How to program a Genie keypad

These steps are for current Genie openers with a square PROGRAM/SET button. It takes about a minute. You'll need a step ladder.

  1. Make sure the keypad's backlight is off.
  2. Put the opener in programming mode: hold PROGRAM/SET until the round LED is blue, then release.
  3. Type your chosen PIN on the keypad.
  4. Press the UP/DOWN key slowly 3–4 times until the opener runs.

After programming: test the safety reverse. Put a piece of wood or a roll of paper towels flat under the door and close it. The door should touch it and go back up. If it doesn't, don't use the opener until it's fixed.
