Figure 1: The Digi Code 5070 2-Button Garage Door Opener Remote. This image displays the compact, light-colored remote control with two distinct oval-shaped buttons and a small indicator light above them. A key ring loop is visible at the bottom.

The Digi Code 5070 remote features two buttons, allowing it to control two independent 300 MHz compatible receivers. Its compact design ensures portability and ease of use.

Setup and Programming

The Digi Code 5070 remote utilizes 10 ON/OFF dip switches for programming. To ensure proper operation, these switches must be set to match the corresponding dip switches on your existing garage door opener receiver.

  1. Access Dip Switches: Carefully open the casing of your Digi Code 5070 remote. This usually involves removing a small screw or prying open a seam. Locate the two sets of 10 ON/OFF dip switches inside.
  2. Identify Receiver Switches: Locate the dip switches on your garage door opener receiver. These are typically found under the light cover or on the main circuit board. Note the ON/OFF positions for each of the 10 switches.
  3. Match Switch Settings: For each of the two buttons on your remote, set one set of the 10 dip switches to exactly match the ON/OFF pattern of your receiver's dip switches. Ensure accuracy for reliable operation.
  4. Test Operation: After setting the switches, close the remote casing. Stand within range of your garage door opener and press one of the remote buttons to test its functionality. Repeat for the second button if controlling a second receiver.
  5. Troubleshooting: If the remote does not operate the door, re-verify that the dip switch settings on the remote precisely match those on the receiver. Ensure the remote's battery is functional.

Operating Instructions

Once programmed, operating your Digi Code 5070 remote is straightforward:

  • To Open/Close Door 1: Press and release the first button on the remote. The garage door or gate linked to this button will activate.
  • To Open/Close Door 2: Press and release the second button on the remote. The garage door or gate linked to this button will activate.
  • Indicator Light: A small LED indicator on the remote will illuminate when a button is pressed, confirming signal transmission.

Maintenance

Battery Replacement
