INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
MICRO-TRANSMITTER MODEL MCS1082
Congratulations! You have just purchased a Micro-Code Digital Transmitter,
which we believe to be the finest product of its kind on the market. With a
little care this transmitter should provide you with many years of excellent
service. Please take a moment to read the following instructions and you will
find that setting your new transmitter will be quite an easy matter.
ACCESSING THE CODE SWITCH AND BATTERY
COMPARTMENT
The model MCS1082 Micro-Transmitter case is composed of two halves that
can be opened by inserting a small coin in the slot provided. A twisting
motion of the coin will cause the two halves to separate. Once opened, you
will have access to both the code setting switch and the battery compartment
(See Diagram #1).

WARNING: Changes or modications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could
void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

SELECTING A CODE
Set both transmitter and receiver switches to the code of your choice, being
sure both are set the same since a different setting of just one switch will
prevent operation. The digital code is determined by the position of 1 O small
switches numbered 1 through 10 located in the receiver and transmitter. Any
combination of "on" or "off" positions can be selected by using a pencil or
ball point pen. (Note: The switches are in the "on" position when the switch is
depressed toward the number.) See Diagram #2.
Once the codes have been set, check operation and reassemble the
transmitter case.
MICRO-TRANSMITTER INSTALLATION
This transmitter is completely self contained, including battery and can be
operated while held in hand or while mounted in the car. It is supplied with
"hook and loop" fabric for easy mounting or it may be added to your key
chain using the slot provided.
TRANSMITTER BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Replacement battery - 12 volt alkaline lighter battery (Eveready A 23 or
equivalent)
The transmitter battery can be checked or changed by opening the case
using a small coin in the slot provided. A twisting motion of the coin will
separate the case halves and provide access to the battery compartment.
Simply slide out the old battery and slide in the new, remembering to
observe the battery polarity molded on the case in the bottom of the battery
compartment.
Note that if the red L.E.D. on your transmitter fails to light, you most likely
have a weak or dead battery and it should be replaced (See Diagram #1).
OPERATIONAL CHECK
To check operation, move back a reasonable distance (about 50 ft.) and press
the transmitter button.
Operation should be reliable at this distance but environment and location
of both the transmitter and receiver will affect the range. If the transmitter is
stowed well out of sight, it may be necessary to remove it from its mounting
and hold near the windshield. Try different locations and positions. If
operation is still unsatisfactory, the problem may be isolated by:
Checking the door operator: If the door will not open when the wall button
is pressed, the problem is likely to be the operator. If the door will open by
pressing the wall button, but not when the radio control button is pressed, the
problem is probably in the radios.
Replacing the transmitter battery: If, after performing the above operational
checks, the controls still do not function, they should be returned to your
dealer for repair or replacement.
