Can you program this switch to turn on automatically when the garage opens (similar to what the opener light does)?

This switch must be programmed to the associated remote control device. Perhaps door opener remote control could also be used to also program this switch. I would contact LiftMaster for advice, since there are different generations of remote controls and associated devices. All of their products do not play together. BTW, I have used this switch successfully for a couple of years to control lights in an outbuilding from within the house.

No, this remote light switch functions separately from the garage door opener, and is designed to be turned on/off with a remote clicker, or the smart phone app, or from the app on a computer.

Unfortunately, NO! Automatic programming or scheduling is desperately needed for this device.

Yes. There is a switch on the side of the control box that allows you to switch it on mannually. It works just fine.

Most garage door openers are set up the same, so I would say, Yes. But if you really want to find out, you need to match the interface signals.

the light switch works on other lighting. The garage door light is a separate issue. This light switch replaces a normal light switch for other lighting throughout the house.the light on the garage door can go out but whatever light this switch is hooked up to will stay on until turned off..You can control this light switch from your app the same as you can control the garage door from the app. Chamberlain just added a feature that alerts you when this light switch is activated

No. Each button has a corresponding pair of screw-lugs of which connect to door opener. There is no programming on this device.

No, the light is operated by the switch independent of the opener (you can even use it without an opener). The light will stay on until you turn it off.

Yes and no. The yes part has to do with a built in "hold button" that overrides the night auto-close function but the "no" part is that when it starts getting dark the unit will override the "hold" button and close the garage door anyway. Note: If you have a need to override that also (if it's getting dark-ish) and you STILL want to keep the garage door open ANYWAY, simply switch off the power using the built-in on-off switch and that will totally disable the unit - you can keep the door open as long as you like. I've had mine for several years now and it works great. Hint: When installing the unit, put it in a place where it can easily "see" the outside light levels. If you bury it deep inside your garage, it will "think" its dark all the time or that sundown is coming much sooner than is appropriate. Hope that helps ya..

I had someone install this for me, but I think to answer your question - yes... once you put in the key and turn it to open the garage, the switch will automatically move to its original position then you can remove the key.

Yes, it is very easy to reprogram the garage door opener remote. The instructions are on the garage door opener, as well as in the remote controller packagine, or you can look them up online.

If you are having it installed by an electrician you should be able to set it yup to run automatically in the event of a power failure or you can set it so that you would only turn a switch and it would come on.

Instructions should be with the remote , if not the garage opener owner's manual will have it. There is a learning button the the overhead unit. Press it until flashes, hold down which ever button you want the door to open with and usually within a few seconds the light on unit will flash. It has now learned the code. Family has three remotes and one keypad that was programmed this way.

No, it does not automatically turn on. You have to push the switch forward.

I set mine up, and have never operated it manually. I think though, I remember information on what you ask, is in the instruction sheet, that came with the switch.

No. The light is only activated by switch. You can choose to wire the fan up to a switch, but by doing so you would lose the automated feature of it while the switch is off. The fan is meant to be connected to an always live source so that it will turn itself on when it senses motion or humidity. Basically, there are 2 separated power leads on this unit. 1 for the light, and 1 for the fan.

Yes. There is a button on the switch plate, at the receiver, that you press to turn the light on or off. This unit has worked flawlessly since I installed it, about a year ago. Light and receiver are located in a outdoor shed about 120 feet from house . It is used almost nightly in winter to turn the lights on from the house.

It is independent of the garage door switch. I believe you would need to click to open the garage door and then click to turn on the switch. They will show up as two different devices when you log in to the app.

No. It works just like any other garage door opener. The trick is programming it. That's the only tricky part but it wasn't too difficult after fiddling with it.
