I have one of these and bought a second. The door sender did not set the second off. How do you set it to pick up the door sender? I would like 4 do i

Gladys, you sound like me - I did the same thing. Read the instructions closely and you'll find the answer there. It has been so long that I don't recall off hand, but the instructions are there you just have to look it over carefully. If you don't find it, I believe there was an 800 # and website you could look at.

Just guessing, I would say possibly vibration causes it to trigger the switch....... there is a "Tilt" switch that sends the signal when the mailbox door is opened, and maybe your mailbox is picking up vibrations from the truck traffic....... you might try remounting it with a piece of foam between the unit and the mailbox lid. Otherwise, I don't know. Good luck!!

First you need to make sure the remote will work with the opener. I found that not all will work. Then there should be a colored button on the back of the opener. Press that then press your remote button. Then press the remote again and the door should move. Once I had the right remote that's all it took.

OK, in that case you will only need the one "Butler" unit, which, in fact, will work as a 3rd button for manual opening and closing. BTW, I installed a unit for my daughter on a system in which the buttons transmit codes like those of the remote control buttons. In this case, I had to work around in a little more complicated way since the "Butler" is basically a normally open/close contacts to operate relay type of system.

Yes, the other openers work. Since I had difficulty with the second door the analyst had me reset all learned devices on that opener. Normally you should not have to do that especially if you have only one door. After the 2nd door was reset I needed to reprogram remote (i.e. hit the learn button on the opener and hit the button on the remote to have it relearn the remote). I hope that helps.

I am not sure and would have to look in the manual, which I no longer have. If you have two sensors for two doors, perhaps something went sideways when you programmed the base unit for the second sensor or it is waiting for you to program the second sensor.

Okay, I called Honeywell and they walked me through setting up two chimes one one button. I don't quite understand what I did but their number is on the box.

Is there a special way to configure the unit to do this or is it easy to do? All I want is local control of devices and my doors to chime when they are opened.Thanks again for all the help.Joe

Mine was the same way. I found a different solution by using a wireless chime. It was a lot of work. I rigged the button to connect to the wired chime. It only worked for one door. Not 2 doors like the extend a chime. But at least it could be heard. Sometimes this stuff doesn't work. What are you going to do?

If I recall correctly (and it's been a few years since I bought this thing), you set the "code" by opening the main box and there is a sort of small little card with what look like little "pins" on it. You switch one or the other to the "on" position making sure the rest are all set to the "off" position. Frankly I wasn't very happy with this item. It wasn't the ring tones that were disappointing. It was the door ringer button. It only worked now and then, and if you didn't press it in just the right place it didn't ring. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, and I wouldn't buy another one either. Hope yours works better than mine did. I was really looking forward to having a door bell too! Very disappointing!

I had one on the front door of my ranch home and purchased a second one for the back door. When I first installed it outside of the back door, it ran off the front door receiver. Then the bell fell off the siding and when my husband screwed it on so that it would stay it no longer worked using the front chimes. I put batteries in the second set of chimes and now it works GREAT! The advantage is having two separate songs so that I know which door someone is at!!!

Hard to say without seeing it. Double check your wiring and your settings. It could be a loose wire, for example, or maybe the sensitivity is turned up too high. I set up the sensitivity on mine to come on right as you walk through the door. Also, if you have the time turned all the way down (test position), it will stay on for like 30 seconds and then shut off. That's the shortest setting. If it's coming on and off in shorter intervals than that, there is likely an issue with how it was connected.

Mine did not work when I bought my house. A 2 wire Door Bell Push Buttonwill work to open and close it. In order to get the remores to work I needed to get a new Wall Mount Super Station so the new remotes I bought once programmed could be programmed to match the Door Opener.. Not expensive. I bought 2 remotes and 1 Super Station for approx $50 on line. Not a difficult task if you follow the instructions sent with the Super Station.

Yes, we also have 2 doors, however it only alerts if own and closes the doors. I does not open the doors, a feature we would have liked.

Sounds like you have a bad sending unit or can be the receiver readout it self.I'm trying to remember it's been about a year or when I installed mine. I seemto remember the unit read out would be 70 at times, I think it was when nosending unit was connected to the unit. I would check to make sure the pins onthe unit that the sending unit plugs in to are straight and inside the female endmake sure the metal receiver hole is nice and tight to the male pin. You alsomight try bending the mail pin different directions slightly might do the job foryou.

I haven't found one, all of my other remotes get picked up by the splitter. I covered the IR sensor on the splitter and just get up to change inputs, it's a little inconvenient but I was having to get up anyway when another remote changed it. Any help would be appreciated if someone else has figured it out.

I never had that problem. Is the unit in the mail box set up right? It should beep when the door is open. the arrow should point up. there is also a reset button on the house unit. Sorry that all I can tell you.
