The Universal Receiver is for synchronizing your gate opener remotes to work your garage door or other automated remote device. The receiver is easily wired in using a 4 wire connection and can be attached to model garage door openers. To know if your garage door can be operated by an external receiver you will need to locate two terminals on the garage door opener that when jumping across them (like when done with a wall mount push button) activates the garage door.
The garage door receiver has a range of approximately 75 feet but can be used in conjunction with the The Estate Swing Extended Range Antenna. The single channel is for a single garage door opener, the two channel is for two garage doors and the triple channel is for 3 garage doors. The receivers should be use in conjunction with multi-button remotes.
Compatible with:
- Easy Wiring: There are 4 wires that you need to connect. Two are for power, which can be AC or DC 12-24V. If you cannot find a power source (most gate openers have a battery you can run it off of) then you can hook it up to a transformer. (Search your junk drawers, many old transformers from other electronics may fall within the generous range allowed by our receiver). The other two wires close a circuit. On a garage door simply find the two terminals that the wall mount button uses.
- Strong Range: The receiver has a range of approximately 100'. This can be affected by surrounding conditions. It works on radio frequency so line of sight is not necessary but helps. You can hook up the Estate Swing Extended Range Antenna to the receiver to boost its range.
- Dip Switch Programming: Adding additional remotes is simple. There are 9 dip switches under the battery cover. Once you have one remote set up and working with your gate opener system, simply match all the other remotes or new remotes to match the dip switch settings of the original remote and they will be coordinated.
- Versatility: Because of the simplicity of the receiver, it can be used to just about any purpose. On Estate Swings there is a second open command terminal for partial openings, you can use this receiver to allow a dual button remote to open your gate fully or partially. On Apollos and GTOs, there are open only terminals, you can use this receiver to create safer automation for multiple remote control users by only allowing them to open the gate and letting auto-close close the gate - great for condos and other public entrances so they cannot accidentally reverse the gate on another car. On Zarebas the frequency is different and not compatible with wireless keypads and intercoms. You can use this receiver to match the frequency so you can use those handy accessories. And of course, it can be used to coordinate your garage door with your gate opener. In addition to all that, it has both a normally open and normally closed connection, allowing it to either open a circuit or close a circuit wirelessly - we have had hundreds of customers that came up with many other great uses for this device.
