Installation Instructions Garage Door Opener Radio Controls Model 5018 (433MHz) Single Button Transmitter Model 5118 (433 MHz) Receiver WARNING: • Disconnect operator power before any installation or repair • Always wear safety glasses Your Digi-Code radio controls are designed specifically to remotely control a garage door opener from within an automobile and to give years of trouble free service without adjustment. Because all radio controls are set with the even numbered switches in the “ON” position when they leave the factory, it is recommended that a different code be selected and set at the time of installation. Please refer to the “Setting the Code Switch” section for instructions. The radio frequency (RF) portion of the controls, however, are tuned to standard frequencies and are thoroughly tested at the factory. This permits the addition or replacement of either the transmitter or the receiver by specifying the Model number and the RF frequency designated on the identification label. RF adjustments are not needed nor should any be attempted. SECTION #1 RECEIVER INSTALLATION The receiver is designed to mount directly to the operator. It can be remotely installed if the operator terminal strip is not accessible, or if the power for the receiver is not obtainable from the operator. To direct mount the receiver, simply loosen the terminal screws on the operator and insert the two-way lugs from the receiver under the screw heads along the wall button wires, and tighten the screws ( See Figure #1) Place the antenna (a 10 inch black wire ) in a vertical position as far from any metal as possible. For remote installation the receiver may be mounted near the operator head on a joist or the ceiling by using the mounting tab. Order Model 5192-06 adapter, which permits connection between the operator terminal and the two-way lugs on the receiver. Slip on connectors at one end of the adapter connect to the flat side of each spade lug on the receiver, and the spade connectors at the other end connect to the operator terminal. Connect wires as follows: (a) White wire to terminal “1” or “12v” (b) Black wire to terminal “2” or “Relay” (c) Red wire to terminal “3” or “Common” ( Radio Power ) (d) Connect push button wires to terminal “1” and “2” (See Figure #2) Where power for the radio receiver is not available from the operator order a Model 5192-01 power transformer adapter for connection between the operator and the remote receiver. SECTION #2 SETTING THE ( “RECEIVER” ) CODE SWITCH - TO WORK WITH MODEL 5018 SINGLE BUTTON TRANSMITTER Use your finger to slide the “code switch hatch” from the receiver for access to the code switch. On the transmitter the entire front lower half of the case ( “ the battery hatch” ) is removeable. Use a coin or the curved end of the visor clip to disengage the lower half of the transmitter front. This will expose both the code switch and the battery compartment (See Figure #3). Model – 5018 (433MHz) Figure #3A Set both code switches to the code of your choice, being sure both are set the same since a different setting of just one switch will prevent operation. The digital code is determined by the position of the 10 small switches numbered 1 through 10 located in the receiver and the transmitter. Any combination of “on” or “off” positions can be selected by using a pencil or a pen. (Note: The switches are in the “on” position when the switch is depressed toward the number.) See Figure #3 above. Once the codes have been set, check operation and reinsert the hatches. SECTION #3 TRANSMITTER BATTERY REPLACEMENT The battery in the transmitter can be checked or changed by removing the front lower half of the transmitter. Use a coin or the curved end of the visor clip to disengage the lower half of the transmitter front. This will expose the battery compartment. Replacement battery must be a 9-volt. TO REPLACE OR ADD A SET A replacement or new transmitter or receiver may be purchased by specifying the Model Number and the RF frequency designated on the serial tag label. The RF frequency is set at the factory and must not be adjusted in the field. The digital code can be matched to the companion receiver or transmitter by following the “setting” procedures above. OPERATIONAL CHECK To check operation, move back about 50 feet and press the transmitter button. Operation should be reliable at this distance but environment and location of both the transmitter and receiver will effect the range. Try different mounting locations and positions in the vehicle. If operation is still undesirable, the problem may be isolated by: 1. Checking the door operator. If the door will not open when the wall button is pressed, the problem is likely to be the operator. If the door will open by pressing the wall button, but not when the radio control button is pressed, the problem is probably in the radios. 2. Replacing the transmitter battery. If, after performing the above operational checks, the controls still do not function, they should be returned to your dealer for repair or replacement.

Operational Description

180 Engelwood Dr. Suite G. • Orion, Michigan 48359 • Tel: 248 276-9024 Description of Operation Model DC-5018 This transmitter is a remote control device designed and manufactured for the purpose of radio control of garage door openers and other like devices. The physical size of these devices is such that they can be either hand held or visor mounted on the interior of an automobile or similar vehicle. Model DC-5018 operates on a fixed frequency of 433.92MHz. Operation or actuation of this device is controlled by a simple electromechanical switch. Depressing the switch causes the transmitter to emit the radio signal and upon releasing the switch, the transmitter ceases to emit the radio signal. Personal coding of the device is provided by a small 10 position switch which is mounted on the printed circuit board. Access to this switch is provided when the cover of the transmitter is removed. 10 switch positions provide 1,024 personal code selections. All models are compliant with F.C.C. Part 15 Rules.

RF Exposure Info

RF Exposure Exhibit for Digi-Code, Inc. OWM-ZD433 Portable Devices are defined as a transmitting device designed to be used so that the radiating structure(s) of the device is in contact with the body of the user or nearby persons. Therefore, this device is classified under section 2.1093 as a “portable” device. Although this device is categorically excluded from RF exposure evaluation under Part 2, it can be shown that the device meets the limits used for evaluating other devices (those which are not excluded) under this section. Section 2.1093(d-2) for portable devices state that the limits for general population/uncontrolled exposure is .08 W/kg as averaged over the whole-body and spatial peak SAR not exceeding 1.6 W/kg as average over any 1 gram of tissue. The FCC OET Bulletin 65 Section 2 can be used to determine compliance with guidelines for human exposure to RF radiation. We will use equation 3 of that section for predicting RF fields. S = PG 4πR 2 S = power density (units e.g. mW/cm 2 ) P = power into to the antenna (or power output) (units e.g. mW) G = power gain of the antenna (worst case = 1) R = distance to the center of antenna (units e.g. cm) The highest power measurement for this device is 61.6 dBuV. For this prediction we will use a worst-case power of –45.4 dBm or 28.8 nW. Since the device is “portable”, we will use a worst-case distance of .15 cm. For worst-case antenna gain, we will use a gain of one. Using equation 3 of OET Bulletin 65 Section 2, the power density is calculated to be 0.000102053486 mW/cm 2 . This is well within the limit given in 2.1093 (d-2).
