How do I program the other button on the Universal Remote Control?

programming method using the other button. This process will not over
write the first button. The initial 15 second press to put the remote into
learn mode must be performed using the bottom button.
How do I erase previous codes and start fresh?
Codes cannot be erased, only overwritten. A newly programmed code
will take the place of a previous code.
The remote control is not working, the LED is not illuminating.
The LED is also a power indicator, pressing a button on the remote should
cause the LED to illuminate. If the LED does not illuminate after you press
the button, replace the battery using a CR2032 battery.
How can I stop one button from operating two doors?
If one remote control button is operating two doors, you must clear the
memory of the garage door opener that you do not want the button to
activate.
Where is the LEARN button located on my opener?
The LEARN button can either be found on the garage door opener or on an
external receiver. To locate the receiver look for an antenna, some receivers
will require a cover be removed to gain access to the LEARN button.
The LEARN button is often a different colour to the other buttons, and may
be labelled as PROGRAM, CODE, SET, DOOR CODE, RADIO SET or
similar. Refer to your garage door opener manual for information on its
location.

Control?
