DESCRIPTION
The MCT-11 MegaCode® digital transmitter is a wireless radio
control designed for use with automatic garage and gate
operators.
MegaCode® transmitters and receivers do not contain a typical
“coding switch”. Each transmitter is permanently coded at the
factory. The transmitter sends a unique code when the button is
pressed. 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 the transmitter button is
held down.
PROGRAM RECEIVER & TEST TRANSMITTER
Refer to the instructions provided with the receiver to set it into
“learn” mode. With the receiver ready to learn, press the transmitter
button to program the transmitter into the receiver’s memory.
After programming, test the transmitter from various locations. Be
sure the door or gate areas are clear. Activate the transmitter
and verify that the receiver triggers the operator.

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.
