Remote Transmitter

NOTE: Generic Electronic Module (GEM) will erase all previously programmed remote transmitters when a new remote transmitter is programmed. If adding an additional remote transmitter, all existing remote transmitters must be reprogrammed at the same time.
  1. Enter 5-digit manufacturer's permanent entry code at keypad. Within 5 seconds of pressing last digit, press 1/2 button on keypad. Hold 1/2 button for more than 2 seconds to erase all stored customer codes. Doors will lock and unlock to confirm all codes are erased. Existing codes do not need to be erased to program new codes.
  2. Press and hold any button on remote transmitter within 5 seconds of pressing 1/2 button. Doors will lock and unlock to confirm programming. GEM will automatically associate remote transmitters to a personality setting. The first remote transmitter to be programmed will be position No. 1 and the second remote transmitter will be position No. 2. Remaining remote transmitters if programmed, will not be associated to a personality setting.
  3. If additional remote transmitters are to be programmed, press any button on remote transmitter to be programmed within 7.5 seconds of pressing button on last transmitter. If programming is successful doors will lock and unlock.
  4. After all remote transmitters are programmed, a new keyless entry keypad code can be programmed within 7.5 seconds of pressing button on last remote transmitter. To exit program mode, press keyless entry keypad buttons 7/8 and 9/0 simultaneously, or wait 7.5 seconds for GEM to exit automatically.
