The GHOST CONTROLS® 5-Button Premium Remote Transmitter is designed to operate your gate opener system, ensuring both safety and security. This remote must be programmed to the gate opener system before it can be used.

Programming to Gate Controller

To program the remote to the gate controller:

Enter Learn Remote Mode: Press and hold the "LEARN XMTR" button on the gate system controller. The gate alarm will sound, and the "LEARN XMTR" LED on the system controller will stay on, indicating it's in Learn Remote mode for 10 seconds. If no valid remote signal is received within this time, the controller will exit Learn Remote mode.
Program a Button: While the gate controller is in Learn Remote mode, press and hold either Button 1 or Button 2 on the remote for 2 seconds. The gate controller alarm will beep or the gate will begin moving.
Confirmation: Release the button. The "LEARN XMTR" LED on the system controller will turn off, confirming that the new transmitter's ID has been saved.
Test the Transmitter: Press and release the programmed button. The transmitter LED will blink, indicating it's transmitting a GhostCode™ signal. Each press of the button will cycle the gate through OPEN-STOP-CLOSE-STOP-OPEN. The LED will flash rapidly during transmission, which lasts approximately 20 seconds to conserve battery life.

Adding an Additional Remote Transmitter

This process allows you to program a new "Learning Remote" (Remote B) using an already programmed "Teaching Remote" (Remote A).

Enter Learning Mode: On Remote B, press and hold the "Learn" button for at least 3 seconds, or until its LED turns on. Remote B's LED will stay on, indicating it's in Learning Mode.
Initiate Teach Mode: On Remote A, press and hold either Button 1 or Button 2. The LEDs on both Remote A and Remote B will flash, indicating Remote A is in Teach Mode and Remote B is in Learn Mode.
Program Remote B: While the LEDs are flashing, press and release the corresponding button (Button 1 or Button 2) on Remote B. Remote B's LED will turn off, confirming that the button is now programmed to operate the same gate as Remote A.

Cloning/Copying Button IDs

You can clone the ID from one button to another on the same remote.

Clone/Copy Button 1's ID to Button 2's:

Enter Learning Mode: Press and hold the "LEARN" button on the remote for at least 3 seconds until its LED turns on. The remote's LED will stay on.
Confirm Learning Mode: Release the "LEARN" button. The LED will remain on.
Send Button 1's ID: Press and release Button 1. The LED will start flashing (2 flashes per second), indicating it's sending Button 1's ID.
Accept ID on Button 2: Press and release Button 2. The LED will turn off, confirming that Button 1's ID has been accepted by Button 2. Both buttons should now operate the same gate.

Clone/Copy Button 2's ID to Button 1's:

Enter Learning Mode: Press and hold the "LEARN" button on the remote for at least 3 seconds until its LED turns on. The remote's LED will stay on.
Confirm Learning Mode: Release the "LEARN" button. The LED will remain on.
Send Button 2's ID: Press and release Button 2. The LED will start flashing (2 flashes per second), indicating it's sending Button 2's ID.
Accept ID on Button 1: Press and release Button 1. The LED will turn off, confirming that Button 2's ID has been accepted by Button 1. Both buttons should now operate the same gate.

PartyMode® (Hold Open) Function

PartyMode® allows the gate to remain open. This function can be enabled or disabled via the remote. The gate will stay in PartyMode® until disabled or the power button on the Control Box is cycled.

To Enable PartyMode®:

Initiate PartyMode® Entry: Press and hold the "Party" button on the remote until its LED turns on. The remote's LED will stay on, indicating it's about to enter PartyMode®.
Confirm PartyMode®: Release the "Party" button. The LED will turn off. The main system controller will enter PartyMode®, opening the gate to its full open position if not already there. All other controls (keypads, other remotes) will be ignored, though acknowledged with two beeps from the gate alarm.

To Disable PartyMode®:

Initiate PartyMode® Exit: Press and hold the "Party" button on the remote until its LED turns on. The remote's LED will stay on, indicating it's about to exit PartyMode®.
Confirm PartyMode® Exit: Release the "Party" button. The LED will turn off. PartyMode® will be disabled, and if AUTOCLOSE was previously enabled, the gate will close automatically.

Gate System Controller Diagnostic Mode

The Diagnostic Mode function activates diagnostic indicators (LEDs and/or alarm codes) on the gate controller. This is useful for troubleshooting. To conserve battery power, the main controller indicators are typically off when the gate is idle for more than 60 seconds (except for UL-325 entrapment protection requirements). Enabling Diagnostic Mode will turn these indicators on for 5 minutes without needing to operate the gate.

Testing Your Gate System Controller

The "Test" button on the remote indicates the status of the gate system controller battery, not the remote's internal CR2032 battery.

To Test Your Gate System Controller:

Initiate Test Mode Entry: Press and hold the "Test" button on the remote until its LED turns on. The remote's LED will stay on, indicating it's about to enter Test Mode.
Confirm Test Mode: Release the "Test" button. The LED will turn off. The gate system controller will use the gate alarm to indicate the battery status:
- 1 Beep: Battery is good.
- 2 Beeps: Battery is low.

Generating a New Transmitting Key Code

Each GHOST CONTROLS® remote transmitter has a unique key code sequence. Generating a new key sequence will erase the previous one, requiring the remote to be reprogrammed to the gate opener.

To Generate a New Key Code:

Initiate New Code Generation: Press and hold both Button 1 and Button 2 simultaneously for 10 seconds on the remote until its LED turns on. The remote's LED will stay on, indicating it's about to generate a new code.
Confirm New Code Generation: Release both buttons. The remote's LED will remain on. Steps 2 and 3 must be completed within 5 seconds while the LED is lit.
Finalize New Code: Press and release either Button 1 or Button 2. The LED will turn off, confirming that the remote button pressed in this step is now generating a new code.
