Your vehicle's engine should be turned off while
programming your transmitter. Follow these steps to
program up to three channels:
1.
2.
3.
4.
-
-
If you have not previously programmed a universal
transmitter channel, proceed to Step 2. Otherwise,
hold down the two outside buttons on the universal
transmitter until the red light begins to flash rapidly
(approximately 20 seconds). Then release the
buttons. This procedure initializes the memory and
erases any previous settings for all three channels.
Hold the end of your hand-held transmitter against
the bottom surface of the universal transmitter so
that you can still see the red light.
Decide which one of the three channels you want to
program. Using both hands, press the hand-held
transmitter button and the desired button on the
universal transmitter. Continue to hold both buttons
through Step 4.
Hold down both buttons until you see the red light
on the universal transmitter flash slowly then rapidly.
The rapid flashing, which could take up to
90 seconds, indicates that the universal transmitter
has been programmed. Release both buttons three
seconds after the light starts to flash rapidly.
If you have trouble programming the universal
transmitter, make sure that you have followed the
directions exactly as described and that the batteries in
the hand-held transmitter are not dead. If you still
cannot program it, rotate your hand-held transmitter end
over end and try again. The universal transmitter may
not work with older garage door openers that do not
meet current Federal Consumer Safety Standards. If you
cannot program the transmitter after repeated attempts,
consult your Aurora retailer.
Be sure to keep your original hand-held transmitter in case
you need to erase and reprogram the universal transmitter.
Note to Canadian Owners: During programming, your
hand-held transmitter may stop transmitting after one or
two seconds. If you are programming from
one
of these
transmitters, you should press and re-press the button on
the hand-held transmitter every two seconds without
ever releasing the button on the universal transmitter.
Release both buttons three seconds after the red light on
the universal transmitter begins to flash rapidly.
Operating the Transmitter
Press and hold
the
appropriate button on the universal
transmitter. The red light comes on while the signal is
being transmitted.
Note that the effective transmission range
of the
universal transmitter may differ from your hand-held
transmitter and also from one channel to another.
