Model: TM433DS

Introduction

This manual provides detailed instructions for the setup, operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your FAAC TM2 433DS Remote Control Garage Door Opener. Please read this manual thoroughly before using the device to ensure proper function and longevity.

Setup and Programming

1. Battery Installation

The FAAC TM2 433DS remote control requires two Lithium batteries, which are typically included. To install or replace batteries:

  1. Carefully open the remote control casing. This may involve removing a small screw or gently prying open the two halves.
  2. Locate the battery compartment.
  3. Insert the two Lithium batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-) as indicated inside the compartment.
  4. Close the remote control casing securely.

2. Programming the Remote Control (DIP Switches)

The FAAC TM2 433DS remote control uses DIP switches for programming. To program your new remote, you will need to match the DIP switch settings of an existing, working remote or your garage door opener receiver.

  1. Open the casing of your new FAAC TM2 433DS remote control.
  2. Locate the bank of small switches, known as DIP switches, on the circuit board.
  3. If you have an existing, working remote: Open its casing and observe the position of its DIP switches (ON/OFF or 1/0).
  4. If you are programming directly from the receiver: Refer to your garage door opener's manual to locate its DIP switches and note their positions.
  5. Carefully adjust the DIP switches on your new FAAC TM2 433DS remote control to exactly match the settings of the existing remote or receiver. Use a small, non-conductive tool if necessary.
  6. Once the DIP switches are set, close the remote control casing securely.
  7. Test the remote control to ensure it operates your garage door opener correctly.

Note: If your garage door opener does not use DIP switches, or if you encounter difficulties, consult your garage door opener's specific programming instructions or contact a qualified technician.

Operating Instructions

The FAAC TM2 433DS remote control features two buttons for operation.

  • Opening/Closing the Garage Door: Press one of the two buttons on the remote control. The garage door will begin to open or close. Pressing the button again during operation will typically stop the door. A third press will reverse its direction.
  • Range: The maximum effective range for this remote control is approximately 10 meters. Ensure you are within this range for reliable operation. Obstructions can reduce the effective range.

Ensure there are no obstructions in the path of the garage door before and during operation to prevent damage or injury.

Maintenance

If the remote control's range decreases significantly or it stops responding, the batteries may need replacement. Refer to the "Battery Installation" section under Setup for detailed instructions. Always use two new Lithium batteries of the specified type.
