TWO CHANNEL
MINI-TRANSMITTER
Installation
Instructions
Congratulations! You have
just purchased a Mini-Code Digital Transmitter, which we believe to be the
finest product of its kind on the market. With a little care this transmitter
should provide you with many years of excellent service. Please take a moment to
read the following instructions and you will find that setting your new
transmitter will be quite an easy matter.
ACCESSING THE CODE SWITCH AND BATTERY
COMPARTMENT
The model 3083 two channel
Mini-transmitter case is composed of 2 halves which are held together by a small
Phillips head screw. Removing this screw will allow access to the code switches
and the battery compartment.
SELECTING A CODE
Before placing
your transmitter into service, we urge you to set your code in order not to
interfere with neighboring systems and to provide security for your own system.
We strongly urge that several coding schemes be avoided: ALL ON; ALL OFF;
2,4,6,8,10 ON; 1,3,5,7,9 ON. These positions are similar to our or other
manufacturer’s test positions, or are frequently used.
You will note that
the model 3083 transmitter has two, ten position code switches (Note: the
switches are in the “on” position when the switch is depressed toward the
number. In order to simplify coding of your transmitter as much as possible,
observe the following:
If you have two
single channel receivers:
Set your transmitter so that code switch #1 will match receiver #1. Set code
switch #2 on the transmitter to match receiver #2.
If you have a
MULTI-CODE 3021 or 3028 two channel receiver:
Set the receiver
and both transmitter code switch positions 1-9 to match. The tenth position on
your transmitter code switches are used for channel selection. Channel 1 on the
receiver is selected by moving the tenth position of code switch #1 on the
transmitter to the off (open) position. Channel 2 on the receiver is selected by
moving the tenth position of code switch #2 on the transmitter to the on
(closed) position. Once the codes have been set, check the operation and
reassemble the transmitter case.
MINI-TRANSMITTER INSTALLATION
Replacement battery – 12
volt alkaline lighter battery (Eveready A23 or equivalent).
The transmitter
battery can be checked or checked or changed by removing the Phillips head screw
located on the back of the case and carefully separating the case halves to
expose the circuit board and battery. Simply slide out the old battery and slide
in the new, remembering to observe the battery polarity molded on the case in
the bottom of the battery compartment. Note that if the red LED on your
transmitter fails to light you most likely have a weak or dead battery and it
should be replaced.
OPERATIONAL CHECK
To check
operation, move back a reasonable distance (about 50 ft) and press the
transmitter button. Operation should be reliable at this distance but
environment and location of both the transmitter and receiver will affect the
range. If the transmitter is stowed well out of sight, it may be necessary to
remove it from its mounting and hold near the windshield. Try different
locations and positions. If operation is still unsatisfactory, the problem may
be isolated by:
- Checking the door
operator. If the door will not open when the wall button is pressed, the
problem is likely to be the operator. If the door will open by pressing the
wall button, but not when the radio control button is pressed, the problem is
probably in the radios.
- Replacing the
transmitter battery. If after performing the above operational checks, the
controls still do not function, they should be returned to your dealer for
repair or replacement.
