Does this transmitter have 9 dip switches or 8? My opener board lost 'learning' ability. Need the 9 pin transmitter.

Mine is a 9 pin dip switch. Are you sure your battery is ok because the unit doesn't work when the battery is low.

I bought an extra transmitter, so I have the receiver (installed in the Wall), plus two transmitters. They all seem to work together. However I had to buy a whole second switch set--I could not find any where to buy just a transmitter.

it has ten DIP Switches that toggle if your system uses a ten pin switch remote this will probably work.. The switches are internal and you will have to open up the remote case to set the switches, but it only takes a very small Phillips Head Screw driver to do so... it is quite easy to set the swtiches

After much consternation and doing the same thing, I started from scratch and read that after setting dip switches, taking out and putting in batteries, etc., the opener is in the learn mode. But they don't tell you to push the learn mode button in the opener and then push the transmitter. Once that was done, the exit function of the wireless exit worked. So, put the opener in learn mode again and then push transmitter button and hold it for 5 secs.

That's kind of a vague question, but I'll answer the best I can. There are four dip switches under the battery covers that allow you to switch between 16 different channels the units use to communicate. If all four switched are off, that's channel one. 1 on, 2,3,4 off, that's channel two. And so on and so on. As long as each transceiver has the exact same dip switch setting, they'll communicate just fine. Does that answer your question?

No, this garage door opener only works with the older DIP switch opener models. The opener unit has a 8 pin DIP switch setting and this controller has an 8 pin DIP switch which is set to the same setting. The controller will then work with that opener.

hi! i dont' want to presume that you are new but if you are, welcome to the hobby! its addictive.I suspect I know what the problem is. The receiver (where you put your binding pin) has a series of switches where you can select 1, 2 or three. If those are misadjusted that could cause the problem you are describing. Please tell me what transmitter you are using and send me a picture of the receiver switches martinjberger@gmail.com

I am sorry, but I have no clue what a DIP switch is. I can say that this remote works great and I am extremely pleased with it.

There are no dip switches on this model this one set's remotely with the garage sensor board.

It can replace 2 different door openers and can use the learn button for the one and the dip switches for the other. Mine was older and used dip switches. My opener had up down and middle positions. The remote can only "see" up or down. So I had to reset my opener at the motor and then set the remote to the same settings. I only use the one side. There are instructions for both in the box and also online. Good luck. I've been happy with mine.

Answer is no for dip switches, but works with older style Craftsman/Liftmaster/Chamberlain with a GREEN programming button

Hi Nancy, It actually works with the dip switches you currently have in your receiver. I have 2 doors and it operates both. All you have to do is mount it and you're done! Example: your dip switches are slate to ON using 1468. Your code to open the door would be 8641 START. It's that easy! Truly happy with this purchase. Hope this helps.

Inside the remote control (the front lower face plate pops off) there is a small set of switches. They are on/off switches. They must be set to the same setting as the device being operated. This is similar to the older style garage door controls. I believe it is a row of 8 switches (possibly 10?). The switches are white on a red housing. After setting, replace the lower face plate. Done.

Yes I have 2 dip switch controllers and two firefly controllers, they all work on the same opener.

it doesn't work with openers that have the magic button. it only works with openers that are programmed via dipswitch

You should check the compatibility between the system on your door and remote control. They should use the same frequency. Then configure the 10 switches with the same combination on / off between the door and its remote control. If the system installed on the door and remote control operate at the same frequency and has the dip switches with the same combination and still does not work, then try to configure your remote combinations backwards, ie, place the switches you have in on to off and viceversa. These switches represent a digital 0 or 1 and maybe the remote control and your door system use a different convention between what means an open or close switch in terms of digital 0 or 1. Good luck

No, this one is for dip switches only. They have other remotes for the "learn" button ones
