Make sure you purchased a 893MAX Remote and not a 893LM Remote. They look the same but they are not. Feel free to send us pictures (RUclips@GarageDoorZone.com) of the front and back of your remote and we'll take a look at what you have.- Brian

Linear doesn't have a product but you could check out Amazon. There are a number of aftermarket garage door opener wi-fi connection products available. You might want to check out the eKyro Smart Garage Door WiFi Controller amzn.to/3z8CyLr We haven't tested or used this item but it has gotten a lot of positive reviews. Full disclosure, we're also an Amazon Associate so if you use our link we may earn a small commission. There are also a number of other products that may work the same or better. We have plans to test some of these items in the near future and will post a video with the results. Best of luck.

If you're experiencing range issues then check your operator and around your garage for CFL low energy light bulbs. When these bulbs aren't working properly they have been known to interfere with garage door opener radio receivers and could cause range issues. You could mount the radio receiver somewhere up closer to the header of the garage but you'd need to hook a transformer up to the receiver to supply power to it. You could also go with the MultiCode model 1099 which is a gate operator radio receiver and has stronger signal reception. Thanks for watching!

Make sure you have a new battery in the remote and the visor clip is removed. The keypad needs to receive a strong signal from the remote & it sounds like it's not doing that. Also, use the flat backside of the remote when moving it around in front of the keypad instead of the nose or tip of the remote and you may project a stronger signal. If none of that works then I'd recommend that you open the remote. Use a dime to separate the two halves of the remote and open it. Inside you'll see two small buttons on the green logic control board. Choose the button you wish to use to program and use the green logic control board without the remote case to program the keypad. This will give you the strongest signal to program the keypad. Good luck. - Brian

Curious why you are trying to hook up a Linear MDRU receiver to a Marantec Synergy 380? I've never attached an MDRU to a Synergy model operator so I'm not sure. You could try connecting the 2 wires from the MDRU to the back of the wall station. The wall station wires also go to 3 and 4 but maybe connecting to them will bypass an issue the logic board is having with the 2 MDRU wires being connected directly to 3 & 4.

@@Garagedoorzone Thank you for the response. Long story somewhat shorter, after much quoting from several companies, my several times repaired garage door opener (Lift Master) finally kicked the bucket and the cheapest replacement overall (with labor) was this Marantec as this company did sell Chamberlain/Lift Master units. The downside is it obviously won't work with MyQ app anymore since Chamberlain took away the Linear functionality. This was my first option and then I heard the integration was broken again. I was hoping to use this Linear switch to enable functionality of two separate remote clickers I bought for two cars in my household that don't have Homelink functionality. The universal clickers work with up to two different brands, however, Marantec being Marantec, they have a locked ecosystem. I was hoping to circumvent that by wiring this Linear MDR directly into the terminals because the Linear was able to respond to the universal remotes.

@@VivaLaTony06 So if I'm understanding you, you have two garage door operators and one's Marantec Synergy and the other is Liftmaster and you want to be able to control both of them with the 2-button universal remotes you have. Is that correct?

@@Garagedoorzone That is correct. Instead of having different remotes for each brand, I'd like to have one remote that controls both. It looks like it should be possible, but it's proving difficult

@@VivaLaTony06 Did you try attaching the wires directly to the wall station? Hindsight is 20/20 but it probably would've worked better to attach a Marantec radio receiver to the Liftmaster operator and then use the 2-button Marantec remote to control both. I'll test the MDRU on the Synergy operator when I get a chance and get back to you with the results. Perhaps there's something I'm not thinking of that may work.

You could try clearing out the code on the keypad & put fresh batteries in the keypad and your remote. Then try programming the keypad again. If you go to the 6:00 minute mark of the video we go thru the steps for clearing out the keypad codes. - Brian

I'm not sure what you mean by a different code. Each button on the remote typically has different codes unless they've been changed so both buttons are coded the same and work with the same operator. I'm assuming you have one 2-button remote and two Marantec operators. If that's the case then you can program the top button to one operator and follow the same instructions to program the bottom button to the 2nd operator.

