Programming the Remote
Additional Notes on Configuring and
Operating the Remote:
• When the remote is being programmed, it will
automatically time-out if no button is pressed
within a thirty-second period. The message
shown in Figure 77 will appear briefly, and the
remote will then exit the feature being pro-
grammed and any data entered will be lost.

• The programming or configuration process may
also be stopped at any time by pressing the
Clear Button . The message shown in
Figure 77 will appear, the data entered in the
current process will be lost and the remote will
return to normal operation. Any process that
was underway when the button will be pressed
must be re-started.
• Extensive use of the programming, learning
and configuration functions of the remote may
consume significantly more battery power than
normal remote operation. While the batteries
should last for four to six months in normal
operation, you may find that they need to be
changed sooner after the remote is pro-
grammed for the first time.
• When the batteries approach a level below
which the remote will not function, the
remote's LCD screen will display a
warning as shown in Figure
LOW BATTERY
78. We strongly recommend replacing the bat-
teries as soon as this message appears to
avoid the loss of programming and configura-
tion settings. These settings are not lost when
the batteries are changed quickly.

• The remote has a built-in backlight that may be
activated by pressing the Light Button
This button is made from a special "glow"
material so that it is easier to find in dark
rooms. This glow feature does not consume any
electricity, but the glow will fade when the
remote is kept in a dark location for an extend-
ed period of time. The "glow" feature may be
restored by placing the remote in normal room
light for a few hours.
• The remote's backlight will remain lit for
approximately five seconds after the Light
Button is pressed, and it will stay lit for
another five seconds if any key is pressed while
the backlight is on. You may keep the backlight
lit by holding the Light Button, but extensive
use of the backlight will reduce battery life.
• The LCD display will remain on for ten seconds
after a key is pressed and then turn off to con-
serve battery life.
• When any button is held for more than thirty
seconds the LCD will turn off and the remote
will stop transmitting the codes to conserve
battery life.
