Setting Up Your Initial PIN

M3-631 & M3-691

Your keyless entry system comes factory pre-programmed with 1 random code and 1 PIN. The factory pre-programmed PIN is 1-2-3-4. If you are using other remote control transmitters to operate your garage door, the transmitter code must be transferred to the keyless entry system from the active transmitter you are already using.

To Program PIN & Transfer the Code from a Transmitter

M3-631 & M3-691

  1. Open terminal and connect the keyless entry system to the active transmitter using the programming connector.

  2. Press and hold the transmitter button you use to open and close the door. On the keyless entry system, press the ENTER button. The keypad will illuminate.

  3. Input any new 4-digit PIN of your choice. Press ENTER button again. Continue pressing the transmitter button until the LEDs  on the keyless entry system blinks rapidly.

  4. This indicates the keyless entry system has learned the code from the transmitter, and stored it under the PIN that you entered. Remove programming connector and close the terminal.
