Universal Garage Door/Gate Opener
Cat. No.
61-2115
Your RadioShack Universal Garage Door/Gate Opener
is a transmitter compatible with most 300, 310, and 390
MHz garage door and gate opera ting s ystems manu factured by Chamberlain
Moore-O-Matic
Note:
This Opener is not compatible with rotating code
systems, such as Intellicode
by several of these manufacturers since 1996.
The Opener can be used as a replacement for, or in addition to, most older style remote control transmitters. It
can be programmed to operate up to three garage door
openers or gate s, in cl udi ng different brand s. If y ou r s ystem uses code switches, you must program the Opener
to match the existing code. If your existing system does
not use code switches, you can program the Opener to
use any random code. All programming is done using
the three buttons on the Opener.
We suggest that you fir st read through this owne r’s manual in its entirety, then return to “Preparation” for brand
and code identification. Once you know this information
about your operating system, refer to “Pro gram m ing th e
Opener” on Page 3 to program the brand and code into
your Opener. This procedure should take only a few moments. Once you are familiar with how your Opener
works, you can easily refer to “Quick Start” for subsequent programming.

If your system has code switches,
you must program the Opener to match your system’s code.
Proceed to the table in this section that shows the
brand name of your operating system. Follow the
instructions below the table.

If your receiver does not have code switches,
choose any random 9-digit code (consisting of the
numbers 1, 2, and 3). Write that code in the following table, making sure to put a digit (1, 2, or 3) in
each column. Fi ll in only one box pe r column and ignore the instructions below the table. Then, proceed to “Programming the Opener” on Page3.

PROGRAMMING THE OPENER
Before you begin to program the Opener, determine
which button you want to use to operate your system.
The other two buttons can be used for addi tional garage
door or gate operating systems.
To avoid delays during programming, be sure all the information you need is handy. Note the number next to
the brand name of your system (see the beginning of
“Preparation” on Page 1). Also, be ready to refer to the
table you filled in on Page 2.
After Steps 1 and 2, you have 15 seconds to pro-

Warning: Use of this Opener should be limited to responsible adults. Automatic gate and garage door systems are dangerous. They can cause great bodily harm
and injury, and can result in death. Always exercise caution when using the Opener. Do not use the Opener to
operate a gate or door unless you can see that the area
is clear. Always keep children away from automatic
doors and gates.
ATTACHING THE VISOR CLIP
REPLACING THE BATTERIES
Your Opener comes with two CR2025 lithium batteries
(supplied) installed for power. These batteries should
last 3 to 5 years under normal use (about 6 operations
per day). When the Opener’s range is dim ini sh ed, ope ration is intermittent, or the red indicator dims, replace the
batteries.
1. To open the case, insert a flat-blade screwdriver into
the slot at one end and twist it slightly.
2. Remove the Phillips s c rew from the center of the c ircuit board and carefully lift out the board and the
clear plastic battery shield.
3. Remove the old batteries, then place fresh batteries
of the recommended type in the battery holders, as
indicated by the polarity symbols marked inside the
case.
4. Be su re to replace the battery shield, t hen replace
the circuit board (securing it with the screw) and
close the case.
To mount the Opener on your vehicle’s visor, you must
first attach the supplied clip. Simply slide the clip’s
straight side all the way into the groove on the back of
the Opener.
Warnings:
• Keep button-cell batteries away from children. Swallowing a button-cell battery can be fatal.
• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do
