1. Press 3 5 7 PROG. The red LED light should blink once per second.
2. Enter your PIN (3 to 8 characters).
3. Press PROG. The red LED should blink twice per second and then turn off.
4. Find the Learn Code Button and Learn Code Indicator LED on your door opener.
   1. If your door opener has a black antenna wire, the Learn Code Button and Indicator LED are located near the antenna. The light lens may need to be opened.
   2. If your door opener does not have an antenna, you have an external receiver. The external receiver cover must be removed the access the Learn Code Button and Indicator LED>

7. Press UP/DOWN ARROWS on the keypad again. The Learn Code Indicator LED turns off.
8. Wait until the Keypad Backlight turns off (this will take about 30 seconds).
