  2. Page 2: Fixed Code/Dip Switch Programming

CHANGING BLINK RATE PATTERNS

BLUE LED Blink Rate Mode 1: Factory Default Setting (Blink Rate ‐ Once every 3 sec)

  • With only (1) AAA battery installed ‐ hold down the TOP DOOR button while simultaneously installing the second AAA battery. Continue to hold the TOP DOOR button for a total of 10 seconds until the blue LEDs on the OTHER 2 BUTTONS blink 3 times in unison.

BLUE LED Blink Rate Mode 2
(Faster Blink Rate ‐ Once every 2 seconds)

  • With only (1) AAA battery installed ‐ hold down the MIDDLE DOOR button while simultaneously installing the second AAA battery. Continue to hold the MIDDLE DOOR button for a total of 10 seconds until the blue LEDs on the OTHER 2 BUTTONS blink 3 times in unison.

BLUE LED Blink Rate Mode 3
(Blue LED OFF ‐ Maximum Battery Life)

  • With only (1) AAA battery installed – hold down the BOTTOM DOOR button while simultaneously installing the second AAA battery. Continue to hold the BOTTOOM DOOR button for a total of 10 seconds until the blue LEDS on the OTHER 2 BUTTONS blink 3 times in unison.

Changes made to the blue LED blink rate pattern will impact battery life. For best battery life, see Blink Rate Mode 3 to turn LEDs off completely.

DIP SWITCH / FIXED CODE PROGRAMMING

If the opener has a group of switches with 3 positions per switch (TRINARY):

  • Switch in the UP (+) position = press button 1
  • Switch in the MIDDLE (0) position = press button 2
  • Switch in the DOWN (‐) position = press button 3

If the opener has a group of switches with 2 positions per switch (BINARY):

  • Switch in the UP (+) position = press button 1
  • Switch in the DOWN (‐) position = press button 3

Step 1: Record Switch Positions

Each shaded box below represents a switch position. In these boxes, write in the number 1, 2 or 3 as it corresponds to the +, 0, or – switch position shown on the remote, opener or receiver. If you have less than 12 switches, only fill in what you have. You will reference this section in STEP 3.5 below.

Step 2: Determine Specifications

Find your specification from CHART B below and record the number here: This box should say 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5. You will reference this in STEP 3.3 below.

Genie-41550R-Universal-Wireless-Wall-Console-FIG-5

Step 3: Programming

  1. Remove activation tab from inside battery compartment.
  2. Press and hold down the DELAY button for @10 seconds until only a green LED lights on the top button ‐ then release. The green LED will continue flashing.
  3. Press your DOOR button of choice the required number of times that corresponds with your opener from Chart B above (recorded answer from STEP 2).
  4. Press the DELAY button one time to signal the entry is complete. The green LED will blink rapidly indicating it is ready to receive the recorded switch positions from STEP 1.
  5. Enter the switch positions that you determined in STEP 1 above (a series of DOOR button presses – 1, 2 or 3).
  6. After you have entered the final switch position, press and release the DELAY button ONE time to signal the entry is complete.
  7. Test the button – the next DOOR button press should activate the opener.