There's a slot on the bottom of the remote. Take a dime or penny and stick it in that slot. Turn the coin like turning a key. The two halves of the remote will come apart allowing you access to the battery inside the remote.

The Synergy 270 video is on our list but it's not complete yet. In the meantime, you can check out our blog post where we explain how to program the first remote into the Synergy garage door opener model.

If you are referring to the wall station (that has the open/close button, light button & lock-out button) then the 1st thing to check is the wiring. Check the two wires going into the operator have not been removed. If you installed a new 75424 Radio Receiver to your operator then the two wires that go from that receiver to the operator go into the same terminals that the wall station use (#3 & #4). If the two wires from the wall station are not in terminals #3 & #4 then reconnect them to those two terminals along with the two wires from the receiver and the wall station should work again.

@@Garagedoorzone ohhh got it. Yea I took the wires out. Thank you so much

@@Powaup 👍Glad to help.

Are you asking about the overall length of the operator or what is called a 10' operator? There's a difference. For example, a 7' garage door operator is actually going to have an overall length of about 10'. While a 10' operator is going to be around 13' in overall length. So if you have a 7' operator on a 7' high garage door the overall length of the operator itself is going to be around 10'. That's why it's always important to measure the overall length of the belt when it's laid out on the floor so you get the correct belt and not the length of the operator. If you are asking if an actual 10' operator (which would be around 13' long) would ever be used on a 7' high garage door the answer is yes. It would be rare but there are some situations where it would make sense. For instance, if there was a beam or duct that was 10' back into the garage & it just happened to be right where the powerhead of the 7' opener would get mounted then it may make sense to use a longer 10' operator rail so the powerhead could be mounted on the other side of the obstruction. Hope this answers your question.

If the radio receiver is 40MHz (or 390MHz or 433MHz) and that's the only issue with your operator and you wish to continue using the operator & not have to purchase a whole new operator then consider installing a Marantec 75424 Radio Receiver Set. www.garagedoorzone.com/75424-Marantec-Garage-Door-Opener-Plug-In-Radio-Receiver-Set_p_58.html If you do go with the new 75424 receiver then check out our other video for installation and programming instructions: ruclips.net/video/H6C1KmvCltY/видео.htmlsi=6LgDIg2afOES4sZs

Yes, all of the new 878MAX Keypads come from the factory with a battery.

Thanks for watching the video! We hope that you found it useful.

No. The memory in the operators will typically hold the code of 12 remotes so unless you have more than that programmed to your operator it will just add the new remote to the memory.

Hi @Joan28101 I've never heard of a blue learn button. Feel free to email us a picture of your operator that shows the Learn button so we can help you determine the correct remote. You can email us at RUclips@GarageDoorZone.com

I've never heard of a Marantec 252. That being said, the Marantec operators hold the code of ONE remote. All additional remotes need to be programmed by copying the code of the programmed remote using the 3-prong programming connector. If you don't have any existing remotes then you can program a new remote directly into the operator without erasing any previous remotes that may have been stored in the operator. If this is done then the operator will automatically erase the previously stored remote code and store the new remote code in the operator.

Did you try replacing the battery in the keypad? That would be my first suggestion.

Are you asking if you can program a remote and a keypad into the same garage door operator? If so, the answer is yes.

Usually that indicates that the remote is a different frequency than the radio receiver or the radio receiver is bad. Depending on which model of operator you have you should find the receiver in a slot on top of the operator. Make sure that the frequency printed on the back of the remote (and it has to be a Marantec remote) is the same frequency that's printed on the radio receiver. If they're not the same then it won't work. If the frequencies are the same then most likely the receiver is bad. If you have a Synergy model operator or a M4500e or 4700e (note the "e" on the end of the model number) then you can still get a replacement receiver. If you have a model that is older than that then you'll need to add an external radio receiver like the Marantec 75424 Receiver Set. You can watch an installation video we have on that here: ruclips.net/video/H6C1KmvCltY/видео.htmlsi=-UERqKiKgyoBJp8i

Beautiful. Your description is very precise. I have a M4500e operating at 315MHz. The new remote I purchased was at 304MHz. This resolved my original problem where the new remote does not show rapid flash. Since then I have found one of the original working remote. My question now is how to clone the other remotes(315MHz). Should I use the receiver to set the new remote or use the three prong to copy the code over?

