how do i program garage door opener
I installed a garage door opener and do not have the manual. I am
trying to get it so that when I push the manual opener button inside the garage that it stops correctly at the bottom. Then if I were to push it again it would stop in the correct open position. I have a Legacy model 1/3hp by overhead door company. I also have the remote but I am just trying to set it so the inside the garage switch functions as it should. Thanks everyone. |

Just a guess, but you could probably get one from this outfit: http://www.overheaddoor.com/Residential.aspx |

how do i program garage door opener
Did you install the electric eyes? The newer ones simply won't operate correctly without them. |

how do i program garage door opener
Yes I do have the CodeDodger access security system and am trying to
install without using the electric eyes but If I do have to install them I will. Thing is, once the eyes are in place and reading each other, it will work with as you described you desired. Without them you have to hold the button in the entire way down and then it may or may not stay down unless you give it another push when it is right at the bottom. I've installed 2 of these on our farm, one tor an end door in a green house, and one in my shop. I didn't want to bother with the eyes, as we are adults here and no one would be at risk, but the safety guys have made the circuitry such that they are required for normal operation. |

I do believe you need to put in the safety eyes. I might suggest that not doing so could open you up to a lawsuit if there were an accident. The reason they are there is because those accidents are more common that most people think. |

how do i program garage door opener
if it's modern, then there should be a programm button on it somewhere
(in the light bulp section probably). when you press this button , then press your remote an LED should flash on the opener telling you it got it and POW the remote should work now. this is pretty standard as so many cars have the remotes built into them now.
