I need to add a second remote. Can the new remote be programmed so that the original remote and the new one operate the same outlets??

Yes. I've done just this exact set-up for different areas of house and with multiple remotes operating same outlets. If need to change, reprogram each remote to "new" outlet. Love these things because of ease of use in reassigning outlets to specific remote numbers.

It should be noted that the outlets and remotes only have 5 codes available. So the programmable claim is very limited.

Maybe you accidentally erased code previously setup for the other remote. You will probably have to reprogram it (the older remote). A very good short video showing and telling how to program it may be found at the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aORPeq9j2MM

I cannot give you a solid answer on that, but Im pretty sure if you bout two strips, one remote would work on both.

The old remote will absolutely still work! You program the remote to work with the TV, not the other way around. So you can have multiple remotes per TV. :-)

this is programmed for the remotes it comes with. I do not know if you can add to the unit, but it works great as it is.

The company says that both are possible, adding outlets or remotes. They say the added outlets or remotes can use a learning phase to all use one code. Contact the company for more details. Hope this helps. Viking

Not sure, as I haven't used mine yet. However, theoretically should be easy as long as both have same frequency. Often there is a code on the remote--if so, and they are different, you won't be able to as each receiver is set for a different frequency. Thus, you need a second receiver (dimmer) with same code as the other, as opposed to a second remote...

When I received my remote, it worked just like the original remote did. You need to make sure that the new remote has the same code in it as the old remote. The code switches are located in the battery section of the remote. As far as returns, I don't know, you will have to check out the companies return policy. Good luck with your remote.

If this has the same receiver as this hand held devise, your good to go. I bought another, just the remote by itself, just to have an extra remote and it works fine. You have to pair the new remote thats all.

You can buy another unit and install it in a second car. Then you can program your remote to be used for both cars. So you can switch your remote from car one to car two with the press of a button.

Yes but it takes less than 10 seconds to reprogram it after you program the new one.my remote work perfectly. .

I have not experienced that, but all of these devices have a "code switch" where you can set the code used by the Remote and the Outlet Box. Just set both the Remote and the Outlet box to the "same" code - of your choice. Any combination of the switches will work, just set both the Remote and the Outlet Box to the "same" code.

You can program them any way you want. The only limitation is no more than three remotes can operate the same switch. One control can operate any number of outlets.

Yes like the others have stated below, when you program the replacement remote just do the same thing with each remote you want to add.

Yes, you can purchase and use more than one remote. As mentiioned, if Amazon no longer offers it, contact Mace direct.They have a very helpful Customer Service Dept. that will walk you through the programming.

Yes. But it's easy. Just look at instructions on your opener. It won't affect existing remotes.

Your old remote will still work -- I had to make sure as my wife uses the second remote. Be sure and use the toll-free number if you have difficulties in understanding any of the written directions -- they were VERY helpful & customer friendly!!
