2. SET BRAND JUMPER

2a.The Model G5K contains 2 brand jumpers and 12 DIP switches (see diagram B). The brand jumpers are located just above the DIP switches with markings “A” and “B”. There are 2 connectors, one is placed on the “A” column, the other one is placed on the “B” column. For each column, there is a connector. If the connector is placed on the top and middle post of that

column, that column is set on “+”. If the con- nector is placed on the middle and bottom posts,

that column is set on “-“. If the connector is removed completely, that column is set on “0” (see diagram B). In order for the Model G5K to work with your existing garage door opener (motor), you need to set the brand jumpers based on the brand of your existing garage

door opener. Please set these 2 brand jumpers “A” and “B” based on the brand jumpers setting

on chart 2. Please identify the group number on chart 2 in order to determine which is the next step to proceed.

2. PROGRAMMING YOUR NEW TRANSMITTER (CONT)

For garage door openers belonging to groups 1 to 5, please follow step 3 of the procedures, this will complete the setup. No need to proceed to step 4.

For garage door openers belonging to groups 6 to 0, you can proceed directly to “Step 4 – Set DIP switches” after you have success- fully set the brand jumpers. Please skip step 3 below.

Chart 2

* Note:

For Genie® IntellicodeTM & Overhead Code Dodger TM, if the brand jumper for group 3 cannot operate your garage door opener properly, please use setting A “-”, B “+”.

3. LEARN CODE

Note:

Proceed to this step only if the brand of your garage door opener belongs to either group 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 on chart 2. Otherwise, proceed to Step 4 - Set DIP switches.

3a. If your existing garage door opener belongs to any brand from group 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, then you should find a “learn” button from the garage door opener (the unit with the motor located on the ceiling of your garage, see diagram C). Press this learn button for approximately 2 seconds. The LED light beside the learn button will go on and then enter the current 4-digit PIN, on the keypad of the Model G5K, then press [#] key. If you have just purchased the Model G5K, the factory default 4-digit PIN is 0000. So please enter [0], [0], [0], [0], [#]. This will activate the Model G5K and radio signal will be sent to your existing garage door opener. If the garage door opener learns the code, the LED light on the garage door opener will flash then go off. The Model G5K is now programmed to your existing garage

door opener and will operate your garage door. Programming is now completed and please refer to

“Keypad Operation” for changing your personal PIN and other operations.

4. SET DIP SWITCHES

Note:

Proceed to this step only if the brand of your garage door opener belongs to either group 6, 7, 8, 9 or 0 on chart 2. Otherwise, proceed to Step 3 - Learn code.

4a. If the brand of your garage door opener
belongs to groups 6 to 0, that means you	Pen
need to program the correct DIP switch
setting in order for the Model G5K to work
with your existing garage door opener.	DIP Switch Location
There are 12 DIP switches numbered
from 1 to 12. (see diagram D)

4b. Use a pen to set the DIP switches to match	Diagram D
the code of your existing transmitter or receiver.

Each DIP switch of this keypad has 3 positions ( " + ", " 0 ", " - " ). If the switches of your existing receiver (Stanley ®, Genie®, Multi-Code®, Linear®, Moore-O-Matic®, Martec® ) have only two positions, set the switches of the model G5K to " + " for ON or CLOSE, and " - " for OFF or OPEN (Do not use " 0 " center position.) (see diagram E). If the switches of your existing transmitter (Chamberlain®, Sears®, Lift-Master®, Wayne Dalton®, Pulsar® or Master Mechanic® ) have 3 positions, set the DIP switches of the model G5K to match their corresponding positions.
