The TriCodeTMdigital receivers are designed for use 
with automatic garage/gate operators and access
TM
control systems. All TriCode
products may be 
matched with Linear/Delta-3TM, Multi-CodeTM, and 
StanleyTMradio products which may already be 
installed.
TM
The TriCode 
1024 different digital codes. For Linear/Delta-3
radio format provides a potential of
TM
compatible products, 256 different digital codes are 
available. The codes are set using 10-position DIP 
switch system.

Children operating or playing with a garage door 
/gate opener can injure themselves and others.
The door/gate could close and cause serious 
injury or death. 
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 
Disconnect power to opener before installing 
receiver or removing/replacing receiver cover.
Do not allow children to operate
where the door/gate is visible.

POWER SWITCH SETTINGS
CAUTION:
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).
To avoid possibility of duplicating
Step 1 Power Supply Selection Setting
The TriCodeTMreceiver is factory set for 24 volt power 
input if 12 volt is required. 
Remove back cover of receiver by removing screws. 
Set jumper to the 12 volt setting (Refer to figure 1).

OUTPUT RELAYS & CONFIGURATION SWITCH SETTINGS
Step 2 Setting Output Relay Mode
The TriCodeTMreceiver 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 receive a 
matching/valid ID code from the transmitter (Refer to 
figure 3).
NOTE: If constant pressure mode is desired, open 
front cover and move mode jumper from “MNT” to 
“CST” (Refer to figure 2).
FIGURE 3
Step 3 Setting the Configuration Switch
The TriCodeTMreceiver is factory set for Linear/Delta3TM. 
Locate the configuration switch and set it to the desired 
RF mode of operation 
are as follows:
Linear/Delta-3TM:
transmitters transmitted at 310 MHz using 8-bits ID 
system.
MultiTM:
transmitted at 300 MHz using 10-bits ID system.
StanleyTM:
transmitted at 310 MHz using 10-bits ID system..

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS & POWER CONNECTIONS
Step 4 Setting DIP Switch
The TriCodeTMReceiver DIP switch CH1 is factory set 
OFF (1-10) and CH2 is factory set ON (1-10).
Locate the 10 position DIP switch. If this is a new
TM
installation using TriCode
transmitters, randomly set 
switches matching those of the transmitter. Never use 
factory settings. If receiver is used with Linear/Delta 3TM, 
Multi-codeTMor StanleyTMtransmitters, match the 
receiver DIP switch to the above transmitters. Some 
transmitters may use toggle switches and it may be 
difficult to determine on & off. If so, try reversing the
TM
setting on the TriCode
DIP switch (Refer to figures 4
and 5).
TM
Note: In 'LINEAR/DELTA-3
' mode (8-bits system) 
the last 2 bits (DIP #9 & 10) settings are ignored. 
They can be left in either ‘ON’ or ‘OFF’ settings.
