Preparing to Program Your LiftMaster Remote
Before we get round to doing the actual scheduling, you ’ ll indigence to have two things ready :
- Access to the Learn button on the opener. Take note of the button color.
- The remote you want to program with good batteries (if the remote has an LED it should light up when a button is pressed, even before it is programmed).
Most openers will require a run to reach. Start by locating the antenna wire that hangs from the motor, which may be hidden under a lightly traverse, normally on the back side. Most covers can be opened by lightly pushing the sides out from the inside. The Learn push button will be located near this antenna wire, and will be either chicken, empurpled, red/orange, or green. sometimes ( but not always ), the button will match the color of the antenna wire . If you have a wall-mounted panel, there may be a physical button or menu option to assist with the programming steps. If the panel has a digital menu, you should find it under Menu → Features → Program → Remote.
