Linear Garage Door and Gate Operator Radio Controls Quick Manual

Operational Check
After installing your receiver and transmitter, check the
operation of your radio controls by moving
approximately 45 feet back from the garage door, then
press the transmitter button. Operation at this distance
should be reliable. However, environmental conditions
and the location of the transmitter and receiver will
affect distance.
•
If the transmitter doesn't activate the operator check the
coding on both the transmitter and receiver. The code
setting must match exactly . This may necessitate a
reprogramming of the transmitter and receiver.
•
If the distance is inadequate check the battery and
replace if necessary.
•
To maximize the operating distance move the
transmitter to different locations in the car until a
satisfactory distance is achieved. Vanity mirrors on sun
visors will affect performance.
