LiftMaster 375UT / 375LM Remote Control
375UT
"Universal" Remote

Liftmaster brand "magic" remote programming:
The Liftmaster 375UT handheld/visor mount remote control has two different methods of programming to any compatible  garage door operator (gdo), either by learn button or by DIPswitch programming. Each new remote comes with a set of instructions on how to program. With these "magic" remote devices, you need to pay very close attention to choose the correct method and follow each indicated step carefully, and in order.

First step is to open the front of the remote. If you are programming a DIPswitch gdo, set the switches inside the remote now, according to instructions. If not, proceed to step 2, which is to briefly press the 'program' button inside the remote. Then follow any other instructions specific for your machine. If you are programming to a 'learn button' type gdo, you should push the LEARN button at this time, and release it within about one second. The 'program mode' indicator light on the gdo should let you know it is ready to receive a new remote.

After that, the instructions ask you to push the button on the front of the remote you are attempting to program a certain number of times according to which make and model of gdo you have. Pick the correct one, or the remote will not synchronize with the gdo. After you have pushed the button the right number of times (from one to as many as about 20X), and hopefully heard a click in the motor unit (gdo) and/or saw the gdo light blink, don't be tempted to push that button just one more time for good luck. Push the 'program' button on the inside of the remote once again to take the remote out of program mode. The next time you press the button you have programmed on the front of the remote, the gdo should operate.

As always, I recommend you start with the garage door in the down position. If you have any problems call my friends at www.Liftmaster-store.com. Their phone number is 888-880-8821

Next time I will go over some tips about the Liftmaster 387LM Universal Wireless Keypad --actually, I didn't take time until early January 2016...
