4. Setup & Programming
Follow these steps to program your LAWOHO Universal Garage Door Opener Remote Control:

Step 2: Change Remote Control's LED Mode (if necessary)
The remote control has two LED working modes: Green and Red. The Green LED mode is for Purple, Red, or Orange learn buttons. The Red LED mode is for Yellow or Green learn buttons.

- Press and hold both buttons on the remote simultaneously until the LED flashes.
- Then, press the button you wish to change. The LED light will switch between Green and Red.
