Before programming, locate the Learn button on your garage door opener and the Program button on the remote control. The Learn button on the opener may be different in appearance depending on the model. It is often near the light bulb, which serves as a programming indicator.

- 2 Presses: 315 MHz Security+® (Purple Learn Button)
- 3 Presses: 390 MHz Security+® (Red/Orange Learn Button)

- To exit programming mode, press any remote control button except the one that was just programmed.
- Press and release the Learn button on the garage door opener.

Additional buttons on the remote control can be programmed to operate up to three devices, such as additional garage door openers, light controls, gate operators, or access control systems.
