Control Garage Door Opener
and HomeSettings System from
your car
Thank you for purchasing the 3973C Wireless Keychain Remote Control. HomeSettings products by
Wayne-Dalton allow you to control your home by remote control. You can create a complete Home Control
and Access Network by combining your Wireless Keychain Remote Control with other
HomeSettings products. Indoor and outdoor lighting, security systems, garage door openers, and
thermostats are just a few of the items you can easily control with additional HomeSettings products.
Your new Wireless Keychain Remote Control is compatible with Wayne-Dalton garage door openers, the
Garage Door Opener Conversion Module and the Wireless Gateway to give you control of any brand garage
door opener and Z-Wave®enabled modules.
Home Control Basics
HomeSettings products will allow you to easily control multiple devices in a home with the push of a button
in what is known as a “scene”. Turning on all of the lights as you come home is an example of a scene.
Dimming lights and closing your curtains to watch TV, it’s also a scene.
Visit www.wayne-dalton.com/access to get ideas on how to create scenes with your Remote Control and
other Z-Wave®enabled HomeSettings products.

the manual door operated position. This is for
safety reasons.
2. Press program button on DoorMaster™

The following examples describe how your
Wireless Gateway can be used. For further
ideas, please visit our website at www.
wayne-dalton.com/access.
1. Approaching your home in your car, you wish
to turn on the outside lights near the garage,
front door and rear door, lamps in the kitchen
and family room and adjust your thermostat to
the normal temperature. Wireless Gateway
SCENE 1 can be programmed to turn all of the
lights ON and adjust the thermostat. To operate
SCENE 1 from your car, you will also need to
program one button of the remote located in
your car to SCENE 1.
2. In your car and leaving your home you wish to
turn off the outside lights near the garage, front
door and rear door, as well as interior lights and
appliances and also set-back the thermostat.
Wireless Gateway SCENE 2 can be programmed
to turn all of these modules OFF and to set-back
the thermostat. To operate SCENE 2 from your
car, you will also need to program one button of
the remote located in your car to SCENE 2.
3. Noises outside your home awaken you during
the night. SCENE 3 is programmed to turn on
only the outside lights. You can turn on SCENE 3
with your Keychain Remote from your bedroom
to illuminate the area and scaring off any
potential intruders.
4. Lights out! You have tucked your 2 children in
bed and one has your permission to read for 15
minutes while the other has your permission to
watch TV for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes you
want to turn off their lights and TV. A SCENE is
programmed to their bedroom lights, lamps and
to a TV in the childs room. Using your Keychain
Remote you can turn their lights and TV off.

1 - Wireless Gateway, WDHA-12R
1 - Keychain Remote, (3973C) or any built-in
vehicular remote control

Use this procedure to program your Keychain
Remote for up to 6 actions.
In any of the previous programming instructions
at the point where you need to activate a
transmitter button to complete the programming
step, instead of pressing a single button,
simultaneously press a combination of any two
buttons.
To activate that programmed action,
simultaneously press those same two buttons.
Example of Use: Single Big button is
programmed only to activate Garage Door
Opener, while each of the two smaller buttons
are programmed to SCENE 1 and 2 of the
Gateway Module. SCENE 3 of the Gateway
module can be programmed to activate by
pressing the two smaller buttons at the same
time.
Should the range of the transmitter be
reduced or your operator or Z-Wave®device
fail to operate, you may need to change your
batteries.
To change the batteries, insert a coin in the
coin slot and twist to access the battery
compartment. Your transmitter uses two
CR2016 batteries. Replace both batteries at the
same time.
Remove the batteries from the battery cage
and replace with fresh batteries. Be certain to
maintain the correct polarity (+).

Troubleshooting
Problem:
• One of my Wireless Gateway SCENES is not
working.
• My operator no longer works with my remote.
• I need to contact Customer Service.
The Wayne Dalton Wireless Gateway can be
activated by up to 12 transmitter programs.
When exceeded the last one programmed will
be dropped.
The Wayne Dalton operator can be activated by
up to six remote control devices (including wall
station and keyless entry controls). If a seventh
control is programmed, one of the programmed
controls will be overwritten and will no longer
activate the operator. To clear the programming
of all remote control devices, press and hold
the DoorMaster™ light fixture program button,
idrive®, Quantum™ or Classic drive™ operator
program button for approximately ten seconds.
When the DoorMaster™, Quantum™, Classic
drive™ status LED goes out or idrive®operator
beeps three times, then all controls are erased.
