25 Code GTO Digital Keypad
Instructions for Wired and Wireless Installations (FM137-G3 only)
Thank you for purchasing the GTO Digital Keypad. Be sure to read the directions carefully
and completely. Before permanently mounting the keypad, please program the keypad and test
its range.
IMPORTANT: Your keypad may need to be hard wired due to the fact that it must accept
interference according to FCC regulations listed below. For example, applications
that are relativity close to cell towers or airports may receive intermittent interference and
require hard-wiring.
The GTO Digital Keypad is a multipurpose keypad that can work with other applications in
addition to GTO gate openers and locks. As a wireless keypad it can be used with any gate or
garage door opener and must be used in conjunction with the GTO garage door receiver kit
(part # RB709).
SAFETY NOTE: Never install the keypad where a person can reach through the gate to activate
it, or where a person can touch the gate while activating the keypad. The recommended minimum distance between the gate and keypad is 10 ft.
FCC WARNING: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in particular installations. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or replace the receiver antenna. • Increase the
separation between the equipment and the receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Features of the Keypad
You may program up to 25 different personal entry codes, allowing you to give different entry codes to different users. For example,
you can give a delivery person their own entry code, which you can easily change after they have made the delivery. This will prevent
them from being able to regain access, while still allowing those to whom you gave other entry codes full access.
As a safety feature, after entering a valid code, pressing any key during a 40 second time period from the last key pressed while the
gate is opening will stop the gate. Pressing any key while the gate is stopped will reverse direction of the gate. The keypad will not affect the auto-close setting of your gate opener system.
The keypad face will light up and the beeper will beep at the press of any key. The keypad memory will recognize your entry code in
a string of up to 20 digits. As a security feature, you have a maximum of 20 digits in which to enter the correct code before the keypad
locks you out for 40 seconds. This will discourage an unauthorized person from trying to use random numbers to access your property.
Your entry codes will remain stored in memory even when the batteries go dead. The keypad will remember your entry codes as long
as you don’t press the RESET button.

IMPORTANT: Transmitter must
be placed exactly as shown, and
against the bottom of the keypad
in order for the ‘learning’ process
to work correctly.
Wired Installation of the Keypad
Step 1: Turn the gate opener’s power switch OFF. Use 16 gauge, stranded, direct burial low volt-
age wire (part no. RB509) to connect the keypad to the opener control board. Run wire through
PVC pipe from the ground to keypad and from the ground to the opener control board to protect
the wire from lawn mowers or grazing animals.
Determine how the wire will enter the keypad (i.e. from the back through a hole drilled in the
mounting post or running the wire on the surface of the post). Remove the small rectangular
knock-out on the back of the keypad cover and pull the wire into the cover. Then mount the cover
to the post using the screws provided.
