previously programmed transmitters. If a transmitter is lost or stolen, go through the programming sequence
with the remaining transmitters and the lost one will be erased. The programming light is located next to terminal
strip, next to the ground connection. The IGN terminal must be connected to enter the programming/testing mode
as well as the power and ground terminals.
Placing receiver into programming/testing mode.
1. Turn Switch #7 on.
2. Turn on the ignition switch(applying power to the IGN terminal).
3. The red programming light should come on and remain on steady.
Testing the transmitters.
4. Press button V. The programming light should flash as long as the button is held.
5. Press button I. The programming light will flash if the transmitter is currently programmed in. This will
also resyncronize the transmitter with the decoder. The number of flashes will indicate the transmitter
number.
Programming the transmitters.
6. Turn Switch #7 off. The programming light should go off.
7. Press and release button number III. The programming light should come on.
8. Press and release button number III again. The programming light should flash and then go out. It will
flash once for the first transmitter, twice for the second, etc.
