4.1. Programming for Learn Button Systems

This method applies to garage door openers with a colored 'Learn' button (Purple, Red/Orange, Green, Yellow).

1. Locate the 'Learn' button on your garage door opener motor unit. The button is usually on the back or side panel of the motor unit.
2. Press and immediately release the 'Learn' button on your garage door opener. The LED indicator on the opener will light up, indicating it is in programming mode. You have approximately 30 seconds to complete the next step.
3. On your Acvoce remote, press and hold the desired button (Button 1 or Button 2) that you wish to program.
4. Continue holding the remote button until the garage door opener's light flashes or you hear two clicks. This indicates successful programming.
5. Release the button on the remote.
6. Test the remote by pressing the programmed button. The garage door should activate.

4.2. Programming for Dip Switch Systems

This method applies to older garage door openers that use a series of small switches (dip switches) for coding.

1. Locate the dip switches on your existing garage door opener remote or on the garage door opener motor unit itself. Note the position of each switch (ON/OFF or +/0/-).
2. Open the battery cover on your Acvoce SM24-LT remote to access its internal dip switches.
3. Carefully match the positions of the dip switches on your Acvoce remote to the positions of the dip switches on your existing remote or opener unit. Ensure an exact match.
4. Close the battery cover on the Acvoce remote.
5. Test the remote by pressing the desired button. The garage door should activate.

Once programmed, operating your Acvoce SM24-LT remote is straightforward:

• Opening/Closing: Press the programmed button on the remote once to open or close your garage door.

6. Maintenance

6.1. Battery Replacement

The Acvoce SM24-LT remote uses a CR2032 lithium coin cell battery. When the remote's range decreases or the LED indicator fails to light up, it's time to replace the battery.

1. Locate the battery cover on the back of the remote.
2. Use a small screwdriver or coin to gently pry open the battery cover.
3. Remove the old CR2032 battery.
4. Insert a new CR2032 battery with the positive (+) side facing up.
5. Snap the battery cover back into place.
6. Test the remote to ensure it is functioning correctly.
