3.2. Programming the Remote Control
Programming the GENIUS KILO TX2 JL remote control involves linking it to your specific gate or garage door opener receiver. The exact programming procedure can vary depending on the model of your receiver.
General steps often include:
- Access the Receiver: Locate the programming button or switch on your gate or garage door opener's receiver unit. This unit is typically located near the motor.

- Transmit Code: Within a few seconds of activating learning mode, press and hold the desired button on your new GENIUS KILO TX2 JL remote control.

- Test Operation: After programming, test the remote control by pressing the programmed button to ensure it operates your gate or garage door correctly.
Important: Always refer to the instruction manual provided with your specific gate or garage door opener system for detailed and accurate programming instructions. If you are replacing an existing remote, some systems allow for cloning from an already programmed remote.
