INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MODEL 4120 TWO-CHANNEL TRANSMITTER
Congratulations! You have just purchased a MULTI-CODE Digital Transmitter, which we believe to be the finest product of its kind on the market. With little care, this transmitter should provide you with many years of excellent service. Please take a moment to read the following instructions and you will find that setting your new transmitter will be quite an easy matter.
ACCESSING THE CODE SWITCH
Insert a small coin into the slot located at the bottom end of the transmitter. Twist the coin and remove the access cover to expose the code switches and battery compartment.
CODING
Before placing your transmitter into service, we urge you to set your codes, in order not to interfere with neighboring systems, and to provide security for your own system. You will note that the model 4120 transmitter has two, ten position code switches (see figure 1). We strongly urge that several coding schemes be avoided: ALL ON; ALL OFF; 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 ON; 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 ON. These positions are similar to our or other manufacturer’s test positions or are frequently used.
If you have two single-channel receivers: Set your transmitter so that the ten position switch on side A will match your receiver #1. Set the ten position switch on transmitter side B to your receiver #2 (see figure 2).
If you have a MULTI-CODE™ 3021 or 3028 two-channel receiver: Set the receiver
and transmitter (side A and B) code switch positions 1-9 to match. The 10th
position on your transmitter code switches is used for channel selection.
Channel 1 on the receiver is selected by moving the 10th position of the
transmitter side A to the off (open) position. Channel 2 is selected by moving
the 10th position of the transmitter side B to the on (closed) position. Once
the codes have been set, check the operation and replace the lower cover.
TRANSMITTER INSTALLATION
The transmitter is completely self-contained, including a battery, and can be operated while mounted in the car. It is supplied with a clip for attaching to the sun visor if desired. If the clip is used, attach to the case by sliding it into the recess provided on the back of the transmitter until the small dimples fit into the holes in the clip.
