Today I learned something about Wayne Dalton Wizard (Challenger) garage door openers: Some of them can use the Multi-Code remote control, because the internal (built-in) receiver in the machine uses a frequency of 300 Mhz, and programs with 10 dipswitches. Hooray for those lucky souls who have a Wayne Dalton 2113 or 2115 that can use the Multi-Code transmitters (remote controls).

Unfortunately, there are many of those Wayne Dalton model 2113 or 2115 machines that use a different frequency that is unsupported by any current remote control manufacturers that I am aware of. There is hope for those owners, however: Multi-Code makes what is called an 'external' receiver that by-passes the internal receiver and still operates the garage door. When one of these is attached to the model 2113 or 2115 operating on a different frequency from 300 Mhz, the same Multi-Code remote control transmitter can then be used and programmed to the new external receiver, so it will open that garage door.

This is good news for those owners since they now can continue to use those older machines until they wear out. My friends at garagedoorsupplyco.com , an online wholesaler, can set you up with either option at a fantastic price.
