DESCRIPTION
TheMCT-3MegaCode® digitaltransmitterisawirelessradiocontrol designed for use with automatic garage and gate operators.
Each of the three transmitter buttons will send a unique code when pressed.One button can be used to activate the individual’s garage door opener, a second button can operate an access gate, a third button can activate an additional garage door operator or most
Linear 318 MHz MegaCode® wireless receivers.
MegaCode® transmitters and receivers do not contain a typical “coding switch”. Each transmitter is permanently coded at the factory. The receiver is programmed by “learning” a transmitter’s unique digital code. The receiver will activate only from the “memorized” transmitters.
The transmitter is powered by two Type 2032 “coin-cell” batteries. They should last 3 years with normal use.The red indicator on the face of the transmitter will glow when the unit is activated. If the indicator lights dimly, or not at all when transmitting, the batteries need to be replaced.To conserve battery life, an internal timer limits the transmission duration to 10 seconds if a transmitter button is held down.

IMPORTANT !!!
Linear radio controls provide a reliable communications link and fill an important need in portable wireless signaling.However, there are some limitations which must be observed.
• For U.S.installations only:The radios are required to comply with FCC Rules and Regulations as Part 15 devices.As such, they have limited transmitter power and therefore limited range.
•A receiver cannot respond to more than one transmitted signal at a time and may be blocked by radio signals that occur on or near their operating frequencies, regardless of code settings.
•Changes or modifications to the device may void FCC compliance.
• Infrequently used radio links should be tested regularly to protect against undetected interference or fault.
• A general knowledge of radio and its vagaries should be gained prior to acting as a wholesale distributor or dealer, and these facts should be communicated to the ultimate users.
•This device complies with FCC Part 15 and Industry Canada Rules and Regulations. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
