REMOTE SYSTEM TRANSMITTER LOCK FUNCTION
Due to the long range of this system, some customers may wish to avoid accidentally pressing a button
and opening a door when they are out of sight of the vehicle. Turning Switch #3 on will enable a transmitter lock
function. Pressing buttons 1 and 3 at the same time will lock the receiver from activating any of the outputs. It
will remain locked until buttons 1 and 3 are pressed again.
When DIP switch #3 is off, this feature is disabled.
To lock the system:
1.
Press and release buttons 1 and 3 at the same time.
2.
Press one of the other buttons to verify that the system is locked.

PROGRAMMING SWITCHES
There are four programming switches located next to the main harness connector. They are used to set
up the operation of the remote system.

Switch #2
Select auxiliary output type. (momentary on or latch on/latch off)
Switch #3

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 green indicator may have a dim glow to it when any button is
pressed. The battery is replaced in the following manner:
1.
Remove the small screw on the back of the transmitter case.
2.
Carefully separate the two case halves.
3.
Remove the battery, noting the (+) and (-) position.

(Radio Shack, battery stores, etc.).
5.
Carefully replace the top cover and refasten the screw
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 the four
programming switches.
