The TriCodeTMdigital receivers are designed for use with automatic garage/gate operators and access

control systems. All TriCode

products may be matched with Linear/Delta-3TM, Multi-CodeTM, and StanleyTMradio products which may already be installed.

The TriCode 1024 different digital codes. For Linear/Delta-3

radio format provides a potential of

compatible products, 256 different digital codes are available. The codes are set using a 10-position DIP switch system.

Children operating or playing with a garage door /gate opener can injure themselves and others.

serious injury or death.

The door/gate could close and cause

Do not allow children to operate the door control push button or the remote control transmitters.

Install the receiver (and all door control push buttons) out of the reach of children and away from all moving parts of the door and door hardware, but

where the door/gate is visible.

POWER & OUTPUT RELAY SWITCH SETTINGS

CAUTION:

To avoid possibility of duplicating codes in adjacent systems, all transmitters and receivers should be re-coded prior to operation. Unless using maximum number of codes the following four codes should not be used:

· All DIP Switches ON

· All DIP Switches OFF

· DIP Switches alternating ON/OFF

· DIP Switches alternating OFF/ON.

Receivers should be installed at least 5 feet apart to avoid cross-talk. After completing installation, operate transmitter outside of building to make certain the chosen DIP switch setting does not operate with nearby garage door operators and/or security systems. If so, select another DIP switch setting and check the coded signal again. Repeat as necessary.

RECEIVER MOUNTING

Mount receiver to wall using #6 hardware (Not Supplied). Hardware used will depend on mounting application. (Refer to figure 1 for receiver mounting hole locations).

ANTENNA MOUNTING

Screw on antenna clockwise and slide rubber boot down to meet o-ring.

Step 1 Power Supply Selection Setting

The TriCode

receiver is factory set for 24 volt power input if 12 volt is required. Remove front cover of receiver by turning screws counterclockwise a 1/4 of a turn until each releases. Set jumper (P3) to either 12 or 24 volt setting depending on your power input (Refer to figure 1).

Step 2 Setting Output Relay Mode

The TriCode

receiver is factory set for momentary

relay output “MNT”. (a) Momentary mode: The output relay will be on for

.5 seconds before turning off. (b) Constant pressure mode: Output relay is

continuously on while receiving matching/valid ID code from transmitter. The output relay will turn off immediately once receiver does not received a matching/valid ID code from the transmitter. If constant pressure mode is desired, move mode jumper from “MNT” to “CST” (Refer to figure 1).

NOTE: The relay output is an isolated normally open contact.