@@williamchou2277 The operator holds the code for ONE remote. If you wish to add additional remotes then you will use the 3-prong programming connector to transfer the code from the programmed remote to the additional remote(s).

Hi @Granitelion I'm not sure what you mean by "the master". Can you elaborate?

how do you change the code itself to something if you dont' already have it. We bought a house and they don't know what it is. and we have no remotes.

@@Granitelion Sorry I'm still a little confused. Are you talking about the PIN number for a wireless keypad mounted on the outside door jamb? If that's the case and you have a Marantec operator with a 315MHz frequency radio receiver then you'll need a remote that is programmed to the operator in order to program the keypad (that's just how Marantec openers work).

I appreicate the quick response.@@Garagedoorzone Looks like I'll need to make sure it is 315mhz and then order a couple remotes. I thought I could change the 4 digit code from the back of the unit like many other garage doors.

@@Granitelion No problem. You'll find the frequency printed on the radio receiver. If you don't know what model of operator you have you can email some pics to us at Store@GargeDoorZone.com and we'll help you out, tell you how to find the receiver and what your options are.

Did the keypad pick up the code from the remote before you entered your PIN during programming? If you haven't done so we suggest putting a brand new battery in the remote before programming the keypad. Also remove the visor clip from the remote. If that doesn't work then open the remote. Inside you'll see the green circuit board. On the circuit board is the small remote button. Use that button (with the case of remote off) during the programming. Sometimes the case of the remote itself can cause interference.

@@Garagedoorzone You're implying that the plastic case on the remote is interfering with transferring the code to the keypad? It will open the door from several hundred feet away with the plastic on it but it won't work a couple inches from the keypad?? ok.

@@gymratt88 We offer suggestions that have worked for us. Other users have also found this to work in some instances. It may or may not be helpful but it's worth a shot if nothing else seems to be working.

Is the remote a Marantec branded remote? Is the remote the same frequency as the radio receiver? If the answer to both is yes then you can try pulling the radio receiver out, pushing it back in and try programming the remote again. If that doesn't work then the radio receiver is most likely bad & needs to be replaced.

Did you confirm that the radio receiver is 315MHz frequency? Is the remote you are trying to program a Marantec branded remote (or is it a generic/knock off brand)? If you do have a 315MHz receiver and Marantec remote then you might want to pull the receiver out, wait a minute, reinstall the receiver and then try programming the remote again.

@@Garagedoorzone yes, I pulled out the receiver and plugged it back in. It does say 315Mhz. The remote I purchased also says 315Mhz. I could actually pair them like when I held the remote button the garage head light (number 7) kept flashing. Then I pressed "P" again to finish. The remote still didn't work afterward.

@@spikyblueshell80 Is it a Marantec brand remote? During the programming, when you get to the #7 it should be blinking slowly and then when you press the remote button does the #7 flash rapidly?

@@Garagedoorzone yes the remote is marantec brand. and it happened like what you said (slow blink then fast blink when I pressed the remote button). Then I pressed P to finalize . The remote still didn't open the garage door. I don't know what I missed.

@@spikyblueshell80 When you press the "P" button to complete the programming do all of the lights illuminate and go out in a circle? Also, check your wall station - is the LED light on the wall station glowing solid or is it slowly blinking?

Sorry to hear that. If you have a Marantec 315MHz frequency remote and you've confirmed that the operator has a 315MHz frequency radio receiver and the operator won't accept the code of the remote then most likely the radio receiver is bad and needs replaced.

Yes and no. If you only have one remote then the answer is no, it's not possible. If you happen to have 2 remotes then it is possible. You would connect the two remotes and then transfer the code from the top button of Remote 1 to the top button on Remote 2. After you do that, you could then transfer the code from the top button on Remote 1 to the bottom button on Remote 2 and then transfer the code from the top button on Remote 2 to the bottom button on Remote 1. Sounds confusing but in the end you would have all 4 buttons (2 on each remote) programmed to the same operator.
